Re: Viva Glam Cyndi or Gaga?

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

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

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!

Re: Viva Glam Cyndi or Gaga?

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.

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. tong.gif

Today I wore Viva Gaga with chestnut l/l and Ms. Fizz dazzleglass and it was very pretty. . . even the MAC MUA was like, " u need to get backups !!!" although Ms Fizz is discontinued ssad.gif

I think Viva Gaga l/s is wearable for us WOC

I have them both.

But I think that the Gaga one is the best. Maybee the Lauper one is better teamed up with the lipgloss.

I bought the Viva Cyndi and rocked that coral colour for the passed summer. I think the Gaga is pretty, but just not on me... Maybe if it was a creamier pink and not so blue-based /ashy? Dunno.

Im really thinking bout getting the Gaga lipstick and maybe the Cyndi lipglass, but gotta try em first.

i'm a pink lipstick kinda girl so i have the gaga lipstick and i really like it. i usually wear it with magenta lipliner and it goes like a glossy version of pink neveau which is one of my fave lipsticks evaaaaaaaaaa.

i got Gaga like a month go had a few exchanges to make and some B2M so i just got it on a whim, like most of you ladies have said out the tube its not cute, but with a dark liner, i used NYX deep purple and a lipgloss i used NYX natural its really nice! You really have to play with Gaga to get it to work i'm an nc 50

Does anyone know if any of these colors is going to be permanent? Or "what it takes" for a Viva Glam to go permanent?

These colors are only available for a year.  I believe they are the 1st LE viva glam colors, not 100% sure on that though,

 

I know viva glam gaga may be dupable with a MAC perm color.  the swatch thread has that info.

I absolutely LOVEthe cyndi lipstick! I think it is the perfect red for girls who are scared of doing a "true" red lip, because the Cyndi is pretty sheer. The Gaga lipstick is also really pretty, a beautiful bubble gum pink.

After reading all the posts, I had to try them because unfortunately I passed on them when they were first released.  My local MAC store only had the Lady Gaga lipgloss, so I had to resort to eBay to get Gaga Lipstick and both Cyndi lipstick and lipgloss.  Can't wait to try them on when they arrive.

Cyndi is my favorite lipstick in general! Gaga is pretty but too frosty pink for me.
