Bobbi Brown For Yigal Azrouel F/W 2010 At Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week

Bobbi Brown designed the look for the debut of the Yigal Azrouel F/W 2010 collection. According to makeup artist Wendy Rowe, the look included "youthful, fresh but chic makeup with heavy focus on brows." The products used on the face were chosen to create texture on the complexion to reflect Azrouel's heavily textured garments. Skin was bronzed, and there was a particular focus on the cheeks. The eyes were soft and defined using brown and beige neutral tones. The overall look for the makeup was natural and monotone, with a complementary nude lip. Strength was demonstrated in a sharp, linear, defined brow.

Products used:

Skin: Hydrating Face Cream ($50), Hydrating Eye Cream ($45), Foundation Stick ($40), Creamy Concealer ($22), Corrector ($22)

Eyes: Suede Long-Wear Cream Shadow ($22) all over lid, Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Sepia Ink ($21) applied lightly and smudged on upper and lower lashline

Cheeks: Bronzing Powder ($40)

NB: The look contains some products that are set to be released for F/W '10. Shade names and prices may still need to be confirmed.

As Bobbi puts it so nicely, nude make-up "really never goes out of style; It's polished, sophisticated, and always looks modern." With that in mind, her Nude Collection for Fall makes use of colors that enhance a woman's skin-tone and bring out her inner beauty. All of the Bobbi Brown shades being introduced can be used to transition a look from day-time to night-time.

Here is what you can expect to find in this new limited edition collection:

Nude Eye Palette ($60) - This palette features three eyeshadow duos in exclusive colors providing a range of shadow finishes - soft matte, lightly pearlized, and metallic high-shimmer. The six shades are: Navajo Eyeshadow, Pebble Metallic Eyeshadow, Chino Eyeshadow, Beige Linen Shimmer Wash Eyeshadow, Maple Sugar Metallic Eyeshadow, and Caviar Eyeshadow.

Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Caviar Ink ($21) - This shade is a very rich, deep brown.

Shimmer Brick in Nude ($38) - This Shimmer Brick features five shades of pure pearl pigments: pink, gold, bronze, beige, and caramel. Mixed together, the color creates a nude glow.

Creamy Lip Color ($22 each) - There are four new shades of this highly moisturizing lipstick being offered - Rose Bud, Rose Garden, Soft Blush, and Twilight. All are pink or brown nudes.
