Has anyone ever seen or bought one of these before?
It's new on the macpro site for $180 (with only a 10% discount).
Just wondering how wonderful or not so wonderful it is?

What's the description? I emailed MAC a while back asking them to put together a book with the face chart collections from years past, all I got was a thank you email and heard nothing else from it.

I also said maybe they should make it a hardcover book with the donations going towards the AIDS foundation, kinda like the Viva Glam items.

It's an industry book, not produced by MAC. It is focused on fashion as a whole, including makeup, photography, hair, clothing, etc. It has a lot of advertising and contact information for those working in the fashion world. It probably wouldn't be very useful for the average consumer.

Well I am asking as someone who works in the industry, seeing as its advertised on the pro website I figured it wouldnt be of interest to the average consumer - was more curious if anyone had one that could tell me if there was a lot of editorial photographs that would be good inspiration. i'm always on the look out for more things to add to my look book for clients to look through.

Try switching the country chooser to US if that's an option on the MAC pro site (I know this happens sometimes with the regular site).
