Absolutely gorgeous. I'm pretty tan, and wearing this to its full building potential makes me look like an alien. However, one sheer swipe of this on my lips and I look like twiggy from the 60s. I'm obsessed with nude lips as some girls would die for that perfect red shade. I've tried tons of nudes and this just has a wonderful formulation that would work for any skin color.And by goodness do I love my Gaga
Opaque, creamy, flattering nude that lasts four about five hours on my lips: +5
The scent is to die for: +1
Why is it limited edition?!: -1
I love, love, love this lipstick. It is hands down my favorite nude (well, at the moment~)
I haven't used a lot of MAC lip products, or any MAC products, really, but this one drew me in with its advertising and unique-yet-classy packaging. I bought it on a whim with no feelings of guilt because 100% of the proceeds go to the MAC AIDS Fund.
I brought it home and first, I LOVE the smell of MAC lipsticks - that vanilla scent that is neither overpowering or weird. I applied it and was startled because literally one swipe completely saturated my lips with color. My favorite pairing is to put a coral lip gloss over it (I use Liplicious in Mango Mousse from B+BW) and it gives my lips the most perfect nude glow.
My only gripe is WHY on God's good Earth is this limited edition?! Makes me feel like I need to buy 10 backups.. which I probably will..
I cannot overstate how much I love this color.
I love this so much that I purchased a back up a couple of days later. MAC describes it as a "light neutral beige" which is quite accurate.
This looks great with smoky eyes or colourful eyeshadows. I sometimes pair it with MAC Spring Bean.
I love this lipstick! i have never tried a nude lipstick like this and ive tried every brand im a huge fan of lipsticks originaly i just bought it out of curiosity and support for the mac aids fund it looks ahmazing for everyday use i have gotten so many compliments i am tan and it stands out alot it looks like a baby doll look i use fashion fanatic lip gloss and wow it just couldnt get any better :)
Initially I was thinking to get Hue lipstick today but it was unavailable at my local store. End up I got Viva Glam Gaga 2 which I have never thought that I would purchase this lipcolor (i thought it would be concealer-like lipcolor). But the color appeared to be a nice nude color when i swatched it on my hand and I decided to give it a try. I am so glad that I picked up this color coz its really a lovely nude color and doesn't wash me off. Loving it....^^
Hardcore Tan/Beige Lipstick with a Matte Finish. Looks really cute with Palladio Walnut lipliner and A little of Gaga2 Lipglass. I just kind of dab this on,
I have to admit it was a big risk buying this the day it launched in my country without any tester available...but did my gamble pay off big time! I was afraid that this would give me concealer lips as I'm a C3/NC 30 when it comes to MAC foundation. But this lippy finished off with the matching lipglass gave me the most flattering, true beige nude lips I've ever seen! The formulation is a little sheer but very creamy and buildable. Do a smoky eye with this lippy and you're good to go!
GREAT nude lipstick for everyday wear. I love that I don't have to think to much when wearing this, very easy, and great for any occasion. Glides on smooth. I top it with a lip gloss as I do most my lipsticks. Right now I'm loving it with MAC Plushglass in Bubble Tea. So far my favorite nude color along with Myth. The money goes to a great cause which made this purchase sooo worth it!
I like this shade, but not as much as I did before I tried Velvet Teddy. This shade is my go to nude if I want to look like Snooki :P. I really love that this is for a great cause, even though I hate Lady GaGa! :[ Anyways, this color looks pretty on my NC42 skin, a tad light but I make it work with lipgloss and liner. The formula is excellent in my opinion, it goes on like gloss but gives great coverage like mattes. I already purchased a backup! ;))
