Maybelline New York Volum' Express The Falsies Washable Mascara

Not bad.

Maybelline Falsies Flared is probably on my top ten mascaras that I've ever used (not such a big feat, since I'm a mascara newbie. I've tried less than 10 mascaras in my life). I bought the waterproof formula; this is big for me, because I'm expecting to wear it to my graduation (lots of crying there) and my graduation after party (which will be a pool party) and I tried it out today. Terrible! It had left little black rings of mascara under my eyes. As a regular mascara, however, it works well, if you know how to use it. The first time I had used it, it clumped so terribly. I had practiced putting it on, got the hang of it. So, all-in-all, terrible as waterproof, brush takes getting used to, but I like the formula. Not too wet, too dry, too thick, or too thin.

Rimmel London Extra Super Lash Mascara

Good for the price

I bought this mascara because it was in my budget; it was only $3! I bought it exactly one month ago and have been using it ever since. My lashes are medium length and are pretty thick. This mascara adds length and some volume, but it gives me clumps only on my right eye. Its really strange. The color is very nice, and the lengthening feature is great, but it doesn't give me as much volume as I would like. This is my first mascara; I'm only thirteen! :) So, basically: Pros: Price, color, and length Cons: Leaves my undereyes black after about 5 hours, doesn't volumize so much, clumps on my right eyelashes (??) The formula is really good, the brush would probably be better for other consumers, but for me it doesn't really work.
