Why I love M·A·C Cosmetics so dearly?

Once upon a time, in a sanctions-bond country there was a little girl. She wasn't so little actually. She was a tweenagers, a time when young girls start taking interest in fashion and make-up and being pretty, of course. 


Even though she wasn't an adult, she loved spending time with them (and she still does). She believed that she could learn so much from them. She was such a pry. :) Her favourite neighbour was an old grandma who everyone called Nana. Nana had one daughter who lived in Germany. She also had a granddaughter and her family there. The little girl loved when all these wonderful people came to visit Nana. The youngest, Giovanna and Peppe, were older than her but the time spent with them was one of her most cherished childhood memories. Giovanna was a couple of years older than her, so she taught the little girl things like boys, make-up, fashion, going out... She was her window into the new world of being a teenager.


And, one day, she got her first make-up. Giovanna gave her first ever make-up thingies. It was a German brand Chicogo. You read right, yes. Chicogo not Chicago. There were couple of things, I really don't remember what exactly. But, since then her love for make-up has started. Later, she got more things from this brand But, suddenly, they stopped producing it. It was such a sad moment for the little girl. 


Several years later, the girl found out that Chicogo was bought by a Canadian company, The name of this company was M·A·C Cosmetics. Oh, what a smile did it bring to her face. I , I mean the little girl, was happy again. More than happy.


 I still remember my first purchase in Italy a long time ago. Since then, M·A·C has always been first on my list whenever I go abroad. Luckily, they are always on good locations, so I don't have trouble finding them.


So, as you can see, it's not only a beauty thing. It's an emotional thing as well. :)
