This year, MAC’s Glam It Up : Viva Glam Holiday Kit features a clasp-top pouch of glossy black leopard print vinyl over red satin, Nicki Minaj’s satin finish lipstick and Ricky Martin’s colourless Lip Conditioner. Perhaps a coloured Lip Conditioner would have been more attractive?
The Nicki Minaj lipstick wasn’t as pink on my lips as I thought it’d be. It’s creamy and feels a bit drying which is when the Lip Conditioner comes in handy. It’s less blue-pink and warmer than Pink Nouveau, one of MAC’s best-selling pink lipsticks. Have a look at the images below for comparison.
If you are applying the Lip Conditioner before lipstick, press a piece of tissue against your lips after applying Lip Conditioner otherwise your lipstick may appear too glossy (MAC MUA Perry’s tip!).
MAC Viva Glam Holiday Kit retails at RM150. All proceeds go towards the MAC AIDS Fund.

I used to hope to get myself MAC Viva Glam Lip glass by Fergie. But too bad…I was a student without income back then and I just had to give it a miss…
I have a very memorable moment with MAC blacktrack fluidline. It saved me from embarassment at a function I was at. I was in a rush and used a drugstore brand eye pencil to line my eyes….to my horror upon reaching my function’s destination…my eyes looked like panda! I had to rush to the washroom and rub off my whole eye makeup with water! I then reapplied my makeup using only MAC blacktrack fluidline (which I absentmindedly left in my car boot the day before) to make a cateye look. It stayed on the whole night till 12am and many of my friends told me that my eye makeup was really nice! I was really really glad that MAC blacktrack fluidline saved me from what could have been a makeup tragedy!
Here are my top 5 favourite MAC brushes:
1. Brush No. 226
(for applying and blending powder eye shadow)
2. Brush No. 217
(for applying and blending powder eye shadow)
3. Brush No. 131
(for applying and blending liquid foundation)
4. Brush No. 210
(for precise application of eye liner, e.g. Mac’s Fluidline range)
5. Brush No. 286
(A recent addition to MAC’s brush family but also great for finely applying and blending eye shadows, also can be used for applying eye shadow in the crease of the eye!)
Can’t do without them!!
I always have a bad experience with MAC sales assistant. Their products are great but I try my best not to enter the store unless I really need something due to the service given. Wish they can really improve on the customer service. Other than that, MAC is great! Thank you for the giveaway! 🙂
I absolutely love MAC products especially the eye shadow. The colours are gorgeous and it is almost impossible to name just one shade as a fave!
OMG! Thanks so much!
