7 Purple Lipsticks That Look Great on Dark Skin
In honor of Prince’s passing last week, it’s only right that I share my love of purple on the blog today. And what better way to showcase my love a particular c0lor than to do so with lipstick swatches? If you’ve been here for a while you are no stranger to my lipstick collection. Indeed, I can tell you with absolute certainty that I probably own every lipstick shade under the sun. If I don’t own it, I own enough colors to create it. Let’s face it, folks, I admittedly have problem. Thankfully, this problem is helpful to the many ladies who visit here to see how a lipstick shade looks on dark skin tones. We all know that cosmetic companies aren’t the best at showing how a shade might translate on dark skin, which is when you begin to rely on makeup hoarders like yours truly to help out.
This week, I give you 7 purple lipsticks that look great on dark skin. From drugstore to department store, I got you! Take a look:
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Havanna $5.99
Colourpop Cosmetics Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick in Bedazzled $6
Milani Matte Lipstick in Glam $5
Pretty Zombie Cosmetics 3 Witches $14
Mac Cosmetics Heroine Lipstick $17
Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Ayesha $20

What’s your favorite purple lipstick?
Hey, Boo! My name is Lisa and you’ve stumbled upon my own little corner of the world. I’m a 30 something-year-old writer/mother/wife who happens to love lipstick, high heels, blackness, and the truth. You’ll find a mix of everything on this site, so I won’t bore you by trying to define this space. I hope you stay awhile!
Love purple lipsticks!! My favourites would have to be Wet n Wild Sugar Plum Fairy and Revlon Matta Balm in Shameless!
Ayesha is giving me life!!!
