Menard has won widespread acclaim 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.
Menard will play an active role in creating compelling digital content to amplify Clinique’s color positioning. She will help develop and star in how-to videos that will give women quick, easy ways to achieve their desired makeup looks.
“Jenna is a perfect fit for Clinique and brings tremendous talent and insights to the brand,” said Lynne Greene, Global Brand President of Clinique, Origins and Ojon.
“She has a smile that lights up a room and a positive outlook on life – a quality we celebrate at Clinique,’ Greene added.
Jenna Menard said:
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.

The forever-fresh looking 20-year-old beauty says she’s excited and can’t wait to start shooting.
Apparently she doesn’t wear a lot of make-up… (but when you’re Emma Watson, I guess you just don’t have to!) “Although I don’t wear much make-up, I’m a big fan of Lancome products, especially their mascara,” Watson said.
Renowned celebrity photographer Mario Testino will be behind the camera to shoot Emma for print adverts. The word is that she will appear in TV commercials as well.
