Tubing is the only mascara that truly works. I've tried them all. The very best is Milani (Highly Ruted) tubing mascara. I've tried ones that cost $30 and this one $12 and it is the best by far!

My mascara runs like crazy and this works.

My fav - Neutrogena Health Lengths - does do super long but it does not smudge.

The only one that has ever worked for me is Trish McEvoy. It crumbles off after 12 hours but it never smudges.

Tubing mascara. I like mco beauty

L’Oréal tubing mascara (red tube) or buy Heroinemake or another Japanese formuka

My eyes water a lot in the cold weather. The only solution I have found is tubing mascara. Look it up, there are multiple brands. I have liked blinc, and wasn't a fan of Tarte.

This was always my problem; I could never find anything that worked. My solution was to go to clear mascara (+curler). It works well enough and no raccoon eyes.

If I don't want to look like a raccoon and/or panda by the end of the night, do I need a waterproof mascara? Any recommendations? I have black hair, so I want mascara more to make my lashes look thicker than anything else.
