Mac Viva Glam (747) Dupe?

Mac Viva Glam (747) Dupe?

Obsessed with the gorgeous cool-tone, deep red of MAC's "Viva Glam" colour! Right now, the "viva glam" collection is tragically absent this colour, despite its name. Any help in finding a match would be appreciated, especially at drugstore prices, but not necessarily.

ETA: Nyx's alabama and Maybelline's divine wine (both discontinued) were identified as dupes here: https://makeuptutorials.com/mac-lipstick-makeup-dupes/

Why is my friend on fire?

Sick as hell but neither of us can figure out why their character is on fire. It doesn't seem to be the layered armour (sakuratide masc) or their equipped armour (afi masc). Their pendant is currently the jello wiggly thing and their slinger is loaded with screamer pods. Help?

I got this wonderful Meline Luxe second hand for retail price! Her hair was a little frizzy when I got her, but was wonderfully responsive to a gentle shampoo, condition, and brush. I'm super pleased with how she came out!

With her, I've completed my Rainbow Vision Diva's trio, something I never thought I would be able to do given how rare and how expensive they can be. I hope to post photos of all three girls together sometime in the coming weeks when the weather is nice

EDIT: technique, given the title of the post felt weird to exclude it after a second thought. Luke warm water, lather and massage in dawn dish soap, separating chunks of hair from each other while keeping them 'whole'. Rinse out entirely.

Then took an individual chunk, ran a generous amount of conditioner along it, and brushed it out from tip to root with a rat-tooth comb. Once brushed, I re-curled the chunk with two fingers and pressed it into place against the skull. I did this for all the especially frizzy and matted sections, avoiding anything that didn't seem like it needed the work so as to not lose material/pull out hair unnecessarily.

Once I brushed everything that needed help, I sprayed the hair with a mixture of water and conditioner, and scrunched it gently, repeating until I was happy with the overall vibe. I shaped the front swoop with my fingers and positioned curls as I liked, then put her in her stand to dry, wearing a hair net. Drying took about 2 days. I used the kirkland/costco conditioner
