Fake and Real Mac Cosmetics

 

There are many people who sell fake MAC out there, and everyone thinks that fake MAC means that the quality is also bad.  I am not trying to promote "fake" MAC, but I actually want to tell you the difference between "fake" MAC and "Real" MAC.  Basically, all eyeshadows and pigments are made from 100% mica powder, and so is the "fake" MAC as well as the "Real".  But it is the packaging and the duplication of it that is causing the problem for everyone.  Though, "fake" MAC quality is just as good as the real, but some products only.

The pictures posted above are a sample of "fake" MAC apart from "Real" MAC.  The pictures above is the difference between the "studio fix powder plus foundation".  I have written which one is fake and which is real.  If you look above, you can see the "fake" one looks exactly identical to the real, but there are minor things you can look for so that you don't get scammed.
