8 Badass Ways to Pull Off Dark Lipstick This WinterBring out your inner rockstar with these vampy plums, brick reds and blacks |
7 of 9
Allow a lipstick this dark to make its statement by keeping your eye makeup ultra-minimal. To ensure bold, long-lasting color, fill in your lips with a matching waterproof lip liner, such as Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil, $19, before following up with your lipstick. For a more dimensional look, go a little lighter on the color in the center of your bottom lip.

I think it's important for very fair-skinned women to pull off a glossy shade when wearing a vivid color. Unfortunately, I don't feel lavender/purple flatters anyone.

I like this red and wine color lips and almost these colors looks very beautiful when we ware black dress.

I'm wearing my Fresh Sugar lip treatment in Berry right now! It's so moisturizing and the tinted color gives a romantic but natural look...I love it!
