Max Factor Excess Volume Extreme Impact Black Mascara

The Max Factor Excess Volume Extreme Impact Black Mascara is a specialized dual-ended product designed for those who want the high-gloss, "wet-look" finish of a professional salon lash tint combined with massive thickness.

Unlike standard mascaras, this is a two-step system that prioritizes both structural bulk and a polished aesthetic.

Key Features & Benefits

• Step 1: Extreme Volume: The first wand features a mega-brush that coats lashes with a thick, volumizing base. It uses "hollow spheres" to add density without making the lashes feel overly heavy.

• Step 2: Dark Lacquer Finish: The second wand applies a thin, jet-black lacquer. This acts as a topcoat that seals the volume, smooths out any clumps from the first step, and provides an intense, shiny black finish.

• Smudge-Resistance: The lacquer topcoat creates a barrier that helps prevent the mascara from flaking or smudging throughout the day.

• High-Contrast Look: The "Extreme Impact Black" pigment is designed to be deeper than standard carbon blacks, providing a stark contrast that makes the whites of the eyes appear brighter.

How to Apply for Best Results

1. The Base (Step 1): Sweep the volumizing brush from the root of your lashes to the tips. You can apply multiple coats while the formula is still wet to build the desired thickness.

2. The Seal (Step 2): Immediately follow with the lacquer topcoat. This "shrink-wraps" the volumizing base. Do not wait for Step 1 to dry completely, as the lacquer needs to bond with the base for a smooth finish.

3. Removal: Because the lacquer is designed to be long-wearing and water-resistant, it is highly recommended to use an oil-based makeup remover or a dual-phase cleanser to ensure all product is removed without tugging on your lashes.
