I happen to love the way black lipstick looks, but only with minimal makeup. Cakey foundation, crazy eye makeup, and bold blush, and bronzer is too overwhelming for my eyes. With the black lips being the focus point is very artsy and daring. I love it, I want to wear it to school soon, but I know everyones going to freak out!

Yay!

if people at school freak out, that's their problem.

Go for it. I've been wanting to do a dark purple/black lip for school too, with a soft, nude face, but have chickened out. Do it for me! :D

go for it. i'm all about lipstick colors...red, bold oranges, purples (plum to barney purple lol)
Trying anything 'out there' in public is always kinda scary at first. Yeah, people will freak out but WHO CARES! I think you should go for it :)

I like the high fashion look of black lips but honestly I wouldn't wear it for everyday, that's just me. I think cyber by mac is a nice was to build up to black, its a deep dark purple and can be applied very dark, it might be a good colour to have as is a bit more everyday friendly but is dark and can be built up and if your not completely sold on black... might be a good way to go.

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. 

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.

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.

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

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!!!

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

Nay for me...
I don't think it'll suit my skin color

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?(:

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 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.
