Maybelline The Falsies Mascara vs Lancome Hypnose Mascara

Ingredient List Comparison: The ingredients in both mascaras are very similar. Both contain silicones, PEG's, hyodrogenated jojoba oil and palm oil. The Maybelline, however, contains an ingredient called Acrylates Copolymer which is what makes these things waterproof (thought this mascara was not labeled waterproof).

Main Difference: BuzzFeed graphic designer Chris Ritter sampled the two products. "The Lancome goes on much smoother and less clumpy. I like the shape of the brush. You can tell the Maybelline mascara is trying to duplicate it, but it feels much cheaper. I applied two coats of the Lancome, since the formula was smoother and thinner. The Maybelline just felt like a thick clumpy mess."

The Verdict: The end result is pretty similar, so it's up to you if you want to splurge for a more luxurious application.
