Maybelline Mascara

Maybelline New York
The Falsies Volum' Express(R)
Brownish Black
My overall rating 3/10.
One point for having the color I wanted (not Black)
Two points for not clumping but still creating volume and thickness.
-2 points for having a wand that eventually I will have to pull my eye lashes out of and clean b/c it's clogged. (I find Silicone brushes don't cause this problem)
-5 points for Flaking. I don't care how awesome the color is, the wand or your new special non-clumping formula- if it flakes I don't want to wear it.


It's thick, it makes my eye lashes look thicker. But it's flakey as hell. I go to work in the morning after having put it on and everytime I pass by a mirror it looks like it's been raining brownish black bits all over my cheeks and under my eyes.
I went onto the Maybelline website and there's about 6 different ones that all look the same but are slightly different.

Volum' Express® The Falsies™ Washable Mascara

False lash glam. Corner-to-corner volume for 300% more visible lashes

Product Details

Why You'll Love It

False lash glam, instantly!
• Patented Spoon Brush fans out lashes from corner-to-corner, while our Pro-Keratin formula insantly builds volume without clumping (It doesn't clump but I'm not too sure about this "fan"ing action)
• Unique flexible wand helps to lift and separate lashes to provide the look of 300% more visible, fuller lashes, no gaps from any angle( Not that it doesn't do what it claims, I just find that silicone brushes do a better job.)
• Contact lens safe and ophthalmologist-tested ( I wear contacts and haven't had any issues)
• Washable, also available in Waterproof formula (I use the oil based Ultra bland from Lush to remove all my makeup and it works amazingly)
