The bristles will fall out quicker than legit ones. <br />It doesn't necesarily mean yours will be fakes though :) I have a set and the bristles do fall out a bit but I've been told xmas sets aren't the same quality as regular stock. Mine are from the store so I know they're real, just kinda crappy on the shedding part :DKittenMittenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10146910535958325916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222985881796163230.post-49288112783804505522010-01-22T20:12:10.233-06:002010-01-22T20:12:10.233-06:00Uh-oh.

HOWEVER! I am a peacock freak so I did purchase a MAC glitter eyeliner in Peacocky (the only MAC purchase I have ever made) on eBay and it is the real deal. But I think that type of product is harder to fake than their loose pigments. <br />Still sucks that there are folks out there trying to cheat people like this. :-/<br /><br />There is this online store with cheap REAL MAC samples:<br /><br />http://www.thebodyneeds2.com/default.aspBLIXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984041577326333743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222985881796163230.post-91496530210353101332010-01-22T08:33:33.229-06:002010-01-22T08:33:33.229-06:00Exactly!

I had to ran...Exactly! Both of you are sooo right! <br />I had to rant. <br /> I tried to get Your Ladyship last year and it was a fake (too chunky frosty not enough sparkle) and the guy tried telling me different continents will make it different. Uhhhh hello buddy, it should all be coming out of the same place. Of course after he loaded off all his fakes he is no longer a registered user at 99.1%. All that means is he has a new name now...<br /><br />And then I was sent 2 eyeshadows from a family member that were fake. I don't know if she knew they were or not, but if she did, is she trying to make me blind? :DKittenMittenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10146910535958325916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222985881796163230.post-29118795221285274272010-01-22T07:50:47.858-06:002010-01-22T07:50:47.858-06:00Sadly ebay is one of the only places that I'm ...Sadly ebay is one of the only places that I'm be able to find MAC at a decent price (pfft $32AUD for one eyeshadow? nothanks), but I know so much more about fakes and sellers now than I did a year ago when I started getting heavily into makeup. <br /><br />Now I look at the fake listings and wonder how anybody could fall for it. <br /><br />But yeah, if anybody is desperate for MAC, then rock-the-catwalk.com and allcosmeticswholesale.com are really the most reliable routes. Though Silk Naturals makes awesome MAC dupes for under $5 and theyre much better for you, so why bother :)SilhouetteScreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13958299527498383584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222985881796163230.post-72001135917527357682010-01-22T07:31:14.983-06:002010-01-22T07:31:14.983-06:00great post!

MMU is the best! So many creative people putting their best to bring out great colors, makeup counters are a thing of the past, definitely!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12534444203053047188noreply@blogger.com
