Early life
Her full name is Jennifer Leigh Selter, but her friends call her Jen. She was born on August 8, 1993, in Roslyn, New York, United States, but right now she lives in New York City. As far as her education background goes there isn’t much to go on; after finishing high school she went on to enroll into a cosmetology school and took a course on makeup. Jen decided not to attend college because she was of the opinion that college would be a waste of time unless you know exactly what you want to do with it and what you want to become.
She has a mother called Jill Weinstein, who has a different last name because she got remarried after divorcing her biological father, and a sister called Stephanie, who is also pretty much famous on Instagram.
