Why is MAC so popular?

[Confused]

Once when I was in Europe I searched for a mac but could'nt find one so why don't they sell it in europe?

AHH... There's too many Scarletts. I keep geting updates on this thread and I didnt even remember having posted on it- and I definitely didnt remember starting this thread.

Now I realize it's another Scarlet- whew for a moment I thought I was losing my mind-ha ha.

I went over to her page to see if she'd logged on recently. I was real worried.

I will be interested in the replies.Incidentally i have a friend who uses MAC and when we were gettiong ready for our night out, i asked her 'Simone, what's so good about MAC'? She told me the reason she likes and uses it, is becuase it has good colors for black skin, and more range than any other brands. I suggested she might like to try IMAN which is also great quality and is designed for all shade of skin from yellow to black.

I totally agree. I myself am African American/Black. I personally don't believe that "Mahogany Cosmetics" is right for my skin. I've always broken out, although the creator/owner is African.../(American). 

On a side-note, I want to ask everyone if not the person I am replying to knows the difference of MAC's foundation "Studio Sculpt SPF 15" vs. "Studio Fix"? 

I'm a new comer to MAC cosmetics (and make-up) products alone,  and quite honestly I haven't had any problem with the foundation except for the fact I've noticed a more "orange" color. I honestly have no clue. I mean I'm using a Target $1.00 "foundation brush" from E.L.F. and I was thinking about severely upgrading to MAC brushes this coming holiday season. Could I have put on more foundation then needed? or the brush alone screams for help?

By the way, I'm extremely if this is in the wrong thread.
