Napoleon Perdis is one of my favourite makeup ranges. Spearheaded by the wonderfully named Australian Napoleon:

Napoleon Perdis picked up his first brush at the age of 13 to help his glamorous mother primp for a soiree. Since then the self-taught makeup artist has long dreamed of spreading his glamour gospel. A native of Sydney, Australia, and now based in Los Angeles, Perdis has always sought to democratize the art of makeup, transforming runway and red carpet trends to reality and colour-matching for women of all ages and skin tones.

Till the end of June 2010, Farmers is doing a deal whereby you get the new Napoleon makeup book “Forever Flawless” about looking good at any age for $49.90 AND get a free one hour makeover.

This weekend the deal is even sweeter as there is 15% of all Napoleon makeup at Farmers (as well as some products at even more reduced prices) – and that includes the book.

I popped in today for a lunch hour makeover and was pleased with the results. The consultant explained each step of the process well and there’s definitely elements to pick up and run with. I’ve learned how to apply mascara to get more volume (flick your brush out to the sides), some new contouring tips, and how to do a smoky bronze eye.

Viva Napoleon.
