It definitely will be restocked. Should be out for about a year!
It seems they have already restocked it?

I love this color on me. I ordered it with my AG products, &I've been giving those lippies a little more love than this one. I was scared it was going to wash me out and make me look weird, but I actually like it a lot on it's own. This color is also perfect for that ombre look, as everyone has discovered.

Has anyone caught YouTube's Jaclyn Hill in her latest vid-"Nicki Minaj Makeup Tutorial"?

This woman is as INSANELY GORGEOUS as she is entertainingly informative!

If I was more proficient at posting, I would -how do you say it -Hyper Drive? umm Hyper Space?umm HyperLink?! -her URL.

Her flawless application of Magenta Lip liner, and Nicki's lippie will simply destroy you for anything less! Enjoy!

At the end of the day there is simply no more delightfully wicked vice that discovering yet another talented Beauty Guru! -especially when the lippie being profiled is one that I've coveted since Temptalia teased us with its imminent release!

Intriguingly, many gals have been intimidated by the notion of VIVA GLAM NICKI 2 casting a yellow pall on the teeth- however, I've happily discovered quite the contrary! My teeth have never looked more KELLY RIPA white- I am unabashedly thrilled with this MAC duo!

Even my 26 yr. old- who ordinarily finds her mom overly Broadway dramatic - is smitten with the Lipglass!

For all of you gals who love the opacity of ViVA Glam Nicki 2 0- BUT would kill for a MORE LUMINOUS finish try layering it over REVLON"S JUST BITTEN KISSABLE LIP BALM/ STAIN chubby crayon in "Darling Cherie" - a lovely blue hued violet/lilac! It offers the finished look a very pretty nuanced juicy lip- minus the tackiness of the Lipglass . Especially wearable if you've got alot of talking/lecturing/teaching on the docket!

Ditto! My mum enjoys makeup, but can't put it all together on herself. Whenever she visits I give her a little make over and a bag full of goodies.

You gave me a really GOOD laugh!!

Thank you for the compliment! As a University Professor I must confess that in the theatre one cannot help but be immersed and wondrously affected by the world of makeup! I will say however- that I do completely understand where your Mom is coming from- it is deeply ingrained in us Moms to preserve the pristine youthfulness of our daughters skin and- as such see the occluding potential of makeup as undermining.
As for having an overly dramatic mother along the lines of Amy Poehler- my daughter is a veritable Tina Fey in the world of eye-ball rolling and would physically groan upon being dragged to a MAC PRO counter as a teen!
Honestly though, I was really reluctant to have her be a drone to the world of everyday makeup until ...well into her post graduate -degree in cell biology and anatomy - and it is really only recently that she expresses how euphoric she is at how beautiful her skin still is!! :) I'm talking tundra-driven-snow. finely milled French soap lovely! So there may have been some great "method" to your mother's "madness" as the adage goes!
Only now is she making up for lost time in becoming quite the LIPSTICK JUNKIE and covets the time we spend laughing at the MAC PRo counters! Thanks!

I cannot imagine a more lovely tradition! Trust when I tell you that despite how 'artiste extraordinaire' you might be at illustrious makeup application- it PALES is comparison to the JOYOUS FUN she must have sitting, gazing up at daughter whose flurry of deft hand application must make her SO PROUD!!!!
GeeZ! Who wouldn't kill for a MAC makeup goody bag resplendent in current-release/TEMPTALIA approved goodies everytime a family member visited??? Really lovely!

I was drinking a Starbuck"s Latte upon reading your response and laughed so hard at the your comical spontaneity that of course I choked!

I envision you an absolute delight to your parents who probably adore their daughter in her most natural unadorned state! I must confess I'm pretty similar save for the fact that when my daughter visits it has become just a hysterical tradition of me dragging her under feigned protest to the nearest MAC PRO store.
Really I'm essentially a Lippie-Doyenne whereas she is all about perfecting the ingenue/lightly smokey eye look. Honestly it's just a boat-load of Rachel/Monica/Phoebe hijinks followed by Mother collapsing and needing a Double Espresso! :)

I just could not make these work. It gave me the horrid powder donut look while making my teeth look horrendous. I actually prefer the original VGN. I am going to exchange the l/s and l/g for VG 1 and VG 4 which are two of my staples.

Awws. Thank you! We have a truly unique relationship, but I'm super excited because we finally settled on dates and she's coming over to visit from Scotland in April.

My mom wore the same lipstick for over 45 years, from the late 1960s until she died at the end of last summer - a corally orange, which was a good color on her - after i convinced her to stop wearing a terrible unflattering 1950s red. She had light olive skin and a soft cloud of black hair that turned totally white before she was 40. If she wanted to add some color to her cheeks, she just used her lipstick. Black cake eyeliner, no eyeshadow or mascara. And liquid foundation a bit lighter than her natural skin color.

She was an artist, a painter. But she couldn't understand why i wore different colors of lipstick, eyeshadow, blush, etc. and she generally complained about the colors, especially when they were colors she would NEVER wear, even though I was the one wearing them. We had completely different coloring - i have fair skin (15-20, neutral) and brown hair which, at nearly 64, has some scattered silver threads, but the only concentration of white hair is at the temples and only really shows when i wear my hair up.

I prefer dramatic makeup, especially vampy and unnatural lip colors - although I do know how to do a "natural" look when the situation calls for it.

I am waiting for MAC Heroine lipliner to come out before I buy VGN2 to mitigate the washout look and hopefully make it look more wearable on me.

Have you tried it with Magenta lip liner? It looks lovely with that and I've also lined my lips with Heroine lipstick and filled them in lightly, then added the Nicki on top which looks nice :)
