Maybelline New Falsies Push Up Angel Mascara



Hello Cuppies,

Well since I have been on a Maybelline kick I figured why not keep the train rolling. So yesterday I purchased Maybelline's the Falsies Push Up Angel mascara because of the wand. 

Let me tell you, I love it! It works wonders and is a great drugstore find. 

The Falsies Push Up Angel mascara by Maybelline does not disappoint. I have about average length and amount of lashes that are fair in color so I always love using a good mascara to define and bring life to my lashes.

I love the look and design of the metallic purple tube. It’s a vast improvement compared to Maybelline’s Colossal mascaras. Stylish, chic but still travel friendly size. 

The biggest improvement of this mascara is the size, design and material of the wand. Being that there is less bristles that go from shorter to longer the way it would fit the shape of your eye and lashes target exactly each lash. Less is more and it works perfect. I feel that with this wand there is less chance of clumping compared to the 360° wands with lots of bristles.

I purchased the color “brownish black” just to try something different because I tend to go for the very black. I am pleasantly surprised that it’s very pigmented and looks more of darker natural color than pitch black. I can easily build up to increase the color and dramatic effect, but with just one coat it’s noticeably different.

The application is very easy and the results are amazing more than I expected. With just one coat without an eyelash curler my lashes look amazing and flare beautifully. I have had no issues with clumps and it applies evenly. The separation is amazing and pulls the product from the lash line to create amazing appearance of length.

The mascara is washable and easily comes off with soap and water and scrubbing softly. I would recommend that everyone try Falsies to see the difference. Amazing results and a great price.

Maybelline The Colossal Go Extreme Mascara

Excitedly I was able to try Maybelline's Jade The Colossal Go Extreme mascara in black. I have tried other mascaras from Maybelline and generally like them.

It appears that there are few different mascaras in the line of “Colossal” and this one is labeled Go Extreme volum express with Jade. I am not sure if this particular “Go Extreme” mascara is available or is discontinued since I couldn’t find the exact one to purchase online.

The packaging is nicely designed and its size and shape is exactly like their The Colossal Chaotic tube. The base of the wand with the two curves is like that of the Pumped Up mascara. The size of the actual wand/bristles is pretty large, but I am able to apply mascara into the corners where lashes are smaller.

I would say I have about average size and amount of lashes, but they are lighter and using mascara greatly improves the appearance. I feel like every application of the mascara is consistent and even, only a few times do I rarely get clumps and that’s at the tip of the wand. So when I do apply the wand to the short inner/outer of my lashes there is a greater chance of clumps. The amount of product is very thin and I find myself applying more like 4 coats to get a good coverage. I would say that the buildup is fair. With plenty of applications I can get my desired look for the most part.

The mascara dries fairly quickly and the pigmentation is jet black. If you do get a clump it’s easy to remove/clean up. I think the best part about this mascara is that it doesn’t feel heavy or clumpy on your lashes. Once dried your lashes feel natural and as if there isn’t product all over them.

Pros
Applies evenly
Lightweight
Waterproof
Smudge proof
Easy separation with comb/fingers
Rarely clumps
Inexpensive

Cons
Not as Extreme as I would have expected
Apply a lot of coats to get any effect/buildup
Brush is a bit large/chunky
Minimal Volume

I’d say the quality is good and it’s an inexpensive mascara that gets the job done. I think a possible improvement for the product is possibly a different formula that does boost the appearance of length and volume. Does not live up to its “Go Extreme” name. I also think the two waves/curves on the wand is just cosmetic and if more attention was paid to the bristle alignment and size it would be easier to get coverage.

Overall I would rate this mascara a 7 out of 10. I would consider this to be a reliable and inexpensive mascara that I could see buying again, but it wouldn’t be my first choice. I would recommend to anyone that is looking for a good drugstore mascara. It applies evenly and dries fairly quickly making it a staple in easy to use mascara.
