Shade Obsession: MAC Viva Glam Sia


I decided to put on my tube of MAC Viva Glam Sia one morning and straight out of the tube, this matte scarlet looks VERY much like a creamier Ruby Woo, although it's a regular Matte, not a Retro Matte. It's also just a hair warmer than Ruby Woo, which has a hint of cool undertones although I still consider mostly a true red. The undertone difference may not be noticeable to a lot of people.

The difference comes when you press your lips together and wear it out in the daytime. The warmth in the undertone comes out more in daylight, and you may - like me - suddenly notice all those tiny little flecks of gold hidden in the matte red formula.


The sparkles are not really noticeable to someone standing in front of you, unless they come really close and squint. But it does give the formula a tiny hint of luminosity, the way velvet sometimes catches the light at certain angles.


A bit of a fun surprise because I didn't look at any press copy or descriptions online. I just bought the tube when I saw it in-store.


For better comparison, here is Viva Glam Sia swatched next to two other MAC scarlets, as well as the new LANEIGE Two Tone Matte Bar in #6, whose two shades blend into a scarlet as well. The camera does pick up on some of the sparks but I almost wish they were a bit more visible on the lips. How cool would that be?

Still, that might make the lipstick slightly uncomfortable to wear. And as it is, Viva Glam Sia is sufficiently smooth for a matte, and goes on dense and opaque. Worthy of hoarding, if you've ever wished Ruby Woo was less dry, and Revlon Really Red was a bit more opaque.

  16. There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

My life savings were stolen by this scammer I met on a dating website while he seemed to be in trouble, and I assisted him numerous times since I was continually sending money through Bitcoin and bank transfers. As a result, I had to declare bankruptcy. I borrowed money to help him, but I later learned that he was a con artist. After a buddy of mine showed me an article about Rustik Cyber Hack Service and how they are capable of recovering any crypto coins Bitcoin, USDT, ETH, Dogecoin, and bank transfer funds. from any type of con artist, i reach out to Rustik Cyber Hack Service discuss my situation, and send all the information of the transfer payment I made to the scam.
