Earlier this month fellow artists, personalities and beauty influencers were invited to the exclusive #JloXinglot SA press event, and this is what we got up to.
Before I jump into it, if you've been living under a rock or have recently been through a social media detox and have no idea that “Jenni from the block” collaborated with the Polish cosmetic brand, then check out my first press review over here >> GLOW like JLo and INGLOT
Dressed in our freshest threads' the INGLOT SA team was our gracious host for the evening and The Yard at the Silo District sheltered us from the chilly Cape Town air. Treated to endless Moët, yummy canapés and top quality photographer. Gayle Pullin, marketing manager, and Lana Pienaar, national trainer, led the evening with the full collab lowdown, product selection, inspiration, benefits and feature look.
The INGLOT team pulled out all the stops setting up two full product display stations to swatch, test and experiment with the entire J. Lo glow collection. Top favourites of the night were the 'lipglossy' range and all the highlighters.
Amongst all the excitement, lead artists re-created the featured Lopez makeup look, or look 1 of the campaign, on their Cape Town #jloxinglot representitive Qaanita Orrie. The iconic look was completed with an eye-catching red lip in Besame, generous coats of Viva Lash mascara and the signature glow was created with the loose highlight dust in Radiant.
WHAT'S IN THE COLLECTION?
The 70 piece collection features most of the brand's top sellers, but what makes this collection unique is the updated formulation, colour selection and the Freedom System palette design update. The packaging is wrapped in matte black with rose gold detailing with her signature Jennifer Lopez branding to complete the opulent essence of the collection.
