Max Factor

A slutty girlfriend told me about this maybe ten years ago. A great drugstore mascara?! It was! And boy was it great. But then it was discontinued entirely or at least in the US and I could not see any way to order it. I see some recent reviews here so I will look again. I also love the YSL Babydoll Mascara, but it has been discontinued. If you live long enough, things you love get discontinued all the time. No one warned me about this...

This was a fairly standard mascara for me. It did a reasonable job of lengthening my eyelashes, although I wouldn't go so far as to say it did anything in terms of volumising them. I wasn't overly keen on the wand which was one of those thin, plastic things, as I found it made the mascara clumpy on occasion. It also took a little while to dry down completely once applied. I didn't notice any significant transfer during daily wear, which is a plus for me as most mascaras tend to do that on me (even waterproof ones). Overall though it didn't wow me enough to want to repurchase it.

I bought this foundation after i had a sample in the shop. At the time i had bad sinuses and i could not smell the product very well. Once my allergies cleared up -i went to use the foundation, i pressed a pump on my hand and OMG THE SMELL ---It hit me right away so overpowering -----it was so strong like an extremely soapy floral type scent that i could not bear. The smell sunk into my pores my hand i could not get rid of it - the smell did not dissipate. I hate extremely heavily scented products as i am an asthmatic and it doesn't agree with me. I returned this product right away and got my money back! At $22.95 this foundation was an expensive gamble, i wish i never purchased. A huge warning to anyone who has allergies and hates heavy fragrance - this is not the foundation for you!!!!!!
