Yes, they come with Sugar Sweet and Colour Ready in April here

I still have the lipglass from last year, it is gorgeous!

To answer the question, the gloss on my hand is actually Simply Delicious from SugarSweet. Sorry for the confusion, I didn't think to swatch the VG lipglass. Hehe

Lol thank you so much Adina! I loved that same color from your sugarsweet swatches, and I really should've put two and two together!

[Swirlgirl]

ooohhh. Pretty. Thanks Adina! I am glad I ordered this along with my Sugarsweet goodies yesterday. I think the color is gorgeous - - something I could wear everyday. I am a mid-tone pink lippie girl though. Do we know, is this a Lustre? It sure looks like it....

[Krasevayadancer]

You are welcome ladies!

VGVISE is a lustre

You're lucky!!! No Nordies near me And the MAC counter at Macy's is SO behind they don't even have Grand Duos yet!!! Good thing I ordered my Love Rock online as soon as they had them on the MAC site- it got here yesterday... before Macy's counter even got them lol. I guess it's good on the wallet though at least

Thanks everyone for the descriptions and thoughts about the new VI SE lippie- I have been waiting for this!

the VG VI SE Lipglass is sold out online... but that isn't brand new. The VG VI SE lipstick is the only NEW one that just came out. And it wasn't sold out online this morning when I looked.

A few swatches for you, since the swatch thread isn't up yet...

I love this collections.

[omgitzstephanie]

Yay! I'm so excited for my first Viva Glam Lipstick!

[abbyquack]

I do really like the color of this lipstick..but the finish is a bit disappointing. I want more satins!

[Krasevayadancer]

Amen to that Abby! I love me some satins and mattes!

[Susanne]

More frosts please!! I love my Bombshell forever

[dreamer246]

More ACs for me! But lustres are my 2nd faves, so I'm fine with that as well.

[coachkitten]

I purchased this lipstick today and I really like it. I used it wish dervish lip liner and it was the perfect dusty rose pink. I agree that I wish it was a satin or matte.

[romi79_2008]

I feel best when I wear lustres so this one is just fine, glad I ordered it...now I just have to wait. tomorrow arrives to my parents than a couple of weeks till it gets to Romania...I might wear it in the delivery room

here's a random question for you all but is viva glam VI really limited edition? because it's been out for 2 years?? so will it ever be taken away or can i safely leave not buying another gloss yet??

Viva Glam VI is perm.

This is Viva Glam VI Special Edition which is LE

[chickatthegym]

I bought the lipstick today and it's GORGEOUS!!! Looks even better in person than any pictures *of course*

[Winthrop44]

I bought this l/s at my counter today too. I really like it applied very lightly and it looks even better with VGVI SE gloss over it!

[stv578]

I also went in today to have a look at this! I tried it on and thought it looked really pretty on its own. Then the SA brought over the vg VI se gloss, and said "this is new as well". I told her it wasn't, that it came out last year... but she insisted it was NEW, and did I want to purchase it?

So I told her I wanted to get the lipstick, and sure enough, she grabs vg vi, so i politely asked, is that the SE? And she barked "what do you mean SE?". Um, special edition i say. She looked at it, and sure enough, it wasn't. She then asked me again, if i wanted the gloss as well.

Anyway, then I asked her if I could look at Perfect Topping MSF, because I wanted to see if there were any that had loads of lavender in it. She said, um, they're all the same once you swish all the colours together. To which i replied, "i don't think they're all the same". She responded, YA, THEY ARE.

Luckily, a really nice MA came over and told her, "actually, they're not entirely the same. She just wants to pick one out. Just go take some out for her to see". SA just looks at her and says, "well then, can you help her, cause I gotta go do something".

Okay, so luckily the MA that ended up helping me was really nice and i was on my lunch, so in a rush. And yeah, i ended up exchanging my MSF, not something i normally do, but hey, they really jacked up the price on these, i want to be happy with the end result.

Rant... over...
