Why Skincare by a Makeup Brand Just Hits Different
Introduction: Why Skincare by a Makeup Brand Just Hits Different
Skincare aisles are full of promises — glow, hydration, anti-ageing, you name it. But if you’ve ever applied your favourite cream only to watch your foundation pill, peel, or slide right off by lunchtime, you know the truth: not all skincare plays well with makeup.
That’s where Napoleon Perdis does things differently. We didn’t just tack skincare onto our line-up. We built it from the same philosophy that’s guided our artistry for over 30 years: makeup should look effortless, feel comfortable, and be long-lasting.
The Problem With Most Skincare Under Makeup
Plenty of skincare works beautifully overnight. But under foundation? Not so much.
Heavy moisturisers can cause your base to slip or separate.
Silicone-heavy serums often lead to dreaded pilling.
Greasy or sticky textures mean your primer won’t grip, and your powder won’t set.
In short: your makeup ends up fighting your skincare, not working with it.
The NP Difference: Skincare Designed For Makeup
As a brand born backstage and on set, we know what it takes to make skin and makeup coexist. That’s why every NP skincare formula is:
Lightweight and layerable – hydrating without heaviness.
Fast-absorbing – no residue, no tackiness, no waiting game.
Tested with makeup – we don’t just ask, “does this hydrate?” We ask, “does this make foundation look better?”
It’s why our serums, like Radiance Renewal Hydrating Serum (Vitamin C + Hyaluronic Acid) and Radiance Regeneration Serum (Copper Peptide), deliver real skin benefits and double as the perfect prep step for your base.
Why It Matters?
Because beauty isn’t just skin-deep — it’s skin-first. When your skincare and makeup are in sync:
✔ Your foundation glides on smoother
✔ Colour stays vibrant for longer
✔ Your natural glow shines through, not your pores or texture
It’s the difference between makeup that looks “done” and makeup that looks effortless.
More Than Makeup. More Than Skincare.
Napoleon Perdis is where artistry meets innovation. Skincare that preps and protects. Makeup that enhances and empowers. Together, they don’t just coexist — they make each other better.
Because your beauty routine should never feel like a compromise. With NP, every step — from serum to setting spray — is designed to work together. Smoothly. Seamlessly. Unapologetically.
