MAC Viva Glam Ariana Grande 2 Lipglass & Lipstick

MAC Viva Glam Ariana Grande 2 Lipglass

MAC Viva Glam Ariana Grande 2 Lipglass ($16.00 for 0.17 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium-dark rosy mauve with subtle, warm undertones and flecks of gold and pink shimmer. It had semi-opaque color coverage that went on fairly evenly but did settle into lip lines to a noticeable degree. The texture was light-medium in weight, tacky, but comfortable and lasted for four and a half hours on me. NARS Bound (P, $26.00) is less shimmery, darker (90% similar). MAC It's a Strike (LE, $20.00) is warmer (85% similar). Anastasia Vintage (P) is warmer (85% similar). MAC Anything But Demure (LE, $20.00) is darker, warmer (80% similar).

MAC Viva Glam Ariana Grande 2 Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a bold, bright, medium-dark magenta-purple with pink undertones and a satin finish. It had very nearly opaque color coverage that applied evenly and smoothly. The texture was lightly creamy, didn’t tug the lips when applied, and sat fairly well on lips. This shade lasted for six hours, was slightly drying over time, and after four hours of wear, some of the color did pull into lip lines.

The gloss is subdued to the point where it didn’t really seem to change the color of the lipstick; it added glossiness and caused the lipstick to appear somewhat streaky.
