MAC Trial make up at a MAC store, how does it work?

Question

I have a square / heart shaped face and I am quite slim, and people say I have a small face too, but in pictures, my face makes me look chubby, I have been wanting to go to a MAC store and get makeup done and I heard you have to buy the stuff they suggest, is it mandatory? Please help!

Answer 1

A better choice would be to visit Sephora for a makeup trial. The have a wider variety of brands/prices and you can discuss this with the makeup artist. That way you can get a good look, something you can repeat at home with products you can afford to buy!  

Answer 2

No, it is not mandatory, but it is highly suggested. It is considered rude not to purchase any of the products that they use, unless you dislike the outcome. But don't worry, the products will sell themselves, once your makeup is done i'm sure you will find it hard to resist! MAC offers many great products and for the most part they are reasonably priced!  

Answer 3

Of course you don't have to buy it!!!!

They put the make up on you then they put it on the little card thing and tell you how to apply everything and stuff.

And give you the card.
