It's been on my to grab list since I first read an exclusive review back in December 2013. So what is it? Only the hottest mascara product of 2014 - Max Factor Excess Volume Extra Impact mascara.
The mascara uses a unique formula that helps to really boost and volumise lashes. With one end designed to volumise lashes and the other end to add a shiny lash holding lacquer, the product is designed to last.
On applying the Volume section I was surprised at how thick and lengthened my lashes were almost as soon as I started to apply the product. I applied several layers to both top and bottom lashes, and it's recommended to apply whilst the mascara is still wet. I did find the first mascara made my lashes really sticky and they seemed to stick together and clump a bit. After the volume mascara I added the unique lacquer to add a intense black colour and seal the volume in. Despite applying several layers I don't feel it really made any difference to my lashes and they looked the same as when I applied the first mascara.
The one big downside to this product is its difficulty to remove. The ingredients used really make the mascara 'stick' and you have to rub a lot to get this product off at night. At £12.99 this is one of Max Factor's more expensive products and with its difficulty to remove it does let the product down.
I give it 3/5.
Get yours at Boots
