Exotic Lipstick Shades for Dark - Skinned Black Women

Dark-skinned Black women oftentimes had a difficult time finding the "correct" lipstick shade for their complexion. Oftentimes they were told that they should avoid pale and/or bright lipstick shades and to stick with darker, more subdued shades. Many times dark-skinned Black women had to have lipsticks custom made for them. Until the present time, makeup companies had few shades for dark-skinned women to wear.

However, dark complected black skin ranging from dark umber to blue black tones is the perfect canvass for wearing pale and/or bright lipstick shades as there is a stark contrast between dark skin and light and/or bright lipstick shades. The rules which state that dark complected Black women should not wear light and/or bright lipstick is passe. For example, pale beige lipgloss looks very sensuous on cool umber to ebony complexions. So does a light taupe lipstick shade. A bright orange lipstick looks peachy on a warm ebony complexion.

Dark complected Black women look sensational in a hot pink lipstick shade. Pink shades of lipstick ranging from a pale pink lipgloss to a deep pink taupe lipstick adds color and pizazz to dark complected Black women, especially those with cool chocolate brown skintones. Dark complected Black women can successfully wear pale and/or bright lipstick shades. There is nothing more avant garde or cutting edge than a dark completed Black woman wearing a shocking pink shade of lipstick. Wearing lipstick is supposed to be fun-so throw out that old rule book!
