Even though it's only June, for a beauty addict like me, it's never too early to start digging into new fall makeup colors and trends. I met with makeup artist Napoleon Perdis this morning to get a sneak peak at the newest introductions to his line (available in stores this November) as well as some makeup tricks you can try now!\n\nThe first product Napoleon showed me was the Napoleon Perdis Sheer Genius Foundation, which went on super soft and smooth. His trick for getting perfect coverage: prime your skin first, so that you can reactivate your foundation's benefits and get longer lasting wear. \"Not to prime is a crime!\" said Napoleon, who added that you can also use primer during the day to refresh foundation. Once you've applied your primer (Napoleon recommended his Auto-Pilot Pre-Foundation Primer), you can start on your foundation, which he says should hardly be applied to the \"heart-shaped\" portion of your face, focusing on the area around your nose, inside of your cheeks and around your eyes, then blending outward.\n\nAnother new addition to his line this fall includes the Napoleon Perdis Loose Dust Eye Shadows and the Napoleon Perdis Color Disc Eye Shadows, which will be available in 50 different colors. A fan of the smoky eye myself, I tested a shade of black that blended really well and gave a really good color payoff for being such a dark shade. Napoleon's trick to getting perfect eyes every time is to apply color on the outside of your eyelid, rather than the inside, so as not to make your eyes appear smaller than they are. He also recommends applying mascara first!\n\nNapoleon's last words of advice were to start experimenting with lipstick. \"Lipstick is back in a big way,\" he said, adding that should you choose to wear it (he recommended his DeVine Goddess Lipstick), apply lip liner after it's application, rather than before.\n\nThe new Napoleon Perdis line will be available at select retailers including Ulta Stores and Planet Beauty this fall.
