My take on the Viva Glam I lip glass:

This is my first ever lipglass from MAC which is a part of the permanent line. Though I am MAC lipstick lover still the beauty of this shade and the texture of the lipglass made me grab this 1.

Shade: MAC describes it as ‘Brownish blue red’. Quite true to the description, I would better call this shade a terracotta red. A beautiful matte color that would look great on every skin tone. Wear it in full effect or apply it lightly for a more toned down look so the color can be worn anytime.

Texture: The lip glass has a thick, slightly sticky texture with a faint smell. The sticky nature can be related to the good staying power but still the lipglass feel very light on the lips. The lip glass is highly pigmented and a single swipe adds perfect color to your lips. The texture is moisturizing on my dry (super dry) lips that I love. The color fades away evenly and does not settle in fine lines. I have not seen any bleeding of the color while applying. The shade transfers though initially.

Longevity: The lip glass gives an amazing staying power of 4 hours and survives a meal to quite an extent if applied in full effect. I find the staying power quite comparable to many of my lipsticks so I am quite impressed in this regard.

Packaging: The lipglass come in a round transparent plastic pack with a matte black cap. The doe shaped foam applicator is great and picks up enough color to apply evenly.
