THErina Shayk and Katie Holmes choose dark lipsticks. Extra dark, almost black, for the top, burgundy for the actress thus inaugurating the season of dark lipsticks. Intense, perhaps daring, certainly extremely elegant, lips in darker shades are now a real passe-partout for the winter season.
Irina Shayk and Katie Holmes, the triumph of dark lipsticks
At the Savage x Fenty show-event, Rihanna’s lingerie line, Irina Shayk sported charcoal gray, almost black lipsperfect nuance for the put by Junya Watanabe. A extremely refined choice but also nonconformist, which suggests a desire for rebellion, it is no coincidence that the black nuance refers to the whole gothic and punk world.
Less dramatic, but equally impactful, the lipstick chosen by Katie Holmes. On the occasion of the CFDA Fashion Awards Gala, the American actress focused on burgundy shade in perfect harmony with the manicure.
Extremely refined, referring to the charm of sequins and sequins of the 1920s, noir mouths need a great personality to be worn and require you to leave your comfort zone. For this, are they really suitable for everyone?

Dark lips, like wearing dark lipsticks
To answer the question, yes dark lipsticks are indeed for everyone. The important is choose the right shade based on your skin undertone. For fair skin, from cold and almost lunar undertone, the most suitable are the darker ones such as plum, violet, grape pomace. Nuances that contain hints of blue in the formulation and that go well with such a clear skin, as Irina Shayk and Katie Holmes demonstrate.
If, on the other hand, the undertone is more sunny and amber, it is better then to focus on colors made warm by red: brick, some shades of marc and burgundy are the most suitable in these cases.
The application is fundamental. The gothic colors need an impeccable draftingthe burr is in fact around the corner and above all they accentuate the smallest defect. For this the mouth must be perfect, soft and hydrated, without cuticles.
Bright and flawless bases for gothic lips
Intense and dramatic, dark lips deserve to be the protagonists. As Irina and Katie teach, make-up must be natural and radiant. Quinn Murphy, make-up artist who made up Katie Holmes, focused on a peach blush that sculpted the actress’s cheekbones and on a look made intense by the application of false eyelashes to thicken.
Irina Shayk instead chose a darker make-up, with a very clear and flawless base to enhance her undertoneand a delicate pass of impalpable blush. The eyebrows are also in the foreground: natural, perfectly designed, combed and defined to frame the look.
