Maybelline Mascaras

Maybelline’s two newest mascaras, The Falsies & One by One Volume Express! I’ve got both of these in Very Black & waterproof formulas.

The  Falsies has a slightly curved ‘spoon’ brush with plastic bristles. It’s wand is flexible & claims to lift & separate lashes so they look 300% fuller. I was on the fence about this for a while, but in the end, it’s not my favourite. It doesn’t live up to it’s claims, and it’s clumpy.

I just picked up One by One yesterday, but at first use, I already like it better than the Falsies. It has a ‘lash catcher’ brush that claims to declump mascara & coat each lash so it’s fuller & thicker. The bristles are really plastic-y, but they keep  lashes clump free & separate them nicely.

It’s also interesting because the Falsies gets the typical mascara glob at the tip of the wand, but One by One doesn’t get that.

I’m much happier with One by One & think it’s a pretty good drugstore mascara. These retail for around $5.49 & can be found at various locations including Wal Mart, Target & Walgreens.

Bye for now! xo
