I tried out this lipglass tonight and I really love it. It looks good full strength lol for a nice evening look and sheered out for a nice light burgundy stain on the lips. I will b2m this next week.

You would look great with patent black lips.

Blazeno.8,

Love the pics You have definitely given me some ideas.

I was able to dupe the Sci Fi Delity/Pop Mode look with Viva Glam IV and Dark Flower lipglass. Same look also achieved using Solar Plum with Dark Flower.

Dark Flower was LE, but when I run out I will replace it with Pop Mode because they are virtually identical. Ditto with Sci Fi Delity and Solar Plum: the only way I can tell the difference between them and VGIV is the color of the tube.

I am so amp about the fall color. It is so right up my alley.. I love bold lips.

I remember back in high school Revlon had a color that was the perfect berry stain so I'm going to look for it. Either that or I'll get a tube of Clinique Black honey. It's not that dark but it's a good old standby.

[mtrimier]

i think that is the only thing I am looking forward to in CoC.

[GlamYOURUs]

I love reds and berries colored lippies.

My fav for a berry color is the Mattene lipstick in Rougette, its beautiful and suited for all skintones. Its actually darker in RL than in the pics.

This one is really an early fall fashion color (not traditional season color).
Cherry lip liner
Port Red lipstick LE
Cult of Cherry lipglass LE

The picture doesn't really capture the dimension of this combo. A natural light picture might.

I'm still trying to figure it out... I think just a classic creamy look. Nothing too heavy. Smokey golden midtone brown at the darkest.

[blazeno.8]

Black "lipsitck" (let's just call it that until my lipmix arrives soon).
Possibly left over red lipstick from earlier....
Cult of Cherry lip glass

Thanks for that suggestion....I'll use either last year's "smoking" quad or 2006's warm eyes palette and maybe ablaze or mountain high blush.

i got that catelogue also. the cat eye was gorgeous but i've never really been into the whole darker shades on the lips. the only way i will if it's a gloss and even then i'll still do something to lighten it up

darker shades make me look gangsta... lol! i used to wear them when i was younger and when i look at pics now i'm like "DAMN!!!"

i do however, think they're good for the fall because that's typically how it goes... in the fall you get your darker colors. i don't know... i've just always felt like the darker the lip shade, the more harsh i look

idk, i might try it this fall though because the colors i've seen are great

These are the jewels . I can't wait to try it with purple ...

I don't usually wear darker lipsticks (i'm usually a nude, peach, pink or midtone color girl) but I like the look. I don't think I wear it nearly as often because I haven't gotten used to it on my face. I do plan to get Bing or Kirsch mattenes from Cult of Cherry launch but one combo that I love when I want to do a darker berry is:

Vino l/l
Dark Side l/s
Bold Heart l/g

So pretty. I got this look from a MAC artist at the counter. I told her I wanted something different than my usual nudes and this is what she came up with. Its a very pretty combo.

Blazeno I love this look

Black Lipstick

I love cherry looks.. i got the Mattene Lipstick from the COC collection in BING along with Jampacked Lipglass and it is AMAZINGGGG!!

I usually try to stick to neutral/simple eyes when i am doing a dark lip... just so there is not too much going on and I don't scare little children. Though I like to on occaision.

[BenefitAddict]

Cyber is a pretty good color.
I'm fair-skinned so it looks pretty dramatic next to my skin.
However I think it would look better on dark-skinned women.

[LuvinMyMAC]

I really love the dark lipstick look. I've always been a fan of them. So I guess this is the time I can finally use my Spice-ickle l/s.. .

[blazeno.8]

Something like 4N and Black (I think). There might be some other stuff thrown into the mix, but that's basically what got it this dark.

This one just has a bit of Rushmetal pigment in the middle.

[Lapis]

oh Rose go round from color forms is great for this look, it's a lovely rich color, sadly all the pics I have of it are after hours of wear but I'll snap a new on this weekend

[S.S.BlackOrchid]

I usually wear dark red lipstick, even in the summer in daytime. I am interested in trying a dark rose though.

[LatinaRose]

I love the drama of dark lips!! But I'm still getting used to them on me. I still need them to be a little bright. I love Rougette with Pink Poodle on top, but that's all I've tried it with. I'm happy I scooped it up even though I was a bit unsure of it. I only purchased CoC lipglass and still need to experiment with it.

So in short, I love dramatic dark lips, but for me they still need to be in the deep red and fuchsia category. No burgundy, black, brown for me.
