THE jewelled eyebrows at Chanel's autumn/winter 2012-13 show provided one of the biggest beauty talking points of the season - but how were they created?
"The inspiration for the make-up look came from a few key words and a sketch that Karl Lagerfeld provided: minerals, shading and eyebrows were the key words and the sketch showed a face with stone-lined eyebrows," explained Peter Philips - creative director of Chanel Make-up. "So the focus was on the eyebrows, which led me to interpret Karl's drawing and the 'mineral' emphasis by creating straight, graphic eyebrows."

Philips collaborated with the Maison Lesage to create sets of embroidered eyebrows in pinks, greens, blues and greys, which were glued over models' own brows.
"Each eyebrow consists of an anthracite grey sequin and pearl base, embroidered with several sorts and shades of mineral stones and crystals," said Philips.
