Let’s see how well you know your MAC trivia.
The real test is whether or not you know the answer without looking it up online.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

P.S. For extra credit, do you know what the letters M, A and C stand for in MAC?

I feel like I’m just repeating what everyone said, but yeah, MAC stands for Make-up Art Cosmetics.
I remember when I was first introduced to their products. I couldn’t have been older than 8 or 9. My jazz teacher was showing us all the stuff she got so our parents could get it for us to use in our performance… awww… memories.
