Max Factor 2000 Calorie Extreme Lash Plumper & Vivid Impact Lipstick


2 new Max Factor items to talk about. The 2000 Calorie Extreme Lash Plumper and new Vivid Impact Lipcolor.

First up the mascara:

I like this a lot. It lasts on me all day and does give a lot of volume.
My biggest issue is that the brush is huge, very fat and that makes it a bit unwieldy. I did get plenty on my eyelids the first couple times, but it's gotten better the more I use it. What I love is that it did give very long lashes with lots of volume. My lashes were touching the browbone area.

One of my best friends has been using the normal 2000 calorie lately. Her lashes were amazing and when I asked what she had on, that was it. So I was ready to go and get the waterproof version and then this new one came out.

I think all versions in this line seem pretty good. Definitely worth trying.

The lipcolor:

Vivid Impact Lipcolor is a new ,highly pigmented lipstick . Max Factor has always done some great lipsticks . They seems to go for pigment and thats good. These are super creamy, with lots of color. Great quality at the drugstore level.

For some fun you can to to Total Beauty's site and take the What lipstick color are you? quiz.

This is my result- The color is really not me, but the description sure is:

"Your ideal Vivid Impact Lip Color: Ms. Understood -
Wild, moody, unpredictable? None of the above. If anyone understands you most, it's you. Part fashion junkie, part socialite, you love doing your own thing most, like experimenting with signature shades (of the week). Keep this little vibrant little violet-pink number, one of 20 hydrating shades, on call for days when you feel all smiles."
