Lady Gaga (my fav.) and Cyndi Lauper are the two new cover girls for M-A-C Cosmetics. They are the faces of the new Viva Glam VII Campaign which benefits those living with HIV/AIDS. What's cool about this program is that 100%, yes 100% of the proceeds go to the M-A-C Aids Fund.
Review: In the spirit of giving and in the name of Lady Gaga, I had to buy this super sweet lipstick. It even comes with her signature on it. This color is like a barbie/rosy pink and looks so nice with M-A-C Plushglass, " Ample Pink". Cyndi's signature lipstick is more of a Wine/Berry color and I'm sure it looks great on everyone. So, head down to your local Nordy's or M-A-C pro stores and help support those living with this horrible disease.
Rating: 5/5 It'll make your soul feel good that you contributed to a great cause!
P.S. If you know Lady Gaga, you shouldn't be surprised that she is the new face of this campaign!
For those of you who know me, you'll admit that if you could call the color of my complexion something, it would be PORCELAIN. I have very fair skin with undertones and sometimes, I want to look like I have a bit of color without it looking fake.
Product: Clarins Delicious Self Tanning Cream - It's a lightly scented self tanning cream with pure cocoa extracts.
Review: I walked into Sephora and asked one of the associates for the best product in the store. I was looking for an even application, didn't want to risk looking splotchy or orange and didn't want to smell like Sunscreen lotion....it's a big giveaway of a sunless tanning product! I initially bought this for the Vegas trip I went on in January and was hoping for a product that I could use randomly to give me that summer glow I've always wanted. I put it on the morning of and noticed that the application wasn't streaky whatsoever. In fact, I beleive the associate told me that because it has caramel in it (or something of that nature) it will show you where you have left off and won't set in your skin until after a few minutes. She also told me that when applying this with your hands, it's best to do one arm or leg, wash your hands and then apply the other. This will prevent that orange residue.
Rating: I'll give it 4/5. I agree in that it gave me a nice glow, but I could still smell that fake/sunless tanning product smell! The application itself was easy and I will recommend not putting your clothes on or taking a shower for at least a half hour. I put my white tank top on and the insides were lightly stained.
