This has me worried, I sometimes buy make up off e-bay, although not for ridiculously low prices...mostly designer samples that say Not or Sale. I hope they're genuine, but one never knows!

    was the picture actually of part time teacher Mandy, 48, being quietly smug, or does the real Mandy now have to go around with a bag on her head?

    how can this sort of thing be a surprise to anyone?

    Well I suppose some fakes are obvious...ridiculously cheap make up from Hong Kong is a bit of a giveaway. But some UK sellers peddle fakes too, and they look exactly like the real thing. I can see how someone could be fooled.
