Better Off Red

Better Off Red

A Collection that Celebrates the Classic
Think you can't work a red lip? Think again! Makeup guru Napoleon Perdis is democratising 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.
