Just a quick update about macmakeupwholesale.com, as I have had several queries in the last few weeks about it. As described by one member – “It appears to be a fantastic website selling MAC and Benefit wholesale makeup really cheaply and before I place an order I wanted to find out whether they sell authentic MAC and Benefit make up”.
That site was registered on 5 July 2010 in China. I have not used it and I definitely will not be wasting my money, not now or for that matter, ever. In my opinion it appears to be a fantastic rip off. It states that it is a factory source of MAC and Benefit, although I very much doubt that the people from either of those companies have ever heard of it. Factory source sure, but whose factory is another matter. Also, their comments about dropshipping I would take with a pinch of reality salt.
They also have a sister site for wholesale Benefit makeup – the same comments as above apply to that as well. I think they are selling rubbish. I also mistakenly thought that it would be obvious to people looking at the sites that they are not genuine, but it seems that already a lot of people are being taken in. Send this website money at your peril.
If you are looking for authentic high end wholesale makeup supplies for your cosmetics business then look no further than the sellers featured on Cheap Slap. There is a small cost to join Cheap Slap which covers the costs of running this site. Many members have contacted me to say that the joining fee is nothing compared to the alternative of what they could have lost if they had not contacted me for advice.

macmakeupwholesale.com clarify the stuff is not real,they are made of the same ingredients and package.they dont cheat any one.
Do you buy from them?how do you judge it?it is radiculous.
they never judge and only tell everyone how to use the makeups.you should learn from us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are a not reponsible people and lead the people a wrong way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did order from this site and although I cannot see anything that suggests the eyeshadows are fake, the lipglosses smell like petrol!! Not a good sign!
Eyeshadows have seriel numbers and colors printed on the box and seem to look genuine enough, but because of the lipgloss i think they are just very good fakes.
Has anyone else seen them and have a view?
Hi Lana
I had this email from someone who ordered from them by mistake before seeing my review:
“This website is based in China and only sells fake MAC and Benefit products. I have just received my Benefit order so I can confirm this first hand. Some of the products aren’t even that good a copy so you can tell immediately! I emailed them to complain as I thought I was buying genuine Benefit products and sent me an email back confirming my fear that all the products are fake, including the MAC products. I can forward you the emails if you like.”
Also, if you look at their FAQ page there is a comment confirming that the products are replicas.
Best wishes
Melissa
Hi Lily
Thanks for confirming that the site sells fakes. I am not sure if you are their official representative, but I know who is leading people the wrong way and it’s certainly not me.
Melissa
thank you for clearing that one up for me melissa……the website is very misleading and we are now stuck with fake mac
……1st experience of ordering from abroad and must say have only used your recommended uk sites since! And have been very pleased with everything lots of lovely and genuine goodies! Shall not give up on the hunt for Mac though……….thanks!
wish we’d joined this site before ordering anything!
Hi Lana
I will email you about a good MAC supplier! M
Melissa,
please email me about good mac supplier too.
I ordered from macmakeupwholesale.com…the site clearly states they are not real MAC. Anyone would be a fool if they didn’t actually read up before ordering. Everyone is quick to judge, but there are lots of people actually looking for those kind of “knockoffs.” Really people…how about u read the fine print!
I thought the site was sketchy and this article confirmed it. Especially since if you go to the Wholesale FAQ section of their website, you will see that “Lily” is also one of the authors on their site. Very professional Lily. Bravo. That definitely made me NOT want to buy anything from there.
Hi, I am fairly new to this makeup thing so I decided to try MAC which is the best decision I have made thus far. I’m a college student and MAC is a bit pricey but hey, the best things in life are not free! I’ve been browsing the web for MAC Wholesalers and discovered the website macmakeupwholesale.com which seamed to good to be true, so i searched for reviews. Fortunately i found this site which assisted a lot. Thanks for the heads up! Also, if you don’t mind, Can anyone email me about good MAC suppliers as well?
Hi, I found this site while doing a quick Google for reviews of this site before using it. As “Duh” says above, many people are delighted to find an equivalent product at a fraction of the price. I see from the comments on this site, is that they DO actually deliver, which is what I wanted to know. I think for things like brushes, it is ideal. I can understand why sites like this that charge people to join up would be very hostile to a cheap and cheerful outlet for these products. If you want 100% guaranteed MAC products, then you won’t mind paying the premium on other sites/shops. However, if you are willing to take a chance, there are great saving to be had.
FAKE FAKE FAKE… My bank decline my credit card because it was the first time I tried to use on this FAKE website. My bank wanted me to verify the information. OMG I was told that the company that I was buying from was Ed Hardy no macmakeupwholesale. I was shocked because I thought I was buying make-up. the mac make-up whole insisted that the bank was lying to me. Be careful people!
OMG I WISH I HAD KNOWN ALL OF THIS BEFORE I JUST PLACED AN ORDER FOR THIS WEBSITE SO I’LL SEE WHAT TERRIBLE THINGS I GET MYSELF INTO =( I USE BENEFITS ALL THE TIME ITS MY FAVORITE MAKEUP BRAND SO I’LL KNOW IF THE PRODUCTS WORK THE SAME OR NOT. I’LL UPDATE YOU GUYS. I DON’T CARE THAT THERE KNOCKOFFS ASS LONG AS THEY DELIVER THE SAME THINGS MY REAL BENEFIT PRODUCTS DO.
WOW
I’ve never used mac product’s because I never saw in the shops in London, but recently I found their official website but products are a bit pricey.
So i decided as many of girls to google for mac wholesaler and found macmakeupwholesale.
Was very surprised by the prices but when i found out it was replica was really disappointed.
Then I talked to advisor online, and it sounded great when she said that all the packaging is original and ingredients are same, and even on label it says it’s made in USA or Canada.
But when I read these reviews I really not going to buy any products from them.
Thanks !!!
P.S Please could you email me mac supplier

I was about to place an order with the wrong people thanks for your help

If you still need help after joining then please email me again. Due to the large number of requests I receive, I am only able to email members personally.
ahhhh i wish i’d read this but it’s too late, i already placed an order! does anyone know if they actually deliver??
Hi, yes I think they do deliver.
Thank you so much. I’m glad that I came across this page before ordering anything from the site. Can anyone please send me a good mac supplier. Thank you.
Hi Nikki, if you decide to join you will find the supplier info inside the members’ area.
Hi I was about to order from them too. Im glad i read this first. Melissa can you please email me a good MAC supplier?
thanks,
Tina
Hi Tina, if you join Cheap Slap you will find all the info you need in the members area.
Glad I read this before placing an order. I had thought that £20 for 32 MAC brushes was way too cheap, you pay that for one brush!
My suspicions are confirmed and I am not interested in fakes!
hello there,
I just placed an order, and I know is fake, I mean I sell MAC and I have to drive to LA to get it and I get expensive eventhough is repplica. I found this site and thought it was great not only because it saves me the tripp but because is cheaper. But after reading all of this all I am concern with is to know if they deliver?? how long does it take??
thanks!
oh i am a numpty, only came by your site after making my order with macwholesale
well i have been to their faq page and as u all know it is stated their that they are not genuine- so my own fault for not reading the fine print…but i had been researching for days humph
now at least they are not just taking my money and me not getting anything for it i suppose…but where do i go from here??? i was planning on selling on Ebay but now i am of the knowledge that it is fake where do i stand legally with wording…also i need to be able to sleep at night so need to be honest.
Am so glad i have since found this site and joined immediately, hopefully i will now NEVER make the same mistake again!
x
I need a good mac supplier thats trustworthy.
Thank you everyone for this info. I am thinking of buying some MAC that I will sell when I travel.
Even though I know they are replicas, as long as they look real enough, I don’t mind.
I just need to know, do they look like real MAC? Do the powders look real? HELP PLEASE! Thank you!
ignorance is what makes you believe you’re getting ripped off with this site.
if you DON’T read what the site says, then how in the world do you expect to know what you’re buying?! the website clearly says that their products are NOT the real deal so i don’t see why all the complaining and judging is all about. just like there are people who like the good real genuine stuff, there are those who look and don’t mind getting replicas of name brand products. my point is, READ before you order!
i want to know what are you people complaining about?
can someone tell me exactly what is wrong about the product!
Thank YOU!
This website is just like buying knockoff designer bags or jewelry. Girls are paying for the label not the makeup and a lot of us don’t have a problem with that.
To someone who has ordered though. Did you get your product? and how fast?
Your buying the products for just a fraction of the cost. Do you think MAC eye shadow that cost 3 dollars are genuine? Then you can here to complain about your ignorance.
You Americans invented capitalism and globalization. Now, other folks are taking advantage because of your consumeristic nature. When will you stop?
OMG… I just placed an order there!
Do they really deliver?
Do Paypal refunds my money?
OMG! O.O
……………….lol……………..
I placed an order there a few hours ago….lol
I email them to cancel the order tho….
Do you think they will refund my money???
Okay, I have heard MANY people say on here that they ended up ordering.. why is no one coming back on and giving reviews of the product. Yes they are knock offs and the websites admits it but I have yet to hear anyones reviews of the products they ordered.
Hi if you look at the comments on this thread you will see what happened to a couple of people (Sinead and Sarah) who ordered from macmakeupwholesale.com: http://www.cheapslap.co.uk/mac-cosmetics-wholesale-warning/
Thanks girl, that was quite disturbing!
to be honest if it sounds to good to be true then it is, and if you really cannot afford MAC prices then you should save you’re money and shop at other places… there is no point buying a fake at all, not only do you not know what’s in them but the quality is usually appalling. buy only from the MAC website or fromecounters etc, theres no such thing as a MAC wholesalers.
Hello, I do not mind getting replicas.
I am planning on buying a bunch of powders, could someone please tell me if they look real or not? As long as the POWDERS look REAL and will NOT be broken, I am buying
Unless there are any other problems.. I know they DO send the products eventually so that won’t be a problem.
where is a good website to order real mac products
So Im reading here mostly everyone complaining about their products being real or replicas…lol the web site clearly states that they are FAKES but very good replicas and good quality & will refund if any problems… Im am not on their side by any means its just very annoying to try and find REVIEWS on the website weather its faud or if the delivery time is exceptable and all I get here is a bunch of people complaining about things that could of been avoided if they read the fine print which isnt really to fine they post everywhere on the web site that they are NOT REAL…lol anyways I placed a order with them and chose the option to pay thru Western Union to recieve a 8% discount. They responded via email to contact them to get their billing info and when I try to go to their website, my browser informs me that the page is not found????? WTF so Im very uneasy about it although I havent paid them yet…Im just tryin to research and see if its happpend in the past to any body before? Or get some reviews on their customer service or service in general?
Any info would be great as I dont mind buying replicas but would like to know if Im really going to get them and in a timely matter..
Hi, I am just curious why you would trust a website that is selling fakes, and want to pay them by Western Union which means that you have no buyer protection whatsoever? Your Western Union payment is non traceable and if they do not send you anything there is absolutely nothing you can do. That strikes me as strange that you would want to risk your money like that.
Hey Melissa
is it possible for you to email the website of a good MAC supplier
Thanks,
Nicky
Hi Nicky, all the supplier details are in the Members Area, you just need to join up and log in!!
hi melissa,how much do i need to pay to become a member?are all the suppliers listed from UK only?thanks!
Hi Macy, the cost is £4.95 to join. That’s a one time only payment. The suppliers are all in the UK or the US. I am not sure where you are based – the best ones are in the US although they ship internationally!
I PURCHASED FROM ANOTHER SELLER. EVERYTHIMG WAS SELLING WELL UNTIL A EBAY MEMBER SAID I COPIED HER PICTURE. THEN TWO OTHER SELLERS REPORTED I WAS SELLING FAKE PRODUCTS. EBAY SUSPENDED ME TWICE MORE FROM SELLING. THERE SECURITY PANEL DID A EVALUATION ON MY FEEDBACKS AND THE TWO CASES AGAINST ME AND THEY CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT I’M NOT ALLOWED TO SELL ANYMORE ON EBAY FOR SELLING FAKE COPIES. NOW I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I’M STUCK HOME IN A WHEELCHAIR AND I ENJOYED BUYING AND SELLING SO MUCH. IT GAVE ME PURPOSE ALL DAY. I’VE SPENT THE LAST MONTH SEARCHING FOR AUTHENTIC AND ORIGINAL WHOLESALE HIGH BRAND PRODUCTS. THEY SELL 29000 PIECES OF MAC AND ONE OF THE ARTICLES I CAME ACROSS QUOTED THAT 27000 ARE FAKES. ANY HELP OR QUIDANCE YOU CAN OFFER ME P WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE. EILEEN BARTELS
Accidentprone; open a new ebay account- and start selling from it. You can have as many accounts you want..
but be careful what u sell, as there is a lot of businesses who dont like fakes..(because they loose money..)
“am wonder why Noone reply to u with answer since August??”
And people stop compliaining about something what is so obvious.. Read info about it, before spend on it.
Mellisa- I would like to try your membership- but i have 1question before- will you refund me money if I won’t be satisfied with membership?
The website clearly acknowledges that they sell “replica” product. So what is the problem, if you r not interested in replica simply do not buy from them no need to trash them as they are not scamming anyone the consumer just need to browse the site for legit n fine print info. This post is actually misleading
Yes of course.
