Today, Jennifer Lopez celebrates her 48th  birthday – although she looks half that age. The singer and actress flaunts a wrinkle-free complexion and a toned body that are the stuff of headlines as often as her professional accomplishments.

To mark the birthday of the woman who has grown from “Jenny from the block” to a world-renowned superstar, we have compiled a list of her beauty tips that only boost what is unquestionably her great genes.

Do not skimp on beauty sleep

“The number one tip is to always get enough sleep,” J.Lo said in a 2016 interview with InStyle. Although she aims for 10 hours of shuteye, with TV and studio engagements, eight is often the benchmark she doesn’t miss.

Reveal the beauty inside

“I also definitely think beauty comes from within – you have to keep your mind, soul, body and spirit in sync,” the singer told InStyle’s Kahlana Barfield Brown. Lopez dedicates 20 minutes a day to meditation.

No caffeine, cigarettes or alcohol

Lopez stays clear of morning joes and happy hours – they wreck the skin as it matures, she told  Today last year.

Eat green

J.Lo seems to love her veggies – asparagus, Brussel sprouts and kale – that carry proven health and beauty benefits.

Avoid the sun

In her youth, J.Lo shunned the sun. Today, her simple daily makeup routine begins with  sunscreen.

Invest in good makeup cleanser

Wearing heavy makeup onscreen, J.Lo counts on a great cleanser to remove dirt and moisturize her skin. When not at work, she opts for barely-there makeup, she told Allure back in 2011, “I'm a big believer in the basics. Less is more. I get my cleanser from my dermatologist.”

Head to the Gym 

Known for the spectacles she stages on tours, J.Lo doesn't skip gym days. "I work out regularly and love to dance," she told InStyle.

A beauty icon for over two decades, Lopez seem to follow a simple mantra that guides her skincare regimen. “And I always used to hear this saying, until you're about 25 or 30, you get the face God gave you,” she told Today. “After that, you get the face you deserve. And I always kind of thought, well I better be nice.”
