Mind it, you need to keep your eyes ‘un-matching’ with your outfit. What your eyes need to compliment with is the colors on your dress. For this, use colors that are the opposite of the colors on your dress. Use a flat eye shadow brush and then blend using a fluffy dome shaped brush. A darker colour will suit in your crease & follow it up with a highlighter up to your brow bone. All harsh lines visible to the naked eyes will go softened by it.

The pencil needs to fill your entire lip before running the lipstick over. Take a tissue & place it on your lips & run some loose powder with a brush over it for making the lipstick matte and keeping it last longer.
After this put one more lipstick coat with pressing a tissue over gently. Now in case of eating or drinking anything, your lips are going to look as fresh as new for real.
