The latest celebrity to put their name to the MAC Viva Glam charity project is Ariana Grande. The collection of two products launched yesterday on the MAC website, and will be on counters in the UK from the 4th February. Having seen pictures of the products (and the almost BLACK looking lipstick!) I was really intrigued by the colour choices...
I managed to get my hands on a set to show you all today - let me know what you think and if you'd wear them?! Read on for a full review & swatches...
If you don't know about the MAC Viva Glam products, the entire RRP (minus VAT) goes towards helping people living with and affected by HIV and AIDS, so if you're going to treat yourself to a lipstick, you can do so knowing your money is going to a great cause. Seeing as there's nothing quite like a brand new box-fresh MAC lipstick (oh, the smell of it... my guilty pleasure!) it makes treating yourself to every single Viva Glam product that MAC bring out pretty tempting!
For their collaboration with Ariana Grande, they have released one lipstick and one lipglass. The lipstick is a deep, matte plum shade that looks pretty scary in the bullet (as I said before, it looks straight up black in the product shots!) but once applied it's really quite beautiful. Yes, it's quite a gothic, dark look but if you like a statement lip then it's definitely a good one! Sometimes purple lipstick can look very questionable, but this is the right tone of berry that is still flattering. The texture is really nice; impressively easy to apply and comfortable for a matte finish.
The lipglass is the polar opposite to the lipstick - a sheer pale pink with lots of glitter. I have to say I had hoped for a little more pigment from this one, but it actually looks really cool layered over the top of the lipstick (as I've shown below) and I think I'll get a lot of wear out of this layering it over more neutral lipsticks too.
All in all, I'm a big fan of both of these! The lipstick is £15.50 and the gloss is £14.50, available now on the MAC website and on counters from 4th February! Will any of you be picking one or both of these up?!
I really want the lipstick! Is so pretty! But now you also made me want the gloss! They look incredible together!

The lipstick is such a great statement colour, I think I prefer it matt. But I like the lipgloss on it's own XX

I love the layered look, amazing! It really brings out the colour of the lipstick xxx
ReplyDeleteLucy @ La Lingua | Travel, Food, Italy
That lipstick look beautiful! I've been enjoying a dark lip this winter so I must add this to my collection! xx

I love how the lipstick looks with the gloss; it has such a pretty shine. :]
ReplyDelete// ▲ itsCarmen.com ▲
That colour is amazing! I'm totally loving purple colours at the moment! I wouldn't have thought of putting the gloss over the lipstick either, can defo get your money's worth from it by layering colours

I have literally just ordered this lipstick! I am so excited for it to arrive even more so after seeing these swatches! I was going to buy the lipglass so I had the set but decided against it as I'm not overly keen on lipgloss. I always love how it looks on other people but I just can't deal with how it feels on my lips haha!

I love statement lipsticks. I have MAC Media - do you think this deep berry is similar or different enough for it to be worthwhile for me to purchase? X

I have to say that the lipstick is stunning, even if it does look scary in the tube. This could be more about the newer, sexier Ariana Grande. The lip glass on the other hand is definatly something I would pair with old school girlie girl AG. Both beautiful products none the less :)

Oh my gosh, these MAC Ariana Grande lip products are to die for! It's like bad girl lipstick vs. good girl lipglass! Really tempted to get the lipstick though. :)

Ok now I'm ordering it.. I've been toying with it since I got the email earlier. Soo good to see real swatches, was a little worried it would be jet black. All for a good cause, that's a good enough excuse x
ReplyDeleteTamz | http://www.throughneweyesx.com
I'm so torn on if I want one of these or not! On one hand it's supporting a great cause, but I can't decide if I would actually wear either of them enough to justify the purchase. They both are beautiful though, MAC always has to tempt me with their releases it seems :s

What a lovely shade. I much prefer the dark one but I'm probably not bold enough to wear it haha!
ReplyDeleteLizzie Dripping
The lipstick is so gorgeous, but the colour is so, so deep - I love dark purple and burgundy lipsticks, but I find this colour somewhat scary. That being said, I'd love to try it out myself to see if it'd suit me :D
ReplyDeleteThank you for the swatches, we can't really tell what the colours look like without them, that's very helpful :)
