If you have been skipping mascara because of what it looks like by the end of the day, the format matters more than the brand. Tubing mascara is a different category. Liquid Lash™ Extensions Tubing Mascara wraps each lash in lightweight "tubes" that build and extend for maximum length, stays water-resistant, smudge-proof and flake-free all day, then slides off effortlessly with warm water. It holds a 4.5-star rating across 66,585 reviews. Here are five reasons to give mascara another go.

resistant, smudge-proof and flake-free all day, and it won't clump, flake or smudge. Nothing to check for under your eyes at four o'clock.

Flake-free all day. That is the whole point.

Reason 5

Eight Shades, and Black Is Not the Only Answer

The range runs to eight shades, and the two best sellers are Brynn in Rich Black and Crystal in Brown Black. If black has started to feel like too much, Whitney in Charcoal Grey defines lashes in a softer, more understated way than black and adds length and lift without the harsh contrast. It is especially flattering on thinning lashes or lighter colored hair. All eight are in the selector just below this, with Brynn picked to start.
