Brilliant red lipstick is one classic lipstick colour that looks
perfect on almost everyone. Darker skin tones however tend to absorb the
splash of colour, giving it a fine finish. If you’re looking to make a
statement or get heads turning your direction, you should totally do
red!
2. Burgundy

Dreamy, alluring, and daring burgundy lipstick is a total mood! This
shade can never go wrong. It is the right amount of provocative without
being loud. Burgundy is perfect for the cold weather as it warms up your
features, blending perfectly for an absolutely sexy glam!
3. Deep Brown

This one is a bit tricky guys. Sometimes, dark lipstick colours,
especially browns can wash out darker skin tones so ensure you test it
before purchasing. Try getting a shade that is two shades darker than
your skin tone so it doesn’t disappear into your skin.
4. Plum

Plum is literally one of the hottest lipstick colours in the market.
It is exotic, enticing, alluring and downright fab. This classy lipstick
colour is a perfect blend of red and purple which gives off a fierce ‘
bad girl‘ edgy finish. We seriously adore this shade and love the way it sits on the melanin skin.
5. Purple

See,
leave jokes, if you don’t own a purple lipstick, what
are you even doing? Like… How do you not see the dreamy and desirable
finish the purple hue leaves on darker skin? If you want to opt for a
unique shade that’ll make you stand out, try the lighter shade of
purple. Dark purple lipsticks leave you with a
tantalizing finish that gets you all the attention when you walk into a room.
6. Black
The all time vampy one! It’s never a bad idea to let out
your inner vampire. Don’t be scared to give this daring, African
Princess lipstick shade a try. If you are worried about it overpowering
or washing out your skin, dab on some lip gloss and pop that pout! It’s
nothing short of majestic, we promise.
From bright, look-at-me colours like coral and violet to dreamy and
mysterious shades of plum and black, it’s obvious there’s a wide range
of lipstick colours for dark skin to choose from.
