Is there such an animal.? Black makes my fair skin look pasty and I need waterproof as my eyes water particularly when I'm out, suggestions gratefully received x

Maybelline Sky High, not water proof but doesn't shift at all .

@LoafofSellotape > I use this and hadn't even realised it wasn't waterproof. OP, they do it in burgandy - could that be an alternative to brown (it seems difficult to find brown mascara these days).

Yes!

I have used Max Factor 2000 calorie waterproof
Black/Brown for years if that is of use.

I too have very fair skin - thanks Irish heritage 😂 - but find this perfect as Black is far too harsh for me.

I buy mine from eBay and normally pay between £7.50 and £8.00 for a 9ml tube.

Easy to remove too but waterproof element is great as I wear it daily, rain or shine, but also when swimming abroad in the heat. 👍

Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara comes in brown

They have a new colour too which is plum. It's such a good mascara.

Pretty sure Lancôme and Clinique both do a brown, have a look at boots website

trainedopossum · 15/01/2025 16:53

I use this Chanel one: www.chanel.com/gb/makeup/p/194220/le-volume-de-chanel-waterproof-volume-mascara/
I'd love to find something less expensive but it doesn't smear, transfer or irritate my eyes so I'm sticking with it for now.

TheDogsMother · 15/01/2025 17:07

Boots No. 7 do brown.

savvy7 · 15/01/2025 18:26

Another vote for the sky high mascara. It's better than the Lancome.one I used to use
