MAC Viva Glam VI Lipstick $14.50
One of my all-time favorite lipsticks is MAC’s Viva Glam VI, a super neutral, warmed-up plum. With my fair complexion, it looks just like the lip color I should have been born with, and it goes well with absolutely everything. The newest addition to the Viva Glam empire is the collection inspired by Lady Gaga. The second Viva Glam collection for the eccentric artist incorporates both a lipstick and a lipglass in a very pale, limited-edition neutral. I recently discovered that by layering Gaga’s newest lipglass color over my Viva Glam VI lipstick, I was able to create the absolutely perfect sexy neutral! Adding MAC’s “dervish” lip pencil kept this neutral color-combo from washing out my already fair complexion. If you have a slightly darker complexion, or even a little bit left of a summer tan, this combo will be the perfect color even without a lip pencil. As always, all of the proceeds from the Viva Glam collection go to the MAC AIDS fund to help support people living with HIV/AIDS.
