Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara Review

I've used this mascara on and off for years. I even remember my mum using it! I've been asked several times if I'm wearing eyelash extensions when I'm wearing this mascara. It has great pigmentation, doesn't flake and gives great curl and volume. I find that this mascara actually works better when it isn't so fresh-seems to work more effectively when it has dried out a little. I will be continuing to use this for years to come.

This is awesome! Great coverage, full looking lashes - doesn't flake. The only problem is that it isn't waterproof... I think they have a waterproof version though so I must try that! ;-)

Amazing lashes? Yes please!! I'm a big sucker for mascaras, so I am constantly trying out new ones. I came across this one when the maybelline one I was using must of had a faulty batch, the brushes had no bristles :/

So with much hesitation I was referred the product by the lovely girl at the farmers counter. I am so picky with my mascara that when I first tried it I was very quick to put the brush back in the bottle and think "fml" stick with what you know! But I soldiered on anyway!

My lashes are long and there are alot, but they are also thin, so I definatly need a thickening mascara. The calorie mascara kept my lashes sparse, so multiple coats was crucial. I probably put on 8 coats on the top before I was satisfied.

Although it finally made my lashes desirable, I would not purchase this product again. It dried out super fast and then coming to the lower lash line it would burn and sting and make my eyes water! I never used this product on the lower ones in the end.

If you have crazy thick lashes, I think this product would be perfect for your, otherwise stear clear.

This is good mascara. I can get good volumes and length with this one and easy to use. I find some mascara's shape is really hard to use but this one is just right for everything. I can understand this one been poplar so long time.

This is my HG mascara, along with Diorshow. I love the brush on it and find it gives good even coating of the product while curling, and volumizing my lashes. It lasts all day and will continue to use it and recommend it for many years to come :)

I found this mascara good for day time use, for work etc. It separated the lashes and gave them a nice even coat but didnt make them look fuller or longer. I usually prefer a thicker looking lash and had to apply several coats to get this look. Great price for a make up bag staple though.

Wow, I started using this when I had my first job as a Pharmacy Technician 15 years ago (I was 17). It was recommended to me by one of the other assistants as being both affordable and giving great results and she was right! Prior to this I didn't wear makeup AT ALL. EVER. Can't believe I ever did that now. Beautiful, long, dark lashes, no smudging and available in a water resistant option. I've found it adds length more than volume. Mascara is one of my fave beauty products and this one is definitely worth it.

Calorie 2000 is probably my favourite mascara. It gives volume without clumping lashes together or needing to put a zillion coats on. It gives a dramatic look that is still natural. One of the things I like the best about this mascara is that it doesn't go clumpy, even when you get near the end. It's also easy to wash off (although I don't use waterproof so I don't know what that's like). I have, however, worn it to the pool and it didn't run all over my face either. It's great value for money as in my opinion it measures up to some other brands I have used which cost over $60.

This mascara is good and does the job a mascara is needed for. However i am not sure i would buy again because i think i have used better previously. I think it may be the design of the brush which does not apply as well as others do. It applies but does not enhance your lashes for a more lengthy and bold look. I still think it works well and is very affordable. Good brand but just not the best mascara i have ever used but am happy to continue using this product until i run out.
