Viva Glam Cyndi or Gaga?

[ZoZo]

I have both, but I liked Cyndi alot, it is more wearable for everyday.

Vino l/l and a touch of Melt In Your Mouth Cremesheen glass makes this work for me.

That sounds really nice. I might have to try that.

Umm - I don't mean to be ignorant or dumb or anything but who is the woman in the picture with the huge pink lips and huge boobs in the white top? I have no idea who she is but she looks a hot mess.

Thx.

I recently bought Cyndi, mostly because I love Viva Glam. But I've actually fallen in love with it! I love bold reds and I usually hate lustres, but this is a creamy, smooth red that's appropriate for day looks or the office. Loooove it!

Gaga, however, looks like dozens of other pink lipsticks. I swatched it and just wasn't interested.

Hi Ladies! I just got the Viva Glam Gaga from a contest that I won. If you dont want to watch the entire video you can skip through to 4:45 and you can see how I wear it! Hope you guys like

I tried both of these when they came out but I ended up walking away with Gaga over Cyndi. Gaga is a lot to work with, you cant just wear it out the tube, but I have been wearing it a lot this summer and I love it more each time. I am NW45 and I paired it with nightmoth l/l and vino l/l to wear and I use a sheer pink gloss I got from sephora to comeplete the lip.

sold me on Gaga!

 

[bediva33]

I'm NC50. I bought the Cyndi color. I didn't like how the Gaga color looked once I tried it on.

 

[Elle93]

I tried gaga but I said I'm doing not all that work just to make it look good on me but I still have to try Cyndi

 

[reesesilverstar]

Gaga does require work, but the result is GORGEOUS! Out the tube I really like Cyndi applied lightly with gloss. Makes my lips look so juicy, lol!

I was surprised in all the swatches of Gaga how ....'not great' it looked. You can tell it needs ALOT of work to look great unless you have amazingly smooth lips to start out with. A little too pink for me... Intrigued by Cyndi, though

I like the way you did it. I just used the Gaga with Currant lip liner but I do have cork liner and I'm gonna try it.

new to the lingo

what is the "ash factor" ? is that the feathering I'm seeing in pics on people?

The "ash factor" is the washed-out look that occurs on brown skin when unflattering colors (which are usually too light/cool/pale) are worn. It kind of gives the same look of chapped lips on brown women (a la Tyrone Biggums).

Some colors that give the "ash factor":
Lavender Whip
Viva Gaga
Bubbles

Among others.

okay, that cracked me up. Just don't put any pictures of Sha-Nay-Nay up too or I will pee in my pants.

I love Chapelle!

I'm really loving a neutral eye + Bite of An Apple blush + Viva Glam Cyndi l/g.

You ladies really must try this combo.
