But, she says, keep it minimal, especially if you’re apprehensive about brights, by wearing just a slick of liner as close to your upper lashline as possible. If you’re more adventurous, combine it with a similar shade of eyeshadow for a bolder look or create colourful smoky eyes for a night out by blending complementary shades. We’ve given it a go here at the ELLE HQ, now it’s your turn!

Below are some looks to inspire you.

Top tip: Use a soft kohl eye pencil that smudges easily. It is much easier to apply and won’t pull the delicate skin around your eyes, plus it can double as an eyeshadow if you smudge it gently with your ring finger.
