Maybelline the Falsies Big Eyes Mascara VS. the Falsies Mascara

Color : Both in Very Black Waterproof
Price: the Falsies Big Eyes - 7.99 at Ulta
          the Falsies - 6.99 at Ulta

Need To Know:

The Big Eyes attracted me at first sight due to its dual ended mascara wands; one end is for the upper lashes and the other for the lower lashes.  And the original Falsies has such a great reputation (with me and with the public in general) I had to pick it up!

I knew right off the bat that if I didn't get my hands on it soon that:
1) I would regret it when it sold out
2) It will for sure be sold out very soon
