Noir Lipstick: More Glam Than Goth


    Three Custom Color Specialists recently launched a new lip stick and gloss, Noir. The lip stick makes the black lipstick trend of last Fall wearable by anyone this Spring. It looks great on the model in the photo. But what about on us pale, Irish girls?

    Below are photos of me wearing this in different lighting situations. I believe the pigments work slightly differently on everyone who wears it, so it won't look the same on any two people.

    I also really like wearing it over a light pink to give it a slightly different look (I used Lipstick Queen's Float). I have blue eyes and this is one of those colors that helps make your eyes sparkle (at least on me it has that effect).

    The lip stick itself is very sheer and hydrating. Because it is so sheer, it wears slightly better than a lip gloss, but not as well as a full color lip stick. This is also layerable, so one swipe gives you a nice touch of color, but a few more and you are ready for a more dramatic look,

    What do you think? Tell me in the comments!

    I bought this product with birthday money.
