Hi, apologies if this has already been posted. I am from the UK but will be holidaying in NYC this summer. I have been saving my empty mac containers as I thought that you could B2M in the USA for a eyeshadow, lipstick or lip gloss, rather than just a lipstick like here in the UK. I just had a live chat with a UK mac artist and she said that in the USA I would only be able to B2M for a lipstick?
Can any confirm this for me? and if I can B2M for an eyeshadow, which stores will I be able to do that at? Times Square? Thanks in advance!!!
Enjoy holidaying in our fair NYc!!! Where are you staying?? So I can tell you which macs to go w the best staff haha -Emma

@becky123. Well ive never had a problem with the staff at TS per se, very helpful and used to the tourist perusing in.,, however it is times square and it gets very. Very crowded. I usually go to Mac pro on 22nd st bet 6th ave and 5th. (7 22nd st) Its a second floor, so it's not full of the passerby, the staff is nothing but awesome, helpful, you'll get a pick of pro products Which is also a perk... They have workstations so you can try your items at your leisure... -Emma

Would I be able to B2M a MSFN in Dark if the middle plastic piece from the lid is missing?? My apologies if this has already been posted.

My Mac store told me that after two weeks of launch I can B2M for Indulge items. I don't have any more empties to do so but are your guys familiar with that policy? In most cases, LE items in regular packaging with be SO within a two week period

That's incorrect. You can B2M for them as soon as they're available.

I didn't even notice this thread. So, so sorry. It was way down on the page and I just came back in here.

Do they still take depotted pots. The ones with the pan o' shadow taken out? And, also. Do you know if they take paint tubes? Because, I have a Flammable paint that sadly went bad and I'm highly allergic to it now.

Depots-depends on the location. But if not, you can just buy pans online and pop em in. Problem solved. Paints-yes. As always-anything glass, metal or plastic.

Thanks. I called the MAC here and they still take them without the pans. For some reason I always thought it was just plastic so I ask her about the paint too.

I feel kind of stupid asking this question...but....

I can't B2M pencil eyeliners right? Because the only thing I would return would be the nub of the pencil and the plastic lid....

I feel really silly for asking this. lol.

No, you cannot B2M eyeliner pencils, just for the reasons you said. Don't feel silly, it's a good question.

I was disappointed with my last B2M. They wanted the shadow containers with the tins and they wouldn't B2M for the Magnetic Nude lippies until two weeks after the release. Seriously? What's left to B2M from a collection two weeks later? LOL!

Only glass, metal, or plastic. Wooden pencils, brushes and accessories are excluded.
