Best Lipstick Colors To Wear With a Black Dress

October 24, 2019 35 Comments

I used to think that all lipstick colors will match a black dress but that is not always the case. You will be surprised to find out that some colors do nothing to enhance your lips or your overall outfit.

Black is a neutral color so it’s natural for us to think that every lipstick is going to compliment your black dress. When you think about your lipstick, you want to think about it as the cherry on top of the cake, its to complete your look and add that finishing touch, not to take away from it.

These lipsticks work well with any black dress that you have in your wardrobe.

Wine Lipstick

Any plum or wine colored lipstick gives you a sexy and sultry look without being too harsh. Plus nothing screams fall more than a wine colored lipstick. You definitely achieve that seductive, vampy look without looking like you’re trying too hard.

Nude Lip

A nude lip is perfect to wear with a black dress especially if you’re trying to highlight the details of your dress. If your dress is sparkly or has a lot of attractive details, it’s always best to keep your hair and makeup to a minimum to focus on the dress. If all else fails, resorting to a nude lipstick is still a winner. The undertones can range from peachy to pinky so you will just have to find the perfect shade of nude to compliment your skin tone.

Last but not least is wearing a red lipstick to complete your look. A red lipstick and black dress is a timeless look that will always be sexy and fashion forward. Though it can sometimes be predictable, it is the quintessential fashion statement. If you have a lighter skin tone you’ll want to stick with a more true red while darker skin tones do better with a blue undertone.
