I have never seen the bunnies or the zipper necklace - love them both.

I also have to say that I've been to MAC many (many, many?) times and never noticed any kind of jewellery. Oh dear! I'm not too observant, clearly.

wow i didnt know this thread had potential! lol but yes my main point was i just always thought the necklaces were so cute, i wouldnt mind layering it up with a longer chain or something to wear every now and then, but i wasnt sure if they were for customers only or what not... i dont see anything wrong with someone wanting a MAC necklace to show their appreciation for it or what not, but i just didnt know how to get my hands on one, etc. i guess ill have to save it for the day i decide to work @ mac!

I don't work at MAC and I would wear that necklace in a heartbeat. I love MAC, I love jewelry, I love fashion and I would definitely rock it. As much as I got to MAC (like almost everyday during my lunch hour), shoot, I earned it too!! LOL...no but seriously, I've never seen any of the jewelry on any of the girls?? I think I saw one of the girls wearing the MAC necklace once but that's it...

Does this fall under an employee necklace or is this a piece released for the public? I was wondering when I stumbled on it but never even noticed the employees' necklaces to know it was a requirement. I speak with them freely but never noticed that, freaking pretty shallow on my part I guess. I have no intention of buying it as I'm not an employee but was curious what it was. It is very Office Space like whoever stated that....I felt for Jennifer Aniston in that movie. God, her boss' voice was so monotone too.

This wasn't an employee necklace, it was sold to the general public. Those were necklaces which held one of the three mini fragrances that MAC used to sell. The fragrances were in small ampules. There was: Asphalt Flower, Hyper Souk and Synthetic Nirvana. I think they were out in 98 or 99.

-Rain Man out!

We had our holiday FLAVA-FLAAAAV! necklaces a couple years ago.

P.S. Yeaaaah, boy.

P.S.S. Ok, I'll stop.

seriously! you would've thought they'd have atleast just did a quick finish on the edges.

i was hoping they'd send us somthing for style warriors like another scarf. instead we gotta find one on our own.

i thought they were gonna give us each ONE of the tribal earrings!

 

[II3rinII]

hey have any of you guys had your jewelry get tarnished? maybe its my skin, but none of my stuff looks shiny and silvery any more, its dull and kinda yellowed. this guy at the jewelry kios said i could clean them with windex, i tried, it maybe them a little bit shiny but they still look a bit tarnished... how do you all clean yours?

mine hasn't tarnished.

Has yours ever broken you out? Maybe its just cause i have super sensitive skin, but the mac necklace totally irritates my skin.

my coworker can only wear her certification necklace and her pin. everything else breaks her out in a rash if it touches her skin. they don't break me out tho and i've got super sensitive skin to touch.

You might be allergic to nickel. I am slightly allergic to it and too much MAC necklace time used to kill my skin.

You mean this?? ;__; Am I fugly...

but yeah, it was awful. :3 I only wore it for our event which was the weekend before Halloween, hence her face! Lol!

And to clarify to those wondering:

The Bunny necklace is a PeTA necklace.
The Zipper is our gift for Red She Said, since it sorta was reminiscent of the model's glove.

And yesss my Zipper and MAC necklace are tarnished from being against my skin too much!

neither have broken me out though. I wear them alll the time under shirts. No idea how to clean though. Maybe shoe polish to make it shinier, but to boost the silveryness I have no idea.

 

[nichollecaren]

baking soda might do the trick

If you have metal sensitivity I have just a little tip...you can coat the back of the necklace/charm with clear nail polish. I also use it on my cheap earring posts, works pretty well, and extends the time I can wear cheapie jewelry.
