Max Factor Lipfinity Lipstick & Volume Couture Mascara



I am part of a program called Bzzz Agent. They send out products for everyday people to try and share with others. It's a great program. I've learned about so many cool products for myself, my family and some that just were not right for me but perfect for a friend or co-worker.

Now that the disclosure is out of the way... my latest Bzzz campaign is for Max Factor make-up. I will be honest and say that in the past I didn’t purchased Max Factor products very often, if at all. I usually went to the department stores. Never again.

The photo above shows what came in my test kit...

1) The Lipfinity Lipstick. I hate the smell and waxy feel of most lipsticks which is why until now I've worn lip gloss only. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this lipstick!! I will not buy another brand of lipstick again. Here's why, it's a two-part application: First: you apply the color and let it set for 60 seconds. Second: you cover with the clear gloss. I've used it for 3-weeks and it has never worn off. May I remind you that I have a 12-hour day! 7:15am Coffee in the morning, lunch at noon, dinner and this lipstick is still on when I wash my face at 9:30pm each night. Throughout the day you just touch up with the moisturinzing gloss to keep the color fresh and shining.

2) Volume Couture Mascara. This is the BEST mascara I've ever used. Partly because of the tiny little brushes and partly due to the light feel - it just doesn’t clump. MY PRO TIP: blink while putting on mascara to get maximum coverage. Then use a hairdryer (cool air) and eyebrow brush to lengthen rather than an old-school eyelash curler.

3) ColorGenius Blush #110 Peaches. This is one where you can blend the colors together and get a lighter or darker look as you need it. The blush itself feels nice on my skin. And I have to admit that I like that you just get a big thing of blush and use your own brush. I honestly hate the little tiny brushes that usually come with blush. They are totally impractical and a waste of space.

Now I ask you to post a comment and let me know "What do you think of Max Factor products?"
