Shadowed Intent

I was thinking about, if it exists, wearing greyish blue lipstick for a few reasons, one is that it matches my eyes and another is that I do not think black would suit me.
Does it exist?, and if it does, what do you think?

It probably exists, somewhere. I would hope so.

In a number of the older threads of this subforum, people would often ask for tips on how to look best in goth fashion. One of my absolute number one rules was "Never wear black lipstick". It doesn't look good on it's own, and it makes the wearer look worse. Dark tones work fine, but black looks greasy, and will often make your teeth look nasty dirty.

Thankyou for your reply, however I do not believe black lipstick always looks bad, I have see a few people pull it off quite well, though all of them have mentioned the dangers of getting it on their teeth.

i'd say if your lips are too thick black generally doesn't look good on both but sometimes just the top works but be prepared to look like a fish. especially if you've got a hawk.

I have a lipstick that colour. Not that I ever wear it. Someone gave it to me, so sorry, I don't know where it came from. razz But I agree with GilAskan, black lipstick jsut doesn't suit. Dark colours, sure. But not black. o.<

I have changed my mind, I am going to buy some white lipstick from eBay.
I wonder if having that with a black outline would look good...

Yeah, I agree... black lipstick not so good. But when I do use it, I put dark purple or blue eye shadow over it to set and subtly color it. It's full of awesomeness.

I've never seen blue-grey, but you can probably mix a couple different colors.

just need to look in the cosmetics isle at your local mass market for some stupid name like midnight periwinkle or such.

I personally have never seen it, but I would love to.

I normally wear a very deep raspberry red...it suits me wonderfully.

I think it might look very good, but on the opposite end, could look very bad...
I guess its one of those things you'd just have to try, and hope it suits :3

depends on the shape of your lips and how you where it, along with everything else.
