What Is a Fanlisting?

"A fanlisting is simply an online list of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join. There are no costs, and the only requirements to join a fanlisting are your name and country. Fanlistings do not have to be large sites (although some are), they are just a place where you can sign up with other fans. TheFanlistings.org is the original (but not official) web directory for fanlistings, dedicated to uniting the fans." -thefanlistings.org

M.A.C. Cosmetics

Makeup Art Cosmetics, better known to most as M·A·C, is a brand of cosmetics.

In 1985, MAC was established in Toronto, Canada by its founders Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo.

Toskan was a make-up artist and photographer, while Angelo was a business man. They both recognized the missing element of a versatile and reliable cosmetic to be used in fashion photo shoots. The intense lighting used and glare from it caused a lot of make-up to be lost in photography, so the two set to develop a line that was strong enough for these photoshoots and broad enough to provide new colours and products for make-up artists' creative use.

Co-founder Frank Angelo died on January 12, 1997.

M·A·C has 3 social initiatives, The M·A·C AIDS Fund founded in 1994, M·A·C Cruelty-Free Beauty and Back to M·A·C Recycling.

MAC is now owned by Estée Lauder Companies and based in New York City.
