Loud! Bold! Drag! Petrilude (aka Josh) is a 27-year-old natural born talent living in NYC. Since his start on YouTube back in 2006, Josh has been creating eccentric, out-of-the-box looks, including his intricate Halloween makeup tutorials that are always a huge hit.
He says his audience is made up of "anyone and everyone!" His advice for those venturing into the makeup world is, “It’s only makeup so have fun with it and try new things and if it doesn't work, wash it off.”
Josh
has had the honor of being invited to do makeup for multiple runway shows for
fashion week four seasons in a row. His
most memorable experience in the beauty industry has been “the opportunity to
meet many of the people I look up to in the industry for tips and tricks... also
finding out that some of them watch my videos and learn from me.”
Sigma Beauty: What
was the most rewarding part about your trip to Paris?
Josh: Getting to know more about the other YouTubers
I was on the trip with and seeing how alike everyone is even though we're all so
different.
Sigma Beauty: What
did you like best about the city itself?
Josh: The architecture! There's so much
history in all of the buildings, it's amazing to see how well-preserved
everything is.
Sigma Beauty: What
did you learn from this experience/collaboration with Sigma?
Josh: I learned so much about Paris' history
while seeing all of the sights, and traveling around the city. I also learned
that a lot more goes into making an eye shadow/palette than you would think.
Sigma Beauty: What
was it like to learn about the process of how an eye shadow palette and eye
shadow colors are created?
Josh: It's crazy! Most people think you
just go "oh I want a blue" and go from there. But there are so many different shades, so many
different finishes, and unlimited possibilities of stuff you can do to make a
color. Then when you consider the fact that you have to make it all cohesive, add in
blush colors, etc., it makes it even crazier! It was cool to see and be a part of
the process, and knowing how much work actually goes into it makes me appreciate
it all that much more.
Sigma Beauty: What
is your favorite way to wear the eye shadow color that you created?
Josh: Either as a smokey eye, a pop of color
in the crease, or used as an eyeliner.

I love the colour Josh introduced to this palette, it's just gorgeous and really stands out! It's not a common shade of blue so he's really hit the mark in creating something unique!

DeleteI am loving the palette so far!! I don't know all of the YT-ers so it's nice to meet everyone behind the magic!! Esp Josh! I've never heard of his before and now that I've seen him as part of the Paris palette team, I checked out his YT vids & LOVE THEM! It's like he's been missing in my YT 'must watch' list!!
