If I had to pick just one thing that stood out to me from the Myer’s Autumn Winter show tonight, it would have to be that eyeliner is back – and bigger and badder than ever.

Napoleon Perdis designed the look with a nod to 70’s icons such as Jane Birkin and Cher. The result? A totally wearable look for both day and night, and one that is relatively simple to achieve with the right products.
“There’s a sense of innocence about this look; a full brow and dreamy eyes capture that quality just perfectly. Rich, linear definition is anchored by lots of lash to emphasise the femininity of the eyes,” says Perdis.
While the eyes remained as focus, Napoleon paired back the rest of the face illuminated skin and a neutral tone on lips.
Want to get the look? Read on.
STEP 1: Spritz the face with Auto Pilot Moisture Mist and massage Auto Pilot Hydrating Milk Cleanser into the skin to purify and prep. Tissue off excess cleanser before hydrating and priming.
STEP 2: Revitalise and hydrate the complexion with Auto Pilot Napoleon Complex Skin Renewal Serum.
STEP 3: Apply Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Skin Primer to prep your base for perfection.
STEP 4: Magnify your lashes to the max with a coat of Mesmer-Eyes Mascara.
STEP 5: Conceal imperfections with The One Concealer.
STEP 6: For a light-weight veil of luminous coverage apply Sheer Genius Liquid Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 20.
STEP 7: Gently contour the hollows of the cheeks with Light Switch Luminizer Palette in Bronze and highlight the high points of the face with Light Switch Luminizer Palette in Gold.
STEP 8: For longevity, lightly set the focus-feature area of the face with Camera Finish Powder Foundation.
STEP 9: Groom and define the brows with Browtox and the Browtox Grooming Brush.
STEP 10: Contour the eyes with Color Disc in Amazon Jungle and Trench Coat and Light Switch Luminizer Palette in Pink Ice.
STEP 11: Open the eyes by applying Eye Bright Inner Rim Eyeliner to the waterline. Define by using Angled Chisel Brush 9a to wash China Doll Gel Eyeliner in Yin along the upper and lower lash lines, extending at the outer corners of the eye.
STEP 12: For wide-eyed beauty, apply Lashes in Zinnia to the upper lash line and Lashes in Cherry Blossom to the lower lash line.
STEP 13: Apply a second coat of Mesmer-Eyes Mascara to your upper lashes, then carefully coat your bottom lashes, separating and lengthening with each coat.
STEP 14: Sweep Auto Pilot Tinted Lip Balm in Lilly over the lips. Want more color? Dress the lips with Mattetastic Lipstick in Sophia, then tap Light Switch Luminizer Palette in Rose onto the centre of the lips.
