SATC style special: Cynthia Nixon

Her hair

Cynthia's striking bob-length style is intrinsically easy to wear and look after.

To re-create this classic style, towel-dry your locks and add a light styling product for body. 'Blast the hair and use a medium round brush to blow-dry your tresses for fullness and bounce,' says Akin, International Creative Director for hob salons.

'Concentrating on the ends, wrap the hair around the brush and blow-dry away from the face to help achieve this back-swept look.'

Lastly, placing the hairdryer on a cool setting, give hair an all over blast for a looser, softer result, and to finish, apply a spritz of shine spray for perfectly glistening and polished results; try Andrew Collinge Heat Defence Perfect Endings Spray, £4.20.

Her skin

Cynthia's timeless make-up look is ultra-flattering and works from dawn to dusk, whether you're in the boardroom or the bar.

Apply an illuminating primer underneath your foundation to give skin a natural radiance; we like Benefit That Gal Brightening Face Primer, £19.50, while a warm coral blush will further create that perfect, peaches and cream complexion that we all crave; try Bobbi Brown Blush in Tawny, £16.

Her eyes

Recreate Cynthia's pretty eyes with a flesh pink/beige shimmer eyeshadow; we like >Bourjois Suivez Mon Regard Eyeshimmer in Sunshine Beige, £6.50, followed by using a brown eye liner such as Bourjois Liner Clubbing in Brown Vibes, £5.95, around the eye contour, and brown mascara to subtly enhance eyelashes.

Nude brown lipstick complements this gorgeous look perfectly - try Bobbi Brown Lip Color in Blush, £14 (available from May), and to ensure you glow all night long like Cynthia, lightly dust shimmer powder over your neck and chest, we love Tesco All About Face Shimmer Powder in Shade 1 (Golden Sunset Gleam), £1.88.
