Saw a woman onthe train today probably in her late 30's early forties with black lipstick and i just find it to look terrible. And i work with a af ew woman that still think black lip liner with blood red lipstick is fashion forward.

You are so right.
I only wore black lipstick once for a shoot. IT IS NOT FLATTERING AT ALL

Last fall I came across this dark lipstick that looked great on me. With the right makeup and event it can be rocked. It looks better with a shiny gloss to give that high fashion look.
I would have never selected that shade. But when you play around with makeup you'd be surprised at what looks good with your complexion,face and style.

Black Lipstick isn’t just for Goths any more .Gothic Glam is going to be big this season. The models at Yves Saint Laurent were seen rocking black this look on the catwalks of both New York and London.It’s not the Goth of the 90’s, rather Goth girls’ gone upmarket, with super polished hair, smoky kohl lined eyes and glossy dark nails for a sophisticated rock chic vibe. No one doubts this would be an extremely hard look to pull off and I have yet to see anyone (apart from that emo girl in Holloaks) be brave enough to try this. Those not so brave can try dark browns, berries and plum shades to wear this trend with a softer edge.

The 80’s flash look that was also present at last season’s catwalk has morphed in to a more subdued palette. Bold cheeks are still present and so are matte lip colours. Zingy yellows and electric blues have all been replaced for darker hues, such as navy’s and plums in time for the leaves turning red. Worn properly this look can make even the most unremarkable face look contoured. Take care not to wear every aspect of this look all at once though; no one wants to look like Madonna circa 1985.

At the other end of the spectrum, the natural look was prominent. Designers off-set their bold edgy, dark designs with models with little to no make-up on. The key idea for this trend is nude lips and eyes with a wash of colour on the cheeks and a strong, groomed eyebrow. Make Up artist Bobbi Brown says in her book “Beauty” that almost every woman needs to fill in her brows as part of her normal beauty routine. So for this look try Benefit’s Brow and Liner Kit and save on your threading allowance. If the idea of going nude fills you with dread, lighten up with touches of highlight or bronzer to stop you looking washed out.
