There’s something undeniably captivating about the black cherry beauty trend – it’s vampy, versatile, and just perfect for fall. This trend, making waves across social media and runways alike, marries rich, deep red tones with subtle hints of purple and black for a look that’s universally flattering. Whether it’s a bold lip, a moody nail varnish, or a soft wash of colour on the eyes, black cherry has a way of adding instant drama to your beauty routine.
This season, the trend has been everywhere. Dua Lipa set the tone by dyeing her hair a dark cherry hue, bringing a violet twist to her brunette base. Meanwhile, beauty brands are leaning in, with Laura Geller’s limited-edition black cherry lipsticks offering a sultry pop of colour that’s perfect for standalone wear, and Glossier releasing their limited-edition Black Cherry range this week. Runways have also embraced this trend with fervour. Dolce & Gabbana's Bordeaux-tinted lips, to Jason Wu's russet shadows adding depth and warmth to the eyes.
For those ready to embrace the look, options abound. A bold black cherry lip instantly transforms a minimal outfit into something statement-worthy. Prefer a subtler approach? Try a sheer wash of colour on your cheeks or a soft plum-tinted eyeliner for a romantic, everyday look.
Luckily for you, we've got you covered on the products you need to have on your shelf. From Glossier's Black Cherry capsule to the iconic Clinique Black Honey – this is how to achieve the black cherry beauty trend look for yourself.
