Napoleon Perdis


Napoleon Perdis, Australia’s leading makeup artist, has always sought to transform runway to reality, to demystify the art of makeup, and to bring out the celebrity in every woman. Since picking up his first makeup brush, at age 8 to help his mother primp for a soiree, the self-taught makeup artist has dreamed of having his own cosmetics empire. Growing up in Sydney, Australia, and now based in Los Angeles, he has transformed his dream into reality.

Napoleon Perdis’ rich palette of colors and trans-generational approach to makeup has driven the brand into a category all its own. In addition to its extensive colour stories, Napoleon Perdis offers superior foundations (in numerous skin tones), sophisticated mascaras, a body and safe tanning line, top-notch tools of the trade and even cult products like Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Primer. Fun, flirty and ultra-feminine, the Napoleon Perdis prestige makeup collection infuses classic Hollywood looks with modern-day wit and whimsy, elevating each woman’s god-given beauty. Celebrity fans include Gemma Ward, Hilary Duff, Debra Messing, America Ferrera, Paula Abdul and Nicolette Sheridan.

The Napoleon Perdis philosophy is not dictated by fashion – it’s about celebrating natural beauty, a feel-good message of female empowerment, and products that have built-in educators and pro-tips. The butterfly symbolizes something of great value to Napoleon Perdis: The choice of COLOUR and the FREEDOM to discover yourself through experimentation.
