Duty Free MAC
I was just wondering if there was a Duty Free MAC counter in the Melbourne Airport?

I know theres one in the Sydney one, so was wondering if Melbourne Airport has one too.

Re: Duty Free MAC
Ooo yay! I've got some relatives coming over from NZ soon. Do they have a good range there? Any collections or just perm stuff?

Re: Duty Free MAC
The prices at duty free usually isn't "discounted" per-se but they do have special brush sets and palettes that aren't available at the counters or stores.

Unless you're a flight attendant - then depending on the airport you can get either 15% or 20% off

Re: Duty Free MAC
Eyeshadows were $24, nice discount! Of course I wasnt expecting to see them so I couldnt decide and only ended up with one! lol
I didn't notice how much the Lip stuff or anything else was but I assume the discount would be a similar percentage.
I was there in mid-July and they had the Strange Hybrid display out, and yes they also had some travel palettes (one that caught my eye was one with two eyeshadows and a blush, Satin Taupe and Swish not sure what the blush was nor how much it was) It looked to me like pretty much the whole range of regular colours.
The range of duty free makeup seems a lot bigger now, more brands there that I don't remember seeing before. Oh and yeah the Melbourne Duty Free is cheaper than NZ at least on Chanel! Of course still pricey compared to the US but oh well we are used to that lol.

Re: Duty Free MAC
There's a MAC counter at the international departure bit of the Tullamarine airport. Not sure if it's duty-free (I'm guessing so).

Re: Duty Free MAC
I was so excited to see the duty free counter when i was leaving for fiji in june. Dont be stupid like me, and leave your purchases for the trip home, because you can only access it when you leave the country, not returning. Der cindy.

No, it's after you go through customs. All duty free shopping is done that way as you have to be leaving the country in order to not pay tax on those items.
