M.A.C named one of its cosmetic collection after the epicenter of femicide, ciudad juarez mexico. An organization that has been a killing field for young women. and a significant number of victims work in maquiladoras — sweatshops that produce items for export.
M.A.C made a public apology and contributed to organizations that empowered women nationwide.
M.A.C public apology:
“We are deeply sorry and apologize to everyone we offended, especially the victims, the women and girls of Juarez and their families. We have heard the response of concerned global citizens loud and clear and are doing our very best to right our wrong. The essence of M·A·C is to give back and care for the community and our initial handling of this makeup collection was not reflective of M·A·C’s values. M·A·C and Rodarte are committed to using these learnings to raise awareness on this important issue and to leverage our unique platform to help the women and girls of Juarez,” said M·A·C President John Demsey
