Is it me or does anyone else think that vampires of late have suddenly turned pretty? Sparkly skin and flashy cars, I have to say that I still prefer my vampires tall, dark and only coming out when it’s dark. Cloaked in the velvety night, lurking the shadows, vampires have some sort of an allure and mysterious aura that I never quite figured out. But it is exactly this shroud of mystery that fuels my fascination with them no matter how vampires may have evolved through the times.

With the new Eclipse movie just released on the silver screen, here are some gorgeous lip products I scouted on Sephora’s Beauty Blog to help you get in touch with your inner dark child. Be it something to help you play the damsel in distress or a lippie to create a vampy look, pick from a spectrum of crimson reds to deviously dark shades.

From top left: Fresh Sugar Plum Tinted Lip Treatment, Stila Pomegranate Crush, DuWop Twilight Venom, Givenchy in 19 Black Plum, Kat Von D Homegirl in Dark Plummy Brown, and Illamasqua in Pristine Matte Black.

The DuWop Twilight Venom looks particularly sexy. With the lip stain as seemingly drops of blood swimming in a crystal clear venom-laced liquid lip conditioner, it seems you’re supposed to “shake before use (to represent the blending of the human and vampire worlds)”. Containing argan, avocado and olive oils as well as vitamin E, this limited edition Twilight Lip Venom probably will give your lips a plumping with an extra bite. ;)

All products available at Sephora.com.

In light of the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday, Ima write about the M.A.C Love Affair collection because they feature 3 different types of lippies to help you pucker up!

Lip PencilA pencil designed for shaping, lining or filling in the lip.
Beet – Vivid Reddish-pink
Dervish – Pinky-mauve
Redd – Clearly Red

LipstickColour plus texture for the lips.
Lovelorn – Emotive blue pink (Lustre)
Lickable – Bright clean blue pink (Cremesheen)
Lady Danger – Vivid bright coral-red (Matte)
Snob – A ladylike mauve (Satin)
Violetta – Bright violet (Amplified Creme)

Dazzleglass CremeThe M?A?C cult favourite Dazzleglass with a creamier, smoother, but no less shiny or dazzling effect.
My Favourite Pink – Light Blue Pink With Pearl
Creme Allure – Bright Yellow Plum
Totally Fab – Bright Yellow Red With Pearl

I’m not that much of a lippie girl (more of an eyeshadow person), but I’m totally diggin’ the lipsticks Lovelorn, Lady Danger and the Dazzleglass Creme in Totally Fab and My Favourite Pink! Although this is a slightly dated collection and you cant find these in stores, you can still get them at maccosmetics.com. Maybe they should have launched this a leeeeeettllee later for people like me who do last minute shopping. Haha.

My love affair is with eyeshadows. What’s yours?
