I do own a blackish plum colour ( not proper black though ) , but rarely wear it, and when I do I just dab it on for a light application as a proper application doesn't look right on me.

I have small lips and deep colours applied strongly/heavily have always seemed to make my mouth look all pursed up and tiny like a cats bum.

I can get away with berry shades a bit better.

But on the whole I don't wear lipstick often, I just stick with eyes since I know I can get away with that .

I can also say I haven't seen anyone wearing black lipstick. It did make a comeback on the catwalks fairly recently if I recall a few newpaper articles with photos.... but in terms of on the street... no. Not seen it about.

To be honest , VERY few people can pull it off well.
