Our Perfectly Nude Fashion Week Face... May 12, 2010

When it comes to makeup I personally always love a effortlessly, barely there look. I think that its important to use the best quality products available and use them to flatter the complection, its the "less is more" theory.

When it came to the makeup direction for our fashion week show we wanted to use a makeup look that you could wear everyday.

We were very lucky to have the opportunity to work with the amazing team from Jane Iredale. They created a truly effortless and elegant look with their leading mineral makeup.

All you girls in the know will be very familiar with Jane Iredale products and will have heard of the new spring Perfectly Nude range. Its composed of flattering colors that know how to multitask, this timely collection will get you ready for a spring fling with ease.

We LOVE Jane Iredale because a healthy complexion is the most beautiful cosmetic you can wear.

We sat down with our amazing makeup director Celeste David to ask her what products and methods she used so you at home can create the natural look for yourself.
