Trend Lips

The weather is cold outside, but it won't be for long. Which means I only have a bit more time to rock the dark lips. I love this lip trend, dark berry lips, they were all over the fall runways. The beauty of this trend is that it works for ALL skin tones. I decided to share with you some of my favorite berry lip shades.

 You can achieve this look with either drug store products or higher end. In the pictures I'm wearing Night Violet from MAC, with the Annabelle lipliner & MAC lipglass just in the center of my lips to make them appear fuller (best trick ever!)

With such a bold lip its better to tone down the rest of the make-up look. A simple winged liner is what I think looks best.

Out of all the products listed below Night Violet provides the deeper more intense lip color. On the other hand Most Popular is a sheer berry color for those who want to rock the trend but not full force. The Covergirl Lipcolor last ALL day, it requires minimum touch ups.

Some of the shades are LE but you can get them in blog sales or at CCOs. I got Night Violet in a blog sale, it came out with the Style Black Collection. Another option in MACs permanent line is Cyber.
