MAC - Viva Glam Fall 2010 Discussion

Today I`ll get both de ls and lg of Cindy , so excited

 

[Susanne]

I forgot to pick up my Gag l/g last week! EEk! But it was so busy at the counter because of VV.

I will get it this weekend I hope!

i didnt get my cyndi this week because i spent so much on VV. i will have to wait until next month which is a shame!

When I saw Cyndi l/g swatch on Temptalia, I knew I must get this colour. I don't like the Cyndi l/s because I think it's too red for my liking. I got the l/g last week and I'm so in love...

It's so beautiful and pigmented. I'm wearing it again today.

How is it different on you compared to the l/s?

I should've tried Cyndi l/g instead of just skipping it cos I didn't like the l/s either

I stupidly bought cyndi l/s without swatching it on my lips first.
It sucks on me

it leans too coral, I hate coral, I thought it would look more raspberry-ish

I feel stupid

dont feel stupid sweetie!

just try and experiment. what happens if you layer it over a pinky lipstick? does that pink it up for you a lilttle?

 

[Alty]

I was so disappointed I had not even thought about layering

Thanks

I tried with a few lipsticks/lipglasses and it gets nicer, I think I might use it with a rose romance l/s, which is way too "barbie" for me anyway, so I might have found a way to use both!

I need to see it in daylight, I will update.

thanks


Oh and happy b-day

I love wearing Revenge Is Sweet from VV collection over Cyndi. RIS adds pink and it makes them look more natural on my mauve pink lips. I'm glad Cyndi is luster finish. It's really easy to wear.

I did the live chat this morning and asked the MA how long this collection would be available since I want to backup Cyndi. She said it will be available throughout the rest of 2010. If you want anything from this collection, don't wait too long, girls.

On my sis, (she is way more tanned than me) it pulls a gorgeous raspberry colour whereas on my pale skin it def pulls a sort of off red colour. I don't tend to wear mine that much as its kinda slippy and moves around a bit.

Ps, i've never tried a lip product from mac on yet so i wouldn't feel silly about not trying it on.

thanks you

and i shall await your update when you get to experiment with it more

Ok, I played a little bit and here are the results!

Please forgive my lack of ability in putting lipstick on. I always go with sheer lipglosses because of my giant lips so I guess I've never learned how to paint my lips properly

Also excuse the spot and the empty piercing hole under my lips

Cyndi on its own




Cyndi with A Rose Romance Lipstick




Cyndi + my favorite lipglass: steal my heart!





what do you think? better? I think the "coral" tinge shows up mostly under cold artificial lights, while these are all in sunlight. Anyway…I like it much better with some pink. I wanna try it with some deeper red...

 

[LittleMaryJane]

I like them all, Alty... All of them are great shades. I'm a total sucker for Cyndi though so I think I prefer it on it's own but it doesn't seem to be for everybody. (You have nice lips

)

thanks
