Hit me with your best waterproof mascara that I can wear whilst swimming and sitting around the villa pool so I can feel a little more attractive on holiday than a hot, fat, sweaty menopausal mum 😬

I just remembered Soap and Glory peaches and clean is a great wash off cleanser and removes waterproof makeup gently.

I've been using the maybelline sky high waterproof mascara and it's so great that I can't actually take it off. Worn it from 6am every day during every heat wave until 7pm at night and not a smudge.

Any advice on how to remove it though? Don't fancy losing any more eyelashes.

Baby oil always works for me

Clinique take the day off cleansing balm for make up remover. Brilliant stuff and you only need a tiny amount so a pot lasts for ages

MACstack mascara for a waterproof mascara. You can layer it to go for the look you want

It is a bugger to remove though!

Which is why lash dye might be a more suitable alternative.
