MAYBELLINE FALSIES BIG EYES MASCARA REVIEW

Hope your all having a great day,


I want to say that I am in no way the type of person that feels I need to buy tons of mascara. Due to the nature of the product and the fact that it is something that needs to be replaced more often I tend to be much more selective when deciding to buy mascara.

I probably would have not purchased this BIG eyes mascara for the simple fact I have four mascara's on the go that I continually rotate through. However I did buy this one because I already made a statement that I would be reviewing it and I did not want to go back on my word.

So I did pick one up at my local SHOPPERS DRUG MART and I think they were $10.99. My choice was and usually always is blackest black with any mascara unless it's a colour like electric blue. So if you see this Maybelline please consider bringing back the GREAT LASH mascara in the blue and plum those were amazing mascara's and I miss them.

So for anyone who hasn't heard about this mascara basically it is a dual ended product. This mascara offers up one standard size wand on one end and a small one on the other to fine detail your lower lashes.

 SO THIS IS MY EYE BEFORE THE MASCARA

THIS IS MY EYE WITH UPPER AND LOWER LASHES COMPLETE

As you can see this mascara really does define and accentuate even the smallest of lashes. I do like this mascara, but I feel I can achieve the same quality if not better with Maybelline's Rocket mascara in the same colour. One thing I will say is that being it's not waterproof it does have excellent stay power. Just for the sake of my blog I did one eye and left it on while I slept and the next morning my eyelashes still looked nice. I did have a bit of smudging on my lower eye lid and flakey bits, which is to be expected. Oddly enough there wasn't any smeared on my pillow case which is great to know should you accidently fall a sleep wearing it.

My question to Maybelline is how different are the formulations from one mascara to the next??? Is it really a significant difference that would make for a $3-4 difference from one mascara to the other, or is it merely because it's the new shiny toy on the shelf? (sorry I just have to put that out there.) 

One thing I really appreciate about this mascara is because it's dual ended the wands are shorter. I like that because it feels like you can get in so much closer to your eyelashes without having say a two inch length of wand, it's only about a quarter inch and it feels more in control in your hand.

The small detailing end is a creative endeavour on Maybelline's part and for those who are novice to makeup this might be a great addition to start off your makeup collection. This may also be helpful to those who have an unsteady hand due to a medical condition or a senior who still wants to try to put a little makeup on from day to day with little to no help. I on the other hand I have been using mascara for just about 23 years and feel I can accomplish this task with one standard wand.

I imagine in the cosmetic industry mascara is probably one of the hardest things to continually reinvent to seem better, bolder and seem different enough to catch consumers attention. So I say kudos to the brands that make every effort to keep bringing us something new and marketable in such a demanding market such as makeup.

So I would love to hear your thoughts on this new BIG eyes mascara and any comments you would like to share.
