The ‘2000s are back and so is Jennifer Lopez’s lip gloss from The Wedding Planner. Celebrity makeup artist and Stila founder Jeanine Lobell, who created J.Lo’s iconic shade for the 2001 romantic comedy, revived it with a modern twist through her beauty brand, Neen.
The singer’s once cult-favorite hue has been reimagined with a clean, hydrating formula, but in the same universally flattering rosy nude shimmer.
“I went full Nancy Drew to find an old lip gloss to color match. … It’s such a classic that works for everyone,” Lobell tells ET.
Beyond resurrecting the nostalgic product, Lobell, whose A-list clients have included Jessica Alba, Natalie Portman, Penélope Cruz, Gwen Stefani, Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie, Kirsten Dunst, and Kate Hudson since the aughts, is embracing the return of most throwback looks.
“Memorable moments and products from many eras never go out of style. … I knew how to do the beauty filter before it existed,” the makeup pro says.
“I’ve always been known for making my girls look like they have great skin and bringing out their natural beauty, without being too overdone.”
These days, Lobell is leaning into just that with velvety, real foundation finishes over glossy looks.
“I’m seeing a small swing towards more matte skin and a step away from glazed skin,” she notes.
But one fad the entrepreneur is firmly leaving in the past? Skinny eyebrows.
“A friendly reminder as someone who survived the over-plucked brows trend is that they never really grow back,” she warns.
