With the start of Milan Fashion Week on Wednesday, we are channeling Italian-girl style in our beauty regimes. What, you may ask, does this entail? Well, where French girls go with a je ne sais quoi approach to beauty with a swipe of mascara and chic bedhead tresses, Italian girls go for Fellini-esque cool cat eyes, bold brows and wavy locks. The ultimate result is Sophia Loren meets Gigi Hadid. Sign us up.
