I wouldn't call the MAC stuff in the Meadham-Kirchhoff photo FAKE. It's REAL -- it's stuff that someone(s) - no doubt paid for their time - hand painted.
Rather than feel sad or fooled or cheated, use it as an inspiration to be creative!
If you want glam packing, take a makeup case of some sort - preferably reusable, like a PRO palette - and go crazy with paint, glitter, rhinestones, stickers - whatever excites and delights you.
Then you can have something on your dressing table that no one else in the whole world has.
