It'll be filled with cheap chinese powders to get the same colour, there's no way she'd get licenses from major make up houses.

I can see Mac laughing her out of the door, my missus has to go to Manchester to buy foundation and there's a reason for that.
Exclusivity and brand image.

As soon as everybody can get it at their fingertips it's no longer "exclusive" and brings down the perceived value of brand.

Im sure certain patents will come into play n all that.
the same applies for my missus she gets her stuff sent from Germany but it shows the length n price (ask ur missus the price if her makeup) their willing to go to.she had mentioned the chemical they use for the production of the makeup have been approved n I'd assume ud be able to purchase different cartridges based on quality of the ingredients.

Yeah the chemicals have been approved for use on human skin, I can get counterfeit Mac eyeshadows from China @ 75p each but you wouldn't want to spread it on your face.

I'm sure you would be able to get better quality carts but even with supposed licensing it's still going to be more expensive that buying from a legit shop.

My missus buys Mac, she pays about £25-£35 for a foundation AND that's with a discount for taking them your old bottle back so they can send it back to the factory, clean it out and refill it.
Proper makeup houses have their own chemists and labs.

It would be easier to get one cartridge but that's not possible.
It'll be a set of say 6 main colour cartridges that make a pallet of so many colours just like a regular printer would.

Mac is top end though, lol.
The most I spend on shit is on aftershave, I can do £60-£80 on a bottle but it'll last me a year or two.
