Do we have a thread for the Viva Glam Ariana Grande v2? I cant find anything..

I thought we did but can't find it either!

I really like Hot Pepper! Do you know any mac lippies that are (close) dupes for it? I don't want to buy the whole box just for just the lippie lol and I might have close dupes in my stash. Even though I'm tempted right now.. because it's pretty great value with this box imo.

I also like Dark Twist but I really don't like the rest of the box.

I've been trying to use Studio Tech foundation for a while now and I just can't get it to look how I like.

What brush do you use? And what technique please. Thanks for the help.

I used it some years ago, but I went for heavier coverage because of my acne. I use my Zoeva foundation buffer for any foundation. A translucent powder (I had Mac prep+prime transparent loose, but I also really like the Essence color correcting powder compact) did look better than a colored one. And some highlighter and fix+ also helped to create a skin like effect since it can look quite cakey. Hope this helps a bit.

infused with glam - semi-opaque warmed up brown with red undertones and gold and copper red micro glitter
baby’s on fire- softened ruby red with silver and scarlet sparkle
wham - red brown with gold and copper glitter





I'm so bummed the shipping to Canada is $45!!!

Correct and the nude is Sparkle Spirit according to mixedgemsuk, and this is a Christmas Selfridges exclusive.

well I have until December to save up for the crazy Selfridges shipping, but I must have Sparkle Spirit lol

Thank you Buffy.

I've been dying a bit over the Girl Band Glam look in a box, I Love the purple lipstick packaging. Might get it!

Oh yes that one looks nice too. I'm still unsure as they are $99 each in our country. Yikes.

 

[Buffy89]

Thank you Buffy.

You're welcome. Hope it was helpful.

Would be around 70 dollars here in Denmark, not super bad but yeah, a tad hefty.

 

[Corally]

They're €46 (about $52) here, not too bad imo. I'm so tempted to get Downtown Diva and/or Sassy Siren.. but I have two lippies in my cart (Ablaze and Retro Rouge) and I want three lippies from It's a Strike and I want almost the entire China Glaze fall collection so yeah..

I am looking forward to some prom images I saw of new paints. I loved paints and paint pots.
