How To Pull Off Black Lipstick

Always wanted to make a Halloween makeup staple your go-to lipstick shade? There’s absolutely no reason why you should be afraid of wearing black lipstick on a daily basis because it can look so beautiful and faltering. Here’s how to pull off black lipstick look.

Make your lips the focal point

Heavy makeup and black lipstick don’t pair well unless you want to look like you’re headed to a Halloween party. A warm blush and mascara are more than enough to bring balance to this makeup look.

Use the right formula

A fading black lipstick tends to look pretty spooky and unflattering, so you have to ensure that it stays put all day long. Find a good lipstick with the right formula, preferably you’ll want to stick to matte lipsticks because they tend to have the best-staying power.

Use a lip liner

Dark shades of lipstick can get messy pretty quickly, but you can easily avoid this by lining your lips with a black liner.

Go Glossy

If you’re opting for a sexy party look, choose a shiny black lip gloss that’ll add volume to your lips and make you stand out in the crowd.
