Are my eBay purchases authentic?

[Beauty11111]

I recently purchased some Pro items from eBay but I'm very new to M.A.C cosmetics and clueless to recognise a fake. I've taken lots of photographs and if anyone could help me authenticate them it would be very appreciated! Thank you. White gold pigment:

It really looks real to me especially the pigment since it has the warning in the packaging.

I'm afraid you can't go by that - loads of the fakes have that too. It takes them very little effort to copy a leaflet and put it in to help fool people into thinking it's authentic.

Thank you for all your comments .

I am going to be the voice of descent on the pigment and say I am suspicious. The printing on the jar seems very dark (bold) and the position of the MAC on the front looks too low.

One thing I am wondering about though...and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but the batch code...A78. So this was supposed to have been the first run manufactured in July 2008. Past sometime in 2006 I thought all pigments were made in the USA (jar indicates Canada) and the text on the back of the jar had been reformatted so that it was aligned on the left?

Thank you for the help. I took the pigment to MAC yesterday and they confirmed, and were sure that it is authentic .
