Max Factor 2000 Calorie Waterproof Mascara — Black, 9 ml | High-Volume, Smudge-Resistant

Max Factor 2000 Calorie Waterproof Mascara in Black is a high-volume, long-wear mascara that builds up dramatic thickness without fragrance and resists water and smudging.

Designed for makeup artists and everyday users alike, this mascara leverages a specially formulated waterproof texture to amplify lash volume up to three times while remaining fragrance-free. The dense black pigment and progressive buildability allow you to layer coats for anything from defined fullness to striking theatrical volume, and the formulation focuses on lift and separation so lashes don't clump as you build intensity.

How does this mascara create so much volume?

The formula combines a concentrated pigment base with a viscous, volumizing blend that deposits product evenly along each lash. Instead of relying on thick wands alone, it uses measured buildability so each stroke adds substantial body and dimension.

• Special waterproof formula that creates immediate fullness
• Dense black pigment for visible depth and contrast
• Progressive layering: each coat increases volume without heavy clumping

Will it stay put through humidity and tears?

Yes—the waterproof composition is formulated to resist water, humidity and light moisture while maintaining a steady finish. It minimizes transfer and smudging for extended wear, though removal requires a proper remover to protect lash health.

• Water-resistant polymers for long-lasting hold
• Smudge-reducing texture keeps under-eye areas cleaner
• Best removed with oil-based or dedicated waterproof removers

How do I apply it for the best dramatic effect?

Start at the base of the lashes and wiggle the wand upward to coat roots and lift simultaneously. Allow a few seconds between thin layers—two to three coats typically yields pronounced volume without stiffness.

• Wiggle at the base for root lift and separation
• Build in thin layers to avoid clumping
• Use the tip of the brush to reach corner and lower lashes

Is this suitable for sensitive eyes or contact lens wearers?

Formulated without added fragrance and designed for long wear, it is frequently chosen by those who prefer less-irritating makeup. If you have known sensitivities, patch testing before regular use is recommended.

• Fragrance-free formula to reduce potential irritation
• Suitable for daily wear when no known allergies exist
• Consult a specialist if you have severe eye sensitivity

Who is this for? Max Factor 2000 Calorie Waterproof Mascara is ideal for anyone seeking bold, salon-style volume—makeup professionals, performers needing stage-proof lashes, and everyday users who want lasting, dramatic definition. It suits those who prefer buildable coverage, strong black pigment and a waterproof finish; people with very sensitive eyes should perform a patch test or check with an eye-care professional before regular use.
