    are there fake le palettes?

    are le palettes (for example the royal assets palettes, or the novel twist palettes, etc) faked? i know that there are lots of fake palettes, but you take one look and know that mac never put it out. so are these le palettes faked like the single shadows and pigments are?

    is color a definite answer to identifying a fake?

    i've read the guide on identifying fake mac pigments tons of times and it shows swatches of fakes against the real thing, but what i want to know is, if you swatch a real vs a suspected fake and they match, is that what definitely determines that the pigment is real and not fake?
