Waterproof mascara?

Can anyone recommend an inexpensive waterproof mascara (for a funeral so lots of tears) that really is extremely waterproof and rub proof. Thanks

I don’t like waterproof mascaras. I’ve got an NYX waterproof top coat which goes on top of your normal mascara. I find that good.

Rub proof might be a problem. Dab your eyes with a tissue. M and S waterproof mascara is pretty good. Or Max Factor.

If you can find a UK seller on eBay then heroine kiss me mascara
This was a Reddit review of it
"The regular version is bulletproof. It is immortal. It laughs at your feeble cleansing oil. Water and pressure only made it stronger. I had to break out my asian eye makeup remover to get it off my hand, and even then it took two rounds of it and a foam cleanser. I tried to remove it with my western cleansing oil and it ate it and asked for seconds. It would be my mascara of choice for a marathon viewing of Schindler's List followed by Bambi and Titanic. If the end of the world came, all that would be left is dust, Keith Richards, and Heroine Make Long and Curl regular Mascara. I can't imagine what the Super Waterproof is like, and I'm honestly afraid to try."

What a huge effort to go to for a basic waterproof mascara! Most brands are fine and available in the High Street, thank God! Reddit or no Reddit recommendation - for which they were probably paid!

L’Oréal double extension waterproof mascara. Has got me through swimming, funerals and mums cancer treatment.

Bubbles - I'm recommending it because I've also used it, and if you search, there are thousands of reviews on it. It's one of the best about having tried many. I don't think it's an effort to type the name into google Confused

Ollivander - this sounds perfect! I will have a look. I might be back on this board after the funeral asking for ideas about how to get it off!! Thank you
Glitterburps, Bubbles and ginger thank you

I've used the Boots one in the gold tube for years for swimming and sweaty gym classes. Plus it comes off easily with warm soap and water which was the main draw for me as I don't use chemical make up removers.
