MAC packaging that is suspicious...

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

Last week, I was in our stock room putting away a box of stock. I am stocking some Studio Fix Powder when I notice something suspicious. Instead of a clean little sticker, some of the brand new powders sent to us have the number printed on it in larger, uglier print.

I wanted to let people know that these are REAL because we got these directly from MAC, but I have to say that if I didn't get them right out of the MAC shipment, I would have thought they were fake. The print on the box itself is just so random!

Strange! Maybe they're getting lazy with the Quality Control? Or due to the financial crisis, they had so switch to a cheaper printing facility?

haha.. i don't know.

Thanks for the heads-up though!

hey bunny, we got them too. i know for sure that its nc35. i think there's another one, but i'm not for sure. there's no sticker and the font is a litte bit taller and skinnier.

hahahaha! thats funny, i was grabbing an nc35 for a customer today and had to do a double take at the box. its weird that it was only that shade, but yeah it looks funky.

we got those in too!
maybe they are slowly switching away from the stickers or something?
