So ladies and ummmmm ladies, Here are the much awaited MAC Viva Glam Lipsticks – Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper. They have launched in India today.:) 
The two Viva Glams sitting pretty on the coushiony base. 🙂
MAC Viva Glam Lady Gaga is a bluish toned bubblegum pink and has a lustre finish. It would look pretty on mostly women with fair skintones. The lipsticks are sheer but can be built up to a nice opaque colour. I found the the colour very pretty and one of those that can be worn every single day for a nudish summery look.
MAC Viva Glam Cyndi is a coral red colour and has a glossy finish to it. Again it’s a lustre finish and can be built up to a nice opaque colour. You may do nice smokey eyes with this colour. You’ll rock! 😉
Here are the swatches.:) 
And here is me wearing Lady Gaga on my lips. 
Gaga again. 
And this is Cyndi on my lips. 
Another one. 🙂 
The price of both the lipsticks is Rs 920 as of now but it’s going to increase in a day or two. Also, all the money collected from viva Glam Lipsticks is going to go for MAC Aids fund. It’s an awesome awesome campaign by MAC and they definitely deserve support from us. I have got my Viva Glam 4 so I didn’t purchase any of these. 🙂

Btw the MUA told me that I have nice pouty lips. I ended up laughing so loud at the store. Blame you guys. :X-P:
UPDATE: I just received my MAC Viva Glam Gaga from the PR today. 🙂

When I saw the pics of these 2 lippies I had thght I wld like Gaga more.. but now when i see the swatches I am tending towards the Cyndi one.
Gaga might wash out the colour from your face .So you need a brighter makeup with that one. Cyndi worn alone would brighten up your face. 🙂
Actually I liked Cyndi more than gaga. Honest! 🙂
Same with me Tanveer. I like the Cyndi one better.
Cute! I like the Cyndi more but I like the Gaga too,
Think I’d use Gaga for day and Cyndi for night :lashes:
.-= Sunaina´s last blog ..Happy housewife =-.
he he I guess there is a common vote for Cyndi here. 🙂
I am liking the Cyndi lauper more…..according to me Gaga would look good only on very selective skin tone ….
I agree , HD. Gaga would look better on people with fairer skin tones but may be teamed up well with nice bold eyes. 🙂
I am gonna have both 😛
he he and you’ll feel good after buying them. They are for super good cause. 🙂
I’m likin Cyndi more but I also like Gaga .. I thot it will wash out people above NC 30 skintone but it works quite well on you too , Poutmati 😛
.-= Palak´s last blog ..Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Pencil Review =-.
Aww!! Thank you.
And all this poutmati thingy echoed in my ears as soon as the MUA called my lips pouty. Rather than saying thank you to her I ended up laughing so loud and then poor thing was asking, what happened. 😀 Obviously I said nothing. :rotfl:
haha .. pta hai I read your , Jomol and Priyanka’s XXX rated comments and ROTFL but never dare to participate cz these things are just WAY above my intake capacity .. But I enjoy it thoroughly.. I’m more like a silent spectator !!
I sometimes wonder How this blog has become a second home for everyone out here and its like a family where no one preaches 😀
Makes me feel part of IMBB and I feel so proud of it 🙂
Thanks for this wonderful blog Rati :-* :heart:
.-= Palak´s last blog ..Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Pencil Review =-.

Hi Rashmi,
I used to be NC 40 but now I am NC 35. NC 40 is slightly darker for me. If you are NC 40 it owuld look very similar to how it looks on me. 🙂
If you are buying it, buy it by tomorrow because the prices are going to go up for these and some of the MAC products. Rush!! is the only word. 🙂
hello sweetie
m holidaying in jaipur maayke mein hoon …
i will be going on 14th means monday
i told hubby abt this as i read ur comment n even called MAC in juhu mumbai they also said they gonna increase in 2 – 3 days
lets see if he buys tomm …
aah m not sure i hope just crossing fingers
and one more thing rati what concealer would u suggest me from indian brand ???
i have THS tea tree concealer in # 2 and maybelline mineral
pls suggest a new one as i dont wear foundation only concealer n some moisturizer for me…
You know I have used only 3 concealers so far- colorbar, mac and estee lauder.If i have to close my eyes and just pick one, it would me MAC. I personally spend a lot of money for my base makeup- foundations and concealers because I feel if your base makeup is nothing else would look good on you.
Colorbar one is discontinued.
You may try the MAX Factor Panstick if you want: https://makeupandbeauty.com/maxfactor-pan-stik-foundation-review/
I use MAC Studio Finish but some people find it a little heavier for their under eyes. I never felt like that ever. I love to bits. : https://makeupandbeauty.com/mac-studio-finish-concealer-review/
If you want you may try MAC select cover up or MAC select moisture.
Yes the prices are increasing. 🙁 It was so expensive as it is. boo hoo!! Hope you get the products in old prices only.Good Luck! 🙂
btw how is the TBS concealer?
hello rati …
thanks honey for ur quick reply … sorry for not replying ur mail
me n hubby (he is working for CISCO and is into networking) was discussing abt that , he also wanna go through n then would give u complete idea abt HOW TO’s of that…
regarding TBS concealer … its pretty good but on drier side n who wants it to be drier for under eye area… so i use it for face n near nose n chin
i love maybelline
n i do have HARD candy concealer palette which have 6 colors but still not comfortable with that…
lets see will try MAC next week …
m complete MACoholic …
love their blushes , lipsticks , lipglass , paint pots , eyeshadows , brushes , pigments
ahh poor hubby …
thanks honey for listening i mean reading
Hi Rahmi,
I am sorry I had to remove the two links. Your comment was going in spam again and again. 🙁
I will wait for your mil. 🙂
I am turning into a macaholic but as of now I am a colorbaroholic. 😀
Love colorbar except their base makeup.
don’t try select cover up – it emphasises fine lines like crazy after 2 hours or so :pain:
.-= ki.´s last blog ..Wedding worries =-.
I liked cyndi a lot when I tried it 😀
.-= ki.´s last blog ..Wedding worries =-.
Yeah Cyndi is the colour that would just brighten up your face. And it’s such a muted version of red. Very pretty. 🙂
I am dying to try Cyndi..I guess I am gonna hit MAC counter pretty soon.. 🙂
Would love to see it on you. 🙂
ohh i expected the colours to be much more spectacular than this!
Oh I always knew they were lustre finish and it would look different on different people. 🙂
Cyndi!!!!! Hands down……… I want it!!!! I am surprised you didn’t get it!!!! It looks absolutely ravishing on you……..
oh!! Thank you Mrunmayee. Just trying to save some money this month. 🙂 I have gaga though. 🙂
wow !!! i liked Gaga… i love nudes nd pinks !!!

rashmi
Yay!! lemme mail you. ::)
Hey Rati…I think the Cyndi one complemented you greatly……geeee………about the pout…..I think no one can work up a sexy pout like you…………….. :-* :-*
Thank you Jomol. All credits to you for declaring me pouty. 😀
I gladly accept the compliment. :giggle: :giggle:
hi….
u all there are jst awesome….
i liked cyndi lip color but am not too sure if it will wrk me that is pale but fair indian skin tone…..plz suggest…. ?:-)
Shilpa,
If you have a fair skin tone both gaga and cyndi would work for you. 🙂
Best is go to the store and ask the makeup artist to give you a demo of both the lipsticks on you. You would get an instant answer there.
Just ask the makeup artist to sanitize the lipstick with alcohol before applying it on you. 🙂
You guys are luck to have got your hands on both the shades, my MAC store recieved stock of Cyndie Luper only, we din’t even get to see Lady Gaga… 🙁
But, I was told that MAC unsually makes its VIVA Glam collection permanent…so hopefully will get to get mine then… 🙂
You know here also the lipsticks were over within a few day. Viva Glam otherwise is a permanent collection. Not sure about Cyndi and Gaga!
Honestly i went crazy n bought 3 gaga’s lol but now m uber tanned and realized it was na nah …. it looks and makes me feel gorgeous occasionally but not my types pulling off verey day !!!
oh my!!! 😛
Yeah, it’s an occasional kind of colour. Atleast I can’t pull it off everyday. 🙂
