A good waterproof mascara is exactly that — a mascara that won't budge when exposed to moisture. A great one takes it to the next level.
Those are the only ones that made it on this list. We've curated the best of the best, including updated versions of fan favourites, a French drugstore find that travelled overseas because it is just that good, and one hard-working formula that will never run — even when you are on one. One mascara is even laced with weed (but don't worry, it doesn't contain anything that will get you high). Ahead, see our picks for the best waterproof mascaras.
Eyeko Yoga Waterproof Mascara
If you loved the lengthening and long-wearing formula of the OG Eyeko Sport Mascara, you'll love the Eyeko Yoga Waterproof Mascara ($26). Yoga's formula is thinner, having more play as you comb it through your lashes with the hourglass-shaped brush.
Chanel Inimitable Waterproof Mascara
Chanel Inimitable Waterproof Mascara ($32) will give you lifted, longer, and thicker lashes with just a few flicks of your wrist.
Too Faced Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara
Too Faced Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara ($24) is the iteration of the fan-favourite that will survive moments that prove a little too wet.
Tarte Big Ego Vegan Mascara
Tarte's newest mascara, the Big Ego Vegan Mascara ($23, available April 18) will give you eyelashes that are "big, wide, and strong" — as Beyonce said in her early 2000's track almost the same name.
L'Oréal Voluminous Lash Paradise Waterproof Mascara
The hourglass-shaped brush of the L'Oréal Voluminous Lash Paradise Waterproof Mascara ($10) makes it easy to evenly apply the flake-proof formula to your outer and inner lashes.
CoverGirl Lash Blast Active Mascara
The end result of using CoverGirl Lash Blast Active Mascara ($7) is longer lashes that won't ever smudge or feather throughout the day — and we mean the entire day. It will stay on for a full eight hours at the office — even through a post-work jog.
Milk Makeup Waterproof Mascara
The hemp-laced mascara Milk Makeup Kush Waterproof Mascara ($24) will lengthen without ever feeling too heavy on thin eyelashes and wear for hours without flaking.
Lancôme Monsieur Big Waterproof Mascara
Monsieur Big Waterproof Mascara ($25) will give lashes unmatched volume without ever causing them to clump.
Maybelline New York The Falsies Push Up Angel Waterproof Mascara
Maybelline New York The Falsies Push Up Angel Waterproof Mascara ($7) will leave you with long-lasting wispy, fluttering lashes after its comb applicator separates and lifts each hair.
L'Oréal Unlimited Length and Lift Mascara
The wand of the L'Oréal Unlimited Length and Lift Mascara ($13) can be used straight, or bent at a 45-degree angle — whichever helps you get to the roots of your lashes better. It's a creamy formula that coats the lashes without lumping them together and with no flakes.
Lasting Curl Blossom Waterproof Mascara
Once Lasting Curl Blossom Waterproof Mascara ($25) sets on your lashes, it "legit does not come off," according to one POPSUGAR staffer.
