Maxfactor Clump Defy Volumising Mascara: Review


Hi guys! I thought I would do a post on my latest beauty purchase - the Maxfactor Clump Defy Volumising Mascara! Normally I am a huggeeee fan of Maxfactor False Lash Effect mascara and have been using it on a day to day basis for many years, so when it came round to that time of purchasing a new mascara, it felt a bit strange opting for a new product - but I thought it would be worth a try especially as it is on offer with £3 off at Boots and it is part of the False Lash Effect family!



The wand in comparison to the Maxfactor false lash is much curvier, and I did notice on first application that there was much less product on the wand as I pulled it out of the colour base, meaning there was no product overload to cause clumps. As I was applying it, the curvy wand really does help with curling and defining the lashes which I was really suprised by as so many times with a new mascara I have found that my lashes can clump together.

The volumising and definition this mascara gives is pretty fab as my lashes did adopt a nice curvy shape that overall was very natural looking! In terms of lengthening, I have relatively long lashes naturally so this did help accentuate them although I wouldn't say it could compete with the False Lash Effect in this respect.

Sorry - this zoom in on my eye is quite alarming, but at least  you can see the results! 


I don't think I personally will be switching my mascara choice, probably because I've got quite comfortable with the False Lash Effect and I slightly prefer the more dramatic look that gives my lashes. However, I would recommend this mascara as it does what it says on the tin, it is a great volumiser and has a good effect!


What are all your favourite mascaras? Have you given this Maxfactor Clump Defy a go?
