MAC Viva Glam Swatches, Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper

All proceeds from sales of MAC cosmetics Viva Glam go to AIDS charities through the MAC AIDS Fund. This year, the MAC Viva Glam spokeswomen are Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper. Great choices in my opinion! Also this year, the lip shades are not deep reds, unlike many past years.

The new VIVA GLAM collection has two lipsticks – Viva Glam Cyndi (Light Coral Red) and Viva Glam Gaga (Light Blue Pink), as well as corresponding makeup bags.

Both MAC Viva Glam shades are quite nice. For the pink lovers, the Lady Gaga is a pretty, but still a bit vibrant light pink. the Cyndi Lauper Viva Glam shade is my favorite though. It is a nice coral red that gives a sheer neutral to warm rosy red look. It lean toward coral, but not as much as the description would make it seem.

Below are swatches of the two shades. It is a total coincidence that they happened to perfectly match my Hello Kitty Band-Aid. Yes, I really do wear Hello Kitty Band-Aids (blush)!

Here is a better look without the Band-Aid

I suspect that I will be wearing the Cyndi Lauper Viva Glam shade quite a bit this spring.

Fergie is the new face of M.A.C. Cosmetics Viva Glam. In conjunction with that, visit the special Fergie and Viva Glam section on M.A.C.’s website.

If you are unfamiliar with Viva Glam, it is M.A.C. Cosmetic’s way of giving back, with limited edition lip colors that send the proceeds to the M.A.C. Aids Fund.

The addition of Fergie brings in a new shade of Viva Glam lipglass that is a nice berry/mauve shade. For lipgloss that gives back, go pick up a tube!

“Kiss Portraits” From DNA 11 Using M.A.C. Viva Glam Lipstick

This is pretty darn cool: Custom portraits of your own lip print! If I wasn’t feeling particularly broke, I would try it out in a heartbeat and make one in the Girl Gloss blog colors.

Kiss Portraits Featuring MAC Viva Glam DNA 11 MOMA Art

DNA 11, a company that makes custom portraits from DNA and fingerprints, is now offering a new line of modern art pieces called KISS Portraits(TM) made with M.A.C. Viva Glam lipstick. A portion of sales will be donated to the M.A.C. AIDS Fund.To create a portrait, customers can visit DNA 11.com, which allows them to choose colors, style, size and frame. DNA 11 will then send a lip-print collection kit which includes a M.A.C. Viva GLAM lipstick and Kiss image sheets to capture a lip print. Once DNA 11 receives the lip print back from the customer, designers hand trace the image, customize color and size, print on high quality canvas, varnish, frame the order, and ship it back to the customer.

DNA 11 Kiss Portrait M.A.C Viva Glam Custom Art

From the company’s press release:

“This was a natural extension to our existing product lines of personalized art pieces,” says Adrian Salamunovic, co-founder of DNA 11 said. “We wanted to continue creating products that involve customization but also appeal to a new audience. The KISS portrait is something sexy and cool for the modern woman, providing this demographic with the ultimate personal artistic statement.”

I love the idea of this and the way it integrates M.A.C.’s Viva Glam program. It would be a great holiday gift that adds a nice bonus with the charity aspect.
