    BLACK CHERRY LIPS

    We spotted dark, vampy red lips all over the fall runways, from burgundy to almost black. But a red this deep demands perfection. Start with a matching lip pencil to keep the color from smudging, bleeding, and fading unevenly. To ensure clean edges, paint on a creamy lipstick with a stiff brush. You can amp up the intensity by adding layers. And since the bold hue washes out many skin tones, don't leave the house without blush.

    To re-create the look, try:
    (1) Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipcolor in Plum Perfect
    (2) Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Crimson
