Mascara is one of my beauty must-haves, I’m talking my one desert island makeup product. I know you’re probably thinking that mascara + the open sea + a lot of crying for help = panda eyes. However, with a waterproof mascara by your side, you can’t go wrong.
Whether you’re crying for something far less extreme than being stuck on an island, these are our top picks for the best waterproof mascaras that won’t run while crying.
Primark – Aqualash Mascara £2
Primark is home to some of the biggest and best beauty bargains and this mascara is a total steal at only £2! It’s got a flexible brush to give your lashes full coverage and is infused with vitamin E to moisturise and strengthen your lashes.
Rimmel – Scandaleyes Volume on Demand Waterproof Mascara £7.99
This clump-proof formula is perfect for resisting tears, sweat and rain for up to 24-hour wear. Even though it’s a waterproof formula, you’re still able to create your desired lash look and can even add additional coats once your lashes have dried without any clumping.
E.L.F. – Waterproof Lengthening and Volumizing Mascara £4.50
E.L.F. has improved the formula and brush head of this waterproof mascara for enhanced performance and application. Create full, thicker-looking lashes that last from day to night with prevented clumping.
NYX – Worth the Hype Waterproof Mascara £9
NYX did not come to play with this waterproof mascara, we think it’s totally worth the hype! Your lashes will look full and lengthy all day, whilst still remaining comfortable. A must-have for anyone else that has straight lashes as the brush volumises your lashes from root to tip.
W7 – Absolutely Waterproof Mascara £4
W7 are masters at making super affordable but quality products. Absolutely Waterproof is the perfect mascara to give your lashes length and extra curl. The soft spiked brush makes it easier to separate lashes with no clumping.
Bobbi Brown – No Smudge Mascara £25
The No Smudge Mascara is on the higher end of our recommendations but is perfect for anyone looking to spend a bit more or to gift to someone else. It’s amazing for a natural finish to the lashes or is easily buildable for an intense eye look and there’s no need to worry about clumping, smudging or flaking. No wonder it’s called the ‘raincoat for lashes.’
