dark makeup

Black lipstick, eyeliner

Dark makeup refers to cosmetics in deep, dramatic shades—black eyeliner, dark lipstick, heavy eyeshadow—often associated with gothic, punk, or alternative aesthetics.

The term can describe either the products themselves or the overall look: She's known for her dark makeup and edgy style.

It contrasts with natural or nude makeup looks that aim for subtlety.
