My favorite mascaras

Diorshow Waterproof is like instant-intensity mascara, and it is buildable so you can do multiple swipes over your lashes and it will not clump-out.

Diorshow Iconic Waterproof gives more highly-defined lashes in part because of its really cool rubber applicator.

These two have been my favorite mascaras for a while now. Diorshow Waterproof has been my mainstay mascara for a long time now and I’ve just acquired Iconic Waterproof which I usually request during makeovers.

My eyes tend to naturally water frequently, and I’m often exposed to water so I pretty much always need waterproof mascaras. Some non-waterproof mascaras are actually not that bad, but there are some which really smudge when exposed to water, e.g. Dior’s Blackout which I will sometimes use for a special occasion/short-term application. I love the fact that I can literally stand under a shower and have it spray directly on my face and, when I step out, my makeup looks nearly as perfect as when it was just applied. Usually I will just do a minor cleanup under the eyes with a cotton round and a touch of makeup remover.
