Get The Look: Napoleon Perdis For David Jones

Napoleon Perdis created 3 exclusive looks for last week’s David Jones A/W fashion launch, and this is his favourite. Here’s how to get the look straight from the makeup maestro himself.
“Confession: This makeup look is my favourite of the three,” says Napoleon. “It’s based around my current colour collection, Metalika, which is a play of both heavy and soft metal hues. This girl is just a gorgeous glamazon; strong yet soft, glamorous but not intimidating, slightly intense but not overwhelming. It’s really all about the eyes – and some stunning but still soft metallic accents which is totally on trend right now. Skin is radiant, as though the girl has been lit from within. Eyes are accentuated with black liquid liner and a smoky, espresso shadow and then played up a little by mixing metallic shades of Loose Dust and cream eyeshadow to highlight the inner corners of the eye. A dense false lash helps to anchor all that detail. A shimmery nude nail and a totally natural, barely-there glossy lip completes the story. It’s a look that’s definitely rock inspired but we’ve really worked on that element of softness so it’s still super pretty.”
