Claims for Falsies Flared
False lash glam with a flare, instantly!
• Patented Spoon Curler Brush fans out lashes from corner-to-corner, while our Pro-Keratin formula instantly builds volume without clumping.
• Unique flexible wand lifts and separates lashes to provide the look of 300% more visible, lashes.
• Contact lens safe and ophthalmologist-tested.
• Waterproof
So as we can see the claims seem quite similar so let’s try them out. At first glance I found the brushes of the two mascara’s to be quite different the Flared brush is much larger then original grabbing more product, the original formula is much creamier then the flared with the flared being a drier formula( leaving me wondering how long this product will last before drying out). Also the original formula seemed to clump a little during application. I see similar effects in both mascara’s with volume but do see more length in the Falsies Flared. After wearing them both for 8 hours I have found that neither formula has flaked but the original Falsies did not keep the curl like the Flared did. So in my opinion Falsies Flared is the one to get hands down between the two, now I can say I did not feel that with either formula my lashes were 300% more visible, but Falsies Flared did provide separation, length, volume with no clumps or flakes. So I would recommend you give it a try if you were looking at these two products just be aware of the drying of the product. Remember this is just my opinion.

Always be yourself
