Clinique, one of the world’s leading cosmetics brands, names makeup artist Jenna Menard as its first Global Color Artist. Menard brings a decade of expertise and a modern perspective to Clinique. Menard has received recognition for her makeup artistry through her work in top magazines globally, with celebrity clientele, and from the runways of the fashion capitals of the world.

In this newly created position, Menard will play an active role in creating compelling digital content to amplify Clinique’s colour positioning. She will help develop and star in how-to videos that will give women quick, easy ways to achieve their desired makeup looks. Additionally, she will work closely with the Clinique Product Development, Marketing and Education teams to inspire the development of new products, trends and application techniques.

“Jenna is a perfect fit for Clinique and brings tremendous talent and insights to the brand,” says Lynne Greene, global brand president of Clinique, Origins and Ojon. “Her eye for creating makeup looks that accentuate the natural beauty of every woman coupled with her passion to build self-confidence through makeup is inspiring to women around the world. She shares Clinique’s philosophy of empowering women to feel and look their best every day. She has a smile that lights up a room and a positive outlook on life – a quality we celebrate at Clinique.”

“I’m honored to join the Clinique family,” says Jenna Menard. “My earliest memories about makeup are of Clinique makeup – it is all that my mother used. I love that the values of the brand are similar to my values as an artist. My philosophy is to make women feel beautiful without putting on too much makeup or doing a cookie-cutter makeover. It’s about playing up a woman’s individual beauty, helping her to look and feel beautiful. That’s true whether I’m working with one of my celebrity clients or a friend.”
