Mismatch would give an unprofessional look. You can also use your fingers if you do not have makeup brushes. You can use a concealer to hide your blemishes and dark spots. Do not over do it. Just apply with a point of hiding the blemishes. Apply a compact powder to give the final touch to your makeup. Choose a shade which is natural to your skin or a shade lighter to your skin.

Take a black eyeliner and apply it to your eyes, start from the inner corner to outer corner. Close your eyes for five minutes to allow it to dry and prevent from getting smudged.. Take an eyebrow pencil and darken it meanwhile. Let it look natural. Apply Mascara on your lashes both lower and upper. Your eye makeup is done.
