I am slowly making my way through and testing different waterproof mascaras to see if I can find my absolute favourite. I do have naturally long lashes which I curl before applying mascara.
The last mascara I tested was the NYX Doll Eye Mascara which you can read about here.
In this post I shall talk about two Maybelline Mascaras which I bought on Amazon.
Maybelline The Rocket Waterproof - £6.50
I've never used a brush like this, it has short silicone bristles which I have found amazing for giving lift and no clumps. I really like the formula as I only really need one coat and has a fast drying time.
A picture is worth a thousand words and I feel the my photos show what I am trying to say.
One minor drawback is that it's a little stubborn when it comes to removing make up, but I have started using coconut oil to melt away eye make up and a wipe to get rid of the mess.
This is fast becoming my favourite top lash mascara I've ever tried. I use it on my top lashes because the brush is quite wide and is sometimes difficult to apply to my lower lashes...which is where my next mascara comes in.
I keep showing people my lashes and telling them they need this mascara.

SECOND PICTURE - The Rocket on top lashes
THIRD PICTURE - Great lash on lower lashes
Maybelline Great Lash Waterproof - £4.99
This next mascara has an overall more natural look than The Rocket as the formula is thinner but I love it for my lower lashes. It has a small bristled brush and is great for delicate mascara application.
The corkscrew shape of the bristles separates lashes well and coats them evenly.
I have tried it on my top lashes and it gives a less dramatic overall look, I would only do it if I wasn't going anywhere or going to the gym.
Here's a comparison of the two mascara wands - Great Lash to the left and The Rocket on the right.

And some extra photos from my phone, how they look with and without winged liner.
I love the fact these are so affordable, I would never spend over £10 on one mascara.
Both of these have lived up to being waterproof having been drenched on the way to work on more than one occasion.
No panda eyes for me!
I feel there are a lot more Maybelline mascaras I still need to test but this is currently my favourite mascara combination I've tried so far.
What are your favourite mascaras, any other waterproof suggestions?
