Do you use waterproof mascara regularly? All the time? Only on special occasions?

.

I tend to only use waterproof mascara if there’s an occasion that would call for it myself!

    Most of the time. I keep non-waterproof on hand for days when I’m wearing very little makeup or if I’ll only be wearing it for a few hours. But the rest of the time I use waterproof. It gives me the most dramatic lashes, holds the curl the best, and wears the best for me.

    Only in the summer do I use it regularly, and on other special occasions!

    I’ve gotten to the point that I use waterproof everyday. If you use a formula that isn’t to hard to remove it’s handy because if it rains or you happen to burst into a crying spell you don’t have to worry so much. Convenient :D

    If you have straight lashes, waterproof mascaras hold the curl better created with an eyelash curler than regular formulas. I use mostly waterproof. Helena Rubinstein’s Lash Queen waterproof in Feline Black is my favorite at the moment. It works on any lash type.

    Yes, Christine,good question.

    I ONLY use waterproof mascaras.

    Have twice worn a regular/non-waterproof one in my life – my first and last time! :)

    In the summer I wear it everyday. It’s just too hot during the day so if I don’t wear waterproof mascara it seems to smudge. Other than summer, I don’t find it necessary to wear it on a daily basis (:

    I wear waterproof mascara for special occasions and during the summer months at the pool. Clinque by far is the best one!

    definitely ! Don’t want to have panda eyes in any circumstances !

    Yep, all the time. I wear contacts and would rather be safe than sorry.

    Always!
    Partly because of the non-smudge aspect, also holds curl much better after I use my eyelash curlers (I have very straight lashes) and mainly because living in London, we get a lot of rain.. which ruins your hair and make up in minutes if you get caught without your umbrella! At least this way I don’t get panda eyes :)

      this! i live in a very rainy/wet/cold place as well and any sort of moisture or wind making your eyes run…panda eyes would be a common occurrence if not for my waterproof lashblast :)

    almost everyday… the non-waterproof of my fave mascara (Maybelline Turbo Boost) doesn’t work as well at holding up a curl. Thus, I have no choice :-/ Plus, the wet hot and humid climate here usually calls for waterproof

  12. Rita

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Yes, definately. Waterproof or similar, like weatherproof. Funny enough, some mascaras are more waterproof than some ‘waterproof’ ones. Also, sometimes it is difficult to find out if a mascara is waterproof or not. Don’t understand why.

  13. fiaspice

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I never tried it. My mascara seem pretty good since weven if I cry they don’t run.

  14. Ceriene

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Only during the summer, or when I’m headed to the pool or beach. I don’t find the need to use it regularly since it tends not to be as thick as normal mascara.

  15. Katie W

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Only if I know I’ll need it because it’s such a pain to remove. But at the moment out of my two brown mascaras, I’m really not liking the normal one, so sometimes when I don’t want black I’ll just use the WP and deal with it later. :) Good question!

  16. Clara

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Always! lol. As long as they hold the curl.

  17. Bridget

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I only wear waterproof mascara during the summer. I hate it so much because it is really hard for me to remove.

  18. Cat

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I do wear waterproof quite often. I’m always getting smudges on the my bottom lastline. I still get them with waterproof just not as bad. Does anyone have any suggestions?

  19. amy

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I used to use it all the time, but nowadays, I only use it when it is very rainy or if I am going to be exposed to lots of water.

  20. Aniroc

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I do tend to wear waterproof mascara becuase the non-waterproof ends up melting and smudging under my lower lash line even when I am not even wearing liner there. The waterpoof ones do on occasion melt, but not as much.

  21. Christy

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I have to, it rains too much in my area!

  22. Jess

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I use waterproof mascara almost everyday! i just like how it last all day.

    I don’t use waterproof mascaras,I don’t like the formula,the smell,the oily feeling,and removing them is pure pain for the lashes.I don’t have any smudge problems with non-waterproof mascaras,so I stick with them.If rarely there’s an occasion then I use a regular mascara,and Fix Mascara from Clarins.It’s wonderful,it makes the non-waterproof mascara waterproof,makes the color deeper,I love it:D:D:D:D

    I used to and then I fell in love with fresh’s supernova mascara, so. <3

    Its such a hassle to remove. So i only wear it when im going swimming or to a special occasion.

  26. Connie

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I’ve been using non-waterproof mascara without any problems but I’ll probably try it out next summer when the pool opens again.

  27. Kajsa

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Yes, I think my lashes are too long or something because I get raccoon eyes when I don’t use WP mascara..
    I layer a WP mascara over a non WP mascara, I tell myself it not as harsh on the lashes.

  28. Kristina

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    always, it holds the curl better because it is waxier.

  29. laura

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    never. impossible to take off!

  30. Sarah M

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I only use waterproof mascara if I am wearing heavy eye makeup simply because if my eyes water, for whatever reason, you can only imagine what a huge mess that is going to make.

  31. lunatwinkle

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Everyday! I have short, straight, and sparse lashes and only waterproof mascara will hold a curl, since the formula contains more wax in it. :D

  32. Anitacska

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I usually just use normal mascara as waterproof is so much harder to remove. Only use waterproof if I go to the beach, swimming pool or if I have an optician appointment. My regular mascara (Guerlain Le 2) is so great, it doesn’t smudge or flake at all.

  33. Darrien

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Only for special occasions and when I know I might get a little sappy, but for everyday I just wear regular mascara. My favorite for waterproof is DiorShow Waterproof stays on like a charm.

  34. sharon

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    yes.. all the time.. the other ones base of water cant hold my lashes at all… i use a spoon and a eyelash curler to hold them up and only waterproff mascaras ..

    my lashes seems like the cow ones.. straight and down.. heheh

  35. Leila

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Everyday. :) It’s always humid where I live, even during the winters so my mascara always tends to run and disappear. It’s not really a pain for me to remove though!

  36. Wilcoa

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    Ditto I try to use waterproof only if it’s needed… or if I’m walking in the dead of winter since my eyes tend to water – I’ve learnt my lesson the hard way ;P Otherwise I may use it on my bottom lashes in case of tears.

  37. Suzanne

    I never wear waterproof-mascara..

  38. Rebecca

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    The only kind I buy now. The more waterproof the better (not the water washable kind)!

  39. Sally

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    YES, YES, YES! It holds curl better than any other mascara out there and with a good eye-makeup remover it wipes off clean and simple. Its the best!

  40. Sass

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    No. I don’t wear it at all. I don’t like the consistency of the product on the brush.

  41. Tina

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    never! don’t hate me, people! I just find it irritating and hard to take off.

  42. Chiara

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    No, I don’ t like them.

  43. ocelot1

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    yes, because its basically the only thing that holds a curl on my stick straight lashes. even still, some waterproof formulas dont hold a curl! its frustrating…

  44. ocelot1

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    oh- i hit submit too soon; my faves are maybelline colossal wp, cover girl lash blast wp. i am waiting for cover girl lash blast length to come out with a wp & want to try mayb stiletto wp. i WISH mac’s plushlash was in wp!! i usually wear plushlash over cover girl lash blast wp to plump up my lashes.

  45. Evelyn

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I ONLY use waterproof. My lashes don’t hold a curl at all with regular mascara. I’ve grown used to the work needed to remove it at the end of the day.

  46. victoria

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    i don’t use them because they’re hard to remove but lately i’ve been using cleansing oil to remove my smokey eye makeup that i’ve been sporting lately. since cleansing oil removes tough makeup perhaps i will try them this time, any suggestions?

    • Carla

      Tuesday, December 1, 2009

      CHANEL IMITABLE WP….holds the curl for straight lashes and has a great clump free brush. pricey, but worth it.

    up until this summer, i only used non-waterproof. but now i adore waterproof mascara, and look for it first! :)

  49. Bridgette

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I do on occasions. The last time I used it was for my graduation day cause I thought I was going to cry that day. But normally I use non waterproof.

  50. Janet

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I wear waterproof every day as my eye area tends to be oily. Waterproof mascara formulas seem to be the only ones that do not end up all over my face.

  51. Kelsey

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    not really. I do have a tube that I used all during summer but now I never use it.

  52. Skyler

    Waterproof mascara is so terrible for your lashes. Even if you have a good make-up remover, it is still very hard on your sensitive lashes. It rips mine clear out even when I am gentle removing with an oil-based or non-oil-based remover. I pretty much never use waterproof anything. I may consider it on my wedding day but that is about it! I just find it too damaging, so I avoid it at all costs. I suppose if I had a problem with smudging–which thankfully I do not–I would feel differently. But as I have never had a problem with non-waterproof mascara smudging, I will stick with it! :)

  53. Amalee

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I actually use it everyday because if i don’t, i get panda eyes…. waterproof is a must for me :]

  54. Vonvon

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    In our hot and humid weather, I have no choice but to wear waterproof mascara whenever possible, that is almost everyday. I wouldn’t want to end up looking like a panda at the end of the day.

  55. Nicole

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I use Maybelline Full n Soft waterproof everyday–I’d prefer using a non-waterproof formula, but they never seem to hold the curl in my lashes! I’m blessed with long lashes and cursed because they’re stick-straight, impossible to curl lashes!

  56. Jackie

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    i used to wear it daily but its a hassle to take off and i feel like more eyelashes fall out when i use it.. i love my lashes and i don’t wanna cause them to fall out! i stick to regular unless its a special occasion

  58. Carmen

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    NO! I hate WP mascaras – too hard to remove and not worth the bother and effect compared to regular mascaras.

  59. avroys

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I use waterproof mascara only on occasions that call for it. I prefer smudgeproof mascara

  60. sunny

    Tuesday, December 1, 2009

    I dont because I use diorshow mascara and it doesnt smudge at all and it doesnt flake so no need to use the waterproof stuff! well maybe when its 105 out but other than that nope lol

  61. Marina

    Wednesday, December 2, 2009

    Never. First, i think it may dry out your lashes, second, i dont really need it, i never wear any makeup to the beach or pool.

  62. Tavia

    Wednesday, December 2, 2009

    I never use waterproof mascara :) I dont need for waterproof power, the normal mascaras are just fine for me :)

  63. kpenn09

    Wednesday, December 2, 2009

    Ughhh I hate waterproof mascaras. I find that they flake and never lengthen my lashes the way non-waterproof does. I especially find them annoying to remove, as no method that I’ve found prevents me from pulling out some lashes and waking up with raccoon eyes in the morning.

  64. Shay

    Wednesday, December 2, 2009

    its a weird question. I thot we shld always wear waterproof. Never know if we wld be caught in the rain or cry (from cutting onions or putting eye drops if not really crying).

    Seems like people don’t wear wp becoz they can’t find a good eye makeup remover? I use Clinique’s take the day off and Lancome’s bi-facil…they’re fab!

  65. Catherine

    Wednesday, December 2, 2009

    Daily. The non-waterproof ones smudge like crazy on me. =/

    The worst part? I didnt even cry! Lol

    Almost never, it’s a pain to remove, even with remover!!

    Yes. I only trust waterproof mascara on my lashes. I feel more secure with it.
