Cool Trend for Fall — Black Lipstick!

Black lips — am I crazy? Well, this is not an everyday look, but for going out this Fall (and of course for all the cool Halloween parties you’re going to), black lipstick can be fun and some are even surprisingly sheer and wearable!

Two of my favorites are:

Black Tie Optional Lipstick ($18.00) and Shine Gloss ($22.00). The sheer black lipstick shade is meant to be worn underneath your favorite lip color to deepen the tone and enrich the color while the Shine Gloss can we worn over colors to add gloss as well as a deeper shade. Both can be worn on their own to give lips a smoky look. It’s a little vampire, a little goth but totally chic for the right occasions! Like all of Poppy’s (the Lipstick Queen) products, they are moisturizing and feel great on.

Urban Decay Lipstick ($22.00) — Oil Slick is a sheer black with a touch of glitter. Like the Lipstick Queen’s lipstick you can wear it under or over other colors. To create an entirely vamp look, try it over Urban Decays deep red Gash lipstick. Very cool. This one also looks great on its own, and the sparkle makes it perfect for a night out. Like all of the fabulous Urban Decay lipsticks, Oil Slick  “nourishes and protects lips with Vitamins A, C, and E. Hyaluronic Spheres are added to stimulate cellular function, prevent dehydration, and fill-in lines and wrinkles—now, how many Lipsticks can do that?! The teardrop-shape bullet (etched with an Urban Decay logo) is infused with a decadent crème caramel scent and flavor.” Visit www.urbandecay.com to purchase.
