Mac

MAC Cosmetics began in Toronto in 1984, established by Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo as a Canadian makeup company. The brand name stands for Make-Up Art Cosmetics, reflecting its professional artistry roots. Originally a Toronto-based manufacturer, MAC became part of Estée Lauder Companies in 1998, at which point operations moved to New York City where the company maintains its headquarters today. The brand built its reputation on cosmetics designed with makeup artistry in mind, bringing professional-quality products to a broader audience. MAC's transition from independent Canadian manufacturer to a subsidiary of one of the beauty industry's major corporations marked a significant expansion while maintaining its focus on artistry-driven makeup products.
