bareMinerals Flawless Definition Waterproof Mascara

As mascara goes...

It's a great mascara. It's brush keeps lashes separated, it adds volume, it's very smooth. And that's where it's usefullness as a mascara ends. I shelled out $17.99 for this at the HEB Plus and relied on the reviews. So I was really disappointed after another hot (both kinds) night with BF in 100% humid Central Texas. Not as bad as the Revlon Photoready 3D - But it was almost completely off the lashes and on the skin around an inch below. Seriously disappointed. I'll use it for regular stuff, but the quest for a really waterproof, sweatproof, smudgeproof mascara continues. If I can find the BAD Gal stuff, I might give it a try. The other BM products I did buy (figured I'd give it a shot) were the blush and some other products and starter kit. Love the blush.

Revlon PhotoReady 3D Volume Waterproof Mascara

As long as you don't perspire...

Supposed to be waterproof. The day after wearing it on a warm day, I went to take it back; convinced I'd purchased a non-waterproof product. But it says on the package it's waterproof. It's NOT. Not by a far sight. Here in Central Texas, with an average 100% humidity ADD hyperhydrosis and a seriously intense romantic interlude, I looked like Tammy Faye Bakker on any Sunday in the '80s. This gets a huge thumbs down from me.
