Back 2 MAC packaging

RubyRouge · 07-29-2006, 06:24 AM #1 (**permalink**)

Hi. I'm new to this site & also have never done Back 2 MAC before. I'm travelling to Sydney from Newcastle early tomorrow & want to check before I leave that what I'm recycling is OK. If anyone can help me I'd be really grateful! I've got: Pro Lash Mascara, Eyeshadow pots, Studio Fix compact & Studio Finish tube foundation. Thanks!

yep, you should be fine with all of those.... just hand them into MAC and choose your lippy(s).
Have fun

Just a stupid question on B2M, can you hand in 18 empty products and get 3 lippies, or is there a limit?

there is no limit as far as i know

but i think they would be a bit suspicious if somebody sent in say 300 empty b2m's hahahah

There's no limit, but be sensible about it - bringing in a hundred items for B2M is going to be a PITA for all concerned.

RubyRouge, as long as you have six items, you'll be all set for B2M.

^ Great to hear, thanks Lara! And no, i only have the 18 empty pots, not 100, lol!

i'd completely forgotten about this.

but then i've got so much stuff i'm probably never going to hit pan with anything :-/

I have a lot of pots but i was wonderig what about the boxes with b2m on it. Are those good for b2m too. I feel stupid asking this, but don't realy know to be honest.

The boxes with the B2M logo aren't valid for B2M - they only indicate that the product inside is valid for B2M.

what a bummer! Boooooo for mac lol! was to good to be true :-P

Sorry, another question on B2M, but does it matter if the plastic insert in the depotted eyeshadow is a little bent out of shape? I left it on the straightener longer than i should have

Ask as many questions as you need! We're all here to help.

The plastic insert can be completely seperated and burnt to a wobbly crisp - as long as it's with the rest of the eyeshadow pot to count as one B2M item. (I usually just rubber-band them together to make it easier to count at the counter)

Ahhh! Thank you so much lara, your so sweet

I was a little worried! The first lot of depotting i did, my boy handled the melting part (he had great fun burning those things, lol) and was fairly meticulous. I just depotted 2 last night and thought it would be easy, but by the end the inserts were pretty well melted out of shape!

Can you do back 2 mac at M.A.C Myer counters? My closest is Brisbane City. Thanks!

lara · 10-01-2006, 08:01 AM #15 (**permalink**)

LoisLane22, you can. B2M is available at all MAC stores and counters.

Can B2M only be used for lipsticks? I was reading elsewhere on Specktra (US posters I guess) said you can also receive lipgloss, eyeshadows?
