Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara

To be honest I only bought this mascara because I wanted to get the free gift when you spent £15 on Max Factor in Boots so needed to buy a second item, but I'm really glad I did. I bought this in black, and it cost £7.99. I have dark lashes anyway, but like them to look longer and thicker and this certainly does the job. I tend to apply two coats to my top lashes and one to my bottom lashes and find that this makes my lashes look great. The brush is a 'traditional' straight one, which I like. The mascara goes on easily and I have had no problems with it clumping or smudging. The one I bought doesn't claim to be waterproof (I'm not sure if you can get a ...  Read the complete review

I have been using Max Factor make-up range for more years than I care to remember and have always found their products to be extremely good. So last week I decided that it was time to renew the contents of my make up bag and in particular my mascara, as max factor do a range of mascaras that promise the most wonderful things e.g waterproof, extra long lashes etc, I was kind of spoilt for choice, after much thought and a lot to do with the bored looking lady behing the counter at Boots, I decided on the 2000 calorie mascara bought two shades, brown and black/brown This mascara comes in three shades, brown, black/brown and black, the packaging is very plain ...  Read the complete review

Always on the search for the perfect mascara, i went looking for a teenage favorite, Max Factor Classic Eyes mascara, couldn't find it (Boots/Superdrug), but there was this 2000 Calorie version... i figured i wanted Max Factor, so i'll have it! I bought mine in Boots for around £7.99, fair price i think although i doubt its on offer often as it is a well established product. Being well established brings me to the first point, this mascara looks exactly the same as i remember it 15 years ago! its a classy navy blue & gold design, but not exactly cutting edge or interesting. Max Factor must sell so much they're scared to change it incase Nana Smith gets ...  Read the complete review

I normally use Clinique Mascara but felt like a change and wanted to alternate between two or so instead of using the same Mascara all of the time. After reading reviews and recommendations I decided to purchase the Max Factor 2000 Calories Mascara, I bought this from Boots for £7.99. The size is generous and the wand as a thick brush, on applying the mascara I felt that it did make my lashes appear longer although after a few more strokes I could see it clumping slightly. Also after applying is finished I felt that it left little marks of mascara above and underneath the eyes where you have blinked. Other than that it was okay but definitely not ...  Read the complete review

At last, after many years searching, I think I have found what must be the only mascara that does not leech on to the skin making me look like a very tired panda. Max Factor's 2000 Calorie Mascara, manufactured by Proctor and Gamble, stays exactly where it is put yet is easy to remove with cottonwool and simple baby lotion or eye make-up remover. I paid the recommended retail price of £7.99 in Superdrug and it is readily available in many other pharmacies and some supermarkets and department stores. This is usually more than I would spend on a mascara but, having wasted money in the past on cheaper products only to be disappointed and irritated at ...  Read the complete review
