Tell us a bit about J'ouvert cosmetics?
To respond to our client's requests, we (Meridith Hypolite, a fashion and colour analysis advisor, and Ana Blaauw-Torres, Creative Director of J’ouvert) developed a unique tool for helping women create a total make-up look in a few easy steps; we assembled various products into colour mood collections, called the palettes. Soon we realized that to attain the subtlety, choice and quality we envisioned, we would have to start our own line. Finally, J'ouvert was born. J'ouvert (pronounced Jouvay in the warm French of the Caribbean) means I open the break of dawn’. It’s a time to explore, create and express your own individual style, be it through clothes or make-up.We conducted several years of hands-on research and testing, and have dedicated ourselves to developing simple, clear, coordinated make-up
both for women who have little knowledge of applying make-up and to the more experienced make-up users.

Where does the inspiration of carnival time come from?

What are the current cosmetic trends?
One of the current trends on the market right now is colour-blocking. It is a perfect way to become the artist of your own face and just have fun
with colours.
What colour palettes would you like to see in trend?
More bold colours to encourage women to slowly think outside the box.
What three products must a client have?
Must haves for every lady's hand bag are lip gloss, mascara and blush. This is what we call the "quickie", as these three products can enhance the face in a matter of minutes.
What significant things did you learn about cosmetics whilst you were
testing to creating the perfect products?
We learned and we truly believe that make-up should not appear to change the face beyond recognition but rather enhance its best features. That’s why all the background work has been done, so women can easily create their own look with little help from the experts. The perfect product for us is one that gives the opportunity to create a full range of expressions, from the most subtle effect to carnival wild.
