Maybelline The Falsies

Of course I had to try it. Everyone has tried it. But my experience is one of the bad ones.

Here it is without the packaging (which I threw away).

I found this mascara to be very clumpy, very flakey, and very smudgy. The stopper was very loose and that caused way to much product to come out on the wand (including that big glob of product at the tip). Another problem I had with it is that it's a regular bristle brush. I prefer the plastic (rubber?) bristle mascaras.

Here you can see the wand has that big glob of extra product at the end.

Maybe if I had gotten the waterproof version it would have been better. But in my opinion that's just a crutch. I've tried One By One and Mega Plush in the regular formula and neither were as awful as this one was. The Mega Plush one did come with a regular bristle brush but I was able to switch it out with the One By One brush that is plastic and I loved that combination. However this tube looks the same size but it's not compatible. If you look at the width of the wand it's much smaller than the One By One and Mega Plush.

However I did try using the One By One wand by rubbing the two together and transfering the product to the other wand but the formula is just so bad that it didn't help. I did give this one a fare trial of 2 weeks using it every day.

I will give it one thing though: A few days ago I was wearing it and my husband asked if I was wearing falsies (which I only wear on special occasions). So I guess they do that job well.

Bottom line is that I would not suggest this to a friend.
