Clinique appoints make-up artist Jenna Menard to key colour role

Clinique’s first Global Colour Artist, Jenna Menard


US. Clinique has named make-up artist Jenna Menard as its first Global Colour Artist. Described as a rising star in the beauty industry, she is charged with bringing a modern perspective to the brand.

Menard has received widespread recognition for her make-up artistry through her work in top magazines globally, with her celebrity clientele, and from the runways of the world’s fashion capitals.

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 aim to give women quick, easy ways to achieve their desired make-up 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,” noted Lynne Greene, Global Brand President of Clinique, Origins and Ojon. “Her eye for creating make-up looks that accentuate the natural beauty of every woman, coupled with her passion to build self-confidence through make-up, 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 honoured to join the Clinique family,” said Menard. “My earliest memories about make-up are of Clinique make-up – 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 make-up or doing a cookie-cutter make-over. 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.”
