      I've been using MAC studio fix since I was 10 years old cause it was the best for dancing on stage. It was sweatproof and comfortable to wear without feeling too heavy. AND it's super inclusive. MAC has always offered a big range of foundations for all skin types/colours.

    Thank you for saying this. MAC has not died. The difference now is that there are so many more brands to choose from, and with the rise of social media influencers gluttonous overconsumption of cosmetics, by influencers and the people they influence, MAC and other reputable, solid brands have been forgotten. But it’s not because the brand has gotten worse. It hasn’t. MAC is the granddaddy of all the newer trendy brands and will probably continue to be around for a long time after the trendy (and sometimes lesser quality) brands die off. It’s also become trendy to talk negatively about MAC on camera. I wish more TH-camrs would admit how much they still love MAC, even if they do use other brands too.

      It is still very much current with professional working makeup artists. And those are who this brand catered to from their inception. They became much more mainstream for regular consumers in the 90s. But even then, you were lucky if your local mall had a MAC counter. I know my local mall didn't get a MAC until 2000. God im old. 🤦‍♀️ The point is, MAC won't be dated in my eyes ever. They are innovators still to this day.

    @JaeggerPendoley 4 ปีที่แล้ว +85

    Since a large amount of people have already brought up the animal cruelty issue, I shall offer a different perspective. Ever since Estée Lauder acquired MAC their formulas have gone down in quality. This is a major complaint amongst fellow professional makeup artists in the industry. Additionally, their pro program has quite the hefty price tag, which continues to be increased while the % off decreases. Employees of the brand, are no longer promoted based on artistry, but rather how much product they can sell. If you look inside the corporate structure, there have been quite a few complaints from the employees with “small job titles.” As a former employee of several years, than freelancing with an agency in NYC for several more, these are some of the complaints voiced by my colleagues, as well as my 2 cents. 💕

    In recent months I've been back into MAC. I think you nailed it when you brought up their frequent launches. They come out with new collections so often, and unless you immediately jump, you can't get them, then that takes out the excitement for something new, at least for me. Because I'm not going on a website at midnight or something like that just to get something before I've even seen reviews or anything. And I live in Montana where I mostly buy mail-order. Yes, Ulta has MAC now which I'm glad for, but again, this is Montana, so very limited selection in-store. My current fave is the Face and Body foundation - it is the best for not coming off on my mask, and I can vouch for it being friendly to mature skin (I just turned 64). Speaking of old-school, I have a MAC Mineralize blush in Dainty - I swear it's like 10 years old, but I actually still use it and it's beautiful!

    Hello! First time viewer! Where’ve I been under a rock? Yes I am a MAC User still like from the 90’s. It was my first real makeup from the department store. My older sister always said if you have the lip liners plum and spice you are good to go! I still use the MAC Studio Finish Concealer. The makeup world is flooded with more products then when I was a teen in the mid 90’s. We used Maybelline and Covergirl because that’s all there was until MAC came along. Some of us felt that Estée Lauder or Mary Kay was our mother’s makeup until recently with Estee and their new foundations. MAC formulas and foundations might not be easy to work with as new makeup is. MAC is multitasking and use. I remember loving all the MAC secrets to products that might be an issue too where makeup brands now come out and say this is what to do how to use etc. Thank you for the video! 👍🏼

I started loving them just for their lipsticks, but they aren’t a “one hit wonder” - their lipsticks, lip liners, eyeshadows, blushes, highlights, and more are amazing and my holy grails.

For everyday wear, they just have the best color range and they're easy to use.

Most brands would advertise lighter foundations and many girls would walk around with a grey mask on their faces. Many indian makeup companies had just one foundation shade..ONE for a country with 3 billion people. So mac was the only place where I could go and not have the sales assistant tell me to buy a white foundation in order to make me look fair. I cant live without the powder foundation, the concealer studio fix and prolongwear, the face and body foundation, fix plus and the most beautiful highlighter I have used the cream colour base in hush.

You helped me through the toughest time in my life. 5 in a half years ago I was hospitalized 6 days after my sons birth. I was by myself for 3 months while my son was being taken care of by my mother father and my husband. It was not only, traumatizing but so very depressing to be alone morning noon and night. I’d binge watch your videos for the nights that I wasn’t able to be on the phone to listen to my son snoring. Your videos would not only calm me down and help with my anxiety but, they’d also help me sleep as well. There were nights that I’d lie awake in my hospital bed for hours and just watch you put on makeup or talk about products, I just wanted to say thank you for helping me get through that rough time, and thank you for continuing to do TH-cam. I still watch you every video you post, you’re still able to calm me down when I’m having bad anxiety. You’re an amazing person and just thank you so much!

    I love so many MAC products and I think their cost performance is wonderful. But the main reason I'm put off of buying it is because every single time I go into the MAC counter to test colors, the people they have working at the counter have been so... awful. I know that's a sweeping generalization, but seriously, every single time, every single counter. They're just. So indifferent about helping, almost like they're doing you a favor, and like they'd rather be anywhere but looking for your eyeliner. It's such a sharp contrast to other counters, where I always feel welcome and where workers are so happy to help, like at Benefit, or Lancome. I buy the MAC that I know online, but walking in and out of a store always leaves me feeling like I shouldn't have bothered.
    That, and the animal cruelty also isn't a great look.

I have used Mac "spice" lip liner for probably 15 years. i love the lipsticks, shadows, foundation, mascara, paint pots, i love the blush melba. and now they have that glow blush called so natural that i want. i used the powder foundation for years before my skin was too dry. it was beautiful and my perfect shade

    For me I know Mac isn’t cruelty free so I no longer buy their products. Even when I see something on social media that I’m tempted by, I remember that their products are tested on animals to be able to sell in China and I tell myself no. There are so many other great cruelty free make up brands out there that I don’t need to buy the ones that aren’t anymore. Also while yes there are many household products, medicine etc that test on animals there isn’t as much consumer choice available with these products. I can very easily choose makeup that’s cruelty free unlike some of the other products, maybe one day products in those categories will also provide more choice. I love your videos but cruelty free is very important to me. x

      100% agree! It’s why I no longer purchase from them personally. I also think it’s quite ‘dupeable’ at a lower price point and I haven’t seen anything genuinely new or exciting from them for about a decade. If they went cruelty-free I would give them a second chance for nostalgic reasons though!

      Hey ladies! MAC doesn't test on animals. They don't ever test on animals, they don't have testing facilities, etc. The absolute only reason they are not cruelty free is because they sell and ship to China. Do you all know how that works? When they ship to China, the Chinese government may take a random selection at customs or at a warehouse, and test the products on animals for safety reasons. In the US we have developed other ways of doing that, and China, is well....China, they don't give a F. Now if you want to boycott products (any products) that are not cruelty free, then boycott China. Like the entire country....and good luck with finding products that aren't made in China. Your choices in things dwindles significantly. MAC has a whole campaign about fighting animal testing, and trying to work with the countries that do it to get them to stop. Could they just not sell there? Sure, but I know as a consumer that they are not the ones doing it, it's the Chinese government. If part of my buying from them goes to their initiative to stop it completely, all around the world and leave that practice behind, then fine. They'll need a lot of resources to help fight the good fight. But to each their own.

      @@zenmaster9195 Exactly, any lab is capable to buy some of the shelf products to test on whatever they want to test on. People just can't stop blaming the brand. Paying for a cruelty brand is paying for the company's concept. I do see many certified cruelty products selling on the Chinese retail store, including physicians formula, wet n wild, morphe etc. Many vegan brands have a certified legal warehouse in China to sell online.

      Paris 07 MAC is owned by Estée Lauder. Once they bought it they imposed their own rules about animal testing as they wanted to launch MAC in China. The decision had nothing to do with the original MAC staff. It was completely out of their hands. I’ve been using Studio Fix powder foundation since the and-eighties

It is well-known that Lauder doesn't care about animal testing, so if they were so against animal cruelty, why sell to one of the worst companies out there for this issue? I still maintain that this was a complete sell-out of their original marketing of Mac.

    Hi, Shelbey. I've just come across your channel -- and subscribed! -- primarily because of this video. MAC was my gateway makeup drug, and I've only recently rediscovered my old favourites again. I love the look you created here. My favourites include Studiofix Powder Foundation, their lipsticks and glosses, and their eyeshadows (especially mattes, my go-to finish) in pan format, so I can create my own custom palettes. I agree, their constant barrage of new releases used to be overwhelming, but I think this year the pace has slowed quite a bit. Thank you for turning the spotlight back on this iconic brand! 💗

    I started using MAC when I was a teenager in the early 2000’s. It’s a classic and even with all these influencer trends it’s been a staple and holy grail for me. I think people forget how MAC is literally the most inclusive makeup brand with every shades of the color wheel available for foundation, eyeshadows, etc. and when other brands are applauded for having “ wide range” of foundation shades, I’m always like… “but Mac has always had darker shades for POC” since like the beginning. After spending some time trying out makeup lauded by influencers and whatnot, I’ve always came back to MAC for reliable and dependable color and coverage and quality. So yea, will be MAC fangirl forever.

    Can I just say how much I appreciate that MAC products are unscented?!? I am so sensitive and cant wear perfume. Had to return Tarte palettes bc they reek of chocolate and made my eyes red. I do not want my makeup making me hungry or making me look stoned! I could smell the pallet as soon as I walked in the bathroom! Their shadows never have fallout, although some do need a heavier hand. Mac F&B is my holy grail, when I was young and now even more 20 years later. I need more coverage now, but I keep coming back to it bc it doesn’t look cakey or settle in my lines as much. I still get compliments on my skin even though I have rosecea. It covers well enough and leaves me with a natural dewy finish. They had the first makeup tone that didn’t make me look orange. (I have olive yellow undertones) Their shades are perfect for me and always give me a natural glow, without any trendy fake glitter. Still love their lustre lipsticks. Wish I could still find Viva Glam V but Midimauve and Hug Me will always do. Call me boring cus I’m not trying to do Kim K. I want to look like myself, only better. Always natural. That’s why I’m drawn to this channel. 😊

    I love F&B, studio fix powder plus, fix+ spray, strobe cream goldlite, and woodwinked eyeshadow. I remember my very first make up is the Mac studio fix liquid foundation and remember loving it.
