The Duchess, Stacy Ann Ferguson ala Fergie has been spending the last months promoting herself as the new spokesperson for Viva Glam VI. And now the latest shade is available in stores. Over $100 million has been raised by M.A.C. Cosmetics for their AIDS program.
“I’ve been a fan of the campaign since the early days, and I remembered when RuPaul and Mary J. Blige did it,” Fergie says. “They pick controversial people who aren’t afraid to speak their mind, and that’s definitely me. I’m very proud to be a part of it.”
Fergie is an “it girl” because she is such a radical free spirit. The singer catapulted her solo success beyond Black Eyed Peas, is engaged to hottie Josh Duhamel, and is dabbling in some acting. Thumbs up are given to her because she’s using that success to promote M.A.C. Cosmetics virtuous cause.
She’s been pretty candid about her dodgy sexual and narcotic past, and so it only makes sense this is her way of moving forward from that in a positive way.
P.S. Fergie even remixed her hit song Glamourous into Viva Glamourous. You can download it off the M.A.C. website.
The It Lists was going to share Fafi, the latest line of MAC Cosmetics because it’s one of my fav bday presents (thanks Irena!)… but then our friends at Couture in the City did such a good review AND prize give away that I figured it best just to give my DOUBLE stamp of approval and share their post:
MAC Cosmetics wants to introduce you to a few of their new friends…Monoka, Ermine and Eriko are the three muses behind the M.A.C. Fafi line. Bursting with color, life and edgy energy, these grafitti queens are the inspiration for this colorful new line. M.A.C. Fafi’s packaging is emblazoned with images from the amazing artist Fafi.

Enter Madewell. J. Crew’s foray into a more youthful demographic has been a huge success
The Soho space’s two huge stories are filled with sunny pop music and 20-something shoppers. The clothing is younger, brighter, trendier and cheaper than J. Crew’s.
Style tip? The high waistline is extra flattering on longwaisted women. Come April, you can pair it with a colorful spring sundress for an feminine urban look.
$108 (approx) at Topshop.
I’m addicted to all mineral makeup. Liquid foundation is a thing of the past in my bathroom, and now the creme de la creme finish before I leave the house is a final dusting from M.A.C. Mineralize Skinfinish.
Mineralize Skinfinish is one of the treats I picked up at BC Fashion Week. It’s a lux velvet-soft powder with high-frost metallic finish that adds buffed-up highlights to cheeks and brows, or an overall ultra-deluxe polish to the face. Highly reflective it gives fantastic depth.
Important! Don’t get turned off by how shimmery it looks - try it first. Friends are always super, super surprised when I show them the metallic product, but then they see it on me and there’s no glitter.
It’s best to go slightly darker than your skin tone - so the one that’s giving me a bit of color despite summer being long gone is M.A.C.’s Global Glow. It’s sold out online, but a bunch of my gals have still been able to get their brushes on these compacts.
Also grab the newest, Limited Edition Alexander McQueen - Mineralize Skinfinish in NEW VEGAS! Backstage at Alexander McQueen Fall ‘07, looks veered colorfully to the dark side. Celebrating the designer’s historic inspiration: Haunting definition and subtle shaping of this collection was created by Mineralize Skinfinish. MAC and McQueen are two of the coolest fashion brands around, so a collaboration is obviously not to be missed.
I’ve been waiting!! To share more than just rumor that MAC Cosmetics was launching a Barbie Collection so that it didn’t disappoint (like it did with launching only one Playboy lipstick - I think it was called Bunny).
Tada! Here it is today…and it looks fun, very pink, but very fun. Face, eyes, lips, nails, and the M.A.C. Barbie Collection wouldn’t be complete without a special edition MAC Barbie doll. Now you too can look like an adult Barbie.
All this pink makeup will actually look great with this spring’s predicted hot color - yellow.
Oh! and the little promo video is a fun walk thru memory lane with Barbie. Click here and when it loads it’s on the far right corner.
M·A·C Cosmetic’s last few Viva Glam lipsticks weren’t as unique as previous versions. This year’s Viva Glam is a definite "it"!
VIVA GLAM VI Lipstick debuts this month as a warm terracotta-plum with pearl finish.
There’s also a VIVA GLAM VI Lipglass, that can be paired or worn separate from it’s namesake lipstick. The beauty of the Viva Glam line is it’s universal appeal (almost anyone can wear these shades), but also that all of it’s profits go to fight HIV/ AIDS.
This year only gets better! Viva Glam VI has four spokespeople: Debbie Harry, Dita Von Teese (love her!!), Eve, and Lisa Marie Presley. Could there be a more eclectic combo? How’d you like to talk lipstick and politics over cocktails with this quad? Maybe if they hosted The View we’d actually tune in. Images [source]
