When embracing winter whites from the neck down, florid notes worn above strikes an eye-catching balance—at least in the world of Jennifer Lopez. The pop star took to the streets of Los Angeles last night having supplemented an icy ensemble with a dusting of burgundy eyeshadow that edged outside lid lines to dynamic effect.

J Lo s menu of well-honed signatures—a super-slicked updo and a pair of oversized, opulent gold hoops—offered some familiar aesthetic architecture, which served as a solid frame to the bricked makeup moment. One part shimmery smoky eye, one part unexpected pressing of pigment, Lopez s eyeshadow plotted with her luminous skin and swipe of pale pink lipgloss to exude effulgence. A master of high-impact outfits and date night beauty alike, it s no surprise that her take on fire and ice skews glamorous, sultry, and instantly aspirational. The lesson? To combat the season s chilly temperatures, infuse your makeup look with a wash of burnished warmth.
