Don’t forget about Back to MAC

It’s rare I buy anything other than high street make up but I do have the occasional more expensive item. MAC make up is something I often receive for my birthday or Christmas and as such every couple of years or so, I accumulate old packaging. Fantastically, MAC are committed to the environment and as such they run a Back to MAC scheme in a bid to recycle products where possible.

If you return 6 MAC packaging containers back to MAC you will receive a free lipstick (excluding the Viva Glam Lipstick which are for a charitable cause).

MAC asks that items returned are “primary packaging” which means they do not accept the following:

Paper boxes
Plastic or cellophane wrappers
Shopping bags
Samples
Applicators/tools
Accessories (cases, bags, lashes and a few others)

I know a number of women with not insignificant MAC habits who had forgotten all about or not even heard about the Back to MAC scheme. So if you’re nearing the end of a beloved MAC product, make sure you hang on to the packaging so you can eventually be in line to score a free lippy.
Best yet, I have quite a few friends and colleagues who can’t be bothered to take their products back to the store “just” for a free product and they’re only too happy to shove them my way. Don’t be too scared to ask if you see a friend heading bin-ward with some MAC packaging.

P.S. Sorry things are a bit slow on the blog at the moment but sometimes real life gets a bit too hectic and online life has to take a back seat.
