The rock look

You don't have to hang out with Pete Doherty to have rock chick make-up, thank goodness. But there's more to pulling off this look than acquiring a junkie boyfriend and a pair of skinny jeans (and no, I'm not talking about a stint in an Arizona rehab). It's about attitude as much as it's about colours. You need to look half-done, as if you have made only the tiniest effort - just enough, in fact, to make people wonder if you've slept in your make-up, but not so much that they'll be certain you did (that's just a bit grim).

The key is to look a little blurred around the edges rather than full-on panda-eyed. Use a thick eyeliner pencil (rock chicks don't fanny about with liquid eyeliner) and use it creatively - try applying lots of it, for example, on the lower lid. Add plenty of black mascara, and don't worry about it being clumpy (clumpy mascara is the rock chick's false eyelashes ); then make lips pale and modern. To the mosh pit, my friends, and don't forget to scowl.
