I like black lipstick, and like almost everybody else has said, it looks well if you do it right. I can wear it and have it look good, but usually when it wears off I can't redo the look for some reason. Very frustrating.
I can never find any lipstick that is dry though. I know it sounds wierd, but for me, that's the only way black lipstick would work well so I could redo it if I wanted to. I used to have this really nice dark brown lipstick and it was
very dry, I had to put lip gloss on afterwards for it to look good. But unlike some lipsticks it never bled, that's the problem I have with black. Everyone I get bleeds for some reason.
