Everyone needs to know how to do a perfect smokey eye - just like BEYONCE

3. Using the darker grey and a brushbrush over three quearters of the eye leaving the inner corner light grey.

4. Using the blackand the brush brush over the darker grey area

5. Using a clean brush you know want to merge the eye shadows slightly so the don't look like three blocked colours

6. Outline the eye heavily using a black eyeliner, often using the eyeliner and thensmudging it is a good technique - SAVI uses rimmel London

7. SAVI like to add a small amount of dark purple eye shadow in the outer corners of the eye

8. Using a clean brush ensure the darker shadows come jsut out of the eyelid so when your eyes are open everyone can see the shadow.

9. In the inner corner of your eyes using a very fine brush - SAVI uses a lip liner brush - use a white shadow and outline slightly the edge of your eyes in the corner

10. Now apply mascara or false eye lashes - SAVI uses Rimmel London ultimate lashes mascara and reccomends Millie Mackintosh's false lashes in stock in Selfridges

Create your own studded look...


You will need:
  1. Wash the shirt to soften the denim
  2. When dry, mark on the desired position of the studs
  3. Poke spikes through the material, covering the marker pen, and fold pack to hold in place
Savi loves embellishment on the collar and pocket

If you don't have the time or patience to poke holes through your clothes, a great alternative is a collar necklace. Savi loves our new one from Topshop:





Nails


You can now buy studs to go on your nails! Easy to use and available in all different shapes, you can create some long lasting nail designs to match your new biker gear...

Savi loves these Andrea Fullerton Gold Nail Studs, £5 from Amazon



 But if you can’t get hold of nail studs, here’s what Savi did instead...


Just apply a base coat and colour, then using a cocktail stick add gold spots for a 2D version.
