One must have item in every girl make-up bag is a good kohl eyeliner, especially if you are the kind of individual that loves to make a statement.  If natural is a no go for you then add a little definition to your eyes by heavily lining them with either a back, dark brown or smoky style kohl pencil.  If you wish to create a warmer effect then line the eyes with a deeper sparkly brown hue, this is a great investment if you wish to create an evening look and will have the effect of creating a deeper and warmer eye effect.

Caroline Barnes is currently the make-up artist for the make-up brand Max Factor says that a brown pencil, when used correctly will give as much definition, if not more than a black pencil.  Just make sure you opt a deep and rich hue and begin the procedure by applying a brown shaded shadow to the lids of your eyes.  The Bobbi Brown Eye Shadow in Rich Brown is the perfect colour to team with a brown kohl pencil and will give a natural yet defining look to the eyes, making them appear bolder, bigger and more dramatic.  The Bobbi brown Eye Shadow in Rich brown will cost you £14.50 and can be purchased from an array of beauty stores and high-end department stores nationwide.  The shadow also comes in the standard Bobbi Brown statement packaging, which means it will look great on your dressing table!

For best results and in order to create a wide eyed effect you show blend the shadow up to the brow bone, making it a little darker and heavier at the top.

The next stage requires you to take your rich brown kohl eye pencil and work it around the whole eye.  This will draw attention to your peepers, making them stand out for all to see.  Finish with lots of mascara but keep everything else low key.  A good tip to follow when it comes to applying make is to only make a statement with one area; this could be the lip, the eyes or the cheeks.  However al three will have you looking more like you are working fancy dress than a simple fancy look!
