Maybe I'm doing something wrong? lol Or is this just a hard color to wear?

 

i'm the exact same, i think the viva glam campaign is great but this colour just is not for me [and i'm NW10-15]

I  don't like nudes at all... or probably this is what I though because Viva Glam Gaga 2 is beautiful! I have tried it today and bought immediatly XD I didn't though it could suit me!!! I could buy another one in the future 

I wear this ls and lg with Cork liner....If I want a little more depth of color I use 80% liner.

i finally tried this on today.. and i loved it! i wore the l/s and l/g together and the effect was a nuded out lip with a hint of pink (my natural lip colour still showed through a little). i guess the colour depends on natural lip colours... loving loving this!

I love it. It looks very similar on me to 'The Faerie Glen' - which is fantastic cause that is my everyday go-to colour (but it was LE and I stupidly didn't buy a backup before it sold out :() Might grab a backup of this later in the year before it comes offsale :)

You could try Patisserie, I think it is somewhat close to TFG, at least it was for me.  Patisserie is slightly more peachy and more sheer.

LOL tyrone biggums.  I wonder if it is pulling ashy on us ladies with yellow undertones?  anyone else with yellow undertones notice this?

I am a yellow girl XD but my skin is quite fair in comparison to NC50 (I'm NC 20-25) and on me it's a light peach...maybe a touch darker than my skintone! It's also the only nude which suits me right now... Of course it's not easy to wear and don't suits everybody! uhm and it is also drying! But I love it!!
Try it with different lipglasses.. maybe it can work!!

well you have a year to buy it so there is no rush! 

I don't wear mine much....I bought the ls and lg more for the charity than the color.

I'm the same way - I just bought the ls, but I kinda figured the color probably wouldn't work on me. I figured if it did, it'd be like a less-pretty version of Tom Ford's "Blush Nude" on me. Alas, it's a bit more yellow than that.

I know the new viva glam holiday collection is coming but does anyone know if and when viva glam lady gaga is going away?
