@bugsey2 Feel free to share this. I am appalled at the amount of counterfeit makeup I am seeing on here. Even worse is the fact that people are KNOWINGLY buying and applying this poison to their skin. 😵

@triciatx how about all the used makeup?? It's sickeninh‼️

@bugsey2 I have scientific data downloaded to make a listing for that too. It shows the viruses in used makeup. It is really gross! I will tag you when I get it posted.

@ninjastank Yeah, it makes me sick that people knowingly sell toxins. It's one thing to sell fake purses, but actual topical substances is demented. I actually suffer from Perioral Dermatitis from legal ingredients like sulfates, paraben, fluoride. I can't use products with those ingredients. It is a lifelong autoimmune condition that sucks to deal with. These chemicals in the fake cosmetics can disfigure and/or even kill people. I try to help educate. Hopefully I help someone on here. 💜

@ninjastank I report through the button, but nothing happens. I don't have time to e-mail about each one. There are literally millions. Makes me sick. And the people selling samples out of their pigments!?! Why would anyone buy unlabeled "samples" you can get at a MAC PRO store! They have no clue what they are getting. Even if it is authentic, it is likely contaminated. Who knows what they are using to transfer, if the containers are sanitized, or how old the product is. 😷

@shannon31bell This is a HUGE pet peeve of mine. The majority of people seeing fake makeup know it is fake and dangerous. It is so unethical to knowingly expose someone to toxins. They are essentially poisoning people. It is a serious crime. =0(

@triciatx i do agree with you and surprised that "posh" doesnt pull these violations from the site...fake items are hard to spot and makeup is not something i know enough of to spot a fake.

pigments
Hi. Very informative. I use to buy MAC pigments off of eBay and when I sold one that I ended up not liking, someone told me it was fake so I googled fake vs authentic MAC pigments. Now I know. Well do you know how to spot fake Kylie Birthday lip kit? There are soooo many selling it up here and I don't want to buy fake to have my daughter put it on her lips. Let us know if you know. Take care and God Bless!

Oh yeah, how about fake MAC brushes?
Oct 01Reply

triciatx
@pigments I am not sure about other products besides pigments. I was fooled once long ago on eBay. Make sure the person has plenty of love notes. If a seller has a ton of sales, but zero of few love notes then that is a HUGE RED FLAG. I hope that helps. Counterfeits are dangerous. It makes me sick. Reviews are pretty reliable if you can find info. by googling. Best~ Tricia 💋💋💋💋

I think it's beyond despicable that there are Poshers selling a leading Brand like Mac on this website amongst others or Poshers selling Mac for Prices that don't even exist at Mac! They must think the majority of viewers lack any intellect at all! It's full of rat poison so cut it out!. I'm sharing this since it never stops!

Nov 02Reply

triciatx
@dahliar I can't believe people buy "samples". They have no clue what they are really getting in plain unmarked bottles. I have done a bunch of research on this. It is terrifying what people use to make imitation legitimate makeup. Not only that, but contamination alone from unsanitary handling of makeup can breed viruses that can be deadly. I developed a sling condition from FDA approved items. I can't use products with sodium laurel sulfate, triclosan, corticosteroids, fluoride, etc.
Nov 02Reply

triciatx
@dahliar Another thing to ask when buying online is when the item was purchased. I bought a Dermalogica eye cream on here. I was promised it was BRAND NEW. I got it, used it, and got a horrible eye infection. I called Dermalogica and the manufacture date was 3 years prior! There are a few good sites to use.... checkcosmetic(dot)net & checkfresh(dot)com =0)

@triciatx I was going to bring up fake brushes until I saw that @pigments already brought it to light ☺ I was sold a very, very EXPENSIVE MAC brush, when I got it the thing smelled of gasoline and car oil. Not something I'd like to spread all over my face.
Thank you for watching over the rest of us!!!💕 Like our Poshmark Batman😁!! But seriously, thanks!
Feb 15Reply

triciatx
@zom_b Of course;) It is very scary. Unless the person works for the manufacturer it is best to buy at a store. Many people do not even know that they are selling fake product. That is why there are authorized resellers for manufacturers. Poshmark is definitely NOT one for ANY prestige health, wellness, and/or beauty brand.
Feb 15Reply

triciatx
@zom_b Another thing when purchasing online.... Everyone says the item is new & sealed. New & Sealed is NOT the same as freshly manufactured & packaged. Ingredients become inactive and irritating even in seemingly new condition. I will make a post about this. EVERY skincare, cosmetic brand has a manufacture date. There are 2 websites you can check the codes on or call the manufacturer and give them the batch code.

@pattyms33 I tried to comment back, but couldn't. Sorry, I wasn't trying to be a hater. It actually popped up in my feed. I only said something bc your other MAC items look authentic. I would hate for you to use it if you have any others like that. Here is a helpful post I made;)

@triciatx twice now I have bought beautiful items to receive what looks like Halloween costumes for kids or dog toys to where I'm like I didn't order this then make the connection. I have gone to the trouble of sending pics to Posh w report, but no money received back, in fact no word ever received. Is there just too many to address? I thought I'd get a refund for sure but nope. So buyer beware I guess?

@thebrownlees As soon as you get that pigment - do not accept. Report it as counterfeit to Poshmark. They will refund you and give you a return shipping label. Do not apply that to your skin. It is not safe:(. You will be able to tell immediately that it is not authentic by the smell & consistency as well as the packaging.

@triciatx thank you so much for stepping in and letting me know about this. I contacted the seller and poshmark. The seller said she bought it from a wholesale distributor. I have diabetes and macular degeneration so I'm very sensitive to eye make up. You have no idea how thankful I am that you said something your awesome.

@thebrownlees I have a skin condition from using FDA approved ingredients vin skincare. I can only imagine what is in these.

@katiesnappy If you are new to using any high end makeup brands you should go into Neiman Marcus, Sephora, or a MAC Pro stand alone store. They will do your makeup for free and give you samples. I only buy makeup on here from makeup artists because I know they get it directly from the manufacturer. A ton of people on here buy makeup cheap to sell. They are sold counterfeit makeup and are told it is authentic, then sell it as such.
Jul 17Reply

triciatx
@katiesnappy That is why brands have "authorized" sellers/stores where you can buy their product with confidence. There are so many counterfeits and they look authentic. When it comes to applying something to your skin you can never be too safe. Check out my post on expiration/manufacture dates too. 💋
Jul 17Reply

katiesnappy
@triciatx I pretty much exclusively shop for my makeup/skincare at Sephora (I was just there over the weekend, actually!) for exactly the reasons you described. I have hyper-sensitive skin so finding *any* product that won't cause me to have an allergic reaction is a huge task, let potentially used/old/counterfeit makeup. The only makeup product I have bought on Posh was a new eyeshadow brush sealed in the package with a copy of the receipt.
Jul 17Reply

triciatx
@crystallong00 I just saw this. Years & years ago about 10 pigments on eBay and they were obviously fake. Luckily, I could tell by the smell, consistency, and packaging. The seller said she was unaware they were fake. That is the problem. Too many people are buying cheap stuff to resell and really have no clue where it is manufactured. I got a full refund from eBay. Now most brands have a place on their website where you can let them know about counterfeits of their brand which is nice. 💋

@katiesnappy I spend too much money at Sephora:) I developed a skin condition Perioral Dermatitis from irritants in FDA approved products:/ I have to be extremely careful to not have a flare up. I use & love Burt's Bees acne cleansing gel. I don't have acne, but this cleanser is natural & has just enough salicylic acid to gently exfoliate without irritation. I use a homemade toner (1/2 bottle spring water + a few drops of tea tree oil). It is anti-bacterial, 100% natural, and cheap;)

@missktmoe Did you see this one? I am a firm believer in reporting replicas to the FBI. Whether it be cosmetics, purses, clothing, pharma, etc. The chemicals & contaminants used in these illegal factories are toxic. Not too mention the copyright/trademark laws being violated and devaluing brands.

@sicnic9 There are so many counterfeits on here. The sellers themselves don't even know what they are selling:( If you purchase makeup on here, then always ask these questions..
- Where was this purchased from?
- When did you purchase this?
- Is this guaranteed authentic?
If the person is vague, and says they have a "supplier", then do NOT buy. Those people are buying from overseas websites producing counterfeits. Reputable brands have a specific list of authorized resellers.
