Oooh how I ADORE MAC Viva Glam….when the original red shade first came out I was beside myself and I wore it everywhere! Then Viva Glam softened and we got to see her nude, beigy pink and now PINK PINK thanks to international hiphop/pop stars Nicki Minaj and Ricky Martin. The fearless Ricky Martin and [...]
Black lipstick is notoriously hard to wear, BUT this version has SO many possibilities. In honor of Black Friday, M∙A∙C is reissuing limited quantities of their coal black cult classic, Dark Knight Lipstick. The lipstick is a cremesheen finish so it is much much lighter weight than its counterparts. There are so many ways to [...]
Do you love glossy balms? How about layering lippies?? I do that all the time…and we all know of my aversion to lip balm of any kind. So, when YSL Volupte Sheer Candy [$30] came across my desk…I was DONE. The packaging alone had me at hello….BUT I really love the formula. Now, if you [...]
Hello all! I know it’s wayyyy past 7 days but things have been busy over here at TMG HQ. Now, the last day of my challenge was May 1st (see my kick off video here) and I have to tell you that I was super impressed with this lipstick for a few reasons. The colors [...]
Hey!! I am SO excited about this lipstick I can’t even stand it. CoverGirl has a new lip color that is just beyond the beyond as far as color and payoff are concerned. I am doing a 7 Day challenge to see if the claims of softer smoother lips are a reality. This color glides [...]
I love gloss, but a gloss masquerading as a lipstick is even BETTER! That is exactly what I think of MAC’s latest for spring called Sheen Supreme. The lightweight look and feel of a gloss and the longevity of a lipstick with no stickiness/tackiness. The shades are endless and the formula is so light [...]
I am decidedly NOT a lipstick kinda gal (I think this happened over the past 4 years or so), I don’t like the heavy feeling so I just use more gloss now than I used to. A few lipsticks have changed my mind though and this is one of them. Bobbi’s new lightweight, color-saturated formula [...]
This is actually a huge collaboration….if you are not familiar with Nicki Minaj maybe I should fill you in. She is a female rap artist, who looks like a barbie doll and basically gained an underground following very quickly. So much so, that she started making appearances on other established artists singles THEN got herself [...]
When Black Orchid first arrived in 2006, I was dumbfounded. I love everything about Tom Ford and Black Orchid was no exception. I have several bottles of it and it remains one of my most coveted fragrances to date. When I heard of the limited edition collection, my heart skipped a beat….a solid fragrance?? Be [...]
I always look forward to anything MAC does with Viva Glam. AIDS awareness is as important today as it was 20 years ago. Having Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper as the latest Viva Glam spokepersons is a perfect fit. As part of the “From Our Lips” campaign, M∙A∙C will introduce Viva Glam Gaga and Viva [...]
