MAC Cosmetics

I didn’t even realize this MAC location existed! I scheduled an appointment to get my makeup done here for some really fun headshots around Harbor East. I forgot my artist’s name, but she’s Puerto Rican with long hair and wears the same color foundation that I do — NC45! She did an amazing job on my face and listened when I told her all of the things I wanted and did not want. She was also a pleasure to talk to while she was applying my make up. The other girls in here were friendly and at the least, smiled at me and told me they loved my makeup. My only complaint is that the lights are so bright that there were several times when I could only see spots while trying to look in the mirror. (You know those spots/​dots you see when you’re looking into light for too long). My artist also complained about the light, but she did a good job regardless.
I do hate how now, instead of getting $ 50 worth of products for an application, you only get one mascara. Apparently only those who do walk-​ins can get $ 50 worth of products after their application. The difference is, the ones who make an appointment get a guaranteed hour dedicated to their makeup application despite how busy the store is. And the ones who walk in, don’t get anything guaranteed. It sucks, but it’s not this location’s fault that the rules changed.

These girls must work on commission. Went in just for eye shadow application and the artist acts like she didn’t want to help me. I told her I planned on buying products … The store was completely empty! After she finished my make up was so bland like I didn’t even get it done — avoid this location!

Shannon was sweet and very helpful. Got what I wanted, and gave me some great tips. thanks Shannon!

Got my face all painted up and pretty here for my birthday party this past weekend. Although I tried calling a few days prior to the Saturday of my party to make an appointment, I discovered they were already booked. Not to worry, though– the lady I spoke with on the phone assured me that I could still get a walk-​up appointment on a first come, first serve basis.
Being paranoid, I got to the store right after they opened at 10AM to secure a spot. I was told to come back around 1PM when an artist would be available to help me. I arrived back at 1 on the dot, and a super friendly girl named Maria greeted me and sat me down at a makeup station. I showed her a picture of some looks I liked and also brought in the outfit I was wearing to my party, and she came up with the perfect look for me. The whole time, she walked me step-​by-​step through everything she was doing– you could tell she knew her stuff!
At the end of the application when it was time to pick $ 50 worth of products to purchase, she didn’t make me feel pressured to buy an excess of makeup. She simply put everything she used in front of me and let me make my selections.
I would highly, highly recommend this MAC for makeup purchases and application. If you’re planning for an event, call ahead and ask for Maria. She is the best!

I was unsure how my makeover would be considering I didn’t have an appointment and I had to spend $ 50 in products. I’m not going to keep you in suspense any longer. It was an absolutely fabulous experience. Tanya was very experienced in makeup application. She understood my issues and she had solutions. It was my pleasure to buy MAC Cosmetics. I can hardly wait to go back!

I was excited to see that a MAC store opened in Inner Harbor East. I detest going to Towson Town Center. I had a hair appointment at Scene 217 in Little Italy and was desperate to get more foundation. The store was empty and the sales clerk was very aggressive. Instead of getting me my foundation she insisted I agree to buy primer. I told her that I didn’t want primer, that I wore sunscreen. She finally agreed to get my foundation only to find it was SOLD OUT. Then she tried to talk me into another color that was much too dark. Before she realized that my foundation was sold out she offered me a sample of the primer. I was frustrated that it was out of stock and told her I would have to order the foundation online. After this, she took back the offer for the samples. So now I have to wait several days for the foundation to arrive. I would ditch the whole brand if I could find a foundation that worked with my fair skin in another brand.

This MAC store is beside my favorite restaurant in Baltimore, Taco Fiesta, so I pass by it all the time!
One day after finishing my dinner I decided to stop in and see what I could find for oil control. Upon walking into the store, I fell in love with the layout and modern feel of the store. I felt like I just wanted to live in there and play with make-​up all day!
The person helping me was really nice and helpful. She suggested the oil control lotion and loose blot powder to help with my shine/​oily skin. I’m so glad I came in because the loose blot powder was amazing! I don’t really use the oil control lotion so I do not know if it works or not. I have so many facial creams I apply during my regular nighttime/​daytime regimen that I did not want to add another in the mix.
Overall, I love the store and one day when I decide to let go of my precious Bare Minerals, I may try some MAC foundation.

My first time at this MAC store which has been here for 2 years. The place is sleek and organized by the color of the products. The woman helping me was really nice. I totally forgot my wish list of lip colors to buy. I started recalling the colors of the lipsticks. She would name off some of the popular ones: «ohh you mean Tropics, Syrup, etc » One lip color I want was sold out. Syrup. I bought Crème Cup, hence hearing about soo much on Pinterest. Also Crosswires a pretty reddish orange color hearing about it from a Essiebutton video. The lady liked my style.
The deduction of one star is due to have to pay for metered parking which is 2.00 hour but it is nice that whole foods is close by and Anthropologie so what close by makes up for it.

I saw this MAC store out the corner of my eye last week, but they were already closed. It looked so nice from the outside that I had to go back and check it out. I went in last night and was greeted as soon as I walked in. I already knew what items I needed, so I told the girl that was working and she grabbed my items. The interior of this store is absolutely gorgeous! The wall behind the cash register is painted black and has MAC in various fonts all over it. The store is clean, spacious, and well-​stocked.
I really wanted to review this business because it didn’t even exist on Unilocal yet. MAC doesn’t advertise which explains why people haven’t really heard about this location. I’m giving four stars because I didn’t get an service done, I just came in to replenish my regular items.
