Advantages: Long and thick lashes! Disadvantages: Takes long to dry, doesn't smell that good
I’m not a girl who likes to use makeup. Unlike my twin, I only use some kohl, lip-gloss and mascara when I go to work or go out with friends or for special occasions.
I am lucky enough to have long, dark thick lashes so any kind of mascara should do for me without hassle!
However, not any mascara does the job for me. I have sensitive eyes, which can get irritated easily. I discovered that problem when I first used one ... ...minutes later, my eyes stared to itch; when they got watery, I started to scratch my eyes (couldn’t help it) and ended up with panda eyes!
I thought maybe I should look for more expensive (well known) brands; they all worked perfectly . . . but again I had that urge to itch and I couldn’t wait to go home to wipe it off!

I am lucky enough to have long, dark thick lashes so any kind of mascara should do for me without hassle!
However, not any mascara does the job for me. I have sensitive eyes, which can get irritated easily. I discovered that problem when I first used one of my sister’s mascaras; it looked good, but a few minutes later, my eyes stared to itch; when they got watery, I started to scratch my eyes (couldn’t help it) and ended up with panda eyes!
I thought maybe I should look for more expensive (well known) brands; they all worked perfectly . . . but again I had that urge to itch and I couldn’t wait to go home to wipe it off! Until I found the MaxFactor brand, I had not found any suitable mascara brand. Since then I’ve used it for years now and I‘m quite satisfied with the results. I used to have to S-T-R-E-T-C-H it (classic look classique) but that variety is discontinued now so I had to look for an alternative within the MaxFactor range. I found one newly introduced to our shops, which was recommended by one of the staff in the beauty shop: MaxFactor False-Lashes Effect. I liked the name and the look was quite different so I paid for it and took it home with me to test it.
It’s big, it’s mighty, and I had my eyes on it!
It is a lot different from other mascaras, coming without a box, wrapped with plastic all over it, reminding me of Cuban cigars!
Actually it looks like a big cigar: the tube is rather chunky and huge which makes it easy to spot on the shelf.
The top of the mascara looks like a lipstick! A bit unusual, but an eye catching design. I opened the cap to see a slightly shorter but blubber rod; at the end of the stick the brush was thicker, bigger - with more than their usual bristles (almost double my older one) pressed tightly together; the bristles looked spiked up and much shorter than ordinary mascaras.
It looked different so I was going to try it and check it out!
Applying the mascara is easy: opening the cap, holding the wand and put it in . . . applying mascara has a particular technique . . . you can’t just colour your lashes and go.
Holding the mascara stick was very easy; the big lipstick cap was designed for a purpose - to ensure firm hold and extra comfort while using it. I immersed the stick once and came out with substantial, gluey black semi liquid substance. Judging from the thickness of the liquid, I presumed that I didn’t need much.
I sniffed. Yes, it has a smell; not a very nice one. Actually, it smells like a felt-tip pen or like a marker pen; I sensed a bit of alcohol there which also made me worry as to whether it was going to irritate my eyes.
Brushing my lashes; waiting for the miracle to happen!
I usually use several coats to get the desired thickness and appearance. With the MaxFactor False-Lashes Effect, I only needed one coat. From the very beginning when the brush touched my lashes, it did wonders!
The small bristles brushed and separated the lashes individually. I was very impressed with the results; I never had separated lashes before (no clogging or jammed lashes like most mascara) and yes, my lashes are longer, thicker and curled up all from one single coating!
It does claim to give you a false lashes effect (as I said before) and it has excellent coverage; it did give me longer lashes, but unfortunately nothing that I would call a ‘false lashes effect’ on me!
I thought perhaps I should add another layer of mascara; the results were even better; my lashes are naturally dark and long and by using it they are even longer and darker. But, I DO have to point out that the more coats you apply, the longer it takes to dry, and the harder to remove it afterwards.
There are two varieties of MaxFactor False Lash Effect: the water proof and the normal one. I bought both as there was a special offer (buy one get the second for half price). The waterproof one also worked quite well when I went swimming: no smudges, blotching or even smearing in water!
Would it work for fair-haired people?
My mum is naturally blond with very fair colouring, with thin lashes and eyebrows so I asked her to try the mascara and see the results for herself. She was stupefied to see her lashes, for the first time long and curled (well not like mine but you can definitely tell the difference) so she kept my second mascara!
Results
I like the results; I had never seen my lashes as stretched or extended.
* Once I put it on, everyone perceived the difference.
* It lasted all day without smudging or crumbling.
* There was a slight tingling, hopefully not an allergy; (maybe I’m just sensitive to chemicals?)
I like it because
• Unique shape; easy to use, professionally designed wand and bristle.
• Excellent coverage.
• Incredibly economical: a little goes a long way.
• Very dark thick shade of black.
What I dislike:
• The smell is very artificial.
• Takes time to dry.
• Takes ages to remove
Prices & availability
It can be found at most health & beauty shops and supermarkets. Prices vary from £6-£10
You can get it cheaper online from some websites with special offers.
Advantages: Everything but the Effect Disadvantages: Doesn't Add Anything
...I came across Max Factors false lash effect mascara in Tesco as part of a deal. Usually priced around £8 I picked this up for £6.50, and thought, considering I need something to replace my Maybelline define a lash (which is awful, see previous review) and it was by Max Factor, but cheaper than the usual price that I would not normally pay, I'd give it a go. Appearance / Packaging ------------------------------- This mascara came packaged loosely ... ...get opened at the till in Tesco) and not in the usual blister pack most mascara comes in. I was a little impressed with this, assuming it means it's one of the items people steal more often, along with pregnancy tests and CD's/DVD's, it must also mean it's a very good quality item to need protecting? - Or so I assumed The tube itself is a stylish black and very bulky design. It's fatter than most and is chunky. I quite like this and makes it easy ...

Advantages: Beautifully bold, thick eye lashes to flutter at everyone. Disadvantages: Not for people who already have very long eye lashes, like me!
...have been a fan of Max Factor's Masterpiece Max mascara for quite a while now, however I don't wear it quite often. A bold mascara isn't suitable for my eyelashes on a day to day basis, just sat in the office at a computer all day, and so I can't justify paying that much. When I saw all the recent advertising campaigns for this mascara, I was certainly drawn in. The claims of 'full lashes' whilst having a more natural look sounded great, and there ... ...I was pleased to see Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara on the list, I could finally try this one without paying for it.
=== Chubby Packaging gives off Bold Images ===
So first impressions, the packaging although quite simple, gives off a sleek and 'posh' image to this mascara. It's quite 'wide' in appearance compared to usual mascara tubes, again giving off images of boldness and volume, important factors in a mascara like this. Indeed the only ...

Advantages: Makes it look like you have LOADS of lashes! Disadvantages: Smudges , expensive
...promised this look is by Max Factor. I had never tried any of their products before , as I wasn't really that into make up before and so would only choose 'cheap' ones , as because I wasn't that much of a fan of make up I didn't think it was worth me buying 'expensive' products. However , over the last few months I have changed my views on make up and now opt for products which will make me look better rather than ones that are easier on my pocket. ... ...around the top with the Max Factor logo on it. The tube is very chunky to look at although isn't particulary a large size ; don't worry it will fit in your handbag.
I 'open' the mascara ; simply twisting the top half and tada the wand pops out. The wand is quite long with a sharp and spiky looking brush. At first , I though 'argh no way can I put that near my eye!' , but it cerainly isn't as spiky as it looks. The brush has a lot of bristles on ...

Advantages: Longer eyelashes Disadvantages: Not quite false lash effect
...This product is made by Max Factor and is there False Lash effect mascara, which claims to give you full lashes yet with a natural look. Each bottle / tube contains 13.1ml.
The packaging and bottle:
Well, before I start this is the biggest and roundest looking mascara tube I have ever seen. It is really chubby towards the middle of the bottle, but this is probably so that it can fit in the huge brush!
The bottle itself is black with a gold rim ... ...different colour if you have purchased waterproof, etc!) It reads FALSE LASHE EFFECT MASCARA in large gold capitals.
The lid is round and gets thinner as you get to the top of the lid, I like the chunkiness of this as it is easier to hold in the hand then the small and flimsy ones, but if you have very small hands this may be harder! At the very end of the lid it is on a diagonal slant which adds detalining and makes it look more appealing and attractive!

Advantages: Doesn't clump or flake, good quality product. Disadvantages: Is a bit messy, takes practice to get the look you want.
== Highly Recommended == I bought this product out of boots, i needed some new mascara because my old one dried out, I mainly picked it because i herd some very good things about it from my girlfriends. I got it from boots only because i buy all my makeup from there but i think the price may be different in the other drug stores. I recommend this product to young women who want that quite dramatic dark eyed look and want bigger brighter eyes. I am ... ...lashes under the sun, known of them compared to this miracle for women kind! I'm sure most women want their lashes to stand out and look sexy because lets be honest here, it makes us feel sexy and gorgeous and most importantly confident! That is why this product is one of those fantastic things you don't come across very often. It's the perfect mascara for those of you who want to feel more sexy and get a rush of confidants so you can walk with a ...

Advantages: The eyeshadow really does last all day, without creasing! Disadvantages: The applicator is a bit weird for me, it's impossible to use it to blend the shadow in.
problem with this eyeshadow, if I had a spare eyeshadow brush lying around I would use that to blend it in, but my eyeshadow brush is strictly for powder eyeshadows, and this one is more of a liquid which might spoil my brush.
Once applied I finished off the look nicely with the MaxFactorFalseLashEffectmascara (also free thanks to Amazon Vine!) and voila, gorgeous eyes!
At the end of the day I looked in the mirror expecting the eyeshadow to have gone into the creases of my eyelids or appear smeared... however I was extremely surprised and pleased to see it still looked as if I had just applied it. The colour was just as strong and it hadn't disappeared into the creases, and this is a huge bonus when choosing an eyeshadow these days, many people using eyeshadow primer's to avoid the creasing effect. There's no need for a primer with this ...
Advantages: Doesn't clag. Disadvantages: Doesn't give the promised 400% more volume that it promises!
' on the eyelashes, given the price of it and the fact that it doesn't give me the promised '400% volume' I'm more than happy to try a different brand.
As for removing the mascara, it isn't too troublesome to remove and doesn't leave a nasty panda-eyed look for the morning after the night before!!
