Panda eyes are probably the bane of every oily girls’ existence.
I’ve tried a number of mascaras, even waterproof ones, and nothing seems to withstand the deep-fryer that is my skin type.
You could literally deep fry chips on my face at 1am on a 30°C night and would save yourself a trip to McDonald's.
Well, you’ll have to start waiting in line at Macca's because say hello to tubing mascara!
After decades of panda eyes, all I can say is seriously, where the hell have you been all my life?
What Is Tubing Mascara?
Beginning as a beauty trend in Japan, tubing mascaras have revolutionised the way we use mascara worldwide.
They've been around for a while, but they're still the best alternative to regular and waterproof mascaras in 2024.
Tubing mascaras use polymers to wrap around each lash in a water-resistant tube, unlike regular and waterproof mascaras that simply coat the lashes with dark pigments.
These tubes will stop your mascara from literally moving anywhere. It will last all day, all night, even on the oiliest eyelids.
Yes, I have woken up in the morning with a “friend” next to me, and yes I forgot to remove my makeup, and yes my lashes still looked fabulous.
Tubing mascaras are also completely safe for sensitive eyes and for those that wear contact lenses, like me.
My Favourite Tubing Mascara.
Ever since I tried Estée Lauder Sumptuous Rebel Length + Lift Mascara- Black I’ve literally never looked back.
And working in beauty, I try out A LOT of mascaras.
It’s EXTREMELY long-wearing is the definition of sweat-proof.. But not only that, it gives you lashes length and lift.
If that doesn’t convince you, here's some more details on this tubing mascara:
The oil-free, 24-hour long-wearing formula adds length, lift and separation.
It's smudge- and flake-resistant, and stands up in sweat and humidity too.
The sleek brush with tapered tip helps to reach every last lash (even the tiny ones).
It can be worn with lash extensions and contact lenses too.
