Hey Guys first Post please pass on any feedback you may have :)
I understand we all want a bargain and in Australia MAC is very expensive! we pay $33 per eyeshadow from counters.
I'm hoping this review will be helpful to some and help you all save money and get a fair, legitamate product.
I think it is a good idea for a new MAC eyeshadow buyer to purchase their first eyeshadow from the counter, this way you have a definate authentic to compare with. I also keep all my MAC boxes (a whole cupboard full) so that if I am every wary of a product i have plenty of legitimate packaging to compare!
FAKE VERSUS AUTHENTIC
The Box
*The box will have a sticker on the top lip with the name (the real have name only NO NUMBERS!!)
*The front will say EYE SHADOW FARD A' PAUPIERES above the round cut out and NET WT./POIDS NET 1.5G/.05 US OZ E on the bottom front. WATCH FOR CORRECT SPELLING
*There will be a barcode on the bottom with a serial number below and above will have a 3 digit code i.e - A99
*The back of the box will have text on the bottom LHS
The eyeshadow
*The box will be matte not shiny! with MAC written on it the dots between ma and ac will be small!
*Inside the eyeshadow will sit in from the lid (the fakes sometimes are raised)
-*The clasp will be on the base (fakes are commonly on the lid)
*The lid will be flush, not raised!
*the sticker on the base will contain the name and the finish i.e - veluxe pearl, frost, matte etc, all this will be in white
*The same 3 digit number (i.e A99 as mentioned) will be in black on the back
Please feel free to send me any photos or questions you may have and I would be happy to assist.
