It's bad when there are so many people complaining that it is worth creating a canned response to send to them. Shouldn't that say something?
Pigment jars getting smaller; prices staying the same

Yep she does indeed. Like when you check out some of the recent launches like from All Races on the bottom all the bloggers have to disclose how they get their product and they sent her the whole collection for free.

Wow. I aways wondered how she manages to buy everything from every single collection. It explains how she never really says any product is really bad in her reveiws. I guess she was defending MAC after all.

Yeah I always did wonder how she could afford to buy everything from every collection but now we know.
wow i had no idea that she got sent all the stuff for free - so i agree when it sounded like she was defending mac she most likley was!
well at least i wasn't the only one who got such a crappy responce. i just won't be buying pigments anymore. to be fair i have more than enough to keep me going, it's just a shame that mac have lost so many customers over this.

Well, Clinique, like MAC, is owned by Estee Lauder. During the summer EL pinked slipped 1000 employees. Don't know if it was just the EL brand or across all the companies. And I didn't know that Prescriptives that just went belly-up was an EL company.

Yep Estee owns a lot of cosmetic giants and yeah I wouldn't doubt if the laid off people were all just in the EL companies, apparently though all the ladies and gents in Prescriptives are guaranteed a place in the company.

I'm done with pigments and will email them to explain that although I've given them quite a lot of my hard earned money in the past decade, they can count me out of further purchases until they rethink their policy of reaming loyal customers. |

It should. When my pigment set was much smaller, I used an OPI rack to hold them-if I remember correctly, China Glaze and OPI are interchangeable in the polish racks.
If I can figure out how to post pictures here..
