Step 1: Eyebrows
Tweese and groom your eyebrows. Define your brows with a shade as close to your natural brow colour as possible.
Following your natural brow line, use short and light strokes to fill in where needed with a brow pencil. This opens up your face.
Step 2: Eyeshadow
Use a palette of eyeshadow colours with darker shades around the inner corners and the lighter shades on the outer. Blending is key.
Step 3: Eyeliner
Eyeliner defines and opens up your eyes. Carefully guide your eyeliner along the upper lash line. For stronger look at night, can line your lower lash line. Remember to go as close to your lash line as possible.
I would go for pencil type for day look and liquid type for night look.
Step 4: Eyelashes
Curl your eyelashes, pressing it as close to the roots as possible. Then apply mascara from the roots of the lashes in a sligt zig-zag motions upwards towards the tips of the lashes.
Recommendation: Shishedo eyelash curler, Maybelline's range of mascara

Dot these areas and blend them lightly with your fingertips until the areas look smooth.
