In news that makes 100% sense, JLo, of “wait, how is she 50 years old?” fame has launched her own skincare line simply named, “JLo Beauty.”

Women all over the globe have been trying to capture Jennifer Lopez’s forever youthful appearance, especially since 2019, when she portrayed a NYC stripper on Hustlers and performed an iconic pole dance as her introduction. The 51-year-old Latina told InStyle magazine that “my secret to great skin is what I call the five S’s: sleep, sunscreen, serums, supplements, and living a healthy, sane life, which in Spanish is called sana.”

On January 1, the line released its first products that include a cleanser, serum and sunscreen, among other products. “When I started delving more into skin care,” explained JLo. “I learnt that inflammation is what causes aging. You need to attack the inflammation with a great topical and a hydrating routine.”

The Boricua superstar also revealed the secret ingredient in some of her products: olive oil.

“My mom and aunts swear by olive oil to deliver a glow. The hero ingredient in JLo Beauty is a modernised version of olive oil, called the Olive Complex. It’s a combination of ingredients derived from extra-virgin olive oil, fermented oil, leaf extract and squalane,” she said. “It gives the skin this weightless, all-day hydration, antioxidant protection, and an ageless radiance.”

The skincare line is Lopez’s latest entrepreneurial venture. Previous businesses include a clothing line, and a fragrance line, GLOW by JLo, which became one of the top selling perfumes upon its release in 2002.
