Freida Pinto made Vogue India's March 2009 cover - in my opinion, its one of the better covers that Vogue India has done in recent months and I think everyone needs a break from the constant stream of Bollywood actresses on the covers.
Here is Vanessa's makeup breakdown provided by her makeup artist:
Face:
Apply Neutrogena Healthy Skin Glow Sheers in Light to Medium to skin.
Add color to the cheeks by applying Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Blush in in Natural Apricot.
Add highlight to the cheekbones by applying Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Illuminator.
Eyes:
Apply Neutrogena 3-in-1 Concealer for Eyes in Medium underneath the eye to get rid of any dark circles.
Apply Nourishing Eye Duo in Fairy Dust, using the darker shade in the crease and then brushing the lighter shade over the entire lid up to the brow bone.
Apply Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara in Carbon Black.
Lips
Apply a combination of two pink moisture-infused lip colors – Neutrogena MoistureShine Lipstick SPF 20 in Angel’s Blush and Sheer Luck.
The makeup at Tuleh was inspired by Parisian women in the 1930s. Soft smoky eyes and mauve lips were the main focus of the look.
MAC Products used:
The models at Luca Luca were positively ladylike, in both clothing and beauty. I love the very dark, very precise lips on the models.
One of the most unique looks New York Fashion Week was at Zac Posen. Inspired by Napoleon's first wife Joséphine de Beauharnais, hair stylist Odile Gilbert for used L'Oreal Expansion Body Activating Mousse for volume and then swept hair high into a large chignon after it was teased at the roots. Gilber then used L'Oreal Extreme Holding Spray to set the updo. Lastly, a braided headband with studs finished off the bouffant. 
Makeup artist Lucia Pieroni went for a fresh orange lip on models by using MAC Morange Lipstick. Pieroni rimmed eyes with black pencil and used MAC Blackberry Eye Shadow on the lid. The eyes were finished with false lashes.
Whenever I think of Ralph Lauren ads, I consistently think of fresh, classic beauty. And for the beauty looks at Ralph Lauren's fall 2009 show, the classic English rose beauty was the inspiration.
Hair stylist Guido Palau attempted slightly imperfect chignons for the hair. He applied a thickening spray to hair and blew it dry. He then finger-combed hair back and gathered it into a ponytail at the nape of the neck, securing it with knotted black cord. Palau then twisted the hair up into a loose bun, pinning to hide the elastic. Lastly, he pulled several pieces of hair out of each chignon for an imperfect look.

Not surprisingly, our new First Lady, Michelle Obama, was the beauty inspiration at one of the fashion shows at New York Fashion Week '09 - Baby Phat. I found the Baby Phat look not only extremely pretty, but very wearable.
Makeup artist James Kaliardos used MAC Studio Sculpt Boundation on the skin and added a hint of MAC Pink Swoon Blush at the top of the cheekbones. Kaliardos used a sweep of MAC Drizzle Gold Eye Shadow across the lids, and added cocoa shadow on the brow bone to give the illusion of separation of the lid from the brow bone. Then, he added a hint of gold glitter on the inside corner of the eye for radiance and swept a very light coating of glitter across the lids to catch runway lights. Kaliardos also added individual false lashes for a natural, yet filled-out effect. He finished the eyes with lots of MAC Zoom Lash Mascara in Black. Finally, he applied MAC Lipglass in Partial to Pink to the lips.
At Nanette Lepore, a bohemian vibe was felt in the makeup and hair. "The inspiration was a traveler, wearing lots of layers of clothes — and a lot of gold makeup," said makeup artist Polly Osmond for MAC Cosmetics. 
At Badgley Mischka, makeup artist Tom Pecheux, working for MAC Cosmetics applied matte foundation to models' skin. On th eyes, Pecheux created an ombré effect with navy blue shimmer shadow and pale gray shadow, with a hint of gold pencil to the undereye area. Pecheux then added lots of black mascara and a hint of pale pink blush. Lastly, he applied a nude lip pencil overlaid with a lavender gloss.
Just like its spring beauty look, the fall '09 beauty look at Carolina Herrera was one of my favorites! Just look at the pretty hair do' below - its simple with a special twist!
Orlando Pita first blow dried hair straight and then spritzed hair with T3 Renew Dry Conditioner. Pita sprayed his hands with T3'Control Hairspray and finger-combed hair back to create a little volume. After putting hair up, he added visible copper hairpins everywhere in decorative patterns and intermittently placed small bronze flowers throughout the hair.
Look!! Its Lakshmi working her glow!! Makeup artist Diane Kendal for MAC Cosmetics lined the waterline with a nude shimmer pencil and added white pearlized MAC Pigment on the browbone and the top of the cheekbones. Kendal used a peach MAC Mineralize blush and finished with MAC Twig lipstick layered with a berry MAC Dazzleglass shade. I am loving the muted mauve lip color on Lakshmi.

Perhaps a result of the Mad Men craze, the beauty at DKNY was inspired by fifties glamour.
Makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury for MAC Cosmetics used thick black eyeliner on both the upper and lower lashes - slightly thicker on the top and squared off at the outer corners for a twist. She finished with tons of black mascara. Tilbury then added rose blush to the top of the cheekbones and applied a rosy cream blush to stain lips.
Black Black Chromaline – lining the top lashline in a thick rectangular shape extended out past the outer corner of the eyes.
Ebony Eye Pencil – applied to the water line.
Black Prolash Mascara – applied to top lashes only.
Fling Eye Brows – drawn into brows to slightly define the shape and add a bit of an arch.
Face:
Face and Body Foundation – smoothed on to even out skin tone in a sheer application.
Blot powder – brushed over the t-zone to diminish extra shine.
Laid Back Blushcreme – blended high on the cheek bones.
Lips:
Laid Back Blushcreme – patted on to lips for a sheer stain.
Hair stylist Eugene Souleiman dampened models' hair with Wella Professional Curl Artist and blew hair out with a round brush. He then sprayed roots with Wella Professional Ocean Spritz to create volume and texture. Souleiman parted hair in the middle, took sections from each side and knotted the sections in the middle twice. He used black cord to secure the knots.
For present day Barbie, makeup artists gave models pink cheeks and topped skin with Stila Illuminating Liquid Foundation. They applied Stila Giggle Lip Vinyl to lips for a pink lip, Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Eye Liner to eyes and false lashes. I love the pretty pink lips and cheeks! Orlanda Pita teased hair for an extremely voluminous look and finished the look with T3 Plump and Control Hairspray.
For Barbie of the past, makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury created a fifties inspired black cat eye and a red glossy lip, putting to rest the idea that you can't do both extreme eyes and extreme lips in the same look! Tilbury used Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Eye Liner on the eyes and Stila Strawberry Lip Glaze on the lips. Pita gave models an ultra high wrapped ponytail and slicked back tresses with strong, straight bangs. 
For future Barbie, Tilbury went all out on the models' faces with glitter and sequins in purples, blues and fuschias. She used Stila Smudge Pot in Wisteria and Cobalt on eyes and Stila Praline Lip Glaze on lips. Tilbury covered eyebrows with bold violet feathers and lilac gemstones. Besides all the color, Tilbury applied Stila Tinted Moisturizer, Stila Perfecting Concealer and Stila Sun Bronzer to skin. For hair Pita, created high buns wrapped in braided hair extensions.
