When I purchased a couple of goodies from MAC back in May, I was asked several times to make sure that I reviewed them. I do not know where the past 2 months have gone, but here is one of the promised lipstick swatches and reviews that was requested – a review of MAC Viva Glam Miley.
Viva Glam for those who don’t know is a line of lipsticks from MAC which donates all of it’s profits to the MAC Aids fund. They have a small permanent range of shades and one or two limited edition shades which run for a year before being replaced. My favourite lipstick ever is Viva Glam Cyndi which sadly was one of their yearly ones, but they have some really great shades in this line. And if you don’t like them, you’re basically donating to charity and getting a free lipstick for doing so – so feeling too bad about not liking it isn’t really a possibility (at least that’s how I justify it). But despite that joke, there really are some great shades in the line.
This year’s limited edition shade is Viva Glam Miley, unsurprisingly with the only Miley in the world – Miley Cyrus. The shade is a gorgeous bright cream fuschia pink in the amplified formula. Whilst I have a hundred (well not quite but a lot) of bright pink lipsticks – this one just looks different to the rest, and I can’t really put my finger down to why.
MAC Viva Glam Miley is creamy in formulation and feels quite moisturising on the lips and the finish has a glossy sheen without drying completely matte, but it does lock into place and lasts well without the need to reapply frequently, but isn’t as long lasting as a matte.
Have you tried Miley’s creation? What are your favourites from the Viva Glam line?

I really need to get the Viva Glam V which everyone raves about.
Have you done a post on the Viva Glam Cyndi? It’s the one I really wish I had bought!
I have v, don’t ever where it though I need to revisit it! No never although I have a dupe for it I have discovered going up this week – feel bad doing posts about things which are discontinued/le! I am planning on doing a mac lipstick collection post so if I do it will be on there 🙂
PLEASE POST THE CYNDI DUPE! I implore you!!!
I have a dupe that I found online but I don’t have the original so I can’t tell if it’s 100% spot on. The dupe I have is Wet n Wild Natural Blend Lip Shimmer in #106 Spice:

We can’t get wet n wild here, and the one I have found is from freedom (although they do international shipping) it’s good closest I’ve found yet!
Oh I just reread what you wrote – you’re posting it this week – YAY! 😀 😀 😀 ::giddy::
