Mac Cosmetics

It took me well over a month to get a response from them. However, I got a nicely detailed response today (04/12/07) regarding their products. Here you go:

Thank you for taking the time to contact M.A.C.

We now consider wheat, barley, oat , rye, corn, rice and soy.While a

formulation may contain no wheat, oat, barley or rye derivatives, for the

benefit of our gluten-sensitive consumers who may have cross-sensitivities,

M.A.C takes the extra precaution of including corn, rice and soy in our

research.

CONTAINS:

Amplified Cr

I wear MAC (or did until my dx and subsequent fear of cosmetics!)I stopped by their counter and they have a book that lists all of the ingredients at all the counters. It doesn't do all the translations, but if you were interested in specific products (I was) and knew how to translate it was helpful. I was impressed my the level of detail and the helpfulness of the woman working there - maybe that's normal?

The products I use weren't on the list given here - I hope that means they're gluten-free (which was my tentative conclusion from the counter) and means I can choose to hid how much like death I look these days! Now I just need to tackle Prescriptives...

Thanks for posting the translated list!!
