I’m so sickened by it that I will not be buying MAC or makeup from their parent company Estee Lauder.
Jeez, what next concentration camp victims, twin towers makeup campaigns? They should of had money donated to the cause before trying to capatalize on the victims of Juarez.

And, *simultaneously* a group of UK BLoggers make the same critique. The UK Bloggers also put together an online petition drive to pressure MAC. It’s a story not of one blogger, but of many bloggers working together– which makes it even more important.

Even better, MAC went beyond what the bloggers asked for– MAC changed the line AND created an Initiative for Women & Girls of Juarez, for which MAC will provide ongoing funding an PR support.

So, this is a story not just about recognizing and ending something racist and sexist, but also of getting a corporation to make a real, sincere and meaningful apology.
