A few Bomb celebrities have been harkening back to the early nineties with dark plum lipstick:
The vamp like color was super hot a few years ago with artists like Total, 702, and Foxy Brown.
I’ll admit it: I totally got down with the dark color in my younger years! But now, if I go for a color, it’s more likely to be a bright red, not a dark plum.
Will you ladies be trying this old/new buzzworthy beauty trend?
If so, go for these:

Personally, I’m not a fan, I prefer softer colors. However, I think some people can pull it off.

I was never a fan of Dark Plum lips. Hated it back then and loathe it even more now.

I wore the plum lipstick back in the 90s in my late teens/early twenties, and I started rocking the color again on occasion the fall of last year. I love the color, and like Anon stated, it’s so Nia Long in “Love Jones!” Loves it!!!
