If you have a MAC Pro Student Card or are thinking about getting one, they just came out with 5 new Student Kits. Since you can’t view them unless you sign in with a MAC Pro account, I’m sharing it with you here since I was also curious about student kits before I had my account.

I hope this helps for those of you planning to start a kit of your own! I spent around $1000 for my kit, so these student kits may seem pricey but are actually a pretty good deal for the amount of products they come with. You could save more money by making a kit yourself with drugstore items, but if you love MAC, this is definitely something to look into.


Thank you so much for posting this! I am starting school soon and have been looking everywhere for this info on the kits!!!
Hi,
Thank you sooooo much for listing this. I’m starting school in a month and its good to know what is included in the kit that I will be getting. One thing though is that the price of our make-up kit was $800 as opposed to the $600 listed here…. could it have gone up or is that the standard price without the student discount?
Also I was told MAC didn’t make airbrush toolkit nor colors but you’ve listed them here…. is that true?
Hi Anna! I just checked MAC Pro and these kits are still available as of today. The prices listed are what you’ll pay if you orded it from MAC Pro (the student discount is already included in the price). Your school may have other items included in their $800 price, such as textbooks, extra supplies, etc.
The Student Kits I included here were first released in January 2010, so the kits with airbrush products are correctly listed. I don’t think the kits available before then had airbrush products.
Good luck, and have a wonderful time at school!
Hi Wycee, i was wondering if i can only buy this kits online? i mean, if i have the mac pro student card, can i go to a store and buy the products? or is it just on line? thank you !!
Hi Effy,
You can either buy the kits online (you’ll have to sign in first with your student membership info to see the kits) or you can call and order by phone. Here’s what it says on the MAC Pro website:
EXCLUSIVE STUDENT MAKE UP KITS
Preassembled kits are available for purchase exclusively to PRO Student Members only in North America and the UK. Sign in at M·A·C Cosmetics Online to view kits content.
Members in North America can purchase student kits online or via phone through M·A·C Customer Service at 1.800.387.6707 ext. 8555. In the UK, call 0870 034 2676 to order or email promembershipuk@mac-cosmetics.co.uk for more information.
Hello so I found your info very helpful since I am aout to start my classes and the instructor requires us to have a studen kit. thanks so much.
Soooo the price listed on here is the actual cost or is it than minus the 40% off? :/
Hi Christina,
The descriptions for each of the kits listed above indicate “Student Kits are offered at a 40% discount which is reflected in the final price”. That’s directly from the MAC Pro website, so the prices listed are the actual cost with the discount already included (as of the date I wrote this post). Also, only those with a MAC Pro Student card can buy these kits, so if you haven’t already done so, check the MAC Pro website if your school is listed as one of the eligible schools so that you can apply for the card. Good luck!
thanks this helped a lot!!
Hi Holly! You’re welcome!
hey,i was went on the website and my cosmetology school is elegible,but im concerned about how the classes work exactly?i tried looking all over the website and couldnt get an accurate answer..i live in illinois at go to regency beauty institute if that help PLEase Email me at diana_1840@yahoo.com or sanchezdiana@live.com…to go more into depth about the program.
Hi Diana,
I’m not sure what you are asking, since you mentioned something about classes. These MAC Pro Student Kits are just makeup kits you can buy if you are a student attending an eligible school or institution of makeup artistry, cosmetology, hairstyling, etc. (see the application for students in North America for more information). These kits are not tied to any classes. Hope that helps!
Thank you for listing this information. I already finished makup school so its to late for me to purchase the kit. however since I have the MAC PRO card I will purchase individually what I needo build a similar kit…lol
i cant wait to by all the kits
Hi May! Have fun!
I wish the kits were available for regular purchase!!!! I’m not enrolled in any sort of school but would totally love to buy this!!!!
