Black Lipstick: Yay or Nay?

Absolutely- Yay. It's a great look for night time. Generally if/when people judge you for a daring makeup/fashion choice it's because they don't have the balls to try it. I cannot tell you how many times, for my lipstick in particular, people have commented on how bright or bold of a color it is. They almost always say something like "I could never pull that off" or "I don't know how you can wear that." My answer is always, "Oh, thank you!" Several times I've seen the same people who said something wearing something similar to what they commented on after the fact. Inspire people, be a trend setter. If people don't like it, they don't have to wear it!

I say YAY but with most highly daring colors I go by guideline. A. like someone said, plan ur attire accordingly you don't wanna come off as random, B. I apply dark colors depending on the season. I think Black is perfect for fall. And C. if it looks amazing on u, go ahead. I don't see why not

I personally think it's awesome, but I can't pull it off, especially because I'm a student in school still hahaha! I guess it's a good look for Halloween for me, since that's the only time I could pull it off.

For editorials and photographs it's perfect, especially paired with flowers and a white setting. But for everyday use I go for a dark brown like MAC's Film Noir lipstick - still dramatic, but not as goth.

I think it's hard to pull off, but if you can, then go for it!(: But I wouldn't recommend wearing it everyday. Maybe try a bright pink, or a red, or a dark purpley-red color and see how you like it?(:

I think it's ok, especially for night. Too bad I cannot pull off a bold/dark lipstick look whatsoever...

Personally I wouldn't do it but that's just because I don't think it looks good on me :) If you want to do it, why not? It's your face, paint it whatever color you want!!!

Depends on what you're wearing it with or for?

Just go for it and screw what others think. Personally I can't sport the look but I certainly appreciate it when others do it.

I say Yay. I wear lipsticks that are teal, dark blue, purple, mint green, light blue, silver for everyday. Black is definitely a Yay for me.

Nay on black, yay on colors so dark they are practically black. Leave black lipstick to idiot goth kids who don't know better.
Lou gave you a great option with Cyber. It can be built to near black, so you will get a similar effect, but it's purple so it's better.
