8 Best Waterproof Mascaras For Smudge-Free Lashes 2023
The beauty product has become an absolute sensation thanks to TikTok where it’s been labelled the “best mascara ever” by fans.
Wearing a waterproof mascara isn’t just handy if you’re going to the beach for the day – it’s also a great option for the warmer months.
During summer the mascara you so hopefully applied to your lashes in the morning can end up smudged around your eyes by lunchtime due to sweat and humidity.
Regular mascara can also be more of a hazard than a help during nights out, with it all too easy for it to streak if you’ve been dancing or squeezed between friends at a crowded bar.

HOW DO YOU REMOVE WATERPROOF MASCARA?
To avoid damaging or breaking lashes, you should soak a cotton or reusable pad in makeup remover and hold it over your lashes.
Allow it to soak in for 20 to 30 seconds before gently using the pad to swipe away the mascara.
If you don’t want to use makeup remover other options include micellar water or coconut oil – but be careful not to get the oil into your eyes.
CAN YOU WEAR WATERPROOF MASCARA EVERY DAY?
While brands are constantly coming out with new and improved waterproof mascara formulas, it’s generally recommended you don’t wear it every day.
This is because it’s harder to remove than a standard mascara and the extra effort required to remove it could damage your lashes.

Instead save it for the warmer months or days you will be more prone to sweat or moisture – as well as when you won’t have time to touch up your makeup.
