  • My Max Factor box was waiting for me when I arrived home from work today.:(
    Is it me or are the colours dark? I ordered a beige and it is much too dark for my skin - even the natural ones that come as little sample sachets are darker than I'd expect them to be.

    Should I email them and say it's too dark for me?

    I've ordered natural... I really hope its not too dark or i won't wear it. I would email them and see what they say. Or maybe thats the whole point of the trial. Let me know how you get on and i'll let you know when i get mine.

    It's really quite nice... comes in a gift style bag with savvy circle on it with tissue paper in it.. got a full size foundation and 18 sample sachets to give out along with 18 x £2 off vouchers.

    I ordered beige too...when I tested it, I thought it would be too light for me but I actually like it - wasn't sure if it would give very good coverage as it seemed runny but I'm pleasantly surprised! :)

    I got an email to say have been accepted for the bold project today. Bit nervous as have never actually tested anything before. But with a household of 5, am a bit of a washaholic!

    I wasn't chosen for the Bold campaign, but I was for the Max Factor one! I haven't received it yet though.

    You can get an idea of the pack on the blog: http://circle.supersavvyme.co.uk/en/p/max-factor/

    I hope the colour wont be too dark or light for me. If I had time I would've gone to Boots to check the brand's foundation...

    Hope that helps!
