Very Dark Lipstick


Dark lipstick can make a bold statement and even add drama to an outfit, especially during colder seasons. However, it’s important to know that intense shades like deep burgundy, plum, or black cherry can also have the unintended effect of aging your face. These colors tend to shrink the appearance of the lips and emphasize fine lines around the mouth, particularly as lips naturally thin with age.

Instead of harsh, dark shades, opting for nude tones or soft rosy hues can be far more flattering. These lighter colors reflect light, creating the illusion of fuller lips and a fresher complexion. If you still crave a richer look, try a tinted balm or a moisturizing lipstick in a berry or mauve tone that adds color without aging the overall look.
