MAC Viva Glam Rihanna 2 (Sept 11, 2014)

Hahah yeah that's the one I really want and missed out on. And diamonds. Ugh...

Diamonds is pretty, but I probably could of lived without buying it. You could probably find it in the clearance bin on here though, I'm sure someone is probably selling a backup or something.

IF this type of very grayish taupe color really floats your boat, they were quite different. But they're different the way different reds are different, so it's more a matter of degree than "Wow two totally different colors". I think VGR2 will be more flattering on medium skin tones than Icon, but pale and dark skin tones could pull either off equally. If this is a weird color to you or if frosts are hard for you to stomach, you might hate them both! I guess if anyone is getting one out of curiosity, it's better to get VGR2, because it goes to a good cause, whether you actually wind up using it or not.

I'm getting both, but I can rock these colors - I'll wear Icon for more daytime things and VGR2 for dressier situations. It's like having two related colors instead of one with a BU.

Thank you very much for your thoughts! I'm definitely going to make my way up to check out both now.

I was just wearing this today! I like it. Missed out on Nude though. For some reason I just did not even try it on

.

Still iffy if I should get these now or later with the Holiday set.

I tried on Nude and didn't like it but I did want to try and snag BGRR but missed out on that bad boy.

 

[NaomiH]

I agree. I would also add Pleasure Bomb and Heroine to that list though.

I missed out on PB, but Heroine is definitely a great lippy. I'd also toss RiRi Boy and Woo on there as those were fantastic as well.

I just ordered the lipstick and gloss! Hope I don't hate them!

I have it and I rarely reach in my makeup drawer to grab it.

 

[NaomiH]

Who else is skipping the lipglass? Its gorgeous but I would never wear it.

 

[NaomiH]

Are both the lipstick and lipglass in the holiday bag? I can't remember. I prefer to wait for the holiday bag to get both since I haven't bought VGR1 yet.

I believe they are.

I almost never reach for it either, been probably a good 5 or 6 months since I even glanced in it's general direction. :/

I should probably do that, it's just collecting dust right now. Poor Diamonds.

I haven't been a member for 30 days :/ But I always see it selling for ridiculous prices.

If this is how it looks on me I will but a couple backups. So beautiful:eyelove:

I agree. It looks stunning on that blogger. I just ordered both. Yaay. Hope it comes this week. Being in Cali is hard with Mac.

 

[crystalzi]

Anyone know if it releases on nordstrom today? Kinda need to know if I should order from mac right now.

 

[Addict4MAC]

I believe they are.

Thanks. Just checked the holiday thread. It will just be both lipsticks, no lipglasses. So I suppose I can pick up the lipglass now then.

I thought it was the same as last year where it was a bag and the lipstick/lip glass combo in it. It looks to me like you choose which set you want and not just a bag with both lipsticks in it.

"Rihanna continues her reign as the star of M∙A∙C VIVA GLAM. Her red and metallic mauve Lipstick and Lipglass take centre stage in velvety soft packaging featuring her signature. All tied up with the gift of glam, they are paired with this season’s limited-edition glittering red Viva Glamorous Bag, perfectly capturing Rihanna’s fearless, confident style. Every cent of the selling price of VIVA GLAM Rihanna goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS."

There is then an area where you choose the VGR1 or VGR2, no pics yet though. :/
