MAC and other big brands...

Hi guys!

I just wanted to know if brands like MAC, ESTEE LAUDER, BOBBI BROWN, CHANEL, DIOR, CLINIQUE etc are available in pakistan?

If not then where do the girls in pakistan buy them from?

Just curious thats all! :slight_smile:

Re: MAC and other big brands...

my sister said she went to buy MAC in lahore (i think it was from roop singhar or some other shop in liberty) and the guy showed her 2 different varieties; expensive one and cheap one. One foundation was Rs 300 and the other one was Rs 3500 :D .. i sent her one from UK and told her not to buy it from there. She bought the expensive version of the eyeliner which had dried up the next time she opened it to use!! so i wouldn't trust it unfortunately!

Re: MAC and other big brands...

These brands are available, however one is skeptical buying such stuff from here as you cant really tel if its original or a fake one.
In Karachi, you can get such stuff from Naheed / EBCO, comparatively more reliable retailers., but its better to get them from abroad.

Re: MAC and other big brands...

pakistan got china version of these products

Re: MAC and other big brands...

maheen tell your sister to leave the eyeliner in hot water for an hour. She'll be able to use the eyeliner as it won't be dry anymore =)

Re: MAC and other big brands...

Even in America Mac foundation have different variety that cost different. 500rs difference is nothing big. If you are familiar with original packaging u will be able to tell if it is fake or not

Re: MAC and other big brands...

I get most of my cosmetics from my sisters in USA, Thank god for them. Becauz cosmetics over here is most of the time fake. Until or unless you go for the local brands like karoja and stuff.

Re: MAC and other big brands…

yea 2 pakistan…did ny1 tried it gettin shipped 2 pak???

Re: MAC and other big brands...

I mostly do, the sites are safe, items do get shipped, problem happenes in Pakistan.

They open the package, check everything, some items get missing, they repack the package,
charge you a repacking fee, add up taxes and then deliver to you.

Re: MAC and other big brands...

soooo still u get them shipped 2 pak..despite all os dis??wic city r u living in?n wic site u mostly order frm?

Re: MAC and other big brands...

I'm staying in Lahore.
Yes, i still get them shipped cause my skin is too sensitive and i can;t try those fake stuff.

My family sends me from Hong Kong and USA. I mostly order them to sell on my website.
It;s hard getting things into Pakistan, costs you much more then the original price.
