The Trend: tousled, sleepy hair with soft volume…..but how do I do this at home??

A: Almost anyone can wear red lips, it’s a matter of finding the right colour for your skin tone.

A: Right now the hottest hair trends are soft, unkept and a little wild. Our scruffy chic applies a volumising spray to clean dry hair and blasts with her hairdryer to set the product.
