Okay, so I know MAC and other brands are available but I just found this site where you can order MAC, Urban Decay, Dior and a lot of high-end or high street/drugstore makeup right in Pakistan and if you live in KHI you can pay on delivery, which I think is AWESOME.
The only downside is that the prices are slightly marked up but then again some are shipped from the UK and some from their KHI office. And it’s free shipping.

And I’m sure you all know about Sigma brushes, right? Well they sent out an email and in it they had posted some international bloggers etc that use their stuff and out of the 4-5 girls from all over the world, they picked a Pakistani blogger which was SO cool! She’s based in KHI:

Re: Buying international branded-makeup in Pakistan.
No comments..
Though i'd say if an original is imported in pakistan first and then resold it;s gona be much more expensive.
Cause they'd probably;y be buying it from store and not the manufacturer. I'd suggest ordering online, since bought some of the brands from pakistan, and they all turned out to be counterfeit, though i was promissed they were orignal and were a lot expensive.
Also, most of the things they swear are original are made in Thailand, which are NOT original.
Re: Buying international branded-makeup in Pakistan.
Oh no, these are not counterfeit which is why I posted it. And I know what you mean about replica cosmetics being found in Pakistan but you have to be careful and know about makeup in order to not fall for it. I remember my chachi was bragging about buying a Chanel highlighter from Pakistan so being a makeup lover I was intrigued and once I saw it I had to politely tell her it was fake. The compact looked like that of a MAC blush yet instead of MAC written on top it had the double Cs. She insisted it was Chanel, lol, and I told her that I follow Chanel's makeup pretty closely and know how their packaging looks and kind of stuff they come out with (it's a relatively small as far as makeup selection is concerned).
Khair, this was just to help bride-to-be's so they could get some international brands without asking a relative or someone of the sort to get it for them. And since they offer pay-on-delievery the person has a chance to examine everything before buying.
Re: Buying international branded-makeup in Pakistan.
Mac and other branded make-up, perfumes n stuff are available at Al-fatah. They might not have the latest shades but still better than nothing. Though if you have a chance to get them directly from the 1st source, that's always the best option.
