I don't know a way to do it inside Poser. I've done a couple of images like that, but in combination with Paint Shop Pro.

Lilith in Black and White

Grave Mistake!

In Poser I used all white lights.  After rendering I took the image into PSP, made a copy of it, and  turned the original into a grey  scale image.  On the copy I painstakingly used the lasso selection tool set with a 2 or 3 pixel feather, and went carefully around the lips and hair.  Once I was done, I copied my selection and overlayed it on the grey scale image.  In order to make sure that they matched exactly I changed the mode on the coloured lips and hair to "difference."  Once they were matched up exactly I changed the mode back to "normal" and then merged the 2 layers.
