Recommend your Mascara

It feels like my mascara is always smudging (made up word) under my eyes!! 

I'm thinking because I stare at a computer most of the day my eyes water and its causing it to migrate under my eyes giving me this nice druggie kind of look.  I have been using waterproof but it doesn't seem to help keep it on my eye lashes?

What do you use?  Any recommendations on keeping it where it is supposed to be?

Re: Recommend your Mascara

  • Lancome is the best mascara, but I don't always buy it because it is a little pricey. Totally worth it though.

    (and if it helps at all I've been a makeup artist and my mom is one now and we both love Lancome mascara)

  • I don't use mascara very often, but I use Dior (waterproof).  The thing that helps me is to put a bit of powder on the lashes before applying and a little after to set it.
  • My holy grail mascara is L'Oreal Voluminous Waterproof in black/brown.  I do need to use makeup remover to take it off at night (I use Mary Kay), but the stuff doesn't budge.  It's comparable to Dior Diorshow (which is good, but damn pricey).

    I've also had decent luck with Maybelline Great Lash, but that one tends to flake a bit once the tube has been open for a while.

  • i use the maybelline mascara in the pink and green container.  i've used it for years and love it.
  • I've used L'Oreal Voluminous Waterproof in black for years.  It is my favorite.  It comes off really easily with the Neutrogena makeup remover.

    I currently use and have for YEARS L'Oreal Voluminous Waterproof.  I used to love it and don't know why all of a sudden it will not stay on my eye lashes.  I almost want to post a picture of my eyes in a couple hours so you see what I'm talking about.

    I would def be willing to spend a little more on mascara if I could get it to stay on my eye lashes.  I might look into dior or lancome.

  • Dior Show or YSL...both can be found at Sephora. They are both AWESOME!

  • I love Maybelline.  It's cheap, on sale & usually I have coupons for it.  I like Define-A-Lash, Falsies & Colossal.  They all have waterproof versions.  I also sit in front of a computer all day & don't notice it gathering under my eye.  The thing I like best about it is the length it gives my lashes.  My lashes look really short without mascara, but all of the 3 I've mentioned really elongate my lashes.  My eye Dr. even made a comment about how long they were.

  • I switch between YSL Faux Cils and Shu Uemura's basic mascara.  Love them both.  Stay on all day.  No smudging.
