At the spring shows, Jason Wu and Rodarte sent models down the runways sporting extremely deep wine lips and jet black lip tints. These vampy hues suddenly seemed fresh and slightly mysterious.
A dark lip during the summer is totally unexpected, and creates a fashionable juxtaposition of color and personality that makes a statement.
There is a wide variety of dark red, purple, brown, and black shades to pucker up with, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find one that suits your skin tone best. When going with an extra deep shade, skip the full face of make-up, and don’t even think about using lip liner.
A clean face highlights a dark shade, while too much extra make-up can end up looking clownish and borderline goth. All you need is a swipe of mascara, and you’re good to go.
Whatever your plans are this summer, a new dark lip color is just the remedy to break up the monotony of your summer beauty routine wherever you go.
So get on top of this trend and try these dark hues right now.
