Deep, Dark Lips

Remember when black lipgloss made a sudden splash in the summer of 2009?  So if you may have bought YSL's, Shu Uemura's, or Lancôme's limited edition gloss or lipstick (in the case of Shu) now is the time to mix it with a wine-colored or deep purple lip color.  If you never picked up any of the previously-mentioned offering, Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics has a black lip tar, MAC has a black lipmix, and Make Up For Ever has a black flash color. 

The experts behind style.com's Beauty Counter blog recommend mixing lipsticks with brown or black eye(brow) pencils!
