Face Charts

This past week, it was Fashion Week and, as you may know, many fashion designers and makeup artists come together and collaborate to bring a unique touch to the models modeling on the catwalk for this event. To honor fashion week, here are some of the face charts to give you readers ideas on the latest and greatest makeup colors, applications, and combinations for the spring 2010. Yes, that's right...SPRING. Why now when it's only fall 2009? Because all my readers are on top of their game ;). All these charts are specifically geared to be used with Bobbi Brown makeup, which can be found at Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, etc. However, to replicate these looks, you can just eye-ball some colors and use cheaper versions like from NYX, Almay, Loreal HIP, etc. Please do not distribute these images.

Spring at J. Mendel is about ethereal silhouettes and soft textures, so the makeup reflected this inspiration through clean, matte skin, light pink cheeks and lips, and an elongated smoky eye that is pretty, yet powerful.
