I wasn't born with long, luscious lashes so whenever there's a new mascara in the market which promises to make my lashes appear more vava-voom, you can bet I'll be all up for it. I am almost done with my second tube of the Lancome Hypnose Star Waterproof Mascara and though I still have another Lancome mascara in my kit, I wanted to try something else. Probably something that doesn't come with a hefty price tag (Lancome costs Php2k a pop!) so just in case I'd end up loving it, my wallet won't end up crying. Haha!   So when I got my July Glambox , and found this Max Factor Excess Volume Extreme Impact Mascara (such a mouthful, whew!) in it, I was just too happy. I've read a lot of good reviews regarding this mascara and I had high hopes that this will work great for me too! Max Factor Excess Volume Extreme Impact Mascara  (Black) As per the brand's website, this mascara has the combination of a volumizing base and an intensifying lacqu...

I've always loved Max Factor.  My first product from them is the Pan Stik foundation and I can still remember how amazingly it can cover my nasty blemishes when I first suffered from adult acne years ago.   I also used their Lipfinity, mascaras, eyeliners and even their nail polish! Their Face Finity liquid foundation is one of my favourite foundation, as it is a 3-in-1 product: primer, foundation and concealer in one! (Read my review here ). Max Factor has a lot of great products, but imho, it is one of the underrated brands out there.  Some also think the brand caters to the  older mature crowd.  Maybe because their colour palettes are mostly classics?  Well, with the most recent collection called the Wild Collection, they are bound to change their minds. The Wild Collection,  Max Factor's boldest and most vibrant collection yet. The collection, consists of the Wild Shadow Pots, Wild Shadow Pencils and the Wild Mega Volume Mascara , ...

Are you always in a hurry in the morning?  Well, I always am.   (laughs)   Aside from waking up late, I move just a bit faster than a turtle and on top of that, I have a looot of beauty rituals to do.  It usually takes me an hour and a half to prepare, that is if I won't be doing my eye makeup.  Add another half an hour if I do.   ^_^ So it's always good to find something that could cut my prepping in the morning even for a few minutes.  That's why I love my one of my most recent purchase, the MaxFactor Facefinity All Day Flawless 3-in-1 liquid foundation:   MaxFactor Facefinity All Day Flawless 3in1 Liquid Foundation It's a Primer, Foundation and Concealer in one. It comes in a glass bottle (be careful not to drop!) with a working pump. I find MaxFactor's foundations to be on the pinkish side that's why I had second thoughts of getting this foundation.  But curiosity won!  I got the closest to my ...

The weather's messed up again.  It was scorching hot yesterday afternoon but it rained like crazy in the evening...does that mean summer has ended already?   ^_^ Anyhoo, here's something I wore to get my mood hyped up despite the wonky weather: K-Palette Real Lasting Eyebrow L'oreal eyebrow pencil MAC brow set in Girl Boy MAC eye shadows in Aquadisiac (lid) and Sweet and Punchy (crease) K-Palette 24Hr Real Lasting Eyeliner in Black (new formulation) K-Palette 1Day Lash Perm Volume Mascara Max Factor Facefinity liquid foundation in Sand Benefit Fakeup concealer in Medium Revlon Age Defying powder Sleek Contour Kit in Medium MAC Betty Blush in Cream Soda MAC l/s in Please Me + Peachstock Yay or Nay?

Have you ever worn orange red-toned eyeshadows?  For a time, I stayed away from them because they can make the eyes (or worse, the face) look swollen and tired. When used properly, these eye shadows can still make you look fresh and fab without having to look clown-y or haggard. For today's FOTD post, I used orange red-toned eyeshadows for my lids and gave it a smokey look by blending it with a sheer pink eyeshadow: K-Palette Long Lasting Eyebrow L'oreal Eye Pencil In2it brow powder MAC Brow Set in Girl Boy MAC eyeshadows in Coppering + Firecracker (lid) and French Cuff (crease, tearduct and lower lash line) K-Palette Long Lasting Eyeliner K-Palette 1 Day Lash Perm Volume Curl Mascara Obagi ZO Oclipse Primer + Sunblock MaxFactor Face Finity Liquid Foundation in Sand Kanebo Mineral Powder Foundation  Sleek Contour Kit in Medium MAC Beauty Powder in True Romantic MUA Boom Lipstick in OMG Make sure to even out your skin, ...

Honestly, I didn't know that Max Factor has nail polishes too!  I've been a fan of some of their stuff: eyeliner, mascara, powders and of course, their lipfinity lipsticks.  It's one lipstick that really stays put, most especially for somebody who tends to lick their lips a lot (no pun intended). So when I heard that they will be launching their new Glossfinity High-Gloss nail colors, I just knew I had to check it out. Max Factor Glossfinity Beautiful long lasting glossy nails have become the modern day beauty must-have, delivering the perfect finish to any stylish look. Now women can achieve salon-style nails thanks to Max Factor Glossfinity’s patented formula, which is high gloss performance wear with care: a resistant formula that improves film adhesion, prevents chipping and which comes with improved fluidity for an even stroke-free coating. NEW Max Factor Glossfinity comes in 16 shades: Snow White, Desert Sand, Sugar Pink, Candy Rose, Angel Nails, M...
