Dark lips? You’re probably thinking you could never pull that off. That only works if you are straight out of Vogue and not the average collegiette. However, this is not the case. Here’s why dark lips are IN this season.

They make a statement

Nothing dresses up your face more than a versatile dark lip. 

They can make any look classier

A bold red lip says it all.

Or give a bada** vibe

 

Vampy lips add that extra edge.

Dark lips will make your face pop

And easily drag people’s attention toward you.

They’re bringing the 90’s trend back

Dark lips were ~so~ in then.

You can skip the liner and the gloss

Dark lipstick is opaque enough to keep you covered on its own.

You’ll definitely leave your mark

There’s nothing a good dark lip can’t stain, especially other lips.
