Max Factor Aqua Marine



This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It's a mixture of creamy and jelly - crelly I guess you'd call it ;-) It isn't really my normal colour, but funnily enough I quite liked wearing this one! Must admit to buying this in the sale though! This new style to Max Factor has a good brush and lid is comfortable to hold. Lasted really well. It's not really what I'd call "Aqua Marine" though :-|

  5. I love Max Factor polishes (when I'm able to get my hands on them, lolol). They do have a way of completely missing the mark on some of their names, though... Pretty color, still, very elegant.

  6. LOL I agree Aqua Marine isn't a good name for it - it's more like a dark khaki - I like how cool-toned it is!

  9. This is an intriguing shade, I must admit. I've got only 3 minis by Max Factor, two shimmers and FF. I should consider even the cremes during sales periods!

    1. I've got a good few of the minis! Some of them are really pretty. I've got a lot of the older style bottles too - some I've had for years! :-)
