Perfectly groomed brows are a must. Shape and define yours using either Chanel Perfect Brows, Anastasia Brow Ex-Press or Ariane Poole London Brow Kit. If they only need to be tamed try Origins Just Browsing (available in 4 shades).

The eyes are stunning yet easy to achieve, using a mix of soft shimmers and charcoal/brown/black. The key to this look is BLENDING. Sweep a pale ivory shadow from lash to brow. Good ones to try Bobbi Brown Bone, Lorac Beige Eye Shadow or Laura Mercier Butter Cream. Now add a taupeish neutral color such as Stila Wheat, Bobbi Brown Fawn or Nars Bali all over the lids. Next emphasise the outer corners with a charcoal/brown/black shadow. Ones to check out - Bobbi Brown Smoke, Smashbox Smashing Smoke or Lancome Color Design Couture. Place the shadow on the outer corners & along base of lower lashes. With a bit more emphasis on the outer corners. Extend this deep shade to slightly beyond the corners to get that sultry doe-like look. Define the shape with either a black pencil or gel eyeliner applied to the base of the top lashes and 1/2 way along the base of the lower lashes. Great Pencils & Gel Liners - Ariane Poole London Powder Pencil Ebony or Origins Eye Pencil Smoke, Bobbi Brown Longwear Gel Eyeliner Black Ink, Stila Smudge Pots Black or Smashbox Cream Liner Caviar. Next add drama with a black kohl pencil applied all around the inner rim of the eyes. If you feel your eyes are small, but you want to wear this look skip the black kohl. Or use a white kohl pencil inside the eyes. This will instantly make them look bigger. Try Lancome Black Kohl Pencil, Benefit Bad Gal or Helena Rubinstein White Kohl Pencil. Finish with a generous amount of black mascara. To create that Faux Lash look try Dior Show Mascara or Bourjois Coup de Theatre False Lash Illusion - Duo Mascara. Then curl your lashes to really open them up with Ariane Poole London Heated Lash Curlers. Eye Shadow Palettes to try - Urban Decay Asphalt Treesome, Ariane Poole London Timeless Palette or DVF Perfect Eye Compact Winter Palace.
