Viva Glam Rihanna II Lipstick and Lipglass - Rihanna strikes again! Run (and we mean literally) to your nearest MAC store on September 11 to pick up Rih's latest Viva Glam lippies. The frosted mauve shade is gorg and these babies sell out quick, so get on it. Plus, 100 percent of the proceeds go toward the MAC AIDS Fund, so this is one beauty buy you can feel good about. And if you're feeling extra good, pick up Rihanna's first men's fragrance, Rogue, which also debuts this month, for your special guy. (Photo: Courtesy of MAC Cosmetics)
