Not exactly MaxFactor's pièce de résistance!

Advantages: Good, subtle daytime look, easy to remove
Disadvantages: Doesn't deliver on promises, no volume or definition :(

...you want more volume, Masterpiece Max is also available. You can buy online for a number of stockists and for various prices. It's widely available on the high street too – I bought mine from Boots for £8.80. I think that this is a reasonable amount to pay for a mascara. Final Thoughts Although I think this is a reasonable mascara at a reasonable price, suitable for daytime wear, I feel a bit disappointed that it doesn't deliver on its promises ...
...remain optimistic in my search for the perfect mascara and so, it's onwards and upwards... I've said that I would recommend this to a friend for the simple reason that I have had friends ask me about this mascara and I didn't actively discourage them from buying. For a daytime look, for a subtle, understated look, it is a really nice mascara - nice to wear, comfortable, easy to remove. It has a lot going for it. BUT it does not do what it says on ...

Finally - a mascara that does what it says!

Advantages: Definitely waterproof and you don't lose any of the look
Disadvantages: none

...and one of them picked Max Factor aqualash up. I know that it definitely comes in brown and black, but I am unsure whether other colours are available. I use the black one and was very impressed with the results. I was hoping that it would actually be waterproof, unlike previous mascaras I have tried, and was careful not to get my face too wet the first time I went in the pool as I had never properly tested it out before. Unfortunately I couldn't ...
...by people jumping in and splashing. However, unlike the last time I wore mascara in a pool I did not emerge from the water looking like a panda - the mascara actually worked! And the results were very impressive! Not only did I not have black around my eyes, but my lashes still looked long and exactly the same as before I had entered the water! The mascara is a good all rounder - it does not clog up and always comes out smoothly, obviously it passed ...

Calories That Make You Feel Great!

Advantages: Thickening, Lengthening, Easy To Remove, Reasonable Price
Disadvantages: None!

Introduction Max Factor is an international firm selling cosmetics. Maximilian Faktorowicz founded Max Factor in 1909. Maximilian Faktorowicz was a polish make-up artist who worked for the russian royal ballet. The company was bought out in 1991 by Procter & Gamble Co. Brief Overview Max Factor 200 Calorie Mascara claims: - Enhance your eyelashes by up to 300% - Fatten Up Thin Lashes - Smudge Proof - Can be removed easily Naming Max Factor ...
...2000 Calorie refers to how much thicker your lashes look. Simple really. Packaging The mascara comes in a navy blue tube with gold writing on and a gold rim around the lid. On the tube is written "2000 calorie", "dramatic look", "Max Factor", what the mascara aims to do, the company, the size and product code. The cylindrical tube is about 5 inches long and ½ inch wide. Personally I think the packaging is quite sophisticated, it's not incredibly ...

Beautiful eyes with Max

Advantages: Easy to apply
Disadvantages: Not that waterproof

...This one from Max Factor is one which I have been using now for a while and no reaction at all, well apart from 'are you wearing something different with your eye make up?' Now when my husband asks this question, it can only be a good reaction. Seriously it does flatter your lashes and not in a clumpy or cloggy way, your lashes will be defined and without you having 'panda eyes' later in the day. The brush is a nice size and gets to all your lashes. ...
...black, not a wishy washy one. The other colour it comes in is brown. If you are looking for a not too expensive mascara and one that does produce the effect of having lots of lashes without having to resort to false stick on lashes, this is the one. And 'panda eyes' no more. This is also one to wear and not worry about crying whilst wearing it as it does not run or streak down your face I was impressed with the volume and length using this mascara ...

Max Factor - gives your eyes the X Factor!

Advantages: Looks soft and silky, great value for money
Disadvantages: No applicator or mirror

...this range of eyeshadow by Max Factor. This product caught my eye because the Max Factor brand is well known for good quality and yet the eyeshadow cost less than a fiver (£4.45). I chose the 'burnt bark' colour which is a shiny mid-brown colour. *Packaging* The eyeshadow comes in a small round pot (3.5cm in diameter) which is dark blue and has a clear screw top lid. The packaging is very small and simple making it ideal to slip into your handbag ...
...seem to last a long time. I use mine nearly everyday but still have loads left after a couple of months. The logo did fade off the top of the lid after a short while however and the tub looks a bit scratched and grubby. The eyeshadow does not come with an applicator brush or a mirror which is the only set back, however as I have plenty of brushes already this did not matter to me. *The Product* I found this eyeshadow to be fantastic, it goes on ...
