go to macpro.com and click on "download an application". it lists what you need to send in. nail techs get 30% off.

I checked my account and my $35 got deducted! YAY! But it took about 4-6 weeks to actually get it deducted. I don't know how long it's gonna take for my card now...hopefully soon!

I got my Pro Card today!!!

Needless to say I am going to break the bank shopping at the Pro Store! So the time from mailing in the application to receiving the actual card is a month (I live in California) I'm so happy!!!

 

[PrettyDolledUp]

I got my PRO CARD in the mail today! wooOoohhOOooooo!

I live in California also, and the whole process from mailing it in to receiving it also took approximately 1 month! I'm soOooo excited!!!

Hello MAC addicts =)

Okay I'm sending in a letter of recommendationi from a girl I did her makeup and hair for prom, a contract with a bride, and a business card that I designed. Would that be enough?

I love M.A.C and have been doing so many peoples make-ups so the discount would be awesome.

I sent what you sent plus a resume and got approved! I think you should get it!

i'm gonna say that you don't qualify. you have to currently be in a profession that qualifies, and since you said you used to model, then you don't qualify for the program.

That should be MORE THAN ENOUGH. Before I sent in my application and required information, I was contemplating about what types of documents I need to show as proof. I ended up just sending in:

1. My Business Card
2. a Letter of Reference from a girl that hired me to do her makeup for prom

Plus of course the copy of ID and application. But that was about it and I got approved. Again, it took a total of about 4-6 weeks for me before I got my card.

I hope that helped!

Does anyone know if a UK MAC Pro card can be used in the US?
Over here we get 35% and US get 40%.

I mailed mine in. I thought I read that they stop accepting fax application so I just mail mine.

My husband is in the Army and we recently got stationed in Colorado but I only have my Virginia driver's license. Do you think that will matter when I send in my application?
