5 Almost-Black Lipsticks That Will Feed Your Grungy Soul

L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Lipstick in Spice

This rich brown-red hue has dark undertones that nicely complements a variety of skin tones. It is extremely hydrating and will become your go-to if you want to add some edge to any makeup look. 

Maybelline New York Super Stay Matte Ink in Escapist

Probably the most frustrating part about wearing an almost-black lipstick is that some easily smudge. If you fall victim to this, try Escapist. Not only is it the perfect, nearly-noir burgundy shade, but once applied, it also won’t move an inch.

NYX Professional Makeup Strictly Vinyl Lip Gloss in Rebel

For a cooler-toned, nearly black lipstick, opt for Rebel. This navy shade resembles a slick patent leather when applied onto the lips and instantly channels your inner grunge.

Dose of Colors Lip It Up Satin Lipstick in Fudge

Fudge is the brown-black lipstick that every moody makeup lover needs to add to their collection. It’s highly pigmented and offers full coverage, but it leaves behind the ultimate creamy satin finish that feels lightweight on the lips.

Maybelline New York Super Stay Coffee Edition in Espresso Enthusiast

This yellow-undertoned shade is inspired by actual coffee grounds and will transport your fall makeup look to a much darker place. It’s about as close to black lipstick as you’re going to get without actually using black lipstick.
