yes its on Geary St. in downtown SF on Union Square. it can be across the street from it or on Union Square or inside the Union Square parking lot. i'm not sure where though.

edit 3/4: i might need to go see where it is when i hit downtown tomorrow or Friday

We have two in Oahu, Hawai'i. There's one in the airport, like it was mentioned above. The second is in Waikiki, where everyone can go into it. They sell a more limited amount of items, but those items include Asian exclusive colors like Goldbit and Lipblossum.

there are two m.a.c counters in singapore's changi airport's two terminals in the duty free section, they sell cheaper than retail..

there's also a huge 5-storey duty-free shopping mall called DFS galleria in the city's shopping district (scotts road, off orchard road), they have a m.a.c counter there as well. regular shoppers can purchase from there for the retail price, while tourists can claim back the sales tax at the customer service counters there.

Most international duty-free shops carry MAC. But I think the prices tend to be higher because everything is imported. I've been to several in Japan and Korea, but like eyeshadows were $18 compared to the $13.50 here.

Grr, I was so close to the Pearson MAC duty free! AA flight (Trm. 3) got cancelled, was rebooked on Air Canada (Trm. 1) but unconfirmed so we didn't get it! I'll try to hit the other ones, like Narita and TST.

I saw some duty free stores at the Chicago O'Hare airport in Terminal 3 and Terminal 5. No MAC, but the other usual lines (Lancome, Clinique, Estee Lauder, some with Dior, etc.)

I didn't get a chance to look up the stores when I flew in, but hopefully I'll get to before I depart. Thanks!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am flying international from Pearson's Terminal 1 in February. I hope I can get some awesome duty free MAC! Has anyone shopped for duty free MAC in the last little while? Anyone know what goodies they are selling? Any information specific to Pearson's duty free is greatly appreciated!

There isn't one in Bangkok when I was there in September, but there were a ton of other cute little stores.

When you're in Thailand have a look at the fakes in the markets - they're hilarious - and what they try to get you to pay for a fake is laughable too!

And I will probably get a few good laughs about the bad fakes!
