As cliche as it is, every year around this time we find ourselves whipping out the darker, more vampy lipsticks. Don't know the inclinations that means for our psyche, but I do know dark lippies look really good. Well, needless to say, I have accumulated a ton of deeper shades in my lippie collection, but I thought I'd narrow it down to my top five must-haves...you know, just in case you wanted to take a walk on the dark side (sorry, that sounded a lot cooler in my head).
♥Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick in Melted Berry - For those of you who aren't ready to take the plunge into the world of ultra-dark lippies, this is a good start. Melted Berry is a deeper berry shade with very flattering pink undertones.
♥LA Splash Lip Couture Waterproof Liquid Lipstick in Vampire - Now if you need a formula that will not budge, this is definitely the one for you. Personally, I'm not a fan of the scent, but I can look past it because of the shade. This is not just your run of the mill deep red, this liquid lipstick contains micro-shimmer throughout that gives it a semi-metallic finish. However, due to its waterproof nature, I'd recommend wearing a lip balm underneath.
♥Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Train Bleu - An iconic shade that always seems to be sold out at Sephora, Train Bleu is the deepest a plum shade can get. What I like is that the formula is very soft, smooth, and pigmented. The pencil format is convenient for lining and filling in the lips, as well as for on-the-go purposes.
♥NYX Intense Butter Lip Gloss in Black Cherry Tart - If you're feeling like a little daredevil, a glossier dark lip is right up your alley. Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a gloss, the Intense Butter Gloss collection from NYX packs a punch in the color department. I love this particular shade because somehow the deepness makes the purple more wearable in my opinion.
♥Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick in Potion - A step below wearing straight up black on your lips, Potion is a deep dark violet shade (purple with blue undertones). While it may not be the most daytime appropriate lippie, it does look good for a night out or even Halloween.
Vampy lips are by far one of my favorite fall trends to pull off, but I must admit that it makes me look really pale. Not really an issue a little self-tanner can't fix. But enough rambling. Now that you know my top five, I'd like to know yours. C'mon, cough it up!
