For the best result start applying mascara from the roots, wiggling the wand and pulling it upwards along the lashes. Let mascara dry. If necessary add a second or a third coat.

I didn't like it, it's very dry and not waterproof.
I am not satisfied with this product. The mascara feels old and I have to apply it to my lashes 3-4 times at least to see any noticeable effect. And it claims to be a volumizing mascara!
1. Dry
2. Has an old smell
3. It is not visible on the lashes, you need to apply it at least 7 times to make it noticeable.
This product does not lengthen or provide volume. In order to achieve any visible results, you need to apply the mascara at least 2-3 times. The only thing that matches the description is its waterproof feature. It is not only resistant to water, but also practically unaffected by anything. Even after using several makeup removers, black marks still appear on the eyelids in the morning.
I ordered the mascara in the shade Black Brown, so I would like to leave a positive review. It performs its functions very well, it does not flake at all, and it is resistant to rain and humidity. When applied with an eyelash curler, it holds the shape all day long. It doesn't add a lot of volume, but it nicely emphasizes the natural lashes, so the dark brown color is perfect for everyday makeup as a versatile product for eyes and brows.
I didn't like it. Neither the length, nor the volume, nor the color. Waterproofing, indeed, is on point - it's almost impossible to wash off. It also irritates the skin around the eyes - it stings :( But the brush is convenient... Unfortunately, I won't be ordering it anymore.
I bought mascara not here, no complaints about the makeup. This mascara is the worst mascara I have bought. It doesn't add volume, and when applied, it straightens my natural lash curve and everything just sticks out in different directions. After using it a few times, I feel discomfort in my eyes, even though the manufacturer says that "the mascara is suitable for sensitive eyes" (I will mention that I have not had any eye reactions to mascaras from other brands). It is true that the mascara is waterproof and long-lasting, not only resistant to water but also to micellar water and hydrophilic oil, making it incredibly difficult to remove. Removing this mascara took me 20 minutes, and when it finally dissolves, it turns into small clumps that get into my eyes, leaving gray circles around my eyes that are very difficult to remove afterwards. It's a shame to waste money on something like this.
This mascara does not add any volume or length (which is exactly what I was looking for), it only subtly enhances natural lashes. I have sensitive eyes: wind, cold, or eye cream make my eyes water, causing minor smudges to appear under my eyes (I only apply mascara on my upper lashes), but it does not flake. There are clumps formed on the brush itself, which transfer onto the lashes during application. It is easily removed with oil-based cleansers.
The mascara is almost dry and crumbly. After half a day, dark circles appear under the eyes.
I don't know where it claims to be waterproof, but even when I specifically chose a waterproof option in the filters, it wasn't on the list. I should mention that I didn't buy it here, so I don't have any complaints about the makeup itself. The mascara is not waterproof, although maybe it's just me, but I have to spend at least half an hour removing panda eyes. It's a real nightmare dealing with this smudging, which is why I specifically looked for a waterproof one. However, as my experience showed, even a cheap non-waterproof mascara turned out to be more water-resistant.
The best mascara in my life, super waterproof, fits amazingly on the lashes, and lasts the whole day. I have tried many waterproof mascaras, but nothing compares to this one. I have been buying it not for the first time, so I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it!
Terrible mascara. It doesn't color at all. I ordered the black one. A complete waste of money.
I didn't understand what's wrong with this mascara. I ordered the brown one, opened it, and swiped the brush on my lashes about 20 times - whether I was applying it or listening to the radio... Zero effect, it doesn't color at all. It feels like they forgot to add the actual mascara. Either it has dried out completely or there's practically none in there.
This is not the first time I've bought Max Factor mascaras. The classic ones always color well, although they also have their downsides. I once bought a chubby waterproof black one from Max Factor, it colored well at first but quickly went bad, but at least it was there...
But here it's just empty...
After reading advice online, I added castor oil, and the mascara started to color a bit, but I still have to wiggle the brush to get rid of some clumps, as if it's 4 years old.
Doesn't this batch go through some kind of quality check before being sold? It's clearly not fit for use.
This is the most amazing mascara! I have purchased it countless times. I bought it in Ukraine and Poland, and then again on Make up. The quality is the same everywhere. I have deep-set eyes and all other mascaras leave prints, but not this one. Plus, I don't like silicone brushes, but this brush is the best, it applies the mascara perfectly and doesn't clump the lashes. You can even go to sleep and wake up in the morning without looking like a panda. I have tried so many mascaras, from cheap to very expensive ones. I have settled on this one and I am satisfied!
Personally, I love it! I have oily skin and nothing smudges or smears. I can even shower and sleep with my makeup on. The only way to remove it is with a two-phase makeup remover. It's an excellent value for the price. I bought it to wear to work and it never let me down. I don't understand how it can smudge or come off for others unless it's expired or frozen. So, definitely 5 stars!
This mascara is absolutely useless, it doesn't color anything. Whether I applied it or not, the effect was the same.
I ordered it for the first time. My impression is that the application of the mascara is very easy and comfortable! The brush is very convenient and separates the lashes nicely. I'm glad I found a good mascara. I haven't tested its waterproofness yet, but it comes off easily with micellar water. I recommend it to those who want to achieve a natural look for their lashes.
I had no idea that mascara could be this bad. I got the brown one for a natural makeup look, but my lashes look worse with it than without it.
Probably there is no worse mascara out there.... There can be no talk of any triple volume.... I didn't like it at all....
I want to leave a review because opinions differ, and that's normal! I bought this mascara specifically to wear with a mask, as it's a common problem for us girls that regular mascaras tend to smudge on the upper eyelid. This mascara does its job perfectly. I have hooded eyelids, but the mascara doesn't smudge. It performs excellently under snow, rain, and wind, and lasts until evening. I remove it with a waterproof makeup remover. I still don't understand why people expect a basic mascara to give them "false lash" effects.
I tried this mascara for the first time and I was really satisfied. It is truly waterproof and gives a natural look. I think it is really cool and I will definitely buy it again.
The mascara is simply not visible on the lashes. It is absolutely terrible.
I have been using this mascara for several years. I give it a rating of 5. However, I am giving the store only one star for their services. I left the package at the post office, and they sent me the mascara without the sticker containing information about the product and its expiration date. The lid was not sealed, so there is no guarantee that the mascara hasn't been opened.
This mascara is great. It really stays on all day without flaking. It makes lashes look very natural (no drama here). It removes easily with micellar oil without leaving a panda effect. It doesn't irritate sensitive eyes.
Waterproof? - Yes, definitely. It easily withstands both snow in the face and tears.
Thanks to its waterproof formula, it holds the curl of the lashes perfectly, even when using eyelash curlers.
As for the downsides:
- The shape of the brush doesn't penetrate between the lashes and doesn't coat the "back row," the ones towards the eyelid.
- The mascara formula is liquid, making it very easy to accidentally touch the wet lashes to the eyelid.
- The lashes turn out to be average, sparse, although they are quite long.
It is removed like any other waterproof mascara, with oil (sunflower or olive) or a dual-phase remover.
I really liked this mascara, it comes off easily with special removers. It lengthens my eyelashes very well, making them look longer.
Terrible mascara. It seems like it's not dry, but it applies very poorly. It's impossible to remove. You practically have to peel it off. It's just awful.
The mascara doesn't smudge, it's waterproof, and that's its only positive aspect. It's not suitable for people with short and small lashes. It doesn't lengthen the lashes well, and there's almost no volume. I would recommend it more to young girls who are starting to emphasize their face.
I am disappointed with this mascara. It is very liquid, and while it dries, it manages to smudge all over the eyelid. Then, try removing it... Also, my eyelashes look thin and sparse after using it.
Terrible mascara. It provides no volume and clumps the eyelashes. It's really not worth it at all. Additionally, it smudges on slightly oily eyelids. When this mascara arrived, it seemed completely dried out. I didn't like that it didn't seal the makeup and it's unknown if it had been opened before. Maybe it even dried out because it was improperly sealed at the warehouse.
This waterproof mascara is excellent. I often use it during the summer, while my mom uses it on snowy winter days. It paints each lash perfectly, making them look natural and also adding volume.
The mascara is good. However, sometimes it comes across as poor quality on makeup.
I can't complain about my own eyelashes - they are long and thick. However, they don't hold volume well. One makeup artist advised me to use waterproof mascara with eyelash curlers to make the curl last longer. This mascara is good, it coats the lashes well, lengthens them, and holds the volume due to the eyelash curlers. It doesn't smudge and doesn't dry out the eyes. I haven't had any issues with removal since I remove my makeup with oils.
Thank you for your response. I have checked it. The production date is January 9, 2012. The shelf life is 60 months. It is valid until January 2017.
However, the mascara is dry and does not provide any color. It has a terrible smell. There are dry clumps on the brush. That's it. I don't know how it turned out this way. It doesn't seem expired, but it's completely useless.
I have always come across liquid and good quality mascaras. This is the first time something like this has happened.
I threw away the receipt, so I can't exchange it. I just hope I won't have such bad luck in the future ;))
I will order from Makeup and in the future. This is just the first unlucky experience!
This mascara is great, it truly lasts for a long time. I remove it with a waterproof makeup remover for the eyes, although it can be a bit difficult. I don't wear makeup very often, so I've had it for a while and it hasn't dried out, which is a huge plus.
I really like this mascara, it makes my lashes look amazing. However, there is one problem - it's incredibly hard to remove. If anyone has used it before, please recommend a good makeup remover.
I have been using this mascara not for the first time, and I am extremely satisfied! Thank you to the store for the fast delivery and, of course, for the little gift! It's a pleasure doing business with you! I highly recommend it.
The mascara is incredibly long-lasting! It cannot be washed off with regular soap and water, only with waterproof makeup remover. It does not crumble. I want to thank Makeup for their excellent service and the little gifts they include in my orders. I have placed multiple orders with them.
This mascara is extremely long-lasting, it cannot be washed off without a special remover. However, it tends to flake off and leaves a gray residue by the end of the day. It doesn't come off in the pool, but after contact with water, it starts to irritate the eyes.
At first, I wasn't really impressed with this mascara, but now that it has dried, it provides a really good volume.
