Napoleon Perdis' Make Up Tips For Ladies Who Wear Glasses

21st OF July 2011

Napoleon Perdis has recently paired up with SpecSavers and given us some great tips on how to match our makeup to our eyewear!

RETRO GLAMOUR

Work the fashion flashback trend with soft yet polished frames a la Mad Men. Keep your make up look fresh and understated and show off your skin. Add a soft wash of colour to the eye, such as an ideal bronze/tan shade, which complements all coloured frames. Finish your look by adding a soft coloured lip-gloss for a kissable rose pout. Try:

Osiris Frames

NP Set Eye Palette Cairo

CLASSIC CHIC

Frames with ultra feminine shapes in deep jet black make for a sophisticated ‘‘Femme Fatale’’ look and reference classic screen sirens. Strike the balance between polished and sexy by creating an alluring eye look by applying eyeliner on the top and lower eye line and blend for a soft finish. Next, add three coats of mascara for statement eyelashes. Finish your look with the quintessential nude lip. Try:

Sabina Frames

NP Set Lip Gloss Mauritius

IT'S A BLING THING

Gold and silver tones are a subtle way to bring a little sparkle to your eyewear. If you’re channeling bling, then make bronzing your thing. Begin by applying a blusher to the apples of the cheek for a subtle glow. Team with a flirtatious pink pout and finish with an all over sweep of shimmering powder for a look that is California cool. Try:

NP Set Baked Powder Peach Set

EXPRESS YOURSELF

Make a statement with animal print or brightly coloured frames and enhance it even more with a bold lip colour. Reds are perfect as they suit all skin tones. Try:

Red or Dead Frames

NP Set Lipstick Rio

All Napoleon Perdis make up is available at the NP Set Makeup Bar Merrylands, NSW, Target and David Jones stores nationally and selected stockists throughout Australia.
