Maybelline Volume Express Mascara - Falsies Flared

This mascara is amazing! It give you full, long lashes and stays on amazingly even if its not waterproof. Its quite clumpy but if you brush it out and dont apply too much its an easy problem to get rid off. Overall amazing product, makes my lashes look like heaven :) definitely worth the purchase

I find a few coats is required, but this is quite a 'wet' mascara so sometimes I get marks on the skin where my lashes sit. I find it takes 2-3 coats to get a look I'm happy with, but sometimes the wet consistency of the product means clumps, but a lash brush fixes that.

The waterproof formula sticks like the proverbial to a blanket and the washable formula comes off quite nicely. I love the length it gives and the volume as well. I'm allergic to latex based false lash glue, so this is often as close as I'll get to falsies.

I have a love - hate relationship with this mascara. I hate it when its brand new, it makes my lashes stick and clump together and look a mess. So I have to use an older mascara wand to separate my lashes - frustrating! But I put up with this as a few weeks later its like a completely different mascara. it doesn't clump and makes my lashes longer, darker and with more volume. I don't know what this is to do with ? maybe its the mascara drying out a bit and its not so liquidy ? One other problem I do find is that because it makes my lashes so long they touch the skin under my brow bone and smudges a bit on my skin but I put up with this for long lush lashes haha! I'm yet to find my holy grail mascara so ill stick with this one in the mean time!

I am a little makeup obsessed and I am very fussy. I have tried many different hi-end mascaras and I have found that in general, when it comes to mascara you just can't beat Maybelline. This Mascara makes lashes look long and full and I have had no problems with clumping, even on my lower lashes.

Ohh my god. This mascara is my go to!!! Makes my lashes look sooo bigg i apply two coatings and the second coating makes them big anc curly and black. and its so good as its only around $25 such a cheap but awesome score!!! Love it girls deffo worth the buy

This actually was never a product that interested me, and it was only when i was at a makeup sale and started talking to a girl who, like me was digging through bins on makeup, when she swore by Maybelline Falsies, saying it was the best mascara she had ever used, and showed my her eyelashes to prove her point.

I was sold.

I brought one mascara and i think it costed around $9 or $10 which i think is very affordable.

This mascara is quite fun and i just judge that from the magenta purple packaging which is embellished by blue metallic writing.

The wand on this mascara is a brush which has a unique curve to. The formula of the mascara seemed nice aswell, its the blackest black (my favourite), and is a nice consistency, not to thin or thick.

I found this applied amazingly to my eyelashes, it coated them evenly, and did give them a fake eyelash look. As for the flared aspect? I dont think it flared my eyelashes out, because they didnt get that winged look, but they did look fuller and thicker.

One downside to this mascara is it did nothing for defining my eyelashes, even though is says it does separate my lashes, i found it wasn't as effective at doing this.

Another downside to this product was that it dried up really fast. In saying this, i did buy it from a big bucket sale, so it could have been an older product.

Overall, im pretty impressed with this product and it is one of my favourite 'drugstore' mascaras's.

I love this mascara! The brush helps to curl your lashes as well as provide volume and length. I have quite short lashes and the falsies lengthens more than any other affordable mascara I have tried. It doesn't dry out quickly either so it lasts a good amount of time. My holy grail mascara! Would recommend to anyone.

I'm a big fan of Maybelline mascaras. I really don't see the point of paying a lot of money for mascara especially as it's a product we are told to replace every few months. I also have a love/hate relationship with new mascaras. I always find I have to wipe the wand to get rid of the excess when they are new. Then you have that golden period of time when the consistency is just right, before they start getting a bit old and clumpy. Unfortunately this one was clumpy to start with and all the way through to the end.

I do like the colour of the packaging and the tube is easy to grip and open. I also like the slight curve of the brush and the fact that the wand is flexible. It would be good if the top of the wand was flat so that you could stand it up on its end when you are cleaning up the mess from clumps, because, did I tell you? It will clump! Applying mascara has never taken me so long as I've had to comb my lashes through to get rid of the clumps and also blot the clumps off my eyelids. It was like I'd never applied mascara before!

On the bright side I did get asked which mascara I was wearing when I used this so the results were good. Once I got rid of the clumps.

I would definitely buy Maybelline mascara again. Just not this one.
