Maybelline Mascaras
I love love love these Maybelline mascaras! They are only around $7-$8 in places like CVS, Walgreens, Target, and Wal-Mart. They give your lashes great length and a full, voluminous look for much less than high end mascara products. They have a lot of mascaras in their collection, but what makes them different and which one will work best for you?
Lets start off with:
Falsies Volum' Express Waterproof: Black Drama #6
CLAIMS: This mascara claims to give dramatic lash length to resemble false lashes. It has a curved wand that is flexible and bendable and a "Black Drama" formula that catches each lash to give full volume. This mascara gives your lashes a matte look. The packaging also states that it is contact lense safe and will not give you any gaps in your lashes. Also, claims to be able to come off easily with soap and water or an eye makeup remover.
MY OPINION: While I do like this mascara, it is not my favorite one of the collection because I do not feel that it separates my lashes well and it also tends to clump. While the scoop shape of the brush is good, I feel that it does not catch my lashes like a fuller wand would. I also do not see any type of improvment in lash length. I think that this mascara is good for everyday wear for work or school, but not for any special occasion or a night out on the town. My main question is, if it washes off easily with soap and water then why is it labeled waterproof? Although, I do find that to be false, it does not completely come off with soap and water so any type of eye makeup remover is best.
NEXT:
Falsies Volum' Express #5
ClAIMS: Although this mascara may appear to be exactly like Falsies Volum' Express: Black Drama, there are some key differences. This mascara is NOT waterproof and also is made with a different formula called Pro-Keratin, which is supposed to build up the volume of your lashes without clumping. The wand is flexible, bendable, and shaped like a spoon or scoop. Also, claims to be contact lense safe and washable with water for easy removal.
MY OPINION: I feel that this mascara has a better formula than the Black Drama formula because it does not clump on my lashes and the product glides on smoothly. I still do not feel like this gives my lashes amazing length or volume. To me its just an okay mascara that can again be used for everyday use or just when you are out and about.
NEXT:
Falsies Volum' Express Waterproof: Flared #4
CLAIMS: This mascara claims to give lashes the look of false lashes with a flare, meaning winged out. The product is made with a Pro-Keratin formula to prevent clumping while giving volume. The brush is spoon shaped and flexible just like the other Falsies mascaras.
MY OPINION: I still do not feel that this gives my lashes the voluminous look that I want. I do love the Pro-Kertain formula because I feel that it applies to my lashes smoothly without clumping. Overall, this mascara is just so-so.
NEXT:
Colossal Volum' Express #3
CLAIMS: This mascara claims to give you huge lashes with just one coat. The product has a Lush collagen-enriched plumping formula. The brush is round and appears to get smaller closer to the end. It claims to give 9x the volume without clumping. It is also contact lens safe and washable.
MY OPINIONS: I LOVE this mascara. This is by far in my top 3 mascaras from my collection of maybelline mascaras. I absolutely love the collagen formula because it gives my lashes volume and length. I feel like brush catches every lash and gives them an excellent lift. I can most definitely see a difference in my lashes.
NEXT:
Turbo Volum' Express Waterproof #2
CLAIMS: This mascara claims to give 7x the volume and work rapidly, hence the name TURBO, to thicken lashes. The formula is a turbo boost formula that make lashes voluminous quickly. The product has a straight brush that Maybelline says is an anti-clump brush. It is also contact lens safe.
MY OPINION: This is my 2nd favorite mascara from my collection! I LOVE the brush. I thought that I would not like it since it is just a straight brush, but it does work well with the formula. I feel that it gives my lashes a boost and really separates them to give my lashes a lengthy, voluminous look. I have not experienced any clumping and it gives a smooth application. I definitely recommend this mascara for daily use and for special occasions.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
Mega Plush Volum' Express #1
CLAIMS: This product claims that it will not leave lashes flaky, dry or brittle. It is a gel-mousse mascara with less hard waxes to give lashes a more voluminous look and to leave them supple. The brush is round and flexible with bristles going in different directions.
MY OPINION: My FAVORITE from my collection. The fact that the bristles on the brush are going in different directions makes it easy for them to catch every lash and apply an even amount of product. After one coat I feel that I have the full, voluminous and lengthy lashes that I want. I also love the shape of the brush because it is easy to apply the product from root to tip. The formula is by far my favorite because it leave my lashes feeling soft with no clumping. This is the mascara that I find myself reaching for whenever I go out no matter what the occasion.
