Six brave volunteers tested out some of the most dramatic shades so that you can see how they look in real life on women with a variety of skin tones. Click through to see the shades and see what the ladies involved had to say about each.

yeah, in this context it makes total sense. this isn't for a couture shoot or anything, and they're not people who are used to wacky makeup like models are. overreacting much...?

When they said real women they didn't neccesarily mean non tall/skinny people, they probably meant like not actors or paid or anything like that

6 REAL women? I am tired of people calling women who aren't models REAL women. Models are also REAL women. They just happen to be thinner/taller. I am super skinny naturally like a lot of models. It's annoying that naturally skinny girls/women are not considered real.

I really do not like these black lipsticks looks, definitely not for me (and I don't really think it looks good on anyone else either).

Brave souls! I loved it. :D How I wish I could rock a black lip but with my full lips and (apparently) b!tchy aura I can never make it work without scaring the children. :(
