1. Use a concealer or liquid foundation to hide the under eye wrinkles. Allow it to set for a few minutes and apply a compact to lock the application.

2. You can use the blackest black eye liner and pencil as an outline. The dark outline highlights eyes and shifts the focus of the onlooker towards it.
