8 Badass Ways to Pull Off Dark Lipstick This WinterBring out your inner rockstar with these vampy plums, brick reds and blacks |

Black lipstick sounds extreme, but this look makes it wearable by keeping the complexion and eyes almost bare. Choose a sheer black -- as opposed to an opaque color -- to avoid crossing over into Morticia Addams territory.
Again, try leaving the center of the bottom lip lighter for a more dimensional, ombré look.

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!
