I finally got the chance to unbox my ED haul that arrived yesterday! Question... a few of these boxes (MAC packaging) arrived opened, which is not a big deal because it seems to be a common issue?  However, I did notice that my DD looks like this.  The top part has areas that are lighter - is this normal?  And the bottom part looks like it has a fingerprint?  :wtf:   That was the first thing I noticed before I even opened the compact.  I inspected everything else and they all looked fine.
Someone mentioned earlier they had the same issue. That they MSf was swatched. They got theirs from Macy's.

Yes, it's by Hourglass. It's around $55, but it is AMAZing:) I just purchased their #1 brush yesterday with VIB 15%! Check it out:)
Hey, I went for the Hourglass brushes too on the Sephora sale! Love them--I got the large concealer, and 2 eyeshadow brushes (crease and dome). Considering going back for the #1, but I've been quite the spendthrift lately so might save that for their next sale.

I went back and looked at my Double Definition and a CP one, and sure enough, same thing. I ordered them from MAC's website.

Eww! I would call those guys up and tell them to send you a new one.

One a side note, those colors are AMAZING.

How could several of you have fingerprints on your product? That's gross. Take it to the police and have them identify the perp!

Thanks for checking.  Mine was Definitely Defined... must be quality control.
I checked the other two, which I purchased in the store yesterday, and same thing. I just called them and the rest of their stock has the same issue. The ones I ordered online, I'm exchanging but I'm concerned I just another two that are the same.

Yeah you do, it's been in Yasmin's Double definition.

Maybe this is why they aren't up on Mac's website? Maybe they got the shipment in and they were all defiled by someone grubby mitts.

I just spoke to an SA at the Freestanding store and all of her stock has the same thing. She assures me that since it's a baked product, those spots are a result of water evaporation and should in no way affect the product. Not sure how true that is, but I don't believe the product is tainted as a result. I sure hope it's not anyway. It seems to be, at the moment, a product-wide occurrence.
