Is this lipglass and eyeshadow legit??

[pmoy004]

Hi all

This to me looks like all my other lipglasses, it doesn't have the bobble on the top like fakes do, it feels and smells right, but I'm not sure that I trust the source.

In terms of the eyeshadow, I am only showing a picture of the bottom - the rest totally checks out.

Any help appreciated! - sorry for the crappy photos

The lipglass looks counterfeit - the logo has the hallmarks of many of the counterfeits I've seen.

The shadow I can't really tell from just the label.

I will put better photos up, including the lipglass in question next to a lipglass I bought at a MAC store..

could you explain a bit more about the logo? Thanks would really appreciate it

Better pics would be awesome!

This thread has a picture that shows the difference in logos quite well. It's not necessarily the thickness of the font, but moreso the appearance and spacing of the gaps and the product name lettering. The pic above shows that the gaps are inconsistent with the normal MAC logo, which immediately sets off alarms for me.

These differences are extremely small and often hard to pick up - which is exactly on what the counterfeiters are hoping for!

The lipglass is fake. Magnetique is a very, very common fake, and the font is off. Mac doesn't have such a large gap in the M.
