I am a makup artist and this is what i do:

To Choose The Right Shade For You Follow the following steps:

Lipstick can be subtle, glamorous or flirty, adding the final touch to your day or evening makeup.

STEP 1: Choose a color that complements the natural shade of your lips and skin. Plums, wines and deep reds flatter a dark skin tone, while light-brown beiges with pink or orange undertones complement a lighter skin tone. Olive skin looks good with brownish reds, light browns and raisin shades of lipstick.

STEP 2: Keep colors lighter for daytime and darker for night. Matte and cream finishes offer a subtler daytime look, while a high-gloss finish adds glamour for evening. A sheer, natural-looking color with a little shine also works well for day.

STEP 3: Experiment. Head to your local department store and ask a makeup artist to test different shades on your lips. Whenever possible, check in natural light to see how the color really looks with your complexion.

STEP 4: Create your own shade by combining colors. If the shades you find don't completely satisfy you, mix your own color. The easiest way to do this is by applying each color to your lips with a lip brush, then blending with the brush on your lips.

I dont't do the lip liner thing, its not my style and alot of my clients want natural lip, I dont even use a lip pencil.

Tips & Warnings

Try a colored gloss or lip tint for a sheer hint of lip color.

Buy the colors that look good on you'not the ones that look good in the tube.

Deep or bold lip color complements light eye makeup, while light or nude lipstick flatters heavy eye makeup.

Hope that helps.

You have to choose stronger colors, brighter colors or darker ones. You can go very dramatic because your skin color will control the impact better, than on say, someone, pale, who puts on a strong color lipstick. They can look clownish very easily. You have a greater range of choices. You can go real bold with no problem! So I say, choose color tones you like, then choose the strongest within that range! Pastels are not for you! You don't always have to wear color. But when you feel like making an impact, then don't hold back! Have fun!

I actual think of that each and each shade looks faultless on dark-skinned human beings. i'm incredibly green with envy of that! yet for nights out i think of a magnificent shiney pink could be the desirable. A goldish pink is super in the process the day..in addition they can pull of a magnificent pink! Bobbi Brown has some super lip stick colorings.

Answer 5

Wow, you could probably do the pretty red colors! I have fair skin so it doesn't work that well when I try it. You could probably even do a fushia color. It seems like the darker complection you have the more shades of lipstick open to you.
