RICKY & NICKI FOR M·A·C VIVA GLAM
No, I didn’t bite. MAC sent out a special email to their subscribers for the opportunity to buy Viva Glam Nicki lipstick early by providing us with a code yesterday. What I really want is MAC Cosmetics to bring back Viva Glam Cyndi and if they do that I’ll buy a few more of those for sure. *chanting* BRING BACK CYNDI! BRING BACK CYNDY DAMNIT!
My reasons for not ordering this lipstick are simple. 1. I wasn’t happy with Pink Friday and I should have known better because I’m an NC50 in MAC Studio Fix Fluid and both lipsticks appear to be somewhat similar. Why is she bringing up Pink Friday? Last time I checked this was my blog. What! 2. There is no way I can rock Pink Friday w/o a lip liner and serious blending (I thought it would be simple to make work to still make it look like it’s original color) and I don’t want to have to do that with any lipstick, not just with Viva Glam Nicki. Pink Friday was definitely not worth it for me in the end. 3. I saw a couple of bad swatches online for Viva Glam Nicki and it looked like I would have to put in the same work I have to put into Pink Friday to make it wearable for me. Really I am over bright Barbie pink lipsticks. They describe Viva Glam Nicki as a pinky, coral.
Look, until I can get a swatch from Temptalia then I won’t be reconsidering. She should have at least had it to show us MAC…early. But whatever.
Side note…Viva Glam Gaga II is awesome MAC!

Chanel Le Vernis – June
And I’ll be getting this very soon because, well, I was born in June. Doy! $26 + tax at Chanel.com or any Chanel counter or location. June is a part of the Knightsbridge Collection (Spring 2012) which is limited edition. April and May are also available colors.

Chanel Lucky Stripes Hightlight Bronzer Powder
Isn’t this just BEAUTIFUL? If you want it it’s going to cost you $92 bucks + tax at the Chanel Las Vegas Boutique at the Bellagio (my favorite place to rest in Vegas which re-opened the Chanel boutique there – woot!).
This pretty looking powder compact is a bronzer and highligther and by the looks of it would look fabulous on me, but I’ll never know it for sure. 
I also wanted the Soho powder ($60) I never got for the opening of the Chanel Boutique in Soho some time back…oh well.
From the Chanel Viva Las Vegas! Collection!
This is what the rest of the collection looks like. Two lip products and a nail polish…
