Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper for MAC Viva Glam

Back in November, we were on a self-imposed lock down the week before our wedding. (We really didn't want to risk being hungover or tired.) We did make one exception--to meet the new faces of MAC's Viva Glam Lipstick, Cyndi Lauper and Lady Gaga. While the event was a few months ago, we weren't allowed to discuss the details...until now.

We loved hearing Lady Gaga's stories of watching her mom get dressed and handling her curlers and her teenage trips to the MAC store on the Upper Westside. More than anything, we were impressed with how much both ladies truly believed in the mission of the MAC AIDS Fund, that helps raise money to help AIDS organizations working with underserved regions and populations.

Lady Gaga says of her MAC Viva Glam Lipstick:
My new Viva Mac lipstick colour is amazing. It's a blush pink, great for everyday. It's a little bit '80s, which is very me. It's for the everyday women - anyone can wear it and feel great about themselves and embody what Viva Glam is all about. I hope that women buy this lipstick, and honor themselves and honor the cause.

Cyndi Lauper says of her MAC Viva Glam Lipstick:
[It's] a really fabulous red...and it's called Cyndi. How cool is that?

Both lipsticks are available at MAC. Every cent of the selling price of VIVA GLAM Lipstick and Lipglass is donated to the M·A·C AIDS Fund to support men, women, and children living with HIV and AIDS.
