A silk-finish powder foundation compact 3-in-1 that conceals, covers and sets.

avail @ Napoleon Perdis

Review:

I have this in color #2.. This slim compact carries a seriously lovely 3 in one foundation inside. I applied this with my T. LeClerc foundation brush. This is so light in texture and feel but also highly pigmented. So the 3 in 1 is clear, you can go a little heavier wear you need it and lighter wear you don't.. It's got a nice matte finish.. Not like Mommy Dearest Joan Crawford's but a light matte, meaning that there is still some luminescence but not enough to look really dewy.. It feels like you are wearing nothing at all. I didn't need to touch up all day and I found that it doesn't ride in the lines. I also used this as a finishing powder over another foundation, to find that is works really well that way also. The color is a great match for my skin.. The compact is easy to work and potable so you can bring it along and not fear needing a touch up, since you get all 3 in 1 in this little gem. I did layer a little more around the eye area for more coverage and it looks fab.. I can’t wait to see what else Napoleon has up his sleeve..
Nice coverage, blendable, smooth matte finish and light

I was beyond joyous to try Napoleon's "London Night" Chandelier Shine Nail Polish which is a beautiful black shiny color. Not matte....not too high shine -- It's PERFECT for anyone who wants to wear the new black look on their nails (which looks best on a shorter nail bed).

Chanel has always been my favorite nail polish because it's next to impossible to chip but Napoleon Perdis' fared extremely well for a week long run. It didn't chip at all, I merely had to touch up the ends very slightly about 4 days into wear. Took me about 15 seconds to touch up. Drying time is great and 3 coats gave the perfect black color without any streaks.

5 :D :D :D :D :D

London Night isn't on the site <yet> but will be any day now!
$12.00/bottle

Napoleon Perdis Barely Blushing

Napoleon Perdis Barely Blushing
"Hold court from cheek to cheek" - Napoleon

Napoleon Perdis, Australia's leading makeup artist, is all about transforming runway to reality to bring out the celebrity in you.

This unique formula glides on for an ultra-sheer, believable blush.
Smooth on cheeks blending quickly with sponge or fingertip. Doubles as a great lip stain. Dab it on and turn the temperature up!

I have this gel blush in Barely Rouge which compliments my pink undertoned skin to a "T" ! I'll be honest, it took a couple of practice runs for me to get the application right having never used gel blush before. I found that the 1 finger method is best. One of the really cool things about this product is that you can layer it to get it as deep as you want. I also tried it out as a lip stain and it gave my lips a "just bitten" look (which I loved!). This is definitely staying in my makeup bag. On a side note: I wouldn't recommend this for people with moderate or severe acne as it builds up on pimples, making them pink. I also love Napoleon Perdis as he supports the National Ovarian Cancer Network Australia. :D

“Bling and Chandelier Shine, so sophisticated and devine” - Napoleon




I have had the pleasure of wearing this nail polish! It is not as dark as it looks below. Just a little bit lighter. Color is called Empress.

I apply this to my hands and toes. This wears well and is so shiny with out a top coat. I adore this polish and am very happy to have it in my rotation! This looks awesome on the toes with sandles!!
High :D s !!

Review:

I have this in #2 swatch above.. The color isn't exact but it definitely has a yellow base.. I can have very pink tones to my skin and I can see that the yellow really does give a lovely porcelain finish to my skin, the yellow reacts with the pink and neutralizes it.... I love the container, the tube easily dispenses a tiny amount.. This foundation goes on smoothly and sets pretty quickly.. I can see why no powder is nec. it really finishes to a velvety look that is a bit dewy.. I usually need to have a little something over my foundation so I don't get shiny but didn't bother to see how Napolean's stood up.. I kept a close eye throughout the day and the finish stood up, I wasn't shiny but remainer to look dewy and velvety.. I really like the look this gives me, it's very natural and feels weightless.. This is a great line with some really fun products that deliver great results!! The finish isn't like lifeless either, it's for all the living dolls out there, not ones who want to be put on a shelf!

"Plump up the Volume" - Napoleon

Spice up your life with Love Bite Lip Plump where big is beautiful and full is fabulous! Contains Capsicum Pepper and Cinnamon to stimulate and swell lips, while Menthol soothes and Jojoba smoothes. US $22.00



This Lip Plump does everything it promises to do, it certainly gives the illusion of fuller lips. I love the way it goes on and the packaging is absolutely adorable!

I was pleasantly surprised because it really does make my lips look significantly fuller. I actually really like this product when worn with my favorite lipliner!
It gives me beautiful lips that are not too obviously glossy and it lasts long and it tastes and smells great. I will definitely buy it again!
