Summer is a bit like the season in which either mascara is banned because it tends to run down the face, or replaced by a waterproof formula that resists despite water, sweat, unwanted scratches and the vagaries of life. Basically, it’s a bit of a lifesaver for the summer season! And while all brands offer their own formula, well… not all are the same. Because in addition to lasting all day, it must also curl and lengthen the lashes, add volume and, above all, it must do all this without forming clumps!
Are we asking too much? Possibly. But despite all this, have we found products that do their job perfectly and meet our needs? Well yess …
The most exclusive: waterproof mascara Kush by Milk Makeup
Kush by Milk Makeup was one of these the brand’s most anticipated products upon its arrival in France. And frankly, we are not disappointed! It has a volumizing, conditioning and waterproof formula; in addition, the heart-shaped fibers of its brush allow you to obtain volume and length without the tripping effect.
PS: It contains cannabis seed oil derived from hemp, but don’t worry, you won’t end up getting high.
Best value for money: waterproof mascara Sport by Eyeko
Even though it won the Allure Best of Beauty Award in 2015 (that doesn’t make us any younger), don’t let the age of this waterproof mascara from Ayeko fool you. Because in terms of efficiency… it’s perfect (haha)!
Yes, because in a single layer it allows you to obtain the equivalence of three layers, but also because its format is very easy to carry wherever you need it. Its formula guarantees an exceptional lash effect, without clumps and that lengthens the length without being oppressive. Which ultimately makes this mascara ideal for the summer season.
The most convenient: the maxi waterproof mascara mod by Kiko Milano
Don’t think that we used a Kiko mascara to increase the share of accessible products in this selection: this waterproof formula has many other advantages in stock. The main one? Its brush! Small, allows access to the smallest lashes and can even curl those located near the corner of the eye to obtain a uniform result and accompany the movement of the lashes without having to overflow and clean.
An impeccable result also due to the ultra creamy texture of this mascara, designed to guarantee a doe-like look all summer long.
