M*A*C Cosmetics, a pioneer in professional makeup, presents one hundred looks that epitomize the span of their thirty years as the leaders in high-fashion makeup. Since its founding in 1984 by the Canadians Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo, M*A*C Cosmetics has revolutionized the role of makeup and become a leader of avant-garde and edgy looks both on and off the runway. Their motto-all ages, all races, all sexes-and unique advertising campaigns featuring RuPaul, Catherine Deneuve, Lady Gaga, and even Hello Kitty have helped to inspire experimentation and fearlessness with makeup in the modern woman (and man, too). Blending fashion, beauty, and culture with an unapologetic approach to individuality and self-expression, M*A*C has reached an unprecedented level of worldwide appeal and accessibility. As the ultimate colour authority with an unrivalled spectrum of shades, M*A*C allows for full creative expression through makeup without judgement. With striking images of some of the best and most inspiring M*A*C looks to date, this stunning book celebrates M*A*C with over 200 colour photographs and gives readers the opportunity to delve into the colourful and surreal world that makes M*A*C one of the most highly sought-after cosmetics brands in the world. Review: Bought for a MAC make up fan - Bought as a gift for my partner, she loves Mac make up and really likes the book. Heads up though it is 90% pictures but she still really likes it and it gives a lot of ideas as it pictures the most famous models and make up artists work. Review: Great photography by Miles Aldridge - I've bought this book as an inspiration for creative makeup but the book is much more than that. The photographs by Miles Aldridge are visually striking little stories on it's own. Excellent and inspiring books for MUA, photographers or anyone interested visual arts.

HUGE book, beautiful editorial make up looks
If you're after a good read, this is not the book for you as it doesn't include much text. However, if you love beautiful, polished editorial make up this is fantastic. The images are of such high quality and the (very) large size of this book makes it a lot more than just a 'coffee table' book. LOVE it.

Buy it if you love MAC Campaigns, its a collectors dream
Beautiful make up beautifully photographed..well worth the money it's a book of reference really but it more than lives up to its name. This isn't a how to book, this book covers many advertising campaigns but don't expect instructions on how they created the looks or what the Artist used, juts glorious photographs,

Sad they no longer do this but this book was ...
Mac was the first makeup brand I started to use in college 18 years ago. There was a time where I would only buy Mac! I would collect the lovely postcards they used to have of all there limited edition collections. Sad they no longer do this but this book was a tribute to that. Their campaigns are always beautiful

Worked perfectly as a gift, great quality
Fabulous quality. I bought this as a secret Santa gift for a friend and she loved it. Was able to thumb through it after the plastic was finally open, and the photos are beautiful. It's the coffee table book I hoped it would be for my makeup-loving friend.

The best makeup book I own
The best makeup book I own. Better than Kevyn Aucoin; better than Nars; better than Scott Barnes... simply, the best! It covers MAC campaigns from 2008-2014. All of the photos are high resolution and beautiful. There's a short forward in the beginning of the book, and then a few quotes through out the book from various celebrities and makeup artists describing their relationship with MAC. Great coffee table book and it would make an excellent gift for any beauty enthusiast!
