I've done that before.

They will accept any condition as long as it's MAC and an acceptable package. Full, empty, dirty, melted, smashed, etc. In general, it makes sense to hold onto any MAC empty packaging (except boxes and bags) and bring them in to see if they count. A few things have been questionable in the past, like Wipes containers, but many places will even take those because they're primary packaging!

Viva Glam items are not accepted for Back-to-Mac.

VG are, you just can't get a VG lippie for your empties.

[Star]

True, that's what I meant, ie: you cannot turn them in for freebies.

yes you can. you can not GET a vg lipstick for free. -because all the proceeds go to the charity... and if they are giving them away for free, thats money that didnt go to the charity.

ive given wipes containers, melted e/s pots, everything. they'll take it all! (except for what was noted above, of course!)

[Star]

ok, thanks, I had it backwards evidently

[Oonie]

How many lipsticks have you gotten using B2M?

Just off the top of my head I would say between 10-15.

[Hikaru-chan]

2 Pink Aperitif and Midimauve.

[foreveratorifan]

mmmm almost all of mine!

I would say about 10-12 of them!

[Star]

Two from the "Textures" collection, but I have enough to get a third one now.

[melozburngr]

[MacLover]

I've gotten 2....Dubonnet and Plumful

[cinnamongurlee]

not too many...i save my empties for when i am broke and need a pick me up, but i have accumulated this HUGE collection of empties...just in case. here are some of the ones i have gotten over the last few years:

faux, myth, syrup, capricious, hot tahiti, charismatic, plumful, taupe...that is all i can think of off the top of my head

I just got Jest and Eden Rocks.

[Oonie]

I went to my MAC counter today to buy a CCB and turn in some containers for l/s.

I picked out Fucshia Perfect and Hush CCB and Jest and Eden Rock for the B2M l/s, they were out of Coconutty.

Well I get home like a kid with new toys and look in my bag and what do I see?


The (2) l/s BUT Fantastic Plastic and Luna CCB!

I called the store and they do have them in stock. They are somewhat similar but not that close in color. I am guessing that's how the mistake was made. I have the receipt, it's untouched and I can exchange it at another MAC counter near my office. I called and they have it. It's just the inconvience of it all and not being able to play with my new toys.

I should have checked before I left the counter but I have never had this happen to me before.

Also question. I know the Viva Glam l/s cannot be used for the B2M but does that include Glam too? When I asked her did she have it she said what's the number after it. I thought she meant the batch number so that is what I gave her. *shrugs* ANd then she said I would have to pay for it and it wasn't part of the B2M.

I'll see what they say at the other counter tomorrow.

That has happened to me twice in the last month. The first time was for a concealer when the MA insisted he knew better what shade I wanted. I asked for the shade I'd been using for years and he insisted I use another (totally wrong for me). I asked for my original, but lo and behold, when I got home the concealer was in the shade he insisted on. I went back the next day and exchanged it.

Just last week I went in for Headliner lipglass and ended up with Heartthrob in the bag when I got home. Super frustrating.

ALL empty containers can be returned for the Back to MAC program.

but you cannot get any Viva Glam lipsticks OR VG5 lipglass as part of the program - they MUST be bought!

does that help???

Thanks. That's what I thought too. I was just trying to get Glam not any of the Viva Glams. I think she must be new.

I went to the other counter I frequent and got the CCBs that I wanted. But the high is gone. Buying make-up is like a high for me I guess. I was not as excited.
