i didn't either to be honest! but when i saw it in the tube i thought it could work. when i applied it i freaking loved it! even hubby complimented me on it and he isn't a fan of loud and bright lip colours on me!

Did anybody get the lip conditioner? I bought one so far and will pick up another one soon, though I wish it had a hint of color. I'm sure Ricky would have been o.k. with a tinted conditioner. :)

it's true i don't think he would...though maybe you could mix it with vgnicki?

If I want to mix, I'd probably use the lip mix as these work best for that purpose. However, it's not very practical on the go. Oh well, there's nothing wrong with an old-fashioned, transparent lip balm. :)

there most certainly isn't. :) and it's in a tube to boot! (as opposed to the pots) if i didn't have three of the pots (one plain, two tinted), i'd probably pick up the tube one for that reason. it'd be great if they could make the beige one in a tube.

The tubes and the pots have different texture, so if you get a chance, try them out to see the difference.

I got my Nicki today! I tried it on and it looked very springy! I think I have to put some gloss over it (can't wear mattes and satins on their own).

Here's some comparisons:



BL, NS, VGN, WMS, Red Full Stop, FOL

i'm sad to say that i haven't yet. i shall have to get it at some point though because i make a point of buying most viva glam products :)

You can also wear Nicki like this, a thin layer of lipstick and a gloss with golden sheen on top!

You can dab and smoosh for a great stain with minimal transfer. If you don't gloss over it, though, it is a bit drying. (A good job for tender tones to fix though!)

More love for VGN from me!!! I love how it looks when applied lightly on my lips - a great alternative if you're not looking for in-your-face lips.

Did temp rising bring out the coral tone better for you? it looks pretty pink on me, wishing it had a lil more orange in it

I wonder if its a batch thing or it looks more coral on different complexions? I am a NC20, really no visible yellow undertones, but they are there I am told...
