    This stuff does NOT do what it says. I have really long eyelashes to begin with and this did nothing normal mascara wouldn't do.

    I got it for a good price considering mascara is now between 6 and 12 dollars for a drugstore brand. Overall it did fan out my lashes and elongate them, I thought they looked good but it does tend to clump slightly and doesn't elongate my lashes as much as I would like. To get rid of the clumping I very gently cleaned my lashes using a disposable mascara wand which you can get cheap at most drug stores and the usually come in a pack of about ten, and even though they are disposable you can reuse them if you are only using them to get rid of clumps in your mascara.

    I find this product is a great price, but I find it too thick and that it leaves chunks on my lashes. I have to use a lash brush to clean some of the mascara off.

    This was not what I wanted it to be. It does make my lashes longer, but not super long like it is supposed to. Also, it is very clumpy for me. If I try to apply more than one coat my lashes will clump like crazy. I wont re buy it, but I will finish out the tube. I have to apply one coat of this, and then another coat of a different mascara on top of it to get more volume. It isn't the worst mascara ever, I do like the length it gives me, but having to use another on top of it makes this product unable to stand on its own and a downside for me.

    This is a pretty average mascara. There is nothing in this product that could possiblity give you false eyelashes. When I try it on it looks the same as any regular mascara. I found it make my lashes stick together. It is definetly not worth the price.

    This is a controversial product, some people love it but I HATE it. It's a very wet formula so it makes my eyelashes clumpy and gets rid of my curl after I use a lash curler. I won't be repurchasing.

    I usually LOVE Maybelline mascaras. They are cheap, good volume and there is a lot of selection. When the original Falsies mascara came out (there's now a new one that supposed to do even more) I was excited by the thought of a drug store mascara that offered the false lash effect. I was disappointed! I found the formula smelled (I think it has collagen in it), it was dry, and it didnt do much to volumize my lashes more than other mascara's I've had.

    I usually use the Colossal mascara from Maybelline and for a buck or so less, you get bigger lashes and less smudging.

    I have used other "false" or "tube" mascara, and like their effect, but the price was too expense to justify repeat purchases. Unfortunately the Falsies from Maybelline did not deliver the alternative I was looking for!

    The wand: Two sides of the wand are flat while the other two have bristles, Like a spoon kind of thing.

    Formula: I really do not like this formula, for my lashes at least. With my lashes i like to go over them quite a few times until my lashes are all separated and look how i want them to. This mascara is very difficult to do that with, since it is so wet the more you work with it the more clumps you get.

    Performance: -The mascara claims to give you the appearance that you are wearing false lashes when you really arent, and i have to say this mascara does that job pretty well.
    -It made my lashes longer and more dramatic, even on my friend who has longer lashes than mine, it had the same effect.
    -It does NOT hold the curl well at all. Since its such a wet formula it does make your lashes droop much faster.

    maybe if you have thick long lashes that hold curl well, this would work better for you.

    I’ve been seeing commercials for this and it piqued my curiosity. It promises a “false lash effect”. Oh really?

    Huh, it kind of does. It’s a bit flaky, but otherwise my lashes were discernibly longer.

    It might be the 'scoop' brush; I’ve never seen one quite like it. In my fascination, I took several photos of it:

    It's good, but flakes more than its drugstore competition. CoverGirl won this one.
