I'm liking the MAC VIVA GLAM GAGA 2 lipstick, but not loving it as much as last years release and I'm not going to buy any backups for it.


VIVA GLAM GAGA 2 is a light, beige based nude, that looks similar to the shade Hue on me. A light coat gives a polished nude look to my lips, whilst layering it gives a very light and milkier look that is great for pairing with strong eyes. It is suitable to wear all year round, but as it has a beige base rather then a pink one it can look a bit flat.




The finish to the lipstick is a creamy amplified, that hasn't had a drying effect on my lips. The lasting power is average for a lipstick; no less and no worse then other brands. I've had no problems with the packaging and I don't mind the price as 100% of the proceeds go to the MAC AIDS Fund and the VIVA GLAM program.

I thinks it is suitable for all skin tones but u need to know how to make it work, for example : wear a darker lipliner and dab instead of smearing it....im an NC42 and im inlove with it.

I love this lipstick! My friend go it for my birthday and it's absolutely gorgeous, I love how the color is so amplified and creamy. I would recommend dabbing some clear gloss or the matching lipglass over it so it won't look so matte. I really like the color, it's just that my lips are really dry so sometimes the lipstick gets into the cracks on my lips and doesn't look nice. Oh well, I guess I just have to exfoliate and put on lip balm before. Other than that B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L COLOR! (Mind the fact that if your skin is darker you may need a darker lip liner under the lipstick so it won't be such a bold contrast).

I LOVE THIS NUDE!!! ITS LIKE MY CURRENT FAVOURITE NUDE OF ALL TIME!! I was skeptical about it at first but when I tried it I fell in love :) It's like the perfect nude for me.. atleast in my opinion. I love that it's an amplified creme finish as well. LOVE LOVE LOVE! Will definitely buy a backup as it is limited edition :( So sad!

I have a fair/medium complexion and this nude lipstick does not wash me out or make me look dead. Of all nude lipsticks I've tried, this is by far the best one for me and thinking about taking Myth back to exchange for another Viva Glam Gaga 2 lipstick so I can have a back up.

I love this lipstick. Is the perfect nude not too beige or too pink.
Very flattering when paired with the gaga 2 lipgloss.

I hate that this is LE. I'm definitely stocking up on these because I love how it gives me a perfect nude lip without washing me out. I didn't get to buy the first Viva Glam Gaga but I think I like this one better since it's more warm toned and would look good on my skintone. I love the creamy texture and the color payoff which is why I only apply it in the middle of my lip and smudge it outwards with my fingers so that it doesn't look to packed on. But all in all, a helluva good product.

I'm NC15 and got it because an NC20 gal said it was the perfect nude for her, unfortunately it's a bit too dark for me.
The formula is nice, very creamy and moisturizing. I'm a big fan of the Viva Glam lipsticks and ran out for this one since I missed the first Gaga lipstick. I wish it worked for me!
I'll probably end up giving this to a friend or swapping it.

What a gorgeous nude - if you're looking for a nude that won't completely wash out your lips, give this a try! It has brown in it and really flatters my warm skintone. The scent is to die for and the tube is just so cute. Your money is going towards a good cause.. it's just all around awesome! Like most MAC lipsticks, the formula is long lasting and easy to work with. Why oh why do perfect shades ALWAYS have to be l/e?
