Black Lips

The makeup at Yves Saint Laurent's Fall Winter 2008 show had tongues wagging. All that could be seen on the porcelain models was glossy goth black lips. YSL makes makeup, and even at $35-$40 their black lip gloss has already sold out. Manic Panic makes a matte black lipstick for $6.50. Personally, I couldn't go for solid black, but I do love dark lip especially when I'm dressed sugary sweet. My choice for this 90s revival trend is Urban Decay's "Apocalypse", a deep blackberry color. It reminds me of the lipstick I wore in middle school, but at least now I'd be aware of how I look. Would you wear dark lipstick, or is it too costumey for you?

I think I'd actually like to try a black lip for a night out. Maybe I'll get the Manic Panic and try it out.

I think it could be fun on you because you have such a sweet face and you smile far more than a native Detroiter should.

I love the idea of glossy black lips....just can't achieve it though...

I don't think I look good in lipstick in general, but maybe I'm wrong. I think dark lipstick looks great on some people.
