Here’s a lip color that would look amazing on pretty much everyone. It’s NYX Black Cherry round lipstick, and it costs around $4. It’s a beautiful deep berry shade with hints of blue, but it’s not too cool. Warm skin tones can definitely wear this. This lip would look extra seductive on med-to-dark skin tones, and vampy on lighter skin tones (which isn’t a bad thing at all).

DUPE ALERT!
I did find two higher-end dupes for this lipstick
So if you’ve ever wanted NARS Scarlet Empress or MAC Hang Up cremesheen, but didn’t wanna drop $14 or $24 on either one of those, Black Cherry is a suitable enough dupe.
- MAC Hang-Up – similar to Black Cherry but more mauve, with the slightest hint of microscopic shimmer
- NARS Scarlet Empress – very similar to Black Cherry, but cooler

NYX round lipsticks are a great bargain for the novice to the advanced. I love them. They’re very creamy, pigmented and have a great amount of sheen. Depending on what you’re doing with your mouth (lol), you may find these to be pretty long-wearing or not very long-wearing at all. If you’re eating, kissing, etc. it won’t last too long, but if you’re just chillin, these stick around for a while. They may lose some of their sheen, but the color remains.
If you’re looking for glam on a budget, check out NYX’s entire line of lipsticks. They’re a nice little bang for your buck.

Dammit Resha the last time you mentioned NYX lipsticks I bought 4. Now I’m going to have to buy more.
I love her comment, lol.
Ugh, my NYX lipsticks need to get here. They look like they have great color pay off. And I noticed your hair free upper lip, may have to try the Sally Hansen creme
where did you order from? and yes girl, no hair LMAO! i love that sally hansen stuff
I really like the look of this lipstick. The color is beautiful. Where can I purchase this item and how much does it cost. I really love this shade. Very sexy.
you know you’ll end up using mine lol
I want it!
I wanna try a red lip, but I’m scared. I feel like I’m too young =/
how old are you?
Wow, Black Cherry really is a beautiful color! I think the last time I tried NYX lipsticks, I would so disappointed and I ended up throwing almost all of them out (I only had about 6). I guess I should have just bought better colors, lol. Hope Black Cherry looks just as divine on me as it does on you!
i’m sure it will! just have an open mind and brave soul, you can rock any color you want
Pretty! Its like an opaque version of Clinique’s Black Honey!
oh its very opaque, i really love it!
I was considering buying this in a cherry culture haul the other day because it looked almost black in the “swatches” online so seeing this swatch was definitely helpful for me. I hate it when a company’s color descriptions are SO off. grrr
Cherry Culture’s swatches are HORRIBLE, a big reason why i had to stop shopping there LOL. im gonna need for them to get it together.
What a pretty color. I really love NYX lipsticks they are so pigmented and creamy!! I think I will have to add this one to my collection!!
this would look like pure sex on you! its very sultry
Oooh very nice! I’m gonna have to try this!
Love this color; will definitely be ordering it.
