If you guys know me, you know I’m a huge Miley fan. So, when I heard that MAC was partnering with Miley for Viva Glam, I was so excited! I couldn’t wait to find out what color she picked, see the advertisement, and fast forward to now and it’s finally out! Check out my video to see my first impressions & live swatches!:
As you can see, I think MAC and Miley did a great job on this lipstick and lipglass. There’s really something for everyone!
The MAC Viva Glam Miley Cyrus Lipstick ($16) and Lipglass ($15) line features a popping hot pink hue in a buildable lipstick and disco-ball inspired lip gloss. I like how the lipstick and lipgloss aren’t completely the same, so no matter what your beauty taste is, you can find something with this duo.
Here’s what the lipstick & lipglass look like on my sassy face. Great combo, don’t you think?
Check out all that glitter! The glitter specks are both a cool toned silver and pink. Miley herself said it was inspired by a disco ball! I also like that the gloss doesn’t mess up the appearance of the lipstick- it doesn’t get streaky or anything!
The lipstick by itself, is a creamy hot pink that feels very natural. Miley said she didn’t want it to feel like a lot of lipstick, and even enlisted her little sister Noah to try it out. And, bonus: the lipstick wears amazingly because it stains!
The lipglass has a sheer pink color and is packed with that glitter. I was happy that the glitter didn’t feel gritty at all, but as usual, MAC lipglasses are pretty sticky. But, as a person who doesn’t normally love lipgloss, I didn’t think it was too sticky. This gloss is great for a pre-teen and above to wear if they can’t wear a ton of makeup, but it still spices up your look!
If you aren’t familiar, MAC’s Viva Glam line donates 100% of the proceeds to the MAC AIDS Fund which helps out those affected by AIDS. So, whether you’re a fan of Miley or not, definitely pick up one or both of these lippies, rock a bold lip, and support a great cause!

I ADORE the combo of the lipstick & gloss, but think I’m only going to pick up the lipstick since that’s all I practically wear. This might be one of my favorite MAC Viva Glam collabs ever!

Yeah, I’m not much of a gloss person myself. But, if it’s Miley I’m buying it! Yeah it’s a great color- a lot of the recent ones I’m remembering have had a lot of unwearable colors or simply just not my style!
