Max Factor Lipfinity

Advantages: Lasts for up to 12 hours
Disadvantages: Fairly expensive and the balm will run out before the colour

...the internet I came across Max Factor Lipfinity which claims to last for up to 12 hours. I decided to pop into Boots and have a look at the colour range but before I could get anywhere near the display I was accosted by the Max Factor sales lady who interrogated me on what product I was looking for. After explaining my need for a long lasting lippy for wearing at the swimming pool, she sat me down on a stool in the middle of the shop (not at all ...
...a couple of seconds. She then trotted off to the lipfinity display and grabbed a tester in what looked like a really dark brown colour. She obviously realised that I did not look impressed by her colour choice but stated that she was a trained make up artist and asked me to trust her and see what I thought of the results. Oh what the hell, I was already sat on a stool in the middle of a very busy Boots store, feeling like a complete berk, so why ... Read review

Advantages: Lasts longer than most, great colours, 2 colours last two months
Disadvantages: Appears expensive initially so could put buyers off, dries lips out

...hadn’t heard of Lipfinity from Max Factor then – priced at £9.99 from most supermarkets and pharmacies this product is a must have for any one in the public eye (oh that makes me sound famous!) or for anyone who wants a Catalina style pout (umm maybe that’ll put you off!!!). ~ ~ PRICE AND AVAILABILITY ~ ~ I have heard recently that many local independent pharmacies are reluctant to stock Max Factor products as the minimum order requirement is £2000 ...
...it is gold with the max factor logo. Inside you will find a 23ml or 0.07 fluid ounce colourant which Max Factor term as ‘Paint for lips’, you also receive a 1.9gor 0.06 ounce stick of moisturising top coat (Vaseline in common terms! Oops bet I get told off for that!) The presentation box is in line with the £9.99 price tag. If like me, you like to get value for your money, you may be suitably impressed and having had the product personally recommended ... Read review

Advantages: Colour that lasts all day, lots of shades
Disadvantages: Very drying for the lips, expensive

...about the amazing Lipfinity by Max Factor which promised to stay on all day. Was it too good to be true? Claiming to be a semi-permanent cosmetic, Lipfinity is actually in two parts – the lip paint and the moisturising top coat. It can be recognised by its unusual (for a lipstick) 5 inch gold box. The shade is clearly displayed on the top of the box, but I have found them to be a bit darker in use than on the box, so try them out on your hand or ...
...as they do not come off easily and you will end up with a rainbow of shades over your smackers. Depending on where you buy them from you can find up to about 15 shades, but only a few are light colours. Many are definitely for evening wear. Lipfinity is available from most high street chemists such as Boots and Superdrug. I bought a shade called Delicious Delicieuse (170) which looked like a dusky pink colour and I paid £9.99. When you open the ... Read review

Advantages: Seriously long lasting, Nice colours, nice packaging
Disadvantages: Drying effect, A bit pricy, limited range of shades

...long. Lipfinity, by Max factor, is paint for lips. Sounds rather scary when you put it like that doesn’t it? Well don’t worry it isn't scary. It comes in a pale gold box that looks very classy and contains too bottles the lip paint and the moisturising topcoat. The lip paint has a clear section where the colour is kept and a long golden applicator wand for, well applying. It looks rather stylish too. The applicator is a soft pad style thingy (I don’t ...
...I haven’t found there to be much of a problem with overloading, a quick wipe on the rim of the bottle usually ensures that the right amount of lip colour is on the pad when used. On application you apply a thin coating of colour to your lips and wait for it to dry. It is quite important at this stage that you keep a steady hand. While my small mistake have not meant much of a problem cleaning up a large mistake will probably mean you’ll have to remove ... Read review

Advantages: Good rich colour which does stay put
Disadvantages: You need a good make up remover to take it off

...had seen all of the Max Factor advertisments for Lipfinity and decided to pay a little extra and treat myself. I bought number 103 and it cost £9.99. There is quite a wide selection of colours, that range from pinks, peaches, reds, plums and browns, and all that's inbetween, so there will be a colour for just about everyone. The products is well packaged in a small rectangular cardboard box (which is goldish in colour), and there is an instruction ...
...The product itself is a two step system, consisting of 'paint for lips' and 'moisturising top coat'. Firstly on dry lips you apply a thin, even layer of the 'paint for lips' and let that dry for approximately one minute. To apply the colour, you use the applicator provided, which is like a little sponge on a stick. At first, I will admit that I struggled a little with this as I did put too much on my lips, and ended up, going over my natural lipline, ... Read review
