Dark lipstick, something I thought died away in the 90's, but is obviously making a comeback (as everything 90's is). When I think of dark lipstick, two things come to mind. One is Rayanne from "My So Called Life" who was always wearing a dark berry shade. The other is from 7th grade when a friend and I grade got really into the band Orgy and we showed up at a birthday party wearing dark lipstick via Wet n Wild at a drugstore in 1997, it definitely was not too pretty. The first thought is much better to give as a visual.
There are two shades I am debating over. They are both from YSL and really similar but one is darker.

She is wearing the darker shade but with a fun technique to lighten the look and make it look worn-in. Check out the Nasty Gal blog for the tutorial. I can't wait to try it myself!
