Weird and cool.
The powder I use to set my concealer (MAC Mineralize Skin Finish Natural in Medium) popped out of its pan a few days ago. I’m not sure how or why it happened. I’m just happy it popped out in one piece, to be honest.
I’ve used it almost daily for the past four years!
A little dab ‘ll do ya. I use a small amount under my eyes to keep my concealer from scooting, and it works great. Never looks like cake frosting and doesn’t settle into my fine lines.
When I picked up the powder, after my heart resumed beating, I turned it over and found some writing on the bottom.
It says “Made Since 1982” in a typeface that kind of reminds me of The Terminator movies.
I wonder if this is embossed on every MSF pan…
That is so cool, it looks like it came out of a time capsule. Now I want to try and pop mine out to see if it has the same thing.
Haha, how neat but also a little strange! I wonder what it means…
That was the year that the founders started selling their cosmetics to artists, all though they didn’t officially launch the brand and open a store until 1984.

That is so LOST like. Maybe you’ll get a Sawyer selfie on your next one!:P
This makes me want to pop one of my MSF’s out! 😉
These looks like the writing on the pan that the MSFs were baked in…
Now you are tempting me to pop it up and check!!!!!!
COOL! You should send it in to MAC. Maybe it’s like a Willy Wonka deal. 😀
I never would have known that was there!
That’s awesome!!! w
Awesum find Karen.. now u r gonna make all of us to pop MSF’s and check! 😉
That’s good it popped out as one piece! 😉
LOL, what an hilarious post! Quick, put it back before it shatters :D.
Oh wow, this is SO cool! I’m tempted to pop some out and see if there is a hidden message on the other side now 😉
Ladies everywhere are now popping their powders! Hilarious! Live you Karen! Lol
Ha, that’s an awesome surprise! Glad it popped out in one piece. 🙂
LOL super weird yet really interesting! I have several msfs and I wonder if they have the same writing on the back
I rarely eat ice cream in winter…and I’d love to try Sephora!
Bought a new lipstick this week and i loooooove it! Cute raspberry colour 🙂
I have had multicolored hair, but only two colors (black and turquoise)
Today was my be thankful to my friends day! I sent out e-gift cards to my friends for Starbucks! Everyone had a good day!
I depot all of my mineralized MAC eyeshadows and they all say “MADE IN ITALY” in that same font. Kinda wish I had gotten the 1982 one though, since that was the year I was born 🙂
“Made Since 1982″…I live in Toronto (where MAC was born, yay!) and this story made me remember the very first time I saw and purchased MAC products. The two Franks themselves had set up a booth at the Canadian National Exhibition and they had maybe 6 lipsticks and 6 nail colours at the time. Circa…yep, 1982 🙂 Very cool…
That’s so interesting! When I dropped my Candlelight MSF last year, I didn’t notice anything. But now I’m so curious if I just missed it! Also, I laughed unnecessarily hard with the “Fussy Since 2006”! Ohhh Tabs!
You are such an awesome blogger!!
That is so cool and very time capsule-like. I don’t own any MAC yet but I’ll now be tempted to check the back when I do get a powder product. 🙂
