Re: back to mac empties
^i am sure no lipliners and I believe any packaging has to be full sized.

You can't bring in pencils. Probably not sample jars either. I'm wondering about my mini sample of Zoomlash but I'm guess not on that too LOL.

Hi,
could someone please tell me if they accept depotted eyeshadow in Singapore?
I just got my 15 palettes
and I asked the Ma but she gave a confused look and then said no, so I think that between the blasting music and my italian accent she didn't really understand me!
I was in a hurry so I didn't press the point but if someone could answer me I would be very grateful
Thank you!

Has anyone been told different things about whether you can choose a limited edition lipstick as you free one when you b2m ? One lady told me I could, so I went in today got another girl serve me who refused, said it was never allowed and even checked with the managers :0 , so that was fun, just wondering if there is an official policy with this ?

UPDATE! Girls you will be happy.
So I went to pick up some of my pre-sales from Starflash today and I was chatting with the manager of my MAC counter @ Nordy's. She informed me that they recieved a voicemail saying they can now take eyeshadow pots WITHOUT the metal pan. She called over to the Pro store (San Francisco) to verify this. Policy still remains the same, you can bring in up to 24 empties - enough for 4 lipsticks, shadow, lipglass..whatever. I'm so excited! I have 48 empties, mostly depotted shadows! I thought it'd take forever to b2m these! However once you recycle your plastic pots, the metal pans are no good..so throw them away bc they won't take them. The only metal pans acceptable are the palette refills WITH magnets still attached.
Hope this helps you guys! I'm headed to my Pro store tomorrow so I can b2m for some more goodies

I brought 24 empty shadow cases without the pans to one of my freestanding stores today (in San Francisco on Fillmore St.) and they took all 24 no questions asked. I did call before going in so I wouldn't feel like a reject if they wouldn't take them.
I picked up 4 shadows from Love That Look and left a happy girl! Time to depot

so, this is true for ALL mac freestanding stores? That they WILL take depotted shadows/blushes? I got turned down about a month ago saying that they can't take depotted pots without the metal pan....? And I only had 6 at the time so it's not like I had a crap load..

They should! When I went the other day the MA wasn't informed of the program changing again, not until she asked one of the other MA's if they were taking depots. I believe they've only been taking depots for about a week or two..so not everyone may be informed! I've learned this the hard way. I didn't want to sound like a bitch about it either, but I've heard stories of MA's reject depots from patrons and not giving them back. I've got 2 freestanding stores near me, one being Pro so I guess I'm kinda lucky. If you bring in depots, you cannot bring back the pans separately to b2m again. The only pans you can bring in are refills! HTH! Sorry for getting so wordy
