About brand
The company originated in Toronto in 1984 and initially positioned itself as producing cosmetics exclusively for the needs of professional makeup artists. One of the founders, photographer Frank Toscana, was unhappy with the quality of the make-up on the models - in the pictures the face seemed pale and expressionless. So the idea arose to create high-quality products that would be ideal for photo shoots. Incredibly, the first samples of lipstick were cooked in a regular kitchen. No one could have imagined that in a few years, the famous shade of “Russian Red” would become the favorite of Madonna herself. Today, the production of Mac cosmetics is scattered around the world: Italy, Germany, Czech Republic.
The basis of the brand includes the release of four lines means for the face and body:
- perfumery;
- decorative cosmetics;
- care products;
- products for applying cosmetics.
You can buy famous products only on the official website of the company and in specialized sales outlets.

For example, in one palette you can place all the peach colors that a makeup artist may need in his work for face sculpting. In one case can accommodate up to 30 rouge. For non-professionals, the “2 color” or “3 color” case will be a successful acquisition.
How to pick up?
Blush when properly applied can transform and refresh the image and give shine. With the wrong - you can get an unhealthy look and a painful complexion. The main points of the selection of blush to create a beautiful makeup are:
- for dry skin it is better to use cream formulas - they will help moisturize the skin and fill it with radiance;
- choose the shade of the tool, best focusing on the color type of their skin. So, warm peach, beige and brown tones will suit the owners of warm skin and hair. For blondes with cold skin type - shades of pink, plum;
- It is necessary to apply blush with a wide brush along the cheekbone line from bottom to top;
- powder mineral agents should preferably be applied over the powder, cream - over the foundation;
- to create a harmonious image, a prerequisite is a combination of blush with shadows and lipstick.
How to distinguish the original from a fake?
Cosmetics company MAS can be purchased at the official online store of the company, there you can see the addresses of points of sale in any city. Funds purchased elsewhere or from individuals leave doubts about their originality and affiliation with the MAS.
Any product offered to you under the guise of this brand can be viewed on the manufacturer's website. If this product is not in the line, then we can safely say that before you is a fake.
The cost of MAC cosmetics is quite high; there are many replicas of a famous brand on the market, but it’s unlikely that the copy manufacturer will be able to answer for the quality of the product at its reduced cost. Buying cosmetics from an official representative will save you from a poor-quality product.
Reviews
Products of the brand MAS have a lot of enthusiastic reviews, both from simple customers and from professionals. Perhaps the most popular blush are the MAS "Powder Blush Harmony." After the video of the famous beauty blogger Elena Krygina, pink-beige-brown blush appeared in the makeup bag of almost every woman.
Cream blush from the MAS fell in love with many for the incredible firmness, good shading and natural radiance, which they give to the skin of the face.
On Internet forums you can find rave reviews about MAC blush in balls. The origin of this product remains in doubt, because on the official website of the company such a tool is not presented.
MAS company produces expensive high-quality luxury cosmetics, so any products of this brand a priori becomes popular.
How to be those who do not have the opportunity to purchase the famous cosmetics? Are there any budget analogs of the brand? Regarding blush, you can recommend Max Factor "Flawless Perfection" - the tool is well applied, has a high-quality texture, cost-effective. It is worth noting the blush of the brand "Nyx" - they are, of course, not much cheaper than MAC, but they have a beautiful light brown color without a hint of red, light in application, on the skin look natural.
