Moschino SS09
With last season being all about the boyfriend jeans and oversized shirts, this season is all about translating masculine beauty looks into your everyday regime.
The box quiff, powerful eyebrows and a 'don't mess with me attitude' is all that's required to pull of this look, and we're sure you're all capable of giving that impression at times!
Moschino, Margaret Howell and Lyn Devon are just some of big names who showed this look on the catwalk for this year, sometimes mixing in their masculine beauty with more feminine fashion.
Once again the power dressing theme of the 80s have heavily influenced this beauty trend, only this time is has been given a modern twist with celebs like Gwen Stefani and Rihanna rocking the quiff look of the 00s.
If you want to achieve this look, then focus on your hair first, following through with dramatic eyebrows and signature red lips.
Long hair is a bit more tricky to style, so your best bet is to tie it into a low ponytail to begin with. Slick back either sides of your hair with some gel to ensure it's smooth and frizz free, then turn your attention to achieving the perfect quiff.
Separate a piece of hair from the front of your head and gently backcomb it until it can stand free on its own. Next fold it back to your desired height and fix in place with some pins, taking care to tease it into place a little bit so it's not too structured.
Moving onto your make-up, invest in some eyebrow stencils and a eyebrow pencil which will allow you to fill in any gaps in your brows, or to create a new, fuller shape to your arc.
Finally, give a little twist to your normal red lipstick by mixing in a orangey red shade, which is a hot colour right now. Again, go for a matte finish, as a glossed look is all wrong for this trend.
