Was Viva Glam Nicki just 1 shade? I remember a lavender and a hot pink color. Was Pink Friday part of it? I just remeber 2 or 3 shades being associated with Nicky Minaj.

One of the nastiest things I've seen is a girl tried on some makeup at a CCO, and then wiped the excess off ON A CLEAN BOX OF MAKEUP BEHIND THE TESTER!!!!! Now that box is covered in her salvia and finger grease.

She did have 3 shades, yes. Pink Friday, VGN1 (pinky coral colour) and VGN2 (lavender)

I didn't even think about that, I kind of hope they do but I also can't handle too much more of her lol
I've enjoyed the Riri lipsticks (not the chase to get them, but the lipsticks in and of themselves!) but I'm definitely a little worn out on Rihanna. She's had an amazing run, but I'm ready for a different celebrity!

Found this on IG, the lipstick & gloss together looks great...but I keep going back & fourth with getting the lipstick ughh! I think I might skip though since I feel I have something similar already! Might just get the lipglass to put over the reds I already have!



*~*It's good to see the lipstick and lipglass both separately and together...I like them both!!*~*

I came across this article where you see the ls on Rihanna from her launch in different lighting (out of the sunset). I wasn't able to pull the image to share it here via my phone (if someone else is able to, please do! It's a great shot!) :) http://www.teenvogue.com/beauty/makeup/2013-12/rihanna-mac-viva-glam/?slide=2 She apparently wanted it to be a creamier frosty version of RiRiWoo. "It's red, but I wanted it to be frosty with a creamier finish, so it's softer than RiRi Woo," Rihanna says. "The more people who can wear it, the more lives are impacted." On the topic of another year of her with Viva Glam, I wouldn't half mind. I mean, I've loved all lip colours she & MAC have churned out sooooo my lips won't be upset to have some more. Next woman in line has a hard act to follow though...

I really don't think I could ever bring myself to lip swatch a lip glass, too much of a chance someone used the perm-wand and put it back in the tube. If on the off chance I have a colour I'm interested in lipstick wise and want to lip swatch it first I will have the MUA clean it with alcohol and then do it again myself with my personal spray bottle I keep in my purse. Heck, I even spray new lippies from the box before using them for the first time. lol
Yikes! I never thought of that! But the store I go to cuts the wand to a little stub so you can't swatch it. Then they have you use the little disposable lip brushes to swatch it. I thought that was how all of the stores do it.

Around a week after launch -- on the floor.
Then someone effed up BIGTIME!!! Tho some locations may not look like it, MAC is HUGE on sanitation. They're actually the leading cosmetics company when it comes to the training and implementation of sanitation, so for that to happen is a big :nono:
