MAC Ricky and Nicki for Viva Glam Discussion

[Richelle83]

Funny the ones I have seen said you have until Feb 15th to redeem the code.

Personal offer code expires WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2012, that's what I got in the email a friend sent me.

I am quite annoyed that I only buy online off of the site and didnt get an invite.

shame on you MAC

 

[Knope2012]

That is annoying that not everyone got an invite. I get all of MAC's other e-mails, I wonder why I didn't get this one?

 

[Knope2012]

I searched Nicki Minaj on the site in vain hope, and when I did, you can sign up to receive an e-mail when it's available. I did, so it's worth a shot I doubt I'll get an e-mail now, but I'd like to at least try.

 

[Richelle83]

Personally I'd rather them do it this way instead of having another Pink Friday of Flamingo fiasco. Besides the release is the 9th I believe so there is plenty of time to get one or two.

 

[OctoberViolet]

Thank you, Knope!

I'm not going to use mine but I don't see how I can transfer to someone since it verifies my email address and personal code

Is this LE? I thought these were usually available for a year?

 

[LMD84]

yeah usually they are out for a year...

I don't think you can transfer, I think that people who purchase one can send out two invites to friends with another generated code.

That's what I thought, too! If it was out on the 9th, would it be on Pro now? I don't know if they release VG products early on Pro.

I thought it would be out on PRO now too. WTF

 

[SatelliteDrmr]

I just did a live chat. I didn't think to ask about Pro. I asked for in store dates, as I have someone picking it up for me... I'm going to my counter tomorrow, so I will ask while I'm there.


Janice: Hello - I am wondering what date the new Viva Glam (Nicki/Ricky) will be available in stores/counters? Maura: Hi Janice! Maura: We hope it will be next week sometime but I don't have any confirmation yet. Be sure to sign up for our email list to be notified. Maura: Or contact your local location for on counter specifics.

So, on the comments on another site, some people are saying they were able to buy VG Nicki at the shop/cook event. I'm feeling disappointed, as there was not an event to go to near me, despite having 3 counters, and 1 FS. Also, how come some events had the VG products, but others did not?

I don't know if this has been discussed yet... I bought Nicki's viva glam and it has shipped today...

Is Viva Glam Nicki Minaj the same lipstick as her "Pink Friday" ? I only ask, because both are "Satin" finish. As well as the promo's for the Glam one
isn't different family of blue pinks that have a slight lavender hint to them...

Also I assume Ricky doesn't have a lipstick, but is just lending his face and name to the campaign.

Also what is up with Lady Gaga 1 not being released too long ago and now Nicki's in the same blue pink family???
I would really dig a viva glam Pink-Coral in amplified finish... Think past LE "Made to love" color but do it in an amplified finish or a rich red like Runway LE in a lustre finish?

Even Nicki tweeted that it comes out on the 12th or the 14th...

I just got my noticed that my order has shipped.

Ricky has a lip conditioner
I think Pink Friday & the VG lippies look very different from pics I have seen of the new VG. If anything the Gaga & PF lippies are similar, the new VG looks very different from both of those

Did anyone outside of the US (specifically Canada) get an invite to order VG Nicki? I do most of my MAC shopping online, and haven't gotten anything...

 

[elegant-one]

I'm soo happy to have mine,it's bright!It's beautiful and its this warm carnation pink!

Wow, you got it already! The color sounds wonderful. mine will be here Friday.

Don't worry, I bet Mac is sending the emails out in batches so the site doesn't get overloaded. And, to prevent those who buy large quantities to put up on Ebay from buying them all.
