Dark matte lip colors Stunningly deep, dark and sexy lips in everything from plum and brandy to burgundy and black are back thanks to daring makeup moguls like Kat Von D and Kylie Jenner (who, for the record, was barely born in the '90s!). The key to pulling off your own vampy lip, be it for a dinner date or for the office, is to start with proper exfoliation. Matte lip colors are known to suck the moisture out of your pout, so you'll want to exfoliate and plump with a scrub, like Fresh's Sugar Lip Polish, $24 or a micro-needling roller, like MesoLyft Lips, $79.99. Finish with a vibrant but vampy matte, like Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in Prune Virgin, $37. Touch up the edges and corners with concealer for the perfect, smudge-proof lip.
