Beauty Tutorial: Posh Vs. Punk
Two of the top beauty trends this fall are the polished, posh look shown on the Hermès runway and a favourite of Angelina Jolie (these days, at least), and a smoky-eyed punk look favoured by models on the Marc Jacobs runway and a blond Anne Hathaway. Whichever you choose, we've got the perfect tools for both beauty looks - and if you like to jump from one to the other, all the better!

POSH BEAUTY MUST-HAVES:
Hair: For loose and shiny waves like Angelina's, wrap five-cm sections of hair around a curling iron. Once cool, gently brush out and apply a glossing serum.
Eyes: Use semi-matte nude shadows to sweep a light shade across your lid to browbone and a draker shade into the crease and lashline.
Lips: Try a petal-pink lipstick with a hint of flattering shine and apply with a lip brush for precision and extra-long wear.
Nails: Well-manicured, nude nails are versatile and clean - top a dusty rose shade with a glossy topcoat and a few drops of cuticle oil.
Fragrance: A double dose of feminine jasmine plus tuberose and honeysuckle make Estée Lauder's Modern Muse the ideal scent for this lady.
PUNK BEAUTY MUST-HAVES:
Hair: Get the volume of Anne Hathaway's edgy faux mohawk by flipping your hair upside down and spraying all over with extra-strength styling spray.
Eyes: Heavily line your top and bottom lashlines with a dark, chunky eyeliner and use your fingers to gently diffuse the lines until you achieve a sexy, smoky effect.
Lips: Your sultry stare is the star of this look, so keep lips simple with nude matte lipstick applied from the tube.
Nails: File nails short and go for a round or squared-off shape, topping with two coats of deep khaki lacquer and matte topcoat.
Fragrance: Notes of velvet musks, Texas cedar and watery plum in Downtown Calvin Klein offer a hint of moody intensity.
