I was passing by Superdrug the other day and went in with no actual intention to buy any stuff. But then I am crazy about lipsticks and before I knew it my legs carried me to the aisle where the lipsticks are displayed. I tried innumerous colours on the back of my hand from different brands and before long the back of my hand started looking like it was badly mangled with lots of blood! Ha! But who cares! (Or at least that's what I thought then !!)
And then I saw something which caught my eye! It was Max Factor's very sleek looking lipstick with that come-and-test-me look. And I did try the tester. And immediately went on a maddening spree! I liked almost all the ones that I tried but the one I chose finally was a deep red-brown lipstick-Max Factor Lipfinity 108.
The sad part about this lipstick came when I tried to wipe it off the back of my hand.It was a nightmare! Becoz just by wiping the area with a tissue definetely did not help! Caught me totally unaware because I really didn' t think it would stay on like that! There should be a warning on the cover and on the tester which should inform would-be-testers to beware of this well before they try it on their hands. Then I really did care how my hand looked! I got quite a few stares from passers-by...
Colour ======
There is a wide variety of colours to suit different skin tones. Rich,creamy , easily slide-on to give a smashing effect!
Application ===========
This is the first time that I am using a lipstick with an applicator. Naturally, I was pleased with the ease with which I could do my lips. This allows me to do my make-up in a jiffy . I use a lip-liner first to outline my lips and then fill in the colour with the applicator. I then use the gloss after the lipstick has dried. And voila ! I am ready to go!
Price ===== I would say that it's a bit on the costly side but well worth it. It's priced at £9.99 and worth the meat.
Special Ingredient ==================
It contains Permatone,a revolutionary color bond complex. It is a gel like substance that supposedly moves with the skin.
Remove with ===========
Maxfactor Remover is recommended to remove the long-lasting lipstick. But I prefer sticking to my coconut based cream. It comes off quite easily with it.Advantages: ==========
I wasnt sure if any of the colours suited me - maybe i should take my regular colour with and see if i can match it up!

I use no 107 and I think this stuffs great. My mum recomended it to me. I totally agree with you, it's worth the £9.99 but getting it offs a nightmare! Still, it does come off after a while. Great op! Mel :)xxx
