Year: 2010 Launches

U.S. Launch Date: March 18th, 2010
International Launch Date: March 2010

Time to wham up the GLAM in VIVA VIVA GLAM !…and celebrate the indestructible idea that ALL girls (and boys) just wanna have fun! It’s a gaga-glamorous look at our abiding passion: The M·A·C AIDS Fund and the VIVA GLAM program are the heart and soul of M·A·C Cosmetics.

Established in 1994 to support men, women and children affected by HIV and AIDS globally, VIVA GLAM I, II, III, IV, V and VI were launched as continuous shades and have achieved tremendously gratifying success over the years. Spring 2010 sees two new Lipstick shades introduced as limited life for 12 months on counter. Ladies and gentlemen, we give you the sensational Cyndi Lauper and the electric Lady Gaga!

Lipstick ($14.00 U.S. / $16.50 CDN)

  • Viva Glam Cyndi Burnt coral-red colour (Lustre)
  • Viva Glam Gaga Cool blue-pink (Lustre)

Please remember… to respect (not necessarily agree) everyone’s opinions and people in general–even if they’re famous.  Temptalia is a positive space! 🙂  At the end of the day, Viva Glam is about promoting awareness about HIV/AIDS and celebrities are a great way to draw attention to the cause and encourage people to purchase one of the many shades of Viva Glam lipstick and lipgloss–all of which go towards the MAC AIDS Fund.

I certainly hope that there will be new shades of Viva Glam. I didn’t like the color and finish of Viva Glam VI, and I couldn’t see Dita von Teese, who was a spokesmodel for Viva Glam VI, wearing that shade!

rashmi

hello christine
yest i mailed u coz m going for shopping today so pls help me with this m writing it here again –

hello christine

Hi Rashmi,

Iridescent has shimmer in it, so it’s not like a foundation or a setting powder. I’d recommend Select Sheer or Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder for a loose powder. P+P Transparent Finishing Powder goes on invisible, basically, but it acts like a loose powder. You can definitely use Select Sheer or the P+P even if you don’t wear foundation.

I like Korres or Kiehl’s Tinted Moisturizers best. MAC put out one recently, but it’s a bit thick for my liking.

rashmi

thanks christine
now i remember in ur foundation tutorial i think u used prep + prime
in the last
yeah i will buy that only
and for tinted moisturizer i think may be next time when sephora or mac will have sale hahahah

Sixx

Nothin’ personally against Lady Gaga But i’m quite disappointed w/MAC’s choice on using her. Someone CLASSY like Cyndi Lauper is a better fit.

Legend

She’s been a headache to work with and she’s a flash in the pan. We won’t know anything about her when she disappears in a couple of years.

Cindy is an ICON. I don’t doubt she’ll get re-signed for the next campaign.

Mandy

OMG both of these colors are amazing and for charity, umm I’ll take 4 of each lol!

Um GaGa is a delight to work with. Ask David Lachappelle, Joseph Kahn, Beyonce, any of the extras on her videos, and even her backup dancers resigned to stay with her even though their contracts were up this year. Jealousy is not a cute look and lies are annoying.

You didn’t even spell Cyndi’s name right btw 😉

Evelyn

Disagree, hahaha but Lady Gaga would make a wonderful spokesperson
She has many meaningful things to say, even in her songs though it doesn’t seem like it. you just need to look for the messages!
Even though she doesn’t always have the most amount of clothing on, she does have an air of grace and maturity if you’ve seen any of her interviews
She was amazing at the march for gay rights and she’s so genuine. When she performed, she said “I’m not going to perform one of my songs because this is about you”
I think she genuinely and truly supports this cause
She may not be considered an icon YET…but I think she’s well on her way there! Besides…who else can actually SING (you NEED to hear her live), write their own songs, and come up with their own performance concepts nowadays on top of being totally different, 100% entertaining and pretty to boot haha

Zoe

i totally agree! and lady gaga definitely appeals to a younger crowd than cyndi lauper…..
and if people dont want her to be a spokesperson for this becuz she doesnt wear much clothing when shes performing…..hav they seem some of the girls that work in mac? maybe its jsut at mine but sometimes they dress in the skimpiest dresses i’ve ever seen…. lol

Sue

I don’t think she’s that great of a person. I hate her and her music, but putting all of those opinions aside, I think that by teaming the two up, Stefani Germanotta takes away from Cyndi’s greatness. Stefani is just a pop star like the rest, while Cyndi is an icon that everyone recognizes.

Lo

People are entitled to their own opinions.
I love gaga personally.
Put yout harsh feelings to the side and remember the cause!! Plus those colors look great:)
I love pink shades!

sonjiya

yay new viva glams! well, from the history of that line, mac has always chosen interesting and unique artists to launch the lipstick..i’m all for cyndi lauper, but lady gaga? i dunno..is she really suited for being a mac spokesmodel? i’m sure there are other fabulous ladies in today’s music scene that would have done it better…but i guess we’ll have to wait and see!

Vijaya

Seconded. It’s beyond bizarre to me that because someone doesn’t like Lady Gaga, they would make it a reason not to contribute to a charity for people with AIDS JUST because she’s their spokeswoman. It’s not like this is for making HER money–it’s about the charity.

Not to mention, I’m no fan of Lady Gaga myself. I just don’t like the lack of perspective people have when worthy causes involve celebrities they don’t like.

kayla

Lady Gaga writes really poor music. She also tries too hard to push the envelope with her fashion. Honestly, most of the things she wears are plain ugly, not groundbreaking. This is a makeup blog, why aren’t we talking about how ugly that same old black eye is on her. Or we could talk about what she might look like without cake face! (shudders) Poor choice MAC.

Ceriene

If you don’t like her music and fashion, keep it to yourself. Like you said, this is a make up blog. Let’s talk about the Viva Glam lip colors, rather than criticizing a celebrity that you don’t like.

Christine’s never gone and made fun of star’s choices in make up, cake face or no. Keep it positive, or at least, about the lipsticks in question. A little maturity, please.

Sue

I completely agree Kayla. MAC makes cosmetics. For their campaigns, they don’t choose authors or public speakers; they choose fashionable celebrities. However, it’s a bit ironic that they choose Gaga since her makeup is caked on and looks bad, to say the least. Why would they want that to represent their company? And to Ceriene, I think she stated her opinion very nicely. How is that immature? You’re making a big deal out of nothing.

abbyL

does anyone know (or have guesses) as to what the colors will be like? i *think* i read somewhere that the lady gaga color was supposed to be something in between st germain and snob, which sounds AMAZING… my fingers are crossed.

Melissa

It seems to me that the colors will probably be what they’re wearing in this ad photo. Gaga has a deep red one in her hand but she’s wearing a bright pink. Cyndi is wearing the red Gaga is holding.

Tanya

OMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE both of these ladies! I think they are both really super duper cool persons,I am not a huge fan of Lady Gagas music but I can recognize her amazing talent as an artist and as a brand…and having grown up with Girls Just Wanna Have fun, I cannot help but love Cindi 🙂 I cannot wait to see swatched and suppost MAC in helping fight AIDS/HIV.

Alyson

I dont get the dislike for Gaga as a Viva Glam spokesmodel. Who could BE more appropriate than someone who is all for gender bending and makeup for everyone everywhere any gender any race? I think shes a perfect choice, personally.

kpenn

I totally agree! I think it’s a match made in heaven!

Hopefully somebody she’ll have a whole collection with MAC. I’m just about drooling just thinking about it…

carriespooner

I LOVE GAGA! She’s a perfect fit for MAC. How can you look at her and not see that! She’s the embodiment of MAC.

I saw on PerezHilton that she was wearing a very
Barbie pink Lippie in the announcement. I wonder if it’s the VG Gaga color.

Lorna

wow! people are very polar on this topic; either they love lady gaga or they hate her. i am interested in seeing the new colors myself. i can’t wait either way.

Rob

I’ve seen the visual in one of our PR booklets at work, in relatively large scale (a full A4 page) and the Gaga shade looks like St Germain / Snob but more Amplified or Cremesheen in texture and the Cyndi shade is reminiscent of Red She Said lippy, but a little more plummed-out perhaps? They are both limited life colours (not an official VG #7) on counter for 12-months (like the rotating semi-permanent mineralise eyeshadows). Words cannot describe how flippin’ excited I am about having Gaga theme days at work in April (Aust release date is April 12th)!

Lilly

You don’t have to be rude about it. If you don’t like her, than don’t say anything at all. You don’t even know what the new color will look like and already you hate it? Grow uo

Camryn

Does anybody know what shades these two ladies will be doing for Viva Glam? I can’t wait!! I hope they are bold/rich colors and not something that we have seen before.

Ashley

I LOVE lady gaga’s makeup in this!! i wish there was a picture of her lipstick in this, i know i will have to buy a bunch because that is the perfect shade of pink i have been looking everywhere for!!

victoria

i don’t really care who’s the spokesperson, ok i have to admit, it does influence me a bit but most of all viva glam has brought out some great lipsticks and are quite universal. hey christine, do you know what are the finishes of these?

Lorna

LOVE the promo pick! lady gaga actually looks pretty. if the color on her lips is her lipstick, i’m definitely getting it. i like cyndi lauper’s color but i don’t really use red lipstick all that much. can’t wait!!!

johnfiend

Wow! The other day I was overwhelmed by the positive atmosphere and great kind people who support and are members of temptalia.com. today I’m beyond disappointed. Lady GaGa – might not look the way everyone wants, but what she stands for and does more then alot of you will ever achieve in life, we are all entitle to our opinions, however being nasty and so negative about someone who is trying to do some good in this world, isn’t so much an opinion as it is just hate for anything out the norm. There’s ways to express an opinion, and I beleive alot of the ladies on here don’t know how that is. Real shame 🙁

JImmies

I’m not a fan of Lady Gaga. Her music is too raunchy and out there, but I certainly support the cause, and I love me some good makeup!!

Roxanne

I used to really dislike Lady Gaga. I though she was arrogant and just another teen pop star. But then after “Paparazzi” (which I really liked) I got into it, watching interviews, live performances, things like that and now I’m all for Gaga! I really encourage people who don’t like her to do this too. (I always feel you should at least try to get to know sth. about s.o. before making up your mind.) Yes, the fashion is a little out there, but it’s also very innovative. She also writes her own songs and choreography, never playbacks, can actually sing decently, comes up with ideas for music videos, outfits,… and she seems to genuinely love her fans (like the time she ordered pizzas for every one of her fans who had been waiting for her outside a mall for hours!). You might not like her, but you can’t not respect that!

Anyway, I’ve never bought a lipstick EVER (I know, shocking) so these might be a first! Depending on the colours of course. I’m really curious!!

Rachelle

Yes! I agree. Well, I didn’t HATE her before, but I wasn’t much of a fan. She came out with “Just Dance” and I was like OK, one-hit wonder. Then she started making her way through the music scene and I kept up with her performances, interviews, etc. Lady Gaga is much more than what you see (a la crazy costumes, makeup). The girl has talent. Her song Speechless was for her dad, who underwent heart surgery. She even threatened to quit as Lady Gaga if he didn’t get the procedure done. I’ve watched tons of her live performances (like Paparazzi, Pokerface, Bad Romance, Speechless) and she has RAW TALENT. Personally, I like her live more than in the studio. She can change up her vocals to make it sound different and present the song in a different way. She plays her own instruments when she’s live, which most artists can’t do. And her creativity is definitely evident through her music videos and costumes.

Lady Gaga’s expression through music is as dynamic as MAC’s expression through color and art. And it’s awesome that’s she wants to be part of such a great cause.

Kiran

I really hope that pink on Lady Gaga is the her Viva Glam Lipstick…looks lovely!

As for those hating on Lady Gaga, honestly she is an Artist with the opportunity and now the funds to wear such wacky outfits and express her creativity. Madonna wore cone boobs, Cher wore…well not much at times lol, Elton John wore huge sunglasses and colorful costumes that most men didn’t have the guts to do!….. I am not saying she is as great as these established artists but it is all about making your own mark in the industry and if that’s what she wants to do, then so be it. She also always sings live, which is wonderful considering how many people lip sync. At the end of the day the cause is the most important thing so show some love for people wanting to be apart of something charitable instead of criticizing!

Ana

Is it me or the promo shot looks terrible? Ok, I get Cindy’s idea, but Lady Gaga just doesn’t work for me on that shot… She almost looks like a zombie, no life in her eyes. She looks one of the girls on Wheel of Fortune.

jollie

I am assuming that the lipstick colors that they are wearing in the picture are the new lipstick shades. If that is the case, I like the pink shade that lady gaga is wearing. I will definetely get that one.

Vanessa

So I’m guessing this won’t be called Viva Glam VII? It seems like they stopped after VI… even to go as far as a LE VI with Fergie :S Or maybe they’re just dropping the whole number thing altogether?

Frances

I don’t like Lady Gaga or her music, but it’s really great that she’s attaching her name and celebrity to such a worthy cause. And she IS a great fit for MAC.

Anna Phalactyc

LOVE Cyndi, love love love her idosyncratic style, all-around quirkiness, unique voice, and great song writing. And you know what? Even though I find some of Lady Gaga’s claims about her own output pretentious and inaccurate (I know about conceptual art, honey, and that ain’t it) I still can’t help but admit she’s a true talent and most of what I just wrote about Cyndi could apply to her as well. Her songs are really great pop music, and she is *never* boring to watch/ look at. So, I think MAC made a fun and interesting choice for this campaign! In any case, it’s a great cause, and by supporting VG you get a great MAC product- everybody wins! I’m not a pink l/s kinda gal, but gimme gimme gimme the Cyndi red!

Vness_12

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this photo! I sent it to my friend earlier. Can’t wait to check out the shades. Gaga and Cyndi seem to fit so well with the MAC brand IMO. 🙂

Kristine

well…if the the viva glam gaga lipstick is what’s in lady gaga’s lips in this pic then I will totally buy it…I really love her lipstick in this picture!

Judy

OMG! I just have to have both of them. Anyone know what the shades/color will be called & whether they will be cremesheen, lustre, etc?? I had hoped for GaGa’s to be more of a purpley shade, but it’s not that big of a deal. The pink color almost looks a little purpley in the picture.

Stef

Both colors are great, so now I have to decide which one I must have. Oh the heck with it, the money goes to a good cause, I’ll just pick up both! And Cyndi and Gaga look amazing!

geri~

I totally agree! I know she is slim but her legs are not that skinny!!! haha, anyway, I am still a big fan of her music so will be picking up the lipstick once it hits the stores!

gena

As much as I can definitely respect an artist for doing something positive with their image, I just can’t respect an artist who copies another artist’s look so blatantly and doesn’t take responsibility for it, and worse, seems to think they are original. I’m not usually a debbie downer and she is certainly talented, but Lady Gaga’s entire image was Roisin Murphy’s first, right down to the hair, the bows, the crazy glasses, and the hooded outfits. I find it strange that people think this is 100% her when just a few years ago she didn’t dress like this at all, she just wore lingerie on stage.

I’m a fan of her music, but not her lack of integrity.

Lizzy

Uh, no, Lady Gaga wears things that reference music you may never have heard of dear. Alladin Sane? Mot The Hoople? Glam Rock? Etc., etc. Styling yourself on David Bowie from the Seventies is a mark of education, not a rip off.

The dreadful Madonna suckered endless numbers of Americans into thinking she was so cool by wearing a ten year old Gautier wardrobe! Every stitch on the bodies of too many American examples of mediocrity is old news from Europe. So why bash GaGa? At least she seems to know who Iggy Pop is.

For all you know, Roisin Murphy may have hired GaGa’s stylist second. She got the retro references from somewhere too, you know. Classic albums beat marketing people handing you a stylists’ card and saying “This is who you’ll be”. All of these people are product, they make more product, and nitpicking between them gets to be like 13 year old boys screaming “CANNONDALE!” “NO! GT!” at each other.

Dusty

Hehe! These conversations are a hoot! Part of me thinks, “Nothing is original… It’s all been done!” while the other part of me thinks that people should pause on the need to smash (I could say more but I’m trying to be polite.) Haha!

My take on it is this: I LOVE Glam Rock and I’m just tickled that SOMEONE is putting some theatrics back into Rock & Roll (even if she’s doing it to dance/pop music). Who cares if GaGa is copying Bowie’s image. I always thought he was more of an opportunist than an artist anyway!

I have so longed for a new Klaus Nomi or another Jobriath or even – dare I say – Grace Jones. Bjork just doesn’t cut it for me. She’s like watching German cinema and now is NOT the time on Sprockets when we dance, let me tell you.

Influence and imitation can be hard to distinguish from at times. Resurrecting a classic image/sound is really just good business sense (if it is as good today as it was yesterday, it will sell), and while I ALSO think that it’s a cop-out to operate that way… I admit I got a little giddy seeing GaGa in that old Thierry Mugler classic from George Michael’s “Too Funky” video (at least, that’s where I saw it first).

Sigh… I miss Nadja Auerman’s freakishly long, side-show worthy legs.

When can we put models back on the covers of fashion magazines?!? Anyone?

Annie

Hmm, I wonder how close the actual shades will be to the picture. If it’s the colors they are wearing in the photograph, it looks like I definitely will need them both! :3

aradhana

that’s a great pic, and great choice for spokesmodels…
totally in line with mac’s previous choices…

does anyone know why the campaign ‘breaks’ on the 25th of feb, then lipsticks launch on 18th march? are the two lipsticks launching on separate dates?

Erin

I was beyond excited to hear that they were doing a VIVA GLAM campaign together! I hope that the colors end up being just as FIERCE as the two of them!

Christina

I’m a big fan of pinks, but that color Cyndi is wearing is what intrigues me the most. Yum! I’ve never been a big fan of Viva Glam colors (although I’ve bought and tried a few) but these look promising!

Zoe

i am DEFINITELY gonna hav to buy the lady gaga pink viva glam lipstick

and for all of the ppl saying that lady gaga was a bad choice, i think both of these people are PERFECT for this. lady gaga attracts a younger crowd, who would generally like the pink lipstick more and cyndi lauper attracts an older crowd, who would prbly like the red lipstick more than the pink
but thats just my opinion….

Jen

I’ve been such a fan of Cyndi Lauper since the mid-80s. I emulated her makeup then, and can see I’ll be imitating her once again! I actually had the pleasure to meet Ms. Lauper when I worked at a TV station in Philly. Her autograph on my post-it note looks exactly like her autograph on your MAC image! Guess she signs everything in the same way!

Alison

I really like Lady Gaga but her shade sounds and looks all wrong for my skin type. Cyndi’s is a different story, luckily. I just adore this promo pic! Great cause!

ak

I have the Viva Glam I lipstick which I wear with the Mahogany lip pencil because I don’t look good in true pillar box reds, clean blue reds or orange reds, and I have two Viva Glam V lipsticks because I bought one by accident because I didn’t realize I already had one. *slapped my forehead* But the VG V lipsticks look great on me; very universal looking.

The VG Cyndi sounds nice because it doesn’t sound like a pillar box red and it should be sheer if it’s a Lustre. I’d love to look at the Gaga lipstick also but I bought a similar sounding color called Lickable, a Cremesheen, and my Mom hated it on me & of course she just HAD to tell me how much she hated it. But at least it’s a Lustre. But as usual w/ MAC I’ll try before I even buy.

Christine would the VG GaGa look good on an NC45?

Miss_M

Love the promo pic !!

I’m really curious about the Gaga shade, it looks a lot like St. Germain on the photo.

I really hope there will be some new permanent Viva Glam shades in the future !

ak

I hope it’s nothing like St. Germain because that’s like Satin or Matte or something, but at least it’s a Lustre thank Heavens! And a Lustre or Glaze makes that kind of color more wearable.

Jen

I would love to win, and I would like my friend Dawn to win a Clarisonic,she’s wanted one forever but can’t afford one with her budget being a stay at home Mom. I’ll cross my fingers for her and I to win:)

Dena

for all you Gaga haters. She writes her own music and signs it as well. No lipsincing like Britney. Also, whoever keeps saying she stole someone named Roisin Murphy persona, I say bull to the max. She’s an original. All these musicians copy someone. I am sure whoever this Roisin Murphy person is (don’t know, don’t care to) copied someone’s style as well. so stop the freaking hate on these boards and let’s all concentrate on the beautiful MAC cosmetics we are all going to get broke from. Thank you MAC!

Sue

If you look at Gaga’s pictures from high school, you would know she dressed like the majority of people. She followed the crowd. This change only happened about 2 years ago. Therefore, I don’t see how this is her “own style that she’s had her whole life, inspired by her personality”. Now THAT is bull. Also, if you read Seventeen magazine, there is a quote by gaga saying that she often copies Victoria Asher (ie the lightning bolt on her face).

Jennifer S.

I saw Lady Gaga perform on television sometime within the last week and her lipstick was gorgeous. Sort of a pink, mauvey darker “Lavender Whip” was the the first thing I thought of, identical to the photo shown here on Temptalia.
Do I stand behind Lady Gaga’s choices as an artist? Heavens no! But what person can’t get behind a donation to an AIDS fund and leave with a beautiful lipstick to boot?

Lisa

Just to be clear, this collection will only be limited edition and available for a year?
I really like lady gaga and will definitely be getting the 2 colors though i will probably not wear then as often as my other shades.

Kim

Oh man. MAC what the hell? So many collections so little money. Can’t you please lower your prices for us that are being hit hard by the economy?? Pretty please. Anyhoot, loving both lippies. I had hoped for a more purpley color for Gaga and a amplified creme or something richer than lustre. Lustres don’t work on my lips & they dry them. That will not stop me from buying both of these lippies though.

Mal

i love the GAGA one. Personally i dont care about the artists, its the actual makeup that counts. But regardless i am a big Gaga fan and the colour is gorgeous. Cyndi one is a bit too bright and grown up for me tbh, not a fan of red lipsticks. Pink, more my thing (:

Julie

The lauch date for Viva Glam Cyndi and Viva Glam Gaga has been moved up to February 10, 2010!!! Be on the look out- the colours are beautiful!!!

Jessica

My MAC SA showed me these lipsticks and Gaga’s sorta looks like Snob and Lauper’s is almost a berry shade. Since they are lustre’s they are so soft! Lady Gaga’s eyebrows in the picture above are actually pink the makeup artist used a lipstick!

Mandy

I’m so disappointed that some people don’t think Lady Gaga would make an exceptional VG/MAC affiliate! I think she’s fantastic and will definitely be buying Viva Glam Gaga! 😀

letthembleed

Hey there MACaholics…the release date on this has been pushed up to Feb 10th or 11th, don’t wait until March or this shiz will be gone!!! I already have my presell order in at my local Nordies for 6 of the Gagas and they aren’t even for me! Get on it!

catie

LOVING BOTH OF THEM!!!! Thanks for posting. When are we going to finally see swatches for the Give me Liberty Collection? Dying to see the Blooming Lovely lipstick so bad.

Dusty

It’s actually very strange dealing with MAC sometimes. My local store is putting these out on the 10th of February (they’re in a Macy’s).

I called MAC on-line and they had no idea when they would launch. They also said there is NO number to call to get a solid launch date (they are just told when they could sell them).

I also called 4 other stores (2 counters, one freestanding and one Pro). The two counters I called (one Macy’s and one Nordstrom) said the 11th. The freestanding store I called said they didn’t know but thought it might be next week, and the Pro store I called originally said the 11th – But when I pressed they asked a manager and then told me the 10th.

So the “official” word that I’m hearing… Is that there is no official word. LOL!

Christine

I’ve heard it’s the 10th, because they’ll be on either the Today Show or the Morning Show (I don’t remember, one of the two… something like it?) promoting it, so they moved up the launch date.

Dusty

I’m excited to see how they interact with each other! They are both often very mellow when you see them in interviews. Hopefully Lady Gaga can keep her hands off of her chest mic (did you SEE her on Oprah?) Haha!

ak

I have to say that Cyndi is in great shape in this pic where she’s only wearing lingerie. I don’t know if they retouched her or what, and she doesn’t look wrinkly but at the same time Cyndi doesn’t look like she ‘had work done’ either. That’s good.

dal

LOVE YOU CYNDI!!!!

Thank you Gaga for saying how important Cyndi is to Rock music for women in chart history, and for both of you standing up for GAY RIGHTS and to stop HIV.

There’s nothing wrong with Gay people. Jesus said in Matthew that there are people born Gay, and they should accept it. Also, Jonathan and King David were very romantic together and kissed and King David said his love of Jonathan (who gave up the kingship to David against his Dad’s wishes) exceeded “that of my love of women”. See their story in the Old Testament in Samuel.

Evy

Consummerism at it’s best. This is what it takes now to get the public attention and their dollars. M.A.C has always used too much unnecessary packaging for me to even consider buying it.

Katrin

I don’t really like Lady Gaga. I think that her music is bad and that her clothing choices aren’t the greatest, but I respect her because she doesn’t care. She does what she thinks is right which is why I think that MAC chose her, she is there as a spokesperson. She’s controversial of course, but who isn’t? We can just hope and pray that they don’t pick Miley Cyrus next. I love the lipstick though. It’s a beautiful color that is just the prettiest pink. I think that it looks great on so many people.
