    With my fair skin I’d look like Marilyn Manson. I’ll skip , thank you …But I still want the YSL black gloss. It’s pretty to look at in the bottle x)

      And that’s a bad thing?

      I think every girl needs at least one black gloss, right? Right? I’m trying to convince myself this is true, LOL, so I can get one!

    I’ll definitely wear it dark and vampy…I’ve also very fair skin, but I still think it will work with my dark hair. And I don’t mind looking a bit goth, I mean, it’s just makeup in the end and why not experiment and have some fun? I’m really looking forward to get Bing :)

      You all make me feel silly for not rockin’ the vampy lip!

    i wanna loose the extra pounds cuz i was going through my vogue magazine the other day and the trend is so gothic this fall season with that makeup it’lll look so fierce.. I saw a pair of gucci skinny pants with these gold kinda chains on the side it sounds horrific but trust me it looked amazin it had these leather buckles at the bottom..

    vampy.
    nc42 skin ..and I’ve been wearing it already..by itself(one coat of mascara..nuance on cheeks). I’ve been getting this all week (you must know your beautiful???)..I’m like huh!??!.lol so yeah you tan/dark girls better get on the trend. Just pick the right color (kirsch- great choice).

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Wow, that’s crazy! You must look fierce, Lala ;) Haev you been wearing Kirsch, or other colors, too?

    I would go for both wampy or a 30-thies make up.

  6. Morgan

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’ll skip. I hate lipstick and its ilk, so I’m definitely the wrong person for this trend. Maaaaybe a berry lipstain, but that’s about as far as I’ll go.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Maybe a berry stain is a way for me to get on board, too.

  7. Ummilkhair

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I would love to try it, but I’m having trouble finding colors to compliment my skin tone… nc45

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I’d like a dark lip that doesn’t take over my face, still searching, like you!

  8. Nell

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I´ll wear it as a stain or very lightly and sheerly applied, with pink cheeks (Pleasantry Mineralize blush) and nothing on eyes but black mascara. I have this look on today with a mix of 5N and Back to Del Rio lipsticks (I´m really fair, so those two are quite dark on me) and I think it looks great. I still have to wait for CoC, but I´m in training for it, LOL ;)

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      LOL! I need to get into training, too!

    When I think of dark lipstick, I think of high school and I cringe. Don’t know if I can go back to that look. =/

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      LOL, you are not alone with this concern!

  10. cloudburst

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’ll wear it dabbed on with my fingertips, so its dark but sheer and with no gloss so it’s still matte. Warm flushed cheeks, black mascara and tightlined eyes.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I think that’s what I’ll try next!

  11. valentina

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I don’t like dark lipstick so I’ll skip this fall trend and I’ll fall back on Clinique Red-y to wear ;-)

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Red-y to Wear is a perfect way to go bold instead of just dark!

  12. Kella

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I have full, naturally red lips.. so I always try to get AWAY from that look and tone down the colour of my lips…. but I think since it’s “in” this season, I may embrace it again. I’d put on an opaque skin coloured lipstick, then wear a deep berry or red gloss over it. Then bare or neutral eye with liner and mascara.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      You don’t know how many women envy your lips, Kella ;P

  13. Rabi

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I can’t wait! After seeing Bing and Kirsch in person, I don’t think that they’re for me. They’re a little too brown for my skin (oh, I tried that in high school. But I’m really loving “O” lipstick, and Liquer lipglass. Alta Moda, Nar’s Daredevil, and Bazaarish lipglass: I can’t wait for fall. I’m going with a sheer plum and taupe eye, Orpheus or Dipdown liners, and black curling mascara.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I think I will end up getting O :) It’s perm, so I figured I didn’t have to rush it!

  14. Erin/slipnslide

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I will be using my Viva Glam VI and other darker lipsticks I already have and never use! :)
    I really thought long and hard about Kirsch but my MA fried was like “Erin… will you ever use it? I don’t want you to buy it if you’re not going to.” I really highly doubt I would. Maybe I’ll grab a darker gloss, just to adopt some of the look.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      LOL, good call, Erin ;)

      I know how you feel. I look at Bing and wonder what I was thinking!

  15. Lingping

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’ve got cravings for a nice dark plum/mauve gloss. That way it won’t be all out dark and vampy, but still pretty dark (I’ve got quite pigmented red lips too).

    Soft pink cheeks and equally soft gray smoky eyes should look well with a gloss like that, I think :)

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I’ll probably opt for darker plums and mauves as glosses rather than super dark lips, too.

  16. Melissa

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    i think i’d use it a gloss but i got some dupes from Walgreens since its just a trend. I got the Sally Hansen Lacquer shine in poppy and lily which are on sale for 2/5.99 so it was a cheap way of buying the cherry and dark cherry kind of look without having to burst my pocket and then not use them… :)

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Good idea to get cheaper alternatives, Melissa!

  17. Cheryl

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’m skipping it. I love the new colours that MAC has put out with Cult of Cherry, but they just wouldn’t work with my pale skin. I prefer a dramatic eye and neutral lips, anyway.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I’m with you on the dramatic eyes ;)

  18. shimmermoss

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    i want to try this but my lips are soooo small i wouldn’t dare…

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Awww! You should at least try it at home ;P

  19. Lydia

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I think I might skip on it because I just don’t like it very much!

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I’m trying to embrace it, but I’m having a tough time myself!

  20. Kate

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’ll wear the darker l/s colors as a stain with neutral eyes.

  21. HeavenLeiBlu

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    NOT AT ALL. I tend to go with what looks good on me. It’s rare that I’ll adopt a trend and try to adjust it to make it flattering for myself, and this is one of those times where I just won’t bother.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      This is usually my take, too ;)

  22. Aprilrobin

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I have to experiement a lot, these dark lips remind me so much of my goth days in high school and the early 90’s.

    I bought a few of the deep purples and browns and I have to get used to seeing them on myself. I’ve been nudes for way too long I guess.

    My boyfriend however, LOVES the dark lips. He’d probably like it if I wore black lipstick.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Haha! At least your boyfriend loves ‘em ;) Mine HATES them!

  23. Donna

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    The dark, vampy lip doesn’t look good on me so I’ll be skipping it completely. I’ll save those colors for my toes lol.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      I know exactly how you feel, Donna!!

  24. Maren

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I will try the dark lipsticks at the store, but I will probably end up with the darker glosses, because they are sheerer. I would wear them with black eyeliner and a light sweep of red blush (e.g. Merrily).

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      This sounds like what I’ll probably end up doing, Maren!

  25. Carrie

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’m fair but I love the dark lips, all kinds *except* opaque and glossy…that’s too costumey for me. But I love Underworld, it’s one of my favorite colors, Nars Viridiana, PS Kiss, and OPI Suzi Says Da (yeah, it’s a lipstick, seems kind of like Bing but more dry) and for a lighter look I like Strange & Exotic or Retrofluid which on me is a sheer but deep plum-brown. I will totally be wearing these throughout the cold weather months, with a silver-fawn-taupe eye, and bundled up with gray sweaters, yummy!

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Ohh, you are rockin’ some of the fiercest colors, Carrie! So jealous.

  26. Shortiee31

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I will have to skip as I am not to keen on the look on myself and also I will be studying again soon so won’t be appropriate I don’t think! x

  27. betsy

    Saturday, August 23, 2008

    I’ll probably skip it, but if I do wear it, it’ll be sheerly with a *teeny* amount of stain and some gloss!

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Haha, I’m with you! Tiny bit of a stain!

  28. Alma

    Sunday, August 24, 2008

    I’m not going to wear, It would look terrible on me.

  29. sophia

    Sunday, August 24, 2008

    i wear it like a sheer stain

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      That’s a great idea, Sophia!

  30. marsina

    Sunday, August 24, 2008

    I love, love love this trend. I really don’t care for nude lips. I’m very light skinned(NC15 is too dark on me by October), with black hair and I need color on my lips. I’ve got full lips with a lot of natural color so I gravitate toward any lips that are red or obnoxiously bright. I’ll wear a Jampacked or Cult of Cherry sheered out for when I’m wearing no other makeup. The mattenes I’ll wear every day, sometimes with a light eye, sometimes with a smoky or bright eye. If I want it less vampy, I’ll use Sublime Culture lipliner, and if I’m going all out I’ll use Velvetella. I’m excited to try Chockful because I’ve never liked brown lipsticks but when I tried it on, I liked what I saw.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Ahh, you make me so envious, Marsina :)

  31. JackA.

    Sunday, August 24, 2008

    I generally don’t do lipsticks unless they’re paler or neutral. Not because I’m against-I <3 my Cyber-but I just prefer to play my eyes up since my lips already have enough attention on them, what with being as full as they are. However, I’ve really been into doing the wine stain lip, taking berry gloss or lipstick and just focusing on the center of my lips, making it look like (as one MAC MA put it) “biting into a bloody apple”.

    One current trend I’m really happy to see is this season’s fixation on Chartruese. I knew there was a reason I picked up NARS’ Rated R duo earlier this year…

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      What lipstick/gloss do you find works best for the center of your lips trick? Sounds sexy!

  32. kat

    Sunday, August 24, 2008

    Really not for me, I’m glad other people seem to be into it though!

  33. dee

    Monday, August 25, 2008

    I’m not quite sure. I bought Bing and Jampacked so I’ve got those to experiment with. It’s crazy early to be discussing it, but I know I’m dressing up as a Robert Palmer girl for Halloween, so I know I’ll be wearing a vampy red at least once.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      As long as you have at least one occasion to wear it, Dee!

  34. sweetyheart

    Monday, August 25, 2008

    I’ll try a dark, berry-coloured lip, but I wouldn’t wear black. I like trying different lip trends, but the people around me don’t, which really makes me seem like the odd one out. Last year was my last year of university, and I got the strangest looks for wearing red lipstick to school!

  35. SnickerDoodle

    Monday, August 25, 2008

    I think Jampacked is about as dark as I’m comfortable going. I’m just too scared of the dark lip. I think Bing is gorgeous and I have a major lust for it, but I’m a scaredy cat.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Me too, SnickerDoodle! I just can’t seem to get over it.

  36. Angi

    Monday, August 25, 2008

    I didn’t think I was going to wear it at all. Until I went to MAC last week to check out the Cult of Cherry stuff and had a makeover done. The MA used Kirsh with Liquer on top and I loved it. Wandered around with it on to make sure I could get used to it. Well, I got compliments on my lips so needless to say, I bought it. I’ll probably wait till it cools off before I wear it.

    • Christine

      Monday, August 25, 2008

      Nice! I will have to try this combo, ANgi! Thanks!

  37. Amy

    Wednesday, August 27, 2008

    It was love at first sight for Bing for me. I think I’ll wear it every way I can think of- alone, as a stain, with a lighter lipgloss over it. I just got it yesterday and already, I’m thinking of buying a backup. Not a fan of nude lips- even VGV, makes me look like a zombie. So I’m very happy with the dark lippies. Yay for CoC! :)

    • Christine

      Tuesday, September 2, 2008

      Wow :D I’m so impressed!

  38. Roslyn

    I’m all over this look like whoa. Maybe that should be your September challenge?

    I have lots of red and dark lipsticks at home but I tend to wear them more when not at work because my workplace tends to be a somewhat more conservative environment. However, I have all kinds: bluish reds, brownish reds, plums, even a recently purchased bright orange that my friend convinced me to purchase cuz apparently I can pull it off. However, I have to admit that even for a bolder person like me, it took some courage for me to purchase and wear the orange one… Ever since purchasing it, I have worn it 3 times. Of course, it does not help when the boyfriend hates it and tells me that when I wear it, I remind him of his grandma, cuz, apparently, it’s the shade of lipstick that she used to wear! LOL! I try not to be offended and, just to make him pay for his comment, I might even wear it on purpose when he is around!!>>>

    • Christine

      Tuesday, September 2, 2008

      Gotcha! I wouldn’t wear red lips to work myself, I don’t think!
