Good skin care is where that glow comes from. Exfoliate and apply a good moisturizer. Some of the BHA's and AHA's will help give you that look. I find products that include glycolic acid make my own skin glow.

Although makeup may help it is not the real reason she glows....it really has to do with her skincare...

No it's not.That is an illusion with makeup.How many women use good skincare and their skin doesn't glow like that.It's all makeup!

I think it depends on each person - some naturally glow - some need to fake it. Good skincare helps, but it doesn't help everyone. Same thing with diet and excercise, and the genes you were born with.

And then hire professional lighting specialists to follow you everywhere and a Photoshop expert and PR team to make sure no untouched image of you is ever published.

There are a lot of good highlighting products that can help. Some of my favorites are:

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector - comes in liquid and powder and is available in several colors

It Cosmetics Hello Light Luminizer - comes in a cream and a powder. The powder is SUPER glowy and not subtle. I prefer the cream.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders - various shades offer subtle to sparkly luminosity.

Burberry Fresh Glow Primer - gel-like formula, comes in two shades.

Fresh Cosmetics Freshface Glow primer in Twilight - cream

Make Up For Ever Uplight Face Luminzer Gel - also comes in a variety of finishes and shades

MAC Cosmetics has a lot of options for highlighter, including creams, liquids, pressed powders and loose powders. Some of their limited edition beauty powders offer a wonderfully subtle sheen, like Play it Proper.

I like to mix liquid, cream or gel illuminizers into my foundation for a dewy finish, but you can also apply over foundation and avoid areas where you might naturally have more shine or don't want to draw attention to. YouTube has lots of great videos on highlighting and contouring.

I'm sure that if you saw her in your local coffee shop, even J-Lo wouldn't have the J-Lo glow. When you see her, she's been professionally lit and/or photoshopped.

As Cindy Crawford once said, "I wish I looked like Cindy Crawford." People don't look like that out in the wild.

In my early 40's I used to apply Benefit High Beam, the pink original one, under my foundation. That would give me a nice glow. I also blended it with my foundation.

Thank you, All, for the great suggestions. I'm definitely going to look into a lot of them and see what I come up with. I'm excited to begin my quest.
