BETTER OFF RED
A Collection that Celebrates the Classic

Think you can’t work a red lip? Think again! Makeup guru Napoleon Perdis is democratizing the shade that’s synonymous with classic glamour. “Many women shy away from red but they’re missing out,” he confides. “Wearing a red lip is the fastest way to upgrade your image; it’s facebrightening, teeth-whitening, and mood altering.” The trick to finding your perfect shade match?
“Just leave it for 12 minutes,” says Napoleon. “You need to let your eye adjust to a strong statement color like red.”

To mark his redvolution, Napoleon launches his new Better Off Red collection: the rouge-devoted lineup consists of seven lip products in varying hues and textures – all spiked with plenty of nourishing ingredients. “I’ve crafted a collection of red lip shades for all skin tones and ages to prove that red can be anyone’s color – no excuses!”

Double Agent Rouge ($33 AUD)
Napoleon Says: “Channel your inner Bond girl.”
Master the art of the red lip with this innovative lip palette. The semi-matte lipstick is enriched with Vitamin E and Carnauba Wax to ensure a smooth application, while the pressed lip powder that helps to contain color and give an on-trend mattifying effect also boasts Marine Extracts to protect your lips. The result: a velvety, matt-tastic, full-bodied red pout. Lip brush applicators included.
PRO TIP: First load a lip brush with the lipstick then brush over the lips. Build color for intensity. Next pat and smooth powder with the sponge to set color for a totally matte lip look.

Undercover Red Lip Gloss ($30 AUD)
Napoleon Says: “This is haute couleur”
Experience truly customized color. Upon contact with the lips, this clear, self-adjusting jelly gloss morphs into your very own shade of red. Thanks to extraordinary pH-sensitive pigments, Undercover Red’s final color pay off is shade that truly complements your skin tone. On the inside, antioxidants like Cherry and Pomegranate Extracts help to smooth and hydrate the lips. Paraben and talc free.
PRO TIP: Apply to bare lips for a gorgeous glossy red pout – and a red like no other. Layer over DeVine Goddess Lipstick in Aphrodite or Anna.

Front Row Red Lip Gloss ($30 AUD)
Napoleon Says: “A happy hybrid of lipstick and gloss”
Combining the benefits of lipstick and gloss, this long-lasting, vivid red delivers instant impact. The creamy, high-pigment texture lasts up to 10 hours yet stays comfortable thanks to lip-loving ingredients like organic Brazil Nut Seed Oil and Peach Extract which hydrate and nourish.
PRO TIP: Start in the middle, and work the applicator all the way into the corners of the mouth. Gently press lips together to evenly distribute color. Line after application for added definition.

Lady In Red Lip Gloss ($30 AUD)
Napoleon Says: “Reddy. Steady. Ravishing!”
Make a statement with this high-impact, high-shine lip fluid. The clever fusion of Argan Oil and Cherry Extract nourishes, protects and restores the lips. Lady In Red goes on like a gloss, but with the finish of a lipstick and color stays put for up to 6 hours. What’s not to love?
PRO TIP: Start in the middle, and work the applicator all the way into the corners of the mouth. Gently press lips together to evenly distribute color. Line after application for added definition.

DeVine Goddess Lipsticks in Anna, Xenia and Aphrodite ($33 AUD)
Napoleon Says: “Worthy of worship”
These luxurious lipsticks are enriched with natural oils to protect your pout. Each shade glides on smooth and provides long-lasting color for undeniably glamorous lips.
PRO TIP: Apply liner after – not before – lipstick to create a more natural and defined lip look.

Launch date: 1st August

Giorgio Armani Fall Collection 2011 – Jacquard

July 19, 2011 by  
Filed under Colour Stories, Featured, Giorgio Armani

JACQUARD

Sophisticated Jacquard motifs woven into silk fabric are the inspiration for next autumn’s make-up lines, where colour, radiance and sensuality combine in gossamer textures. The colour palette explores contrasts and the interplay of light and shade, creating a look that is both soft and intense. Satin half tones, verging on pastel – aqua green, tobacco and camel in desaturated shades – vie with scarlet and deep violet. Silky glints on a floating haze of colour; this is make-up that mirrors fashion.

The eyes

Quatuor Eye Palettes
The Jacquard theme unfolds in two textured eye shadows.
At the heart of each, four nuanced shades like four separate silk threads: a central eye shadow duo, a highlighter and a deeper shade for emphasis.
The colours can be combined or blended at will. “For greater intensity they can be applied with a damp brush,” suggests Linda Cantello.

The only rule is – be as creative as you dare. The unique texture of these two eye shadows allows the wearer to play any role she chooses, in subtle and restrained make-up for the day or assuming a more sophisticated and dramatic look for the evening.

The secret lies in a unique micronisation process applied to the pigments, Color-FilTM, producing ultra fine powders: for a radiant film of vibrant colour, a soft and smooth long lasting texture, so light that colours can be blended and layered with total freedom. Pure colour, sheer perfection.

Jacquard Eye Quatuor Palette 001     (limited edition) $135.00
Jacquard Eye Quatuor Palette 002     (limited edition) $135.00

Eyes to Kill Excess
A weapon of seduction but only in a limited edition: Eyes to Kill Excess, Giorgio Armani’s cult mascara clothes the eyelashes in a swathe of deep black.

Eyes To Kill – Steel Black 01          (permanent catalogue) $55.00

The complexion

Powder Foundation & Blush
Like woven beams of light, dressing the face in a bespoke glow.
Two sculpting tones, an illuminator and a translucent red blush.

The palette includes four shades that allow for a myriad of make-up options, to suit all complexion types.
The secret to an instant glow: blend the three nude shades and apply to the whole face, highlighting the cheek bones with a touch of blush.
The blend of these four shades on the face results in a lovely fresh complexion with a slight rosy tint. Radiance is the watchword. The powders achieve maximum radiance through Micro-Fil technology. Each shade glows in all its glory. Translucent, as fine as can be, the powders blend together perfectly, melting into the skin with no trace of artificiality. A glowing veil of silk that looks utterly natural.

Jacquard Face Palette 001             (limited edition) $90.00

Blushing Fabric
A sensational texture for the cheekbones: Blushing Fabric is unveiled in two versions, camel and scarlet. Two completely unexpected colours, given a natural radiant sheen by the almost imperceptible texture of this blush tube.

Blushing Fabric 06 Camel                      (limited edition) $70.00
Blushing Fabric 07 Scarlatto                (limited edition) $70.00

The lips

Rouge d’Armani
As a special limited edition, Rouge d’Armani has been re-issued in a new autumn range. Colour code: glowing nudes (beige, rose beige, or pink heightened with a touch of mauve to brighten the lips) providing a alluring contrast with the classic scarlet.

Rouge d’Armani 107 Sheer Beige               (limited edition) $52.00
Rouge d’Armani 108 Sheer Pink Beige     (limited edition) $52.00
Rouge d’Armani 525 Sheer Mauve             (limited edition) $52.00
Rouge d’Armani 406 Scarlatto Red     (limited edition) $52.00

ON COUNTER: 31st July 2011
Giorgio Armani cosmetics are exclusive to David Jones department stores. Stockist: 02 9931 8888

About the Honey

The team at The Body Shop searched carefully to find honey and beeswax hives and suppliers that met the objectives of the unique Community Fair Trade programme.
The Community Fair Trade honey used in Honey Bronze is supplied by Bezamar, an Ethiopian company that work with beekeepers from the Bale mountains in the south of Oromia state in Ethiopia.
The beekeepers employ traditional methods, using hives handcrafted from locally grown bamboo. This promotes strong, healthy bees, plus it deters logging in the forest. The raw comb is harvested, then tested for quality before the honey is separated and filtered. In addition to ensuring a fair price for this ingredient, The Body Shop pays an additional fund to the Oromia State Forest Department, supporting their excellent work pioneering community forest management.
The Community Fair Trade beeswax used in Honey Bronze products comes from the remote Adamaoua region of Cameroon through an organisation called ‘Guide for Hope’. The beeswax is harvested naturally from hives made of local, sustainable materials. The hives only last six months so that the bees living in them stay healthy and free of disease.

The Honey Bronze Collection is available 30 June 2011

Natio – Berry Beautiful Collection

May 26, 2011 by  
Filed under Colour Stories, Natio

Berry Beautiful
make-up must-haves to mix, match, and make your own

The approach of a new season presents an exciting opportunity to explore new looks. After a summer of minimal makeup, pastels and nudes, it is time to be boldly berry inspired. As seen on the international runways, Natio’s new Berry Beautiful limited edition colour collection captures the major beauty trend this autumn/winter. Featuring two mineral palettes, nail and lip colours and a liquid eyeliner, these makeup must-haves showcase a timeless, on-trend palette of ripe plum, cherry red, soft pink and warm earthy tones. All you need to master the rich sophistication characteristic of the colder, darker seasons.

All About Berry: hints for day and night statement looks
Natio Berry Beautiful combines top-selling shades with brand new natural hues of soft and deep berries. The expertly matched palettes make it easy to translate the catwalk trend into wearable looks for day and night whether you want to think big or start small. The key to making the look your own is to mix and match: “Trends should inspire, not dictate your look. With Natio Berry Beautiful you can add just an accent of berry with cherry red nails or subtle plum lips. Or go all in with a statement look of deep berry evening glamour”, says Natio make-up artist, Linda Riddell.

As part of the collection, Natio is launching its first ever all-in-one palettes with three mineral eyeshadows, mineral blusher and bronzer, and three mineral lip glosses. Each palette contains eight harmonious berry inspired colours to suit all ages and skin tones. The purse sized compact includes applicators and a built-in mirror, making it extra convenient for both home and handbag. The Soft Berry Palette offers berry pastels for fresh natural day looks, while the Deep Berry Palette is ideal for creating intense evening looks. Finally, the collection introduces a Liquid Eye Liner in Midnight Berry (dark navy) with an exceptional new felt tip for precise application.

Berry Tutorial: get the look
With Berry Beautiful, Natio has designed the perfect palette to enable women to have fun and experiment with berry and plum colours. For inspiration, Linda Riddell shares her professional tips to mastering the casual and glamorous berry looks: “Natio’s Berry Beautiful collection encourages creativity; you can play around with carefully selected colours and textures to find the best combination for your personal style. My only rule of thumb is to balance your look by combining dramatic eyes with more neutral lips and vice versa.”

Create the romantically fresh Soft Berry look
This pastel day look is a great introduction to the colourful world of berry.
Key product: Natio Mineral Colour Palette in Soft Berry.

1.    Apply your favourite Natio foundation or tinted moisturiser for a flawless complexion.
2.    Create a soft glow by lightly applying bronzer from cheeks to temples with circular motions.
3.    Apply Blusher to the apples of the cheeks.
4.    Dust the light eyeshadow (creamy taupe) over lid and brow bone area to highlight and enhance.
5.    Define eyes by covering eyelid with the medium eyeshadow (soft pink).
6.    Colour the outer corners and close to the lower lashes with the dark shade (mocha) for contrast.
7.    For a soft, romantic look, gently smudge and blend the eyeshadow colours using a clean brush.
8.    Finish off with Super Long Lash Mascara, applying a couple of extra coats to the outer corners of the eye lashes to open the eyes.
9.    Choose your favourite lip gloss (soft honey peach, light pink, or sheer honey bronze).
10.    Complete the look with Berry You Nail Colour.
11.    TIP: Going out for lunch? Replace your lip gloss with Baby Berry Lip Colour.

Create the dramatically glamorous Deep Berry look
This look is all about making a statement with bold deep berry lips and liquid lined eyes.
Key products: Velvet Berry Lip Colour and Midnight Berry Liquid Eye Liner plus Mineral Colour Palette in Deep Berry for base.

1.    Apply your favourite Natio foundation or tinted moisturiser for a flawless complexion.
2.    For a golden look, generously blend bronzer from cheeks to temples with circular motions.
3.    Apply blusher to the apples of the cheeks.
4.    Highlight eyes by sweeping the light eyeshadow (beige gold) over the eyelid and brow bone area.
5.    Holding the eyelid taut and using quick short strokes, apply Liquid Eye Liner as close to the top lashes as possible to accentuate eyes.
6.    Finish off with Super Long Lash Mascara.
7.    Smooth on Velvet Berry Lip Colour.
8.    Complete the look with Very Berry Nail Colour.
9.    TIP: Special occasion? Create an elegant ‘cat eye’ by extending the Liquid Eye Liner into a slight curve at the outer corner of the eye. Imagine that the direction of the curve extends from the lower lash line up towards the end of the brow – with the actual curve being only ½ to 1 cm.
10.    TIP: Intensify the Lip Colour by mixing in your combination of lip gloss shades from the palette.

Mineral Colour Palette, $24.95

Eles – Femme Fatale and Bohemian Chic

April 2, 2011 by  
Filed under Colour Stories, Eles, Featured

ELES AUTUMN/WINTER Makeup Trends 2011
In the world of ELES two key looks emerge this autumn/winter…
femme-fatale
FEMME FATALE

The return of ‘Smoky-Eyes’ is even more dramatic than before – eyes are bold and intense, dramatically lined with deep shades of coal off-set by soft natural lips and a light radiant complexion – the perfect contrast….

GET THE LOOK
femme-fatale-prodFACE: Flawless and refined with a hint of glamorous sheen
Conceal: Apply Mineral Illuminator Light over imperfections and dark under eye circles using the warmth of your fingers to press and blend into the skin.
Base: Apply a small amount of Liquid Powder Mineral Foundation – Tender Beige to face and neck blending well to ensure a truly flawless finish.
Balance and Highlight: Using a blush brush apply NEW Mineral Gemstone Finishing Powder – Corrector to the high points of the cheeks and any other areas you wish to highlight.
EYES: The Smokey look is still ‘now’ but it’s more dramatic than before.
Wet the entire eye line with a damp brush and apply Mineral Matte Shadow in Teak for intense colour, follow with an additional soft layer below the lower lash line and then apply Mineral Shadow in Opal to the inner corner of the eyes.
Next line the top and bottom lash line with Powderliner Pencil in Coal making the line thicker towards the outer edge. Using the sponge tip end of the pencil softly blend the thicker eye liner up to the outer third of the eye lid (this step can be repeated to add more depth to the outer eye – the powder liner pencil blends effortlessly with mineral eye shadows) . Follow by blending the lower lash line from the outer edge inwards. Line the inner rim of the lower lash line to intensify the effect.
Complete the eyes with 2 coats of Lush Mascara in Black.
LIPS: Soft and Natural
Apply Pro Lip Primer (the secret weapon for every beauty bag) to the lips to enhance lipstick wear, prevent colour bleeding and to make lips appear full and sensuous. Follow with Micro-Bubble Lipstick in Shell for neutral lips that complete a perfectly balanced look.

bohemian-chicBOHEMIAN CHIC
The classic makes a comeback.
Nude lashes allows for freedom to experiment with eye shadows creating definition. Couple with bold, beautiful lips and well primed skin and you have the perfect partnership….

GET THE LOOK
bohemian-chic-prodFACE: Matte Skin, Luminous Finish
Base: For those not born with a fresh-faced glow, this look is all about the prep work. Prime skin with Retexturizing Face Primer SPF 20, and then apply Mineral Foundation Powder SPF 8 for a gorgeous matte finish.
Balance and Highlight: Soft highlights of colour are achieved with a large brush and light dusting of New Colour Tides Mineral Powder in Peaches n Cream.
EYES: All about the shadow
Introducing the NEW Eyeshadow Quad in Nakeds – four shades in one compact used in layered transition to achieve the ultimate neutral eyes.
Begin by applying a wash of the cream quarter shade over the entire lid up towards the brow. Next apply the pale pink quarter shade to the eye lid and outer 2/3rds of the eye above the crease, the copper quarter is applied next to the lid and outer 1/3rd above the crease. To complete the eyes the light brown quarter is used with a damp short angle brush along the top and bottom lash line.
LIPS: Bold and beautiful
The confident classic is reborn. Outline lips with Automatic Long-lasting Lipliner in Earth Red and work the moist-matte look by applying Micro-Bubble Lipstick in Bronze.

The Body Shop – Brush With Fashion Collection

April 2, 2011 by  
Filed under Colour Stories, The Body Shop

brush-with-fashion-posterDiscover what happens when make-up meets fashion! The limited edition Brush With Fashion collection is a new cruelty-free, fashion-forward make-up and accessories collection. This collection with built-in brushes, Community Fair Trade ingredients and covetable packaging was created in collaboration with the internationally-acclaimed London College of Fashion. Brush With Fashion is the ultimate portable, ultra-stylish make-up must-have in irresistible colour palettes.

The exclusive packaging design was selected following a joint The Body Shop and London College of Fashion student competition. The winning artwork was created by Katarina Voloder, a German 21 year-old BA (Hons) fashion illustration undergraduate. Her amazing design is built around a
make-up sketch of an eye, lips and make-up brush, giving the packaging a strong fashion-forward feel. This is combined with a starburst fan effect with splashes of colour to convey the chic shades of the new collection.

The Body Shop has cleverly integrated its award-winning cruelty-free brush technology into every product. Eyes, lips, cheeks and face will enjoy precise, time-saving, expert application. And because each product comes with its own brush, this perfectly portable collection can be used
anytime, anyplace.

Warm your complexion with Illuminating Face Base and Lightening Touch;
add a glow with Tailored Cheek Tint; brush on gorgeous eye colour with the Limited Collection For Eyes; and complete your look with a slick of Hi-Shine Lip Treatment. The Brush with Fashion Collection also features a handy Mini Brush Kit so your make-up essentials are always close to hand.

“My style has an illustrative quality, blending graphic design with fine art. As always, my main
inspiration for the ‘Brush With Fashion’ design was shape, and for this project I only had one word on my mind: BRUSH. This led me to create a brush-stroke motif, which allowed me to keep a simplicity to the design whilst enabling it to stand-out from the crowd. I am thrilled that my creation was chosen to feature across the ‘Brush With Fashion’ packaging. I have always admired The Body Shop ethical, sustainable and cruelty-free approach to make-up and brushes, so it’s particularly exciting that my work is now a key part of this innovative, new, on-trend collection.” Katarina Voloder.

Sourced from the Owumbo women of Namibia, marula oil is a very effective moisturiser. Trade with The Body Shop has allowed the 5,000 female entrepreneurs who make the oil to build their own factory, gaining economic independence and a new-found self-esteem.

CHRISTMAS COLLECTION MAKEUP 2010

Whimsical desires float through the air… A palette with warm tones, dashed with a joyful pink, compliments coppers and bronzes swept over eyelids. On cheeks, lips and fingertips, the radiance of ultra-feminine fuchsia is a playful weapon of seduction.
“Let us succumb to temptation before it disappears.” For the duration of a Makeup Collection, the famous saying by Epicurus seems to guide the imagination of Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup.
Gluttony and voluptuousness are no longer sins ; the wisdom of pleasure takes on a whole new meaning.

lipsROUGE COCO
Faithful to its claims of elegance and absolute comfort, the classic CHANEL lipstick is enriched with soft and timeless shades.
Patchouli, a light copper, both delicate and warm
Magnolia, a soft and simple feminine pink

LÈVRES SCINTILLANTES
The ultra-luminous lip shine comes in three new shades. Every woman has her own code of seduction.
Pleasing, a voluptuous bronze.
Charming, a seemingly innocent pale pink.
Pink Pulsion, the sophisticated fantasy of fuchsia.

eyesLES 4 OMBRES “ TENTATION CUIVRÉE ”
With its four shades, two dark and two light, the star product of the Collection embraces bronze to confidently show off its captivating charms. The eyes smoulder under precious eyeshadows with
metallic reflections:
Beige Lumineux, Rose Frais, Brun Cuivré and Rouge Noir Cuivré.
Their iridescent and satiny texture softens the sensuality of the eyes, which become softer than ever.
« For dramatic makeup, apply damp to create a more seductive ‘femme fatale’ look.
For day time makeup and a less sophisticated effect, apply all the shades dry and form an “almond” shape. »
Peter Philips, Global Creative Director for Chanel Makeup


cheekOMBRE D’EAU
Splash, a lovely name with an aquatic resonance.This colour is a deep and luminous frosted bronze.
Simply elegant when blended over the eyelid, it becomes more intense traced along the base of lashes.

LES TISSAGES de CHANEL
Part-candy, part-jewel, Tweed Fuchsia adorns cheekbones with complete seduction. Beneath an amazingly soft and sheer halo, the complexion lights up in joyful pink, sprinkled with specks of gold.

LE VERNIS “ PULSION ”
In a burst of self-proclaimed femininity, Le Vernis Pulsion completes the fuchsia harmony with intense flair. Painted onto nails, it echoes the shiny or satiny effects of lip and cheek makeup.
