HELP! Are my pigments FAKE??

[pmoy004]

Hi there

I recently purchased these 6 pigments online - everything else I have bought from this source has been authentic, and I jsut want to make sure that these are too - I would REALLY APPRECIATE any help in establishing if these are the real deal. (They came with a pamphlet inside which I haven't photographed)

thanks so much guys!!

xoxo

Is it possible to clearer pictures of the fronts of the jars please? It's hard to see the detail...

I've taken some more...I think this is the best I can do with my crappy camera!

I'm afraid I think they're fake. I was suspicious when I saw the bottom of the jars, but when I saw the print on the back of the jar I am even more convinced.

The lack of a space after the : and the fact that it looks like a comma in the weight rather than a dot worry me

 

[marusia]

I agree. I'm calling fake. There should be a full stop before the weight, not a comma. Also, the jars have shaved edges on the lids=not good!

That comma on the back of the jar is telling it's a fake for sure.

Also the batch code on Smoke Signals suggests it's made in 2009, however, that is a LE pigment from 2007 I believe (?), so it was not made anymore in 2009. Please somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Pigments coming with a pamphlet inside has nothing to do with them being fake or real. MAC does have a pamplet that they include with their pigments/glitters. Not all of them have it but some do.
