MAC Viva Glam Miley Cyrus




Hello Everybody!
As a massive Miley Cyrus fan I was so excited when they announced Miley was going to be the new face of Viva Glam 2015. She has always been a huge supporter of charities and recently with her Happy Hippy Foundation she has been helping LGBTQ youth & youth homelessness.Giving back has always been important to Miley. Her recent crusade to break down gender stereotypes as well as educate people about current issues makes Miley the perfect candidate to be the face of Viva Glam! Let's get into the reviews,shall we?

Viva Glam Miley Cyrus

Her first lipstick & lipgloss duo was HOT. And by that I mean, hot pink. The bright pink amplified lipstick has a slight blue undertone and a satin sheen finish. Personally I would have loved this lipstick more if it was matte, but in an interview Miley mentioned it was really important how the lipstick felt. As we all know, Mac matte lipsticks can be really drying. Because of the satin finish the lipstick is really smooth and comfortable to wear.

The lipglass that came out with the first lipstick was a hot pink with pink and blue sparkles/shimmer. This lipglass is PACKED with sparkle. Miley said she wanted it to be like a disco ball. Because of all the sparkle, this lipglass is something i've never seen before. Wearing this on it's own is really pretty. Miley said in an interview that she wanted something her younger fans could wear. Apparently when she was a kid she wasn't allowed to wear makeup, but her Mom would let her wear lipgloss. I love that she was thinking about them as separate products but that they go together so well. Wear them together for a big impact, bright, hot pink, sparkley lips. The lipglass was my favourite part of this first collection.

The 2nd lipglass and lipstick duo that came out was an orange duo. The lipstick is a bright orange with a semi matte finish. It reads as matte but has a creamy feeling and isn't drying which I love! The lipglass is also bright orange with shimmer. The hot pink lipglass has WAY more glitter than this one. Wear them together or wear them on their own, you're sure to make a bright, bold statement.

Final Thoughts:
My favourite lipglass was the first that came out, the pink glittery one. And my favourite lipstick was the second Viva Glam Miley2 (The orange one.)
Regardless, It's worth picking up this collection while it lasts-It's limited edition and 100% of the funds go towards the MAC Aids Fund.
Get glam while giving back! what could be better?!
Thanks Miley! Thanks Mac Aids Fund!
