Continuing with my Max Factor reviews (my fav brand along with No7) I recently re-purchased this which has to be I think my all time favourite make up product! (I'm so going to enjoy writing about this!) I came across it a few years back after trying loads of different pressed powders and writing this I realised I've never actually used a whole pressed powder and always got fed up of it and binned it before I used this one and now I use every bit lol What It Is And What It's for.... Ok it's called max Factor Creme-Puff. I'll slide in here that its a navy blue compact which is recyclable with gold writing on it and inside is a sponge ...  Read the complete review

I've used a crème puff from Max Factor for many years. For day-to-day use I think this is a very convenient way to get good coverage without clogging up your skin. This crème puff comes in a choice of many different shades. I buy the palest one there is, which is the translucent shade. This suits my skin tone, it being very fair and light in colouring. It doesn't look false or made up and it gives a light and natural looking finish when applied straight to the skin. The cream puff containers haven't changed very much over the years. They have always been circular in shape and made of flat black plastic. The crème puff powder is a solid block inside the ...  Read the complete review

I love foundations and spend quite a bit on them but they are not going to stay all nice and matte without a sweep of powder on the top. Even foundations that claim to be matte and satin will still fade and have shiny spots after a few hours of wearing them. I never really bothered when choosing a powder, I just went for the cheapest one and that was that. But recently I have been getting dry skin due to the change in the weather so I have been looking for a good powder to control this for me. MaxFactor have always been a good drugstore brand in my opinion so I went to their counter first whilst in Superdrug. I had a look at their range and finally came to ...  Read the complete review

I've been looking for a new powder/powder foundation for a while now and after a lot of browsing and reading reviews on Boots website I decided to buy Max Factor Creme Puff. It is only available in one shade called 'translucent' and it costs £5.99. It comes in a round compact made of black plastic. The design has been updated since the photo above and it looks much nicer now, much more classy. The compact is not very practical though as it has a pull-off lid which comes off really easily so I find I have to put an elastic band around it or it comesopen in my makeup bag. Inside there is a piece of plastic to keep the included sponge from being in constant ...  Read the complete review

As most of us girls know, it can be difficult to create your desired look with foundation. A lot of products leave my face looking greasy or sticky, admittedly due to my oily combination skin and not the product itself, but it's still really annoying and something I am conscious about. I have tried so many foundations in an attempt to reduce the problem or make it less obvious at least but I never seem to have much luck. I have tried the classic liquid, as well as drier based mousses but having a lot of dry areas on my face, mousses only seemed to emphasise that while liquids bring out my oily complexion. I'm currently using Estee Lauder Double Wear Light for my day ...  Read the complete review
