Mario Lopez got a little help from "makeup magic" after suffering an injury ahead of a television gig.

On Tuesday, Lopez, 50, took to Instagram to reveal that he suffered a "busted” eye during a jiu-jitsu session.

Two photos shared by the "Saved by the Bell" actor showed him sporting a black eye and facial swelling.

But Lopez was apparently undeterred by his injury as a third photo showed him all glammed up and looking flawless on set later in the day. 

He wrote on his post, "...a little makeup magic and just like that...we're back on TV!"

This comes months after the "Access Hollywood" star collaborated with e.l.f. Cosmetics for the launch the brand's limited-edition Sticky Shop merch, drawing inspiration from the viral Power Grip Primer.

In addition to the e.l.f. team-up, Lopez entered the world of fashion, working on his own line of sneakers.

His multifaceted career hasn't overshadowed his role as a family man. The actor recently celebrated Thanksgiving with his wife Courtney Lopez and their three children, Santiago, 4, Dominic, 10, and Gia, 13, in a cozy family setting.

Recently, in an Instagram video shared by Lopez, he talked about their unique holiday traditions, emphasizing togetherness as a key element.

The Lopez family marked the occasion with a mix of classic turkey and Italian and Mexican dishes, accompanied by "good drinks" and "good movies."

"We really don't have any staples other than obviously we're all together as a family. We just make sure we're all together,” Lopez said.

Lopez and his family maintain a laid-back approach to holidays. As reported by E! News, the couple prefers to keep it casual, with Courtney revealing, "We're in sweats. We don't get dressed up."
