mascara for crying sessions.

girl, if you're looking for a mascara that can survive a whole emotional breakdown, i got you. you need something that won’t betray you mid-cry and leave you looking like a raccoon.

go for a waterproof, smudge-proof, and life-proof mascara—because let’s be real, sometimes the tears just come out of nowhere. some solid ones.

• maybelline lash sensational waterproof – affordable, jolds a curl, and doesn’t budge.

• l'oréal lash paradise waterproof – gives you volume and stays put through your sob session.

• too faced better than sex waterproof – a little pricey, but it does NOT play when it comes to staying power.

also, pro tip. if you know you’re about to have a moment, maybe skip the lower lash mascara unless you want to look like a sad indie movie character. and always keep a tissue in hand—because we cry, but we cry cute.
