Capturing the eye

from Fire Star (FIRESTAR501@hotmail.com)
I am a beginner and am having trouble working with portraits. The professionals in magazines seem to take decent pictures of their portraits but what makes it stand out is how clear the eyes are in those pictures which makes the picture absolutely beautiful and realistic. I am talking about being able to take a picture with a clear look at the human iris/pupil in a picture which has the entire face and maybe including the human shoulder. Is it the crappy camara or is it the lighting technique? It's probably both, but I think it's mostly lighting. Can anyone help? It would be greatly appreciated! (please respond in clear english and not photography lingo) Like I said, I'm new and trying.... thanks in advance.
