Fake MAC pigments are actually pretty impressive. I had the intention to purchase these on eBay already knowing that they are not genuine MAC pigments. Now I probably should have posted a video and blog about the differences before posting the swatches since I've been getting a lot of questions about how you can tell if they are fake. Don't worry I will get that information for you all very soon. I got these on eBay through a seller, 1776shop for $32.00 with free shipping. I did have to participate in the auction. I think the "buy it now" was in the $40-$50 range. I know the seller is not selling anything right now, but if you want to find these just search "Cosmetics Eyeshadow Pigment Color Powder." There may be a lot of people selling the pigments individually so you gotta look for the lot of 40. I've heard a lot about the fake MAC pressed shadows being crap, I am tempted to test them out to judge for myself. We will see if I think its worth it. But for now, I am impressed with these pigments and they work just as well as other pigments and as well as MAC pigments. Some are finely milled, some are a little chunky, some are shimmery and sparkly and matte. There is a large variety of finishes. There are a lot of bright colors and a good amount of neutrals. I think its definitely worth the purchase, I mean $32 for 40 pigments at 7.5 grams, That's .80¢ a jar. Can't beat the price. Below I just included pictures of some of the pigments, you can click below to watch the video of all the swatches. Thanks for watching and reading my blog.
