Lucy Hale Pulls Off The Black Lipstick Trend

by Augusta Statz

Everyone’s favorite Pretty Little Liar — okay, so maybe not everyone's favorite (because how do you pick just one?), but arguably the most fashionable, Aria, aka Lucy Hale, has been the face of Mark cosmetics since 2013. While representing the brand, she’s had some fun with makeup and has certainly been known to rock a statement lip from time to time. But her latest look is a major change for the bubbly actress! Lucy Hale rocked dark lipstick for a shoot with Refinery 29 and Mark cosmetics, and the totally goth, Lorde-esque look was mesmerizing on her.

These behind-the-scenes peeks at the shoot were all over social media yesterday, and they showed Hale sporting two looks. One was gorgeous and gothy: a black lip with a red tint, black nails, and of course, Hale’s perfect new lob (long bob) hairstyle. The second one was almost equally as good, showcasing her do and featuring a heavy cat eye. Me-ow! She’s so on trend I can’t even handle it right now! Between the lob cut and the black lips, which appeared all over the runways during fashion month, she’s turned into a such a beauty goddess, and it makes me want to chop my hair off and cake my lips in black, STAT!

The full Refinery 29 beauty looks will be published on March 24, the same day as the major PLL ‘A’ reveal. And in honor of the big day, I’ll be trying out black lips in the privacy of my living room. What? I’ve got to see if I’d be able to pull it off — not everyone is Lucy Hale, after all.

Even though I may or may not be able wear the goth look as well as she can, I can still shop all of Lucy’s faves from Mark Cosmetics, and so can you. Visit her page on Mark cosmetics website to shop her favorite beauty products.
