Black Lips, The Hottest Lipstick Trend Right Now

If bold lips is your thing then you need to try the hottest lipstick trend this season - black lips. Black is not all about being gothic. You can wear the shade and ace the look just like when you sport red or pink lips. You only need to dare to experiment and see it for yourself that it can actually be worn with daily ensembles to add some drama and a stylish edge. Hard to believe? Do a quick search and you will find that celebs like Beyonce, Rihanna, Gigi Hadid and Kylie Jenner are loving this trend and have been sporting black lips like a pro.

For a long time bright matte lips have been a popular trend, particularly during the hotter months. Of course it works wonders to add instant glam and elevate one's look. In the recent months we have also seen people loving deep maroon and purple lips. The colour black maybe attention seeking, but the truth is that if you wear it right, it can be your perfect tool to make everyday style look super cool. Ever since it made its appearance in English fashion designer Giles Deacon's fall 2015 show in London, it has been garnering quite some attention. But it is only of lately that we are seeing celebs and beauty bloggers going all out to sport black lips.

To flaunt any lipstick colour and make your lips look flawless, the number one point to remember is exfoliation. It may seem like a task but just a few minutes spent exfoliating your lips can work wonders to perfect your look, especially when you sport dark lips. This way you can get rid of chapped skin and get a smooth look. Another trick that makeup artists suggest to ace black lips is to apply a layer of gloss on top for a more luxurious finish.
