MAC Lipglass in Nicki Minaj Viva Glam 2, €17.50

Are you one of Nicki Minaj’s “Barbs”? Then you probably already know that #lavenderisthenewpink. MAC Viva Glam campaign continues this season with Ms Minaj as the “face”. This gloss is a very wearable shade of lavender, more pink than blue. Apply concealer to the lips first if you want a more “plastic” purple. As with all Viva Glam products, the full price, less VAT, goes towards helping people affected by HIV and AIDS.
