The M·A·C Lover Rewards Loyalty Program has three tiers – Bronze Lover, Silver Lover and Gold Lover. For the year in which you enroll in the Program, Tiers are based on your calendar year spend on qualifying products and services, commencing with the first date after your enrollment on which you make a qualifying purchase using your Program membership identification number, and ending on December 31 of that calendar year.
After your first year, tiers are based on calendar year (Jan. 1 to Dec. 31) spend. Your status in a particular tier is good for the calendar year in which you qualify for that tier and the following full calendar year (Jan. 1 to Dec. 31). After that, you’ll need to spend enough on eligible purchases to qualify for that tier each year. For example, if you qualify for Tier 3, Silver Lover, during your first year, you’ll maintain Silver Lover status during your second year. But, if you spend less than $150 on qualifying purchases during your second year, you’ll drop back down to Tier 1, Bronze Lover status in January. The more you purchase, the more covetable privileges you earn and the higher you climb in our three elite tiers.
You are able to earn points by making eligible purchases or taking certain other Program actions. You will receive 1 point for every 1 US Dollar spent on qualifying purchases in a M·A·C Cosmetics owned and operated store in the United States (excluding Massachusetts) or at maccosmetics.com and in addition to these purchases, we may offer more ways to earn and/or accelerate your points from time to time.

For example, if you qualify for Tier 2, Silver Lover, during your first year, you’ll maintain Silver Lover status during your second year.
