Re: is napoleon perdis bad for me?

i dont understand why anyone would begin to use NP, i mean the FOUNDER of the brand looks like a bad tranny, the models come from australias next top model and the SAs look like truck stop hookers.

NP make up is terrible, but their skin care products can be really good.

Re: is napoleon perdis bad for me?

I wouldn't use napoleon if they paid me.
There's nothign wrong with the makeup (except for all of the -rebranded- foundations are yellow based. which means you turn out orange unless you're yellow toned already.)
I o have a huge problem with the insane markups though.
The eyeshadows they are rebranding was origingally abooout $3 USD... maybe 6 or 7 AUD.
Hi everyone, are you enoying being humongously ripped off?
Stick to MAC and Bobbi Brown, better quality and you know you're not reeally being ipped off.

I find with Napoleon, it STICKS... and it pretty hard to get off. Which is fine, of course, unless you really want to go for a natural look.
I don't use makeup anyway so eh.

but I still liked it....lol...they made my eyes amazing.

At the start of the year I did some modeling for a girl who was taking the napolean course. She wasnt that great and the products were no better than maybellene or revelon the only difference was that they werent waterproof and revlon hasnt sold out to Target. lol ... MAC is the best make up around and instead of wasting your money getting it done professionally. Go to a Myer or DJ's which usually are the only places that sell MAC cosmetics and tell them you want to book in to buy some products for you to use at formal. just book in the day you want to get done and then you can pay for the products they use on you and get the whole bottles to use the rest of the year or however long it will last. and the best thing is if you dont like it you wont have to buy it or can simply tell them to take it off and try a differnt way. it will probly cost around double a normal make up session but you will have the effects last alot longer.
