Max Factor.Masterpiece Mascara

Advantages: Great,long,lucious lashes
Disadvantages: Some may think the price is too much

...Before I tried this product,I really dont know how I had managed with other brands of mascara. This product really is that good! I think this product came out I would guess about a year ago,but I may be a bit wrong with my estimation. I first saw this product advertised on tele,it tied in with the 'Memoirs of a Geisha' movie,as Max Factor boasted that they had done the make-up for the film. True,the advert for the film and the mascara looked pretty unbelievable as the definition on the Geishas lashes was incredible,but to be honest looked too good to be true. Never the less,I decided to buy some as my usual mascara by Benefit,set me back about fourteen pounds a time and I thought i'd give it a go,as i was nearly running out. So,I went to Boots,seeing as I have an advantage card,I tend to do what shopping I can there...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

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 :(

...volume and definition, I don't think it delivers on either. I was hoping for a more dramatic result, and I don't think the colour is very strong. I tend to wear this during the daytime for a subtle look, and for this it's perfect. The mascara adds a bit of colour and length to your lashes, but nothing major. Even with a couple of coats, the effect doesn't build up that much and I personally my lashes look better with just the one coat. However, I feel let down that MaxFactor don't deliver on their promises. I have the black mascara, and it doesn't create much impact. I said I'd be happy if my lashes looked half as good as the ones on the advert...in all honesty, they don't. Price & Availability Available in Rich black, Black brown and Deep blue, it also comes in a waterproof version. If you want more volume, Masterpiece Max is also...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

Max Factor Masterpiece

Advantages: Lifts Eyelashes, Makes Really Long!!! ..Like False Eyelashes!!...
Disadvantages: Not A Thickening Mascara, What A Shame

...Well, i\'ve gone through every mascara under the sun to be honest, Max Factor Masterpiece mascara looked great on the adverts, \'Look like a Giesha\' ...Even used in the film \'Memoirs of A Geisha\' Kool!...So...I Buy it, Fairly Cheap, ...From Memory i think it was about £6.99 (from memory remember) The Yellow Rubbery Bristles Make It Sooo Easy To Apply, Non Clumpy!! (For Once In My Eyelashes Lives), And Veryy Long! ..Lifts Eyelashes Making Them Look Amazing. Bad Points: (In my opinion) As i am a Reallll Makeup Lover..I Like My Eyelashes To Be Extremely Big Bold And Outstanding,, The Only Thing I Didn\'t Particulary enjoy with this mascara is that it wasn\'t a thickening mascara,, Ok some people don\'t neccesarily want a thickening one, but this is for my eyelashes. I Really Do Reccomend People to Buy These New Mascara...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara Waterproof

Advantages: excellent coverage, increases volume and length, holds curl, great price
Disadvantages: removal is a bit time consuming!

...Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara I have tried many mascaras over the years, expensive ones, cheaper versions, until I finally found this, Max Factor Masterpiece. I opted for the waterproof version, in black. The mascara was on offer at the time in Boots so cost me around the £5 mark, if I remember rightly. The mascara itself is in a gold tube. The brush is fantastic, nice in size and I feel that it grabs the lashes perfectly, even the corners, without too much fussing about. Sometimes I like to wiggle it through to get an even better coverage. The formula is excellent; no gloops or clumps at all. The colour is rich and makes the lashes really stand out, even after just one coat. I usually only apply 1 coat, I have tried 2 and it does make the lashes feel a little heavy, although in my opinion you don't need more than 1...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

Pucker up with Max Factor!

Advantages: Stays on and refuses to budge
Disadvantages: CAn cake on the lipts if your not careful

...it's time to move on from lipstick covered teeth yet! All in all this is a must have for the party season and has many more positive points than negatives, I for one won't be using anything else and I'll just remember that after a few hours I need to use the top coat and I'm away! I can't live without this product and even my Mother owns one or two of them now. If you don't believe my claims nip into a chemist and try a tester if your not brave enough to put it on your lips draw a line on your hand and leave to dry a minute then try removing it?! Case closed lol PS! Boots have an offer on, spend £12 on Max Factor get free goodie box and in TK ax you can get 4 lipfinity lipsticks for £10 in a case (regular size) and in TJ Hughes they have limited colours but are £2! It really pays to look on markets and in bargain buckets you...

Review of Max Factor Lipfinity

MaxFactor Masters Made a Masterpiece of Me!

Advantages: Easy to apply, quick drying and doesn't clog the brush, your eyes or the bottle!
Disadvantages: None

...way home from work. Many's the time I used to get on the bus to bewildered stares from old women wondering if I'd just been on an assault course with the British Army! Masterpiece Max is also very delicately perfumed. I know it doesn't matter much because you can't smell it once it's dry but whatever helps in the application process huh? Plus I used to hate that really waxy smell of Maybelline's Mascaras (even though I love the rest of Maybelline's products)! The consistency of the liquid is alot thinner than you'd expect when you compare this to No. 7 (expensive brand) and even Clinique! Saying that, it's not of water-like density though. Thinner than cream but easily applicable and doesn't dry up around the top of the bottle into big black clumps of mulch! Out of ten I'd definitely give this a ten. The first MaxFactor mascara I...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Max Mascara

Masterpiece Max Mascara does wonders for your eyes

Advantages: Makes your lashes longer and fuller
Disadvantages: A bit smeary when applying

...I have had my fair share of mascaras like most women but this one by Max Factor is definitely up to the task. I don?t have very long lashes and they point mainly away from the eye rather then up. By using an eyelash curler and then the mascara, my lashes look longer and fuller. Application The first time I used it I thought it was very smeary and had to apply more than one layer to make it even. By applying it multiple times I got the ?longer look? as the product promises for your lashes but by only applying once the mascara lacked in making my lashes longer and fuller. After a few times using the mascara it got easier to apply because the brush was no longer unused and I found the right technique. Despite this the mascara did perform as promised. All that is needed is a little patience and precision. Some mascaras do tend to lump...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Max Mascara

Masterpiece Mascara

Advantages: Fuller looking lashes
Disadvantages: not cheap

...Like most women I have tried my fair share of mascara's over the years and have been quite happy with the Maybelline Great Lash mascara for some time now. I try to (if I remember) replace my old tube of mascara every 6 months, but this time instead of buying my normal replacement tube I decided to try Max Factor's Masterpiece mascara, probably largely swayed by the adverts (the one with the girl from Memoirs of a Geisha), to see if it was any better, plus it was on offer in Boots at the time which I must admit was the final deciding factor. I think it normally retails at £8.99 for a 4.5ml tube which for me is quite expensive. It comes in three colours: Rich Black; Black Brown and Deep Blue. I tried Rich Black. The blurb claims that the new iFX brush that comes with the Masterpiece mascara is the first of its kind. It is designed to...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

A Masterpiece!

Advantages: Great lash definition, Doesn't irritate eyes
Disadvantages: Price, only good for 6 months

...brush of this kind. Basically this brush, rather than being a toilet brush design is a brush shape but it has individual spikes to coat the lashes, rather than to simply brush them with colour. HOW DOES IT WORK? MaxFactor has used thermoplastic elastomer technology to facilitate their new brush technology, not quite sure what this is to be honest! The brush has flexible bristles which are tapered to one end, ensuring you can coat your lashes fully, getting into the insides and corners of your eyes. The bristles are also quite separate from each other, which are supposed to enhance each individual lash, thus creating a striking appearance. THE PACKAGING The packaging in not dissimilar to Yves Saint Laurent packaging, it is all gold. The lower tube which contains the mascara is a gold tube but this inner tube is encased in a clear...

Review of Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara

Masterpiece lashes.

Advantages: Looks Good all day
Disadvantages: Can Clump

...Masterpiece Mascara was recommended to me by a friend who had bought it and really liked the effect it gave her lashes. She had found it really lengthened her lashes and gave volume without clumping. As I was in need of a new Mascara and quite keen to try this I decided to stop at Boots on my way home from work to pick one of these fantastic sounding Mascaras up. I would normally spend around £15 for what I had always felt was a relatively good Mascara so I was really pleased with the £8.99 price tag this Mascara carries. This Mascara also retails at other well known pharmacies and at all Major Supermarkets and seems to retail at roughly the same price in each one. The Mascara its self is packaged really well and looks far more expensive that previous offerings from Max Factor. It is in a dull gold coloured plastic packaging...
