Black lipstick is a matter of taste.
I wear it, and I think it does push me closer to what I want from my looks and style, but it has its dos and donts:
First - it's impossible to put it on without lipliner. And believe me, I have tried, and nothing works out.
Second - if you put on black lipstick, you GOTTA make your eyes dark too. Otherwise, it really looks stupid.
Third - white foundation/compact is a must with black lipstick.

Okay, so black lipstick just reflects my artistic nature and inner world... I have lots of time and patience when it comes to makeup, and with lots and lots of practice and attention it became a huge part of what I am... I don't wear it to school or such places - it's really not the occasion. Black lipstick looks too much when worn by itself, that's for sure. Usually people that don't pay lots of attention to their look, wear it "as is". And that makes it look OTT.
It's a shocking color. But it's not over the top at all if you are a fan of lots of makeup and shocking looks... If people didn't like it and wear it, it wouldn't exist.
