Mascara is not just the last step to your make-up routine, it’s also your dependable friend when you need to put together a full face in under 10 mins. A single coat of mascara works wonders and gives your face that extra oomph even during a video call. To keep up the volume and curl in place, your lashes might need a water-resistant and long wearing formula that can withstand rain, shine and ugly crying.
We scoped out the top waterproof mascaras that stand the test of seasons, emotions, and the toughest work out sessions:
1. Maybelline New York Hypercurl Mascara Waterproof Black
Long -lasting, pigmented, water-resistant yet ultra-comfortable, pretty much sums up this mascara. The curved applicator reaches your lash line better, and the bristles separate each lash without giving you a clumpy and effect. Basically, you can get through the rain, sweat and humidity without smearing your mascara.
2. Ciate London Carbon Black Wonderwand Mascara
Did we hear voluminous lashes? Two coats of this intensely volumizing and lengthening mascara is enough to give you curled, thick, and conditioned lashes that would last through the whole day. The brush has a unique shape that helps in amplifying the effect and definition of this mascara.
3. Revlon So Fierce! Big Bad Lash Mascara - Blackest Black
Long lasting, super lengthening, lightweight and a formula that gives you reasonable hold in one go. The brush applicator is the highlight of the product, it has more of an hourglass shape that densely coats each lash and gives you the runway ready fan effect in an instant.
4. Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye Mascara Black
A more suitable companion to your smokey eye does not exist. Along with being waterproof, the formula of this one stands out as it does not stick your lash together, it rather coats every single lash hair giving you a naturally lifted yet voluminous look. The brush has a tapered tip that efficiently coat all the hard-to-reach lashes. Trust us, with this there’s not much you can complain about.
5. Elizabeth Arden Lasting Impression Mascara Black
Let’s be honest: it’s difficult to find a mascara that is both water-proof and easy to remove. Formulated with ingredients like ceramides, this mascara ‘ardently’ cares for your lash hair. Apart from giving your eyelashes exceptional length, the brush applicator has five unique and iconic spheres that grab each lash and build its thickness. The mascara is also buildable, so a few wiggles and you’d make eyelash extensions envious of your lashes.
