Recycling MAC containers?

Having made my first MAC purchase today (I know, I know, what took me so long?), the woman told me that I could recycle the container. I'd heard of this before, but assumed it was only for eyeshadows, and I bought an Technakhol liner, so...what's the deal there? Someone enlighten me?

ive never been told that! that's interesting.

I think she meant Back 2 MAC... I would hope that's what she meant!

Back 2 Mac is the recycling program that MAC has, you can return 6 MAC empty containers back to them and you then get a free lipstick, lipglass or an eyeshadow, if you go to a free standing show or you can get a free lipstick from a counter.

I have yet to recycle anything so other members would have more info than me. You can also use the search function for more information.

I would like to add that pretty much anything that has a container (box not included) is a candidate for back2mac.
