Unhappy Max Factor Discontinued In US

I went to the store to pick up some Max Factor products and there weren't any. I googled and learned that they are no longer selling in the US. I also couldn't find anywhere to buy online. I'm devastated. The 2000 Calorie Mascara in auburn was the best product I've ever found.

Anyone else lamenting the loss of Max? Anyone have suggestions for a new product line? (Does anyone besides Max make an auburn mascara?)

Ooo oo, maybe next time I visit the States I can bring some in as contraband - like Nylons and Hershey bars in WW2!

Wow, I thought they stopped making it over a decade ago. I haven't heard of Max Factor since I was a kid.

Really? I've used it for ages and it's always been very easy to find.

I looked at the MAC website and only saw black and brown. The site was kinna difficult to navigate, though, so maybe I missed it.

Hrm, I looked at and it said the product was not available. I should probably try to find a new brand, though, since Max is going to be increasingly difficult to find.

I've always shied away from buying cosmetics on eBay because someone told me that the products are usually overstocks/closeouts and could be quite old. Don't know if that's true or not.

You'd know if mascara is old. It's smells horrible, and it's liquid form becomes more solid.
