Hey, I've been browsing through Ebay again (anything to avoid doing coursework!) and found these. Now, I'm not fantastic at spotting good fakes, but these are rubbish fakes.

The 'gold' pigment appears to be from a batch made next year, while the 'bright pink' with a batch number of '0', appears to never have been made.

What do you girls think?

If you check her feedback, she (carolb2562) bought or transfer the MAC items from a no longer registered user, rtfm62, and said she bought them directly from MAC.

Some are authentic but the ones listed below are not so authentic-looking?

All Girl
Old Gold
Pinked Mauve and Lovely Lily
Softwash Grey
Azreal Blue, Blue and Blue Storm
Blue Brown, Goldenaire and Melon
Teal and Nightlight
Golders Green, Teal and Nightlight
Goldenaire, Melon and Pink Bronze
Golden Lemon

I am no expert and am still learning about fake MAC Pigments and their packaging! Please advice!

LOL, I let the lady who won the fake eyeshadow lot know that they were fakes, and she hasn't paid for them. So at least she doesn't have to waste her time trying to get her money back.

Unfortunately, there's still a few of the eyeshadow fakes floating around ebay:

and so on..............................

I dealt with rtfm62 and while she wasn't brilliant, what she sent me was genuine........ as for these pigments:

The all girl, I simply wouldn't touch because the sticker looks like it is peeling at the edges (I work on the principle that if it looks a tiny bit dodgy, I don't touch it)

The old gold does look fake, I would say the printing is too big.

The melon, again, the printing of the label looks too big to me, it's nothing like this on my genuine melon.

Night light looks ok to me?
