I was in desperate need of new mascara. I usually have 2 or 3 mascaras in my stash from PR packages, but I haven’t received any makeup PR in quite a while so I needed to visit drugstore and buy new mascara. I like buying makeup definitely, but buying mascara is not the most exciting. I usually love buying new blushes and highlighters, but mascara doesn’t excite me that much. I wanted to try something different and I remember that a lot of people like this mascara. This one was on pretty good offer, two mascaras for price of one, so I decided that this one is the one to buy. Today I’ll give you full review and my opinion on Max Factor 2000 Calorie mascara.
Trebala mi je nova maskara jer sam potrošila sve nove maskare koje sam imala. Inače dobijem mnogo maskara u PR paketima, ali nisam primila nikakav makeup PR veoma dugo. Tako da sam morala kupiti neku maskaru koju mogu koristiti. Inače ja volim kupovati šminku, ali većinom kupujem rumenila, palete, hajlajtere, jer je to zanimljivo, dok je maskara nešto što baš i ne volim kupovati, jer mi nije zanimljiva. Željela sam probati nešto novo, nisam željela kupiti maskare koje sam već koristila pa sam se odlučila za Max Factor 2000 Calorie maskaru koju dosta ljudi preporučuje. Ova maskara je bila na dosta dobroj ponudi, jer je bila ponuda 2 maskare po cijeni jedne. Danas ću Vam reći moje mišljenje o Max Factor 2000 Calorie maskari!
Packing is really simple, it looks pretty. I like combination of black and gold, so for me this is great packing for mascara. So this is supposed to be volumising mascara, for up to 300% more volume. I’m not sure where they get that claim, but that’s what I read from packing. They claim that this mascara is smudgeproof. You get 9 ml of product. This mascara has standard mascara wand. It’s pretty simple bristle wand. I usually enjoy these type of wands and they usually work really well for my eye lashes. Now I’ll tell you my experience with this mascara.
Pakiranje je vrlo jednostavno, ali izgleda lijepo. Sviđa mi se kombinacija zlatne i crne, pa je za mene ovo super pakiranje za maskaru. Ova maskara treba da daje volumen, čak 300% više volumena na trepavicama. Nisam baš sigurna odakle im ta tvrdnja, ali to piše na pakiranju. Max Factor tvrdi da se ova maskara ne razmazuje. Dobijete 9 ml proizvoda. Ova maskara ima standardnu četkicu, radi se o čekinjastoj četkici, kakve ja inače volim. Ove četkice su super ako želite izdužene trepavice. Sada ću Vam reći moje mišljenje o ovoj maskari.
First of all this mascara has really strong scent. If I’m being honest it smells pretty bad. Luckily you don’t feel smell when you apply it on lashes. This formula is quite dry. I usually like dry mascaras, but this one is really not my favorite. Dry mascaras are usually really lengthening and they make your lashes look thick and voluminised, but this one doesn’t do that. First of all formula is weird. I feel like it is gloopy and really thick, but it doesn’t stick to lashes. You have to apply so many layers to even get decent lashes. You literally can’t get voluminised lashes with this mascara, it is literally impossible. I keep applying it and it just doesn’t give much volume. I mean it’s fine for daily wear, but it doesn’t make your lashes stand out. Second thing that I don’t like is that this one smudges. They say that this mascara is smudgeproof, but it really isn’t. It is so annoying when mascara transfers on lower lash line, I literally hate that. This one can’t last whole day, it always smudges and looks weird at the end of day. Also one more negative thing about this mascara is that is dries really quickly. I definitely felt like it dried out after few uses, because formula got even thicker than what it was first few uses.
Prvo, ova maskara ima prilično jak miris. Iskreno miriše stvarno ružno, ali srećom, ne osjetite njen miris kada je nanosite na trepavice. Formula ove maskare je prilično suha. Ja inače volim suhe maskare, jer one daju dosta volumena trepavicama. Ali ova maskara stvarno nije maskara koja me oduševila. Suhe maskare inače čine trepavice vrlo lijepim, debelim i dugim, ali to nije slučaj sa ovom maskarom. Formulacija ove maskare je vrlo čudna. Vrlo je gusta i ljepljiva, ali se ne „lijepi“ fino za trepavice. Treba Vam prilično dugo da nanosite maskaru da bi se nešto zalijepilo za trepavice. Iskreno nemoguće je dobiti debele i duge trepavice sa ovom maskarom. Također potrebno je stvarno dugo da se nanosi ova maskara da bi dobili ikakvu dužinu trepavica. Nekada ostanem i 5 minuta nanoseći maskaru, što je stvarno naporno i nije nešto u čemu uživam. Druga loša osobina ove maskare je što se razmazuje na donji kapak. Max Factor tvri da se ova maskara ne razmazuje, ali to nije moje iskustvo. Ova maskara ne može dobro izgledati tokom čitavog dana. Nakon nekih 3-4 sata nošenja kreće se razmazivati i na kraju dana izgleda stvarno loše. Ja mrzim maskare koje se razmazuju, tako da ova maskara uopšte ne prolazi kod mene. Također još jedna negativna osobina ove maskare je da se vrlo brzo osuši. Nakon samo nekoliko korištenja formula ova maskare se osušila, maskara je postala još gušća i teža za rad. Ne znam zašto je ova maskara tako hvaljena, meni je ovo jedna od gorih maskara koje sam probala iskreno.

All in all I really can’t recommend this mascara. I think that there is so many better, cheaper mascaras in drugstore. Max Factor is really expensive in Bosnia, so I’m definitely not happy with this purchase. This makes me really mad, because I could get better mascara by Catrice or Essence for a lot less money. To me this is not a good mascara, but please let me know what is your experience with this mascara if you tried it. That’s all from me today. I hope you enjoyed this review. Let me know did you try this mascara? Do you like Max Factor makeup? What is your current go to mascara that you use in your daily makeup routine? Thank you for reading. Have a nice day! xx
Iskreno, ja ne preporučujem ovu maskaru. Mislim da postoje mnogo bolje maskare, te jeftinije u drogeriji od ove. Max Factor je prilično skup u Bosni, tako da sam za cijenu ove maskare mogla kupiti dvije Essence ili Catrice maskare, koje su inače puno bolje od ove. Nisam iskreno sretna što sam kupila ovu maskaru, ali eto šta je tu je. Za mene ovo nije dobra maskara, ali recite mi da li ste probali ovu maskaru i kako Vam se svidjela. To je sve od mene za danas. Nadam se da Vam se svidjela ova recenzija. Recite mi da li ste probali ovu maskaru? Da li Vam se sviđa Max Factor šminka? Koja Vam je trenutno omiljena maskara koju koristite pri svakodnevnom šminkanju? Hvala Vam na čitanju. Želim Vam lijep dan! xx
