MAC Style Black
For Fall/Winter 2009, it’s gothic elements that define this season’s wardrobe and makeup looks. Leather, lace, spikes, and buckles, along with sooty, blackened makeup looks give you a dark edge. The keyword here is sultry rather than scary - a little lace here, some black gloss there – and you’re doing “goth” well. Add some sparkle to glam up the night.
Black Lips
When going for a full-on black lip, pick a creamy lipstick or gloss versus a matte lipstick to soften the look.
- MAC Creamsheen Lipstick in Black Knight – creamy true black – $14
- Illamasqua Lipstick in Pristine – matte black – $20
Alternatively, layer black lip gloss over another lip color of your choice for a blackened lip that’s not too intense.
- MAC Glimmerglass in Blackware – creamy true black (sheer) - $18
I’ve just ordered the Illamasqua black lipstick above (Pristine) and I will definitely post a FOTD once I receive the shipment.
Basic Blacks
- MAC Cream Colour Base in Black -creamy true black – $16.50
- Essie Nail Polish in Licorice – true black – $8
Nightlife
Add gold glitter for glam factor.

- Stila 24kt Smudge Pot in Golden Noir – creamy black with flecks of gold – $20
