The Budget Fashionista

I like Maybelline’s Great lash, but I know some folks swear by L’Oreal. What is your fav waterproof mascara?

i use almay waterproof in brown-black, but it seems like they changed the formula when they changed the packaging and i’m not thrilled with it anymore. i also have a hard time getting it off even with the makeup remover pads… any suggestions?

definitely maybellines full n’ soft.

i second the almay brown-black, but not married to it. i’d happily take suggestions!

i’ve been using avon’s waterproof masacara. it’s cheap and it does the job! it doesn’t smudge too!

i second maybeline Full & Soft, but not waterproof.  does it make much sense to wear waterproof where there is no rain?  am I missing something here?

I know this mascara is not budget friendly however I swear by Chanel’s Inimitable Waterproof Mascara Multi-Dimensionnel. It ROCKS and is so wroth the money! In the summer I usually wear nothing but lip gloss and mascara so I need one that really does the job and this is like no other! I say if it is important to you then spend a little extra and get a good one…that is my two cents and I am sticking to it!

lol. you’re right it isn’t budget friendly at all! but if it’s good then it’s worth every penny! =)

I’ve been using the Estee Lauder zero smudge, since not sudging is more important than curling and anything else to me.. it is not cheap $19 but it is worth it.  I wear it daily and it doesn’t smudge or smear for over 12 hrs!!!

that’s good but does it come off easily too??

It does with makeup remover.  I have sensitive eyes so I have to use mu remover, I usually use beauticontrol since it is very gentle on my eyes..

ahh..ok. thanks!

btw, i like beauticontrol’s scrub for the hands. i forgot the name! lol. but i really like it coz it makes my hands feel smooth and soft!

I swear by Maybelline XXL Waterproof. I first started using it when I lived in Florida, where it held up extremely well through some rough allergy seasons as well as suffocating humidity. It’s cheap, and besides being a great waterproof, is a great mascara overall!
