NYX Cosmetics’ Worth The Hype Waterproof Mascara

This mascara does a lot of the things that I want it to. It defines and separates, it adds length, it doesn’t add tons of volume, and it’s waterproof so there’s no smudging. It does clump a little - you can see it on the ends of my lashes on the outer 1/3 of my lash line. The fatter brush with longer bristles also means that it’s a little easier for me to tap my eyelid when I’m trying to get the mascara evenly onto the ends of my lashes.

For those of you who strongly prefer non-waterproof mascara, this is available in a washable formula (and more colors in that formula while we waterproof-lovers only get black and more black. Dang it.)
