On the uk ebay site I always try to report these listings I might give up because they are still being sold.

 

[Navessa]

i was just suspicious (thank goodness) but someone else wouldn't know.

Mac's palettes don't come with a mirror or cheap brushes. The only one's with a mirror or a very small brush are some smaller palettes (like the one's from last years holiday sets) they only had 6 shadows though & were a small square, not circles. The one that this is trying to copy is a Mac palette that holds 15 shadows, not 12. Also, the fact that is give a number 005, instead of actual shadow names is a dead giveaway, so is the box. Mac doesn't have any "cream" shadow palettes either. So many things are wrong with this

I have never seen mac eyeshadow in cream form in a palette, so yes I think it is a fake!

i don't know how people can't see that it's fake... there's another auction going to $65 so far and 30 something people have bid on it already... this palette isn't subtly fake either... people really should research what they're buying on ebay.

for someone who doesn't have a ton of mac or know alot about it, i can see how you wouldn't know that's fake....but that thing is fake in a bad way.
