Relax with a Max

Advantages: Nice flavour
Disadvantages: Artificial ingredients

...Imagine my relief when I found out that Pepsi made a low calorie drink aimed squarely at the male market. Yes I know that it is perfectly legal for us chaps to consume diet Pepsi or diet Cola but I always found it a little embarrassing asking for the aforementioned beverages. I always felt that somehow my masculinity was being called into question if I entered a shop and picked up the diet version of any drink, real men simply don?t consume diet drinks. That is until Pepsi Max hit the shelves. When Pepsi Max was launched the adverts featured young sporty chaps performing all sorts of extreme pastimes such as bungee jumping, skateboarding and BMX racing. That?s the sort of image I want when I buy a drink. Although it?s fair to say my days of BMX riding are well behind me and the thought of attaching a piece of elastic to my ankles...

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

Is Max Mad? Well just a bit!!

Advantages: A classic movie on DVD
Disadvantages: Violence may offend some

..., the person that they hold responsible. The ensuing action is toe curlingly gruesome in parts as the biker gang leave no person connected to Max Kotanski untouched, including his family and friends. . I won't say more here for fear of spoiling the story line for others. Availability and cost My copy of the DVD had been sitting unwatched in the cupboard for ages and I do not recall where we bought it or for how much. A quick search shows that www.amazon.co.uk is selling this DVD for £1.49 new or from 79p used and www.ebay.co.uk currently has it listed from 99p. My Thoughts and Conclusion For a film that first hit the cinema screens in 1979, Mad Max has stood the test of time. The film was as mentioned earlier in the review, the first in the three Mad Max films and Max Kotanski is the archetypal anti-hero. The plot...

Review of Mad Max (DVD)

Pepsi to the max

Advantages: Great Taste , Better than coke
Disadvantages: Might be too sweet for some

...* Pepsi Max * Pepsi Max , as they describe it themselves is a 'Low calorie cola flavoured soft drink with sweetners'. * Packaging * Pepsi max come in a plastic bottle with the pepsi symbol 'engraved' on the bottom along with ridges on the bottle. The plastic label has some shapes which i cannot identify in colours of black and dark blue. The pepsi is written in white capital and the mac is written in larger capitals in red. The pepsi symbol is below. On the bottle of the label are the words in white capitals with a red background ; Maximum Taste , no sugar. The lid is an 'open by hand' screw on lid. It's black and has the pepsi symbol on it. * Taste * The texture of the pepsi is very thin. It's very sweet (sweeter than coke). I like the fact that it's really sweet however I can understand why others may find it sickly...

Review of Pepsi Max

Max Beauty

Advantages: Stays on a long time, bottle lasts a long time.
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive

...Is your skin making your life misery? Do you get days where you just wish you could just walk around with a paper bag on your head? If so, read on............ I have an oily t-zone and am quite prone to the really painful spot, you know the type (ow, ow, I feel like an alien is trying to escape from under my skin, call the FBI and so on)! As I write this I am trying to discourage the image coming into your head, of the writer of this report having a face that you can shine your boots with as it is so greasy and a face like a pizza! No please, don't think that about me, think I have a face you could shine twenty pairs of boots and a face like a monster, that would please me much better, ha! Well, anyway being serious, we all know that no-one really likes to admit to having spots, but we all know that we get them. And why is it...

Review of Max Factor Lasting Performance

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 Colour Adapt Foundation

Advantages: Evens skin tone, looks quite natural, a little goes a long way
Disadvantages: Caused me to break out, encouraged oilyness, didn't stay on amazingly long

...Ah, the delights of teenage skin. Never know what it's going to do next. One day it's dry, flakey and tight feeling, the next you wish you had a spatula to scrape all the oil off. Not to mention oh so stubborn blemishes. I personally have all these things going on, combination skin basically, and I've always had trouble keeping spots at bay. Don't even get me started on clogged pores or blackheads! Don't I paint quite the picture? Anyway, now I've recently started bringing a biiiit more money into the house, I decided it was worth going out and treating myself to a more elaborate foundation. Meandering around all the makeup counters in Boots, I was completely lost. So much to choose from, I can't even decide what skin type I have nevermind what I'm supposed to put on it...so I decided to ask a representative at the Max Factor...

Mad Max

Advantages: a good read
Disadvantages: only some minor flaws

...When I read a review on Andrew Sean Greer's novel 'The Confessions of Max Tivoli' I knew at once I had to read it, the story is as weird as can be: a father writes down the story of his life for his son - doesn't sound weird but dead boring? Well, Father and son are both twelve years old! Weird enough? The plot in a nutshell: Max Tivoli, the first person narrator, is born with a strange genetic quirk, he starts life as a baby trapped inside the body of a 70-year-old man and grows physically younger yet mentally older with the years until he finally becomes an old man trapped inside the body of a child. Max is born in San Francisco in September 1871, the author endows his protagonist with an extraordinary imagination and so he can also tell us about his conception during the night of the dynamiting of Blossom Rock, a shoal in...

Review of The Confessions Of Max Tivoli - Andrew Sean Greer

The Max Taste!!!...

Advantages: Taste
Disadvantages: Sugar Level

...Pepsi Max.... First Of All... What Is Pepsi Max Pepsi Max is one of the worlds finest and best selling soft drinks today!. Pepsi Max is a low - calorie , sugar free fizzy juice delight which is very popular amoung today's children. Everyone loves a bit of Pepsi Max whether it be on a hot sunny day with a hint of ice , or maybe you just feel thirsty. Whatever the way , you won't be dissapointed at how lovely this drink tastes... Althought the taste is wonderful and the price is low , this isn't really the most suiteable soft drink to clench your thirst even though some may think so. Pepsi Max is also bad for your teeth and stomach. The acid levels are quite high in a can of Pepsi Max so i wouldn't suggest too many of these at one time as you may feel very bloated!!!... Pepsi Max Facts Pepsi Max was first...

Max Factor Colour Adapt - Highly Recommended

Advantages: Light to wear, excellent blemish coverage, natural look
Disadvantages: Wears off after a few hours

...Max Factor Colour Adapt foundation is widely available and provides good value for money. The foundation is creamy and feels light to wear, but also offers great coverage of blemishes and flawless, even skintone, providing performance comparable to much more expensive brands. Matching skintone, this foundation gives a very natural look, is easy to remove using cleanser or cleansing wipes, and doesn't dry skin out. It blends easily and the paler shades are great for those with very fair skin. Having said this, however, coverage doesn't last as long as it could, although wearing a powder over the foundation seems to help. Also, the packaging makes it difficult to see how much product is left in the bottle, meaning that I always run out suddenly, without more to hand....
