The key to recreating Chanel's Spring 2010 Couture look in two easy steps


A key part of the beauty look that came down the Paris runway at Chanel’s Spring 2010 Couture (see, above) was a sexy, subtle eye, as created by Peter Phillips, Chanel’s global creative director for makeup. The two essential products for recreating this look are Chanel’s Ombres Contraste Duo and Inimitable Intense, a truly timeless eye shadow and a sassy yet sophisticated mascara.
The Ombres Contraste Duo comes in six, demure, almost half tones, which can be used in a multitude of ways. Applied on its own or as a base, the creamy texture of the light shade helps smooth and light up the eyelid. Dabbed onto the corner of the eye for a touch of sparkle, it enlarges and lights up the eye. The matte, dark shade is always applied to the outer corner of the eye, sculpting and giving a real touch of depth and a little drama. Depending on the intensity, the eyes can be subtle or subversive, as dictated by your mood.
The other part of the Spring 2010 make up puzzle is Inimitable Intense mascara, which takes the brand’s famous Inimitable mascara that one step further. Think extreme volume, absolute length, bold curl and ever-perfect definition to make your lashes your finest asset. Oh, and this little number comes in four shades of intense black… spectacular.
