Deep, rich skin tones look incredible in so many lipstick colors from creamy nudes to the most vibrant reds. The LiveGlam lippie treasure trove is filled with saturated shades that look stunning against deep skin.
Here are 5 lipstick shades for dark skin tone to try in 2022!
Red, red, red

What’s more striking than a bright, opaque red lip against deep, gorgeous skin? If you have cool skin, go for a blue-based red. For warmer skin, an orangey red is a winner.
Goals: the brightest, spiciest, most neon-esque red ever. There’s a touch of orange in this red, so it leans warm.
Spicy: I describe this as a true red, with a little extra depth.
Apple Cider: this deep red has a touch of blue-based berry and a more muted aesthetic than truer, brighter reds.
Bright pink

Bright pink is like red’s gigglier, younger sister who just wants to have fun…and happens to suit almost any skin tone. A bright fuschia, bubblegum, or hot rose shade pops against the deepest skin tones.
Bday Kisses: this shade really is a candy, Barbie, summer fun shade. It’s a bright pink with a neutral undertone (I can see blue AND orange tones in there or am I completely off the mark?).
Bragin Fruit: this, to me, is the most beautiful magenta shade as it has enough depth to make it ideal for all seasons. The blue-based undertone is stunning on cooler skin tones and is a perfect substitute for red. You could also wear this as more of a stain, pressed softly into the lips and topped with a balm.
Rich berry and Plum

Berry and plum shades give color and a little drama without being a “feature” like red or bright pink. These shades are beautiful for cooler deep skin as they tend to have blue undertones.
A matte plum shade that is ever so slightly muted so it’s a wearable everyday shade, especially great for Fall and Winter. Against medium, deep, and dark skin tones, this shade is modern yet classic.
This shade is a little brighter, with a more magenta undertone and a bit of “pow” for when you feel like something a little fresher. Adding a clear or slightly tinted gloss on top brings light, texture, and gleam when matte just doesn’t quite fit the day.
