2010 Trend: Marcel waves

Whether you prefer Heidi's traditional look or Taylor's and Kim's less dramatic style, these retro flat-against-the-head curls are easier to manage than you might think. "Prep the hair when it's wet with a little bit of texture to give it hold," , use a heat protectant before you blow-dry hair and heat up some curlers.

When hair is dry, use a comb to create a dramatic side part. Next, divide your strands into one-inch sections all around your head. Start rolling your mane onto rollers from ends to roots. Pull hair sideways while you wrap it around your face, then maneuver it towards your crown for the rest of your locks.

Shalimar eau de perfume by Guerlain

Perfume's first oriental juice made its jazz-age debut in 1925 – and for 2010 Shalimar is enjoying a rock-royalty makeover with a bottle redesign by Jade Jagger, daughter of the Rolling Stones' Mick.

Choosing the right perfume

Choosing a perfume that suits your skin, feelings and personality isn’t easy.

Define your ingredients: You need to identify your ingredients of choice in order to find your own scent. Perfume is classified into six main categories; floral, fruity, Oceanic, woody, greens and Orientals.

Check and try: Each person's skin has its own fragrance. The outer layer of skin changes the characteristics of a perfume, depending on skin type. To find whether a perfume suits you, test it on your pulse points which are the neck and wrist. Wait half an hour to know if it suits you or no.

The different notes in a fragrance: perfumes are built in three-tiered scent pyramids comprising top notes (fresh, strong scents that are immediately apparent when you spray the perfume onto your skin), heart notes (more sensual scents that become apparent after about 10 minutes); and base notes (heavy, more durable notes that make the perfume last). You can only really find out what a perfume’s real fragrance is like after an hour’s wear, when all three notes have come out.

Choosing the right perfume for you: It’s not easy to know which perfume is best for you when you’re confronted with all manner of different types: eau de toilette, eau de parfum, summer perfume, perfumed oil and perfumed lotions. For daily use, eau de toilette is ideal for giving you a discreet scent. The same goes for perfumed lotions and powders, which give skin a delicate fragrance.

Applying perfume: To make it works for you apply it to strategic zones: your neck, décolleté, around your ear and the inside of your wrist. You can also spray your clothes.

Taking care of your perfume: Perfume can change or get affected from light, heat or temperature, so keep it in a dry place in its original packaging. A well-kept perfume has a life expectancy of 2-5 years.

Have a nice day

Choosing nail polish

Nail Polish is part of your style, and just like any accessory, it has to match your outfit. Make sure your color matches what you're wearing and you won't have to worry about hiding your clashing nails from the world.

Choosing color according to skin tone: 

-         If you're fair skin look best in lighter shades of nail polish with pink undertones, nail polishes that have blue undertones may also work well. Fair skinned women tend to look their best in berry red shades of nail polish with a lighter color for day and more dramatic shade for the evening wear.

-         If your skin has more olive undertones and is a bit darker, you'll probably look fantastic in shades of chocolate and gold. These shades of nail polish really tend to play up olive skin.

-         If you have dark skin, you can get by with almost any rich, deep or vibrant shades of nail polish including vibrant reds and purples. You can generally get by with a bolder display of color than can the fair skinned person.

Tips for choosing color:

 - Choose a color the same as (or closely related to) a color in your outfit

- Clear, pink, cream or beige polishes dress up your nails with an elegant, subtle touch. Whatever the season and whatever your style, natural shades always works. A French manicure looks so sophisticated.

- Red nail polish incarnates femininity, is chic for a night out and goes perfectly with lip shine or red lipstick. Red polish goes beautifully with black or any outfit with a touch of red. 

- Highlight your hands with dark nail polish in brown, plum and purple to bring out built-up, well-defined brown and plum eye make-up. Avoid, plum or purple nail polish with black outfits, they don't go together. Go for colder colors like white or grey. 

- Black polish is very in and can be used on short, square nails. Needless to say, black, being black, goes with black. Avoid brown clothes plus black nail polish equals disaster.

- Glitter polish illuminates your look. It glam up tanned summer feet, and can be a great way of accessorizing.

Choosing the right type of polish:

Choosing the right color is not it, you also have to choose from the different types of texture, each of which give a different effect either it is pearly, shiny or matte.

- For work or everyday wear, use matte nail polish. The effect is quite subtle, and perfect if you like to keep your make-up discreet and natural.

- Shiny polish brings a sophisticated touch to your style. Whatever color you choose, the studied, classy effect will give you dazzling, feminine hands.

- Pearly nail polish isn’t in any more, but it can still look good on tanned hands.
