The one in the middle of the lower row looks a lot like Your Ladyship. But why are the names not on the bottoms of the pigments? Just curious...

right above the piggys is the story

my 3 year old is a "sticker picker" any sticker anywhere she has it! she opened my piggy drawer and started picking! if you look in the hauls i have a pic of my collection s you will see why i am having issues identifying,lol someone told me that you ladies on here are super helpful so i thought id give it a try!

I have to tell you that some of these look unauthentic to me too...

The flash is quite obscuring, the first one could even be violet. The middle one is definitely NOT Your Ladyship, and the last two look very much like the fake Apricot Pinks and fake Whites I have seen in person in the past

 

[nichollecaren]

having déjà vu


first one looks similar to violet, and the middle looks similar to vanilla...the rest no idea

The reason you are catching some flack for this, is due to someone not long ago coming here with obvious fake pigments and a dubious story about she acquired them. She wanted everyone to help her identify them, so she could palm them off/sell them to some poor unsuspecting Mac newbie. So we're a little bit gun-shy when someone comes in with a story about how they have pigments they can't identify.

My suggestion is to take them into your local Mac counter where you got them from and explain what happened and ask them to help you identify them. I'm assuming they're legit, so it shouldn't be a problem for you, right?

I understand and it isn't a judgment on you, because quite frankly, we don't know you well enough to make a judgment. But as was said above, it certainly felt like déjà vu all over again. Good luck with getting them identified and lock them up where moma's little helper can't get at them again.
