Alrighty, So I have been on a hunt for a good mascara for awhile now. the last mascara I bought was Covergirl's Lash Blast Volume, and I didn't like that one, (It didn't do anything for my lashes) But I remember reading somewhere "Ether Covergirl Mascara works for you or Maybelline Mascara works for you" And the Covergirl one didn't work (Like I said) so I thought maybe I would give this a go! (And I had a coupon, so why not?) then after reading the comments like "This mascara clumps all of my lashes! it makes me look like I have 5 lashes all together!" And "I HATE THIS MASCARA!!!!!!" I was expecting the worst, Clumpy lashes, Scrubbing to get it off my lashes, Worst 4 dollars I have ever spent! But it wasn't. I LOVE this mascara! It actually works for my lashes makes them look nice and long. I didn't get the impression that I was wearing false lashes like it says, But it also didn't get a clumpy mess like everyone else said! For me this is a very good mascara! <3 :)

I had high expectations for this mascara and paid eight dollars for it at Target. The brush looked intriguing with its curved shape so I figured I would give it a go. This was my
first time buying a Mabelline mascara and I was very disappointed. The brush was not able to distribute the mascara onto my lashes and it gave them a very clumpy look. My lashes looked spidery and the brush had clumps on it. I won't be buying this again.

I've heard that Maybelline came out with a new formula that was worse than the old one. That's pretty unfortunate because I had a whole tube of the new one and I pretty much hated it. It clumped very easily, although it did give some lift to my eyelashes. It was somewhat wet upon application and it started to flake. It wasn't exactly the greatest mascara.

I really like this mascara! It is perhaps the best I have used, and I have used many. It, with 2 coats, really makes my sparse eyelashes look so much fuller and longer. I will def buy again!

I got the black drama falsies mascara. It is a more dramatic mascara and does tend to clump a bit more than I'd like. It gives good volume and adds alittle length to lashes and helps achieve more artificial lash look.

When I first bought this mascara, I didn't like it because the formula was very wet and difficult to apply without getting it everywhere. However, once it dries out after a couple of uses, it becomes much easier to apply and much more buildable to achieve a voluminous look to the lashes. It doesn't really do an absolutely amazing job of lengthening, and you will have crunchy, stiff lashes which I don't really like. It is seriously waterproof! I can bawl my eyes out and it won't run. Maybe smudge a little, but nothing too serious. You do need a good makeup remover for this. A lot of people talk about clumping, and I do agree that it tends to clump. It does clump much less if you take the time to really comb the wand through your lashes rather than apply it haphazardly like most people tend to do (:P). It doesn't hurt to comb it through once again with a spoolie after you're done! Not sure if I would repurchase, because there are so many mascaras out there and doesn't really give the natural but thick long lash effect I want, but I would definitely turn to this if I need something that is waterproof.

This is by far the best mascara you can get at the drugstore. I've even tried Lancome mascara, and Maybelline Falsies actually works better! It is the only one that I have used that did what it said it was going to do! People ask me if I'm wearing false eyelashes almost everyday, and I tell them maybe its maybelline..

This is an amazing mascara and it really does give a false lashes look. But you really have to know HOW to put it on or you will just get clumps! I suggest curling your lashes first, then apply the mascara flat side first then run the bristle side through your lashes second. It makes my thin, sparse boring lashes look amazing! I wore this on my wedding day and It didnt clump or flake or smear all day (I used the waterproof version).

The only thing I dont like about it is the bottle is kinda big and bulky..I prefer slimmer shaped bottles but eh what evs haha. Its also pretty cheap (just about 5 bucks) which is nice! :)

Im a mascara junkie and this is the last mascara i ever will need! I layer and wiggle the wand then layer again..it is amazing!!! Ive tried hundreds of products...high end and drugstore. I love this volume! My mom thought I had fake lashes on! I suggest the original falsies opposed to the black drama or flared.

I bought this at Target on a whim after seeing commercials for this mascara on TV. That was a decision I regret making after using this. Maybelline Falsies gives good length and thickness, but clumps and flakes very easily. It also has a terrible smell which I think was supposed to be rose scented, which even was noticed by people who came very close to me after the mascara dried. Even after being a bad product, I can't give this to my sister or anyone because Falsies dries up and expires so quickly after opening the tube. I don't understand all the hype around this item, which is probably coming from younger girls who have used this only once or twice, or maybe only saw the commercial, so if you ever feel compelled to buy this mascara after watching the commercials, just DON'T!

Bought this mascara after reading loads of raves about it. This mascara clumps and does not do much to my already long and curved lashes. I need more volume. This is more suitable for those with short lashes.

It seems the bad mascaras fall on the side of either being flakey or clumping. This one clumps, and is sticky. It doesn't feel like it totally dries and it takes a bit for it to not smear.

I love this mascara! Builds lashes fast and everyone always comments on how long my lashes are and it's when I wear this mascara.

Applying this mascara totally brightens up my face. It just takes a few swipes of the wand through my lashes to have an amazing effect
. I can't really comment on length, but it gives crazy volume! It never flakes, and once dry, it doesn't smudge either.
It is definitely as good as my favourite mascara (L'Oreal Voluminous) - it might even be better! I can't decide! Overall, great mascara.

This mascara clumps my lashes. I dont like it at all. The waterproof Falsies range is soooo difficult to remove even with Maybelline`s own eye makeup remover. Not purchasing this ever. Only thing the purple packaging looks nice. That`s about it.

I bought this mascara after all this amazing reviews. I already found my HG mascara, but I still like buying different mascaras.
Anyway, this mascara really does give me length and volume like my HG mascara, so really like this. As an Asian girl, we are known to have short stubby lashes, and I tried a lot of mascara to give me noticeable lashes. This particular mascara is good enough to be my second HG mascara. It's even cheaper than my other HG mascara! (L'Oreal Million Lashes) There is a tad bit of clumping, but nothing too noticeable.
The wand, I'm not sure if I like it. I like plastic wands more and this one is bristles. It's supposed to give you an amazing look since it's the shape of our lashes, but I think it's unnecessary, actually. It personally think it's the formula that give you volume and length. So if you really hate the wand, I'll just switch it out.
The formula is a bit wetter than others, but I don't really care for the consistency of the mascara as long as it does what it claims. I just want volume and most of all length. And this thing delivers!!:)

I bought this mascara on a whim at the drugstore in the colour "Brown". I've been using this mascara for about two months, and it isn't amazing but it isn't awful either. It's just kind of average. I do really like the packaging though, I'm a sucked for purple! Sometimes it clumps really badly, but if I'm careful applying I can usually avoid too much clumping. It does flake off, but it's not too bad. This is just an "eh" product I can do without.
