OK, so I’m enjoying an Amy’s Mexican Casserole bowl and viewing Gilmore girls last night when I kindasorta FREAKED THE EFF OUT. one of the main characters in the show, Lorelei Gilmore (the mother half of the Gilmore duo), was getting her best friend Sookie ready for a date, doing her hair, putting on her makeup — all of that good stuff a charm BFF does for her gal pals. Anywho, when she’s ready to apply Sookie’s lipstick, she calls out to her daughter Rory (the other half of the Gilmore Girls) downstairs to bring up “Viva Glam.” Ja! THE Viva Glam. She doesn’t say the word “MAC,” but when she holds the lipstick up to Sookie’s lips, you can clearly see the tube, and it’s certainly MAC.
Witty banter? unlimited cups of coffee? MAC makeup references? This just might be the best show ever.

I still had Viva Glam on my mind this morning when I was getting ready, so I took out my favorite version, Viva Glam V Lipglass, and paired it with a cool-toned smokey brown and peach eye using the new too faced Sugar & spice palette ($39, available now), and the new NARS virtual Domination Cheek Palette.

Also, just for fun, and to see how the eyes would look with a much more dramatic lip, I swapped out Viva Glam V with the new Viva Glam Rihanna 2 Lipstick and Lipglass…
Wow! I actually really like the bolder lip combo.

Incidentally, the first time I wore the Rihanna 2 lippies separately, I felt they looked a little too stark on me. then I tried them together and came around. now I’m lovin’ that deep, sparkling pinkish mauve.
As for my cheeks, I’m wearing the new NARS virtual Domination Cheek palette ($65, from the new holiday collection). It comes with three blushes (Sex Fantasy, Deep Throat and final Cut), a highlighter (Miss liberty) and a bronzer (good ol’ Laguna), available exclusively at Sephora starting November 1.
