Since you have dark skin, you want to stick with either a dark shade or a medium shade of red. But since I'm no expert on this, I think if you go to this site and click, "Get Color Matched Now," it'll help you out a lot. It will tell you exactly what shades to wear, not only in lipstick, but with other makeup too! =)

Personally, I think darker reds will look lovely. Also, terracotta and plums if you want other colour varieties.
It's all about experimenting. and test them before you buy them! :) ]
Before applying the lipstick, don't forget to moisturize your lips as it will tend to stop the lipstick from being too dry. Keep it simple and you will wow everyone in the room! Also don't forget lip liner can also help improve the look of the lips. This is a personal choice but if you do decide to use it, avoid using a dark shade as when the lipstick fades you will be left with just the outline. And this is one faux pas you might want to steer clear of. If you do decide to use a lip brush for application then this will also help to blend the lipstick in with the liner.
If you have dark skin tones, then consider red and plum based colours rather than lipstick with pink tones. Peach tones also look great with tanned skin but don't go too orange, as it will make your teeth appear yellow. Fair skin looks great with beige lipstick and if you have olive skin tones, you should try lipsticks with a brown base. ]
Go with the darker shades of red, they look better with darker skin tones, avoid bright reds and you'll look great.
