I own a few of the Mac Viva Glam lipsticks. I really love the texture, pigmentation and opacity of the Mac range in general and appreciate the philanthropic aspect of the Viva Glam product. My favourite is Viva Glam I as i have a love for red lipstick always. I have two of the creamier nudes in the range, however much as I would love to wear them they are a little too pale for me and wash me out a bit

Would use it again?
Did it do what it said it would?
Would recommend it to a friend?
In 1994, MAC introduced VIVA GLAM, an outspoken deep red that was universal in appeal and glamour.
In 1997, a second lipstick was created VIVA GLAM II, a pinked mauve.
VIVA GLAM III, a foxy brown plum launched in 2000. VIVA GLAM IV, a heartful rose charged with gold, introduced in March 2002.
In March 2004, Viva Glam V makes its debut, a pure neutral pink with a delicious Lustre finish!
VIVA GLAM VI, the newest member of the VIVA GLAM family, is a warm terracotta-plum with pearl finish. Wear it alone or finish it off with a coat of VIVA GLAM VI Lipglass.
Every cent of the selling price of VIVA GLAM Lipstick and Lipglass is donated to the MAC AIDS Fund to support men, women, and children living with HIV and AIDS.
6 shades have so far been created.

Big fan of VIVA GLAM!
I am a huge fan of the Viva glam lipsticks and an even bigger fan of the Lady Gaga Viva glam collection. I own all the colours and I owned the glosses too. If you are in need of the perfect nude, or a great pink I highly recommend hunting these lipsticks down!
Tips: Use a lip liner and apply with a brush for the perfect pout!

My go to lippy
I must start by saying I love Lady GaGa. So back in 2010 when I heard that Lady GaGa was headlining the Viva Glam campaign with Cyndi Lauper. I knew I had to have it. So I asked my parents and they got it for me for my birthday. I was super happy. I got both of them of course. I find that the Cyndi Lauper one which is a natural light red is really great for during the day and the Lady Gaga one which is more of a bright pink is better for night time going out. I love them and adore tehm and I would buy more in a heartbeat if they were still going.

Love!
It tick's nearly every box for the ideal lips sticks! Apart from the price but its worth it. Texture, colour variety and opaqueness. Every girl that loves make up has to own something of MAC. Viva Glam Lippies are one of them!
Tips: I apply lip liner before I apply RED's or bold colours along with lip brush. Also I conceal around the edges after lippie to ensure a crisp line all around <3

Viva Glam II
I have Viva Glam II and it is STUNNING. It's the perfect darker nude colour. It feels really comfortable on the lips and applies well. I love this lipstick, it hangs out in my handbag and I adore the red detailing.

My perfect nude lip colour
Seeing me dithering at the lipstick selection, the lady in the Santa Monica MAC store took pity on me and asked what I was looking for. I told her I needed a nude lipstick but couldn't decide. She took me to the Viva Glam selection and showed me Viva Glam V, which I hadn't even considered. But of course, she wasmright. This lip colour can complement pink palettes, warm to peach tones, or blend nicely with beige or sandy hued make up. The lustre finish never appears brash or glittery, instead it shimmers gently. Application is easy, a single coat from the tube is covers well and lasts without feeling dry or heavy. This lipstick is very forgiving of the tiny lines around my lips that richer colours like to highlight! As with all MAC lipsticks, the fragrance of Viva Glam V is delicious. The tube is elegant and durable, with the red line and lettering that distinguish it from other MAC lipsticks.

Viva Glam Rihanna
I adore this lipstick. It's the perfect red with a subtle gold shimmer. It has the usual delicious vanilla scent and for me lasts around 4 hours. I also love the amazing red limited edition packaging.
Tips: Use the matching lipglass over the top for a beautiful glossy shine!

Viva Glam Rihanna
I have this lipstick in the shade Viva Glam Rihanna, and I absolutely adore it.
The shade is a gorgeous frosted Christmas red. It has the classic MAC vanilla scent which I love. The lipstick is nice and creamy and just glides over the lips. The lipstick does not tug on the lips or settle into the lines on the lips. I find that this lipstick lasts all day throughout eating and drinking as well.
The packaging on the lipstick is also gorgeous. It is in a matte deep red bullet, which shines a brighter red in the light. It looks gorgeous sitting in my lipstick holder!
Tips: If you're having any doubts about picking this up, remember the full cost of the lipstick is going straight to the MAC AIDS fund. <3

You've done it again mac
Love this!
Im not really a bright color lipstick type of person, I tend to buy allot of nudes, but I figured every girl needs a red lipstick (or two) in their life
This is a lovely color, its not too drying and stay really well. I did find I needed a lip pencil to keep it tidy but still really impressed with this product
Pretty packaging and love the mac vanilla smell to their lipsticks
its a a deep red, but is still quite bright to me, love that its matte
Tips: team with a lip liner to keep the edged tidy :)

Viva glam V1 is the best 'my lips, but better' Shade. I never need to worry about having a mirror on me to apply it. It has a glossy finish as its a lustre.
