I love going drugstore hunting for the perfect dark lip for me. I'm Asian so there's a yellow undertone so keep that in mind while I swatch this.
L - R : Revlon's Shameless, Wet n' Wild's Cherry Bomb, Revlon's Black Cherry, Covergirl's Plum Perfect, Milani's Dark Cherry, and Revlon's Red Velvet. |
The swatches above would look different than the one below because I changed where I was sitting in the room to take pictures.
Shameless |
My top favorite out of these here is Revlon's color burst matte balm in Shameless. I only have one lipstick in that shade so it's very different to me. It's absolutely beautiful and sometimes I put one of the other dark color on my lips first in a sheer layer and then top it off with this color. It'll make the color look different in different lighting.
It goes on very smoothly and even though it's matte, it's still very hydrating.
This is Wet n' Wild's Cherry Bomb. Like most lipsticks from this line, it's drying so be sure to have a good lip balm on. It's doesn't go on as creamy as the other lipsticks but it's just as pretty.
This lipstick has a matte finish which is great for dark lips if you don't want it to stand out as much. This lipstick has a very affordable price of $2.
The Revlon's lip color Black Cherry look very similar to the Wet n' Wild's one but it goes on much creamier. It also has a cremé finish to it so it has a little shine to it.
This is my favorite one in the colors that is burgundy shade.
The Covergirl's Plum Perfect lipstick doesn't come off as dark as the rest of the other lip colors in this lighting. It has more of a pinky tone to it than burgundy. This is great if you just want a sheer version of the darker shades here.
This is another color that is similar to Cherry Bomb and Black Cherry but has more purple/blue undertone. This goes on very dark and looks beautiful. I went to buy this because a youtuber I was following did a look with this lipstick and it was amazing.
This one is Revlon's Lip Butter in Red Velvet. Like Plum Perfect, it looks a lot lighter because of the lighting. I'm a big fan of the lip butter because it's very hydrating and has a gel like feeling to it. I depotted this lipstick so it's not in the first lipstick picture.
As you can see, these lipsticks are very affordable and under $10. I love all these shades and sure I love some more than others but they're all equally beautiful.

I couldn't find the link for this on Amazon so you might have to look on other sites for this.
