Waterproof mascara holds up in humidity, swimming and tears but needs an oil-based or dedicated remover. Washable formulas come off more easily and suit everyday wear.
Reserve waterproof formulas for events and weather where you need them. Gentle removal protects lashes, so never tug or scrub at your eyes.
