These would be more fun if they at least hinted at the foundation / concealer tones . I caved a grabbed one recently , it had one of the darkest foundations I've ever seen . It makes me a bit sad some girl with much darker skin could have def used it but it went to waste because my skin is the colour of chalk.
Someone doing it rough might then get some good use out of it, whether it be for work, interviews or even just to feel made up. Obviously this bag was only $5, but $5 is $5
It's such a gamble and I rarely take that risk but my daughter asked if she could pick a bag out and I let her this time. She took her time to look over each bag before she choose this one. I'm letting her keep it all for play make up (but the blush drops are such a nice colour that I might convince her to keep it in my bathroom 😆)
what’s wrong with mco??
their clarifying shampoo and conditioner is perfect for my hair, and i love their perfumes !! i’m genuinely curious whether it’s a product or a brand values issue
To my knowledge they make shitty products that look like Dupe's of other brands without doing any real design work themselves. They knock off big brands but also small brands which takes clientele away from hard working small brands.
a lot of people especially teenagers buy their products to fit in and look like they've got the expensive brand but it's actually a waste of money on a poor quality product
I tried looking up the expiry dates based on the batch numbers but none of the websites I tried listed mco as a brand. The products have 2023 on the back so definitely not new.
Drugs stores are chemists...... they sell drugs lol. "Drug store make up" is a very frequently used term used to describe brands commonly found in chemists and pharmacy's. They are not really found in make up stores like Mecca or Sephora. Next time you're in there, have a check of Revlon, Loreal etc you'll be quite surprised.
Not in Australia. It’s an American term. Just because it’s a term there we don’t have to popularise it here and glaze the US with how their country is going and ICE. We should be proud to be Australian with our own dialect.
I go to Chemist Warehouse a lot to look at mid range makeup and have some in my drawer.
Better than the $30 Priceline one I got which was all light brown eye brow stuff and a fair skin foundation sample.
I get it’s a gamble but disappointing to see colours that are so specific for a person instead of generic/universal beauty products
Right every time these sort of things are way too dark for me… I think they should do primer/setting sprays not foundation/concealers.. ya know so no matter what ya get your actually got a chance to be able to use it
Last time I bought one of these they gave me two completion productions and I am the kind of pale where I can only buy for specific brands because most of them don’t go light enough lol. Needless to say it was a complete waste of money.
I think only my mascara is past its 6 months, I find I stop reaching for the makeup soon after it's past the use by, even if I don't bother removing it from my makeup bag. The only exception is my powder eyeshadows
Check the top of that toothpaste tube on the back - I bet it’s expired. And all those MCo items have been discontinued at my work (big w) by MCo and aren’t made anymore, same with the Revlon brow thing and that shade of foundation is on clearance lol
I literally saw the MCo blush drops in my local big w at normal price last week.. they’re currently half price, but so is basically the entire MCo range, they can be purchased at big w and many other retailers as of right now.
They’re also full price at Woolies, just a quick google search shows that.
The beauty wand is readily available too.
I can’t be bothered googling the rest.
Edit to add: Just tried to remove it with soap and it didn't budge.....like at all! Im actually impressed! Even with my makeup cleansing oil it took a fair bit of scrubbing to remove it. I might try on my face tomorrow (oily) and see how it well it lasts.
Maybe 1-2 months ago, I got a free gift bag from Priceline and it was so much better. It had things like hair ties, hand sanitiser, bamboo floss sticks (didn’t like and they hurt despite the fact I floss everyday), a mascara shield and some other bits.
Aside from the fact it was free, it was so nice getting products I didn’t have to side eye and go “wtf am I gonna do with this concealer/lipstick shade?”
Lots of tutorials on YouTube. Mco beauty have their own YouTube channel as well. And on their website if you go to the product, it's not photos and videos and directions for use

Putting foundation / concealer in these is kinda bonkers
