Jennifer Lopez is the latest star to dip her toes into the viral latte make-up trend. Getting her caffeine fix on the day of her 54th birthday, the superstar shared a picture of herself in her dressing room surrounded by a rail of clothes, with a preview of her beauty look for that evening. Masterminded by celebrity make-up artist Marie Phillips, the singer opted for a monochromatic statement in creamy coffee hues, taking the trend to new heights with a retro ombré lip.
An effortless take on summer bronze, the latte make-up look was brought to critical attention courtesy of global trendsetter Hailey Bieber, who recently switched up her signature high-shine glazed doughnut aesthetic for a different morning treat. But the trend actually dates back to 2018, thanks to content creator Rachel Rigler, who posted a TikTok video referencing the earlier work of make-up artist Tanielle Jai.
Focusing solely on muted shades of browns and nudes, and eschewing any hard edges, it’s an easy look to work this summer, and looks good on any skin tone, although you will need to adjust the shades, going deeper as skin tones get darker. If in doubt, follow Phillips’s latte look tutorial below.
