Ok so I was walking around shopping and I pass a whole table full of MAC make-up and brushes along with a few other brands like Channel UD and others and I literally stopped and my jaw dropped lol they were so cheap I didn't know what to get lol I got a few items and some cologne and perfume.. Well I hope they are real lol.

Interesting...well if they were cheaper than regular mac products then they are most likely fake. The ingredients they put in faux name brand makeup is unknown and horrible for your skin, but if the brushes work then they're probably harmless.

That's true and that's why I wasn't sure about buying my NW20 foundation lol there were only 3 colors left all the rest sold.. I bought some eyeshadows I think it's pretty safe lol I did see the Bobby Brown bronzing brush for $10 sold at Macy's for about $54 I did t get it though maybe tomorrow lol I ran out of cash haha.

Sorry to bust your high but...they are in fact FAKE.

Must be Gabby! Too good to be true but its just eyeshadows I figured like I'm buying elf or Maybelline haha.

They're either fake or stolen. Either way, I don't think you should use them. If they're fake, even just eyeshadows, they can have harmful ingredients in them. I don't think it's like using e.l.f. or Maybelline because with inexpensive brands if you have an allergic reaction or something you can at least contact someone about your issue and get help. With bootleg makeup you have nothing to go off of. And if they're stolen, you could face some criminal charges off of it. That probably won't happen, but why risk it?

F F. Congrats on your bargain! please let us know how you like them. I live in Sacramento, CA and see knockoffs everywhere. I don't have 1000's to spend on make-up or purses so I'm all about saving that dollar! lol
Mar 29, 2013
