Five Best Lipsticks for Achieving the Perfect Vampy Lips

Autumn is in full blast with changing leaves and the recent Harvest moon. With Halloween creeping up, what better time to break out the vampy lips. Vampy lips can be a staple to your beauty routine, or something to try out when you’re feeling like re-enacting your favorite vampire movies. The lips are the focus with this look and best to keep the rest of your makeup low-key.  If you’re trying to channel your inner goth, adding a thin cat eye will only work in your favor. I’ve got you with five of the best dark lipsticks to showcase your dark side:

 

 

Too Faced Melted Matte in Drop Dead Red

Hands down this is my favorite lipstick ever. The color goes on smoothly and it doesn’t dry out your lips like some formulas do. This treasure is made for the busy goddesses out there that don’t have time to re-apply their lip color; It stays on and in place forever.

This dark cherry hue will garner attention and compliments all day, so wear with caution. You can find this lipstick at Sephora or Ulta.

 

 

 

 

 

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Transylvania

 

 

This shade sounds like it’s coming from Dracula’s castle. An affordable alternative that pairs well with a pale face. If you’re looking to be a vampire this Halloween, the hue of this lipstick is perfect for fake blood. Unlike most matte lip colors, this formula isn’t drying and it’s perfect for layering color on. It can be found at Ulta.

 

 

 

 

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Vampira

 

Kat Von D knows how to rock the vampy look better than most. The packaging of this lip color will have you feeling like the vampire queen of your dreams. This liquid lipstick takes some layering to get

dark, but it’ll make those fangs look pearly white. This gem can be found at Sephora.

 

 

 

 

 

 

     

Maybelline Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick in Possessed Plum

 

For a more affordable vamp look, Maybelline’s Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick has got your back. It goes on dark, so try to apply a thin layer and wait for it to dry before putting on a second coat. It will give you all the goth vibes. You can find this at Ulta.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sephora Rouge Cream Lipstick in Bewitch Me

 

This cream lipstick leaves lips hydrated. All eyes will be on you in this vampy shade. If you’re looking for long-wear and no budge this lipstick will become a staple.  The lipstick goes on smooth and can be layered for a darker look. I would recommend lining lips with a pencil beforehand to create sharper lines. This can be found at Sephora.
