Maybelline The Falsies Mascara

I'm always looking for a good drugstore mascara that I can use everyday and leave my favourite high end one (Dior Show) for more special occasions. My previous favourite, Max Factor Eye Brightening mascara might just have a competitor in Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama.

I first wanted to try this mascara after seeing Tanya Burr use it a lot in her YouTube tutorials, she mentioned it was her favourite drugstore mascara so I was tempted. Then my sister bought it and and suggested I try it because I love the false lash effect - nothing natural on my eyelashes! I finally caved in just before Christmas and bought it when I came across it while browsing in Boots.

Maybelline says: 'False lash glam goes extra black, extra matte. A false lash look, corner-to-corner, no gaps. Extremeley black.'

I love this mascara, it lengthens and thickens my lashes while making them look more defined. I also love how black it is. The 'spoon brush' is excellent for giving my lashes a fanned out effect, I felt that it gave my lashes a curl without having to use my eyelash curler which is a bonus. However, the brush is bigger than I'm used to and the mascara was really wet when I first got it, so I did find that I made a bit of a mess with it sometimes (this gets better once it dries out a bit).

The Falsies costs £7.99 from Boots, which is really reasonable for a good mascara. Overall, I really like this product and think I'll be using it along with my Max Factor one, no more high end mascaras for me right now which will save me money! Have you tried this mascara?

P.S Sorry about the before picture of my eyes, I didn't realise it was blurry until I edited it and had already taken my makeup off.
