Finding the right mascara for your lashes is hard, but finding a formulation that's just as good for the warmer months is even more challenging because you have heat, humidity, sweat, and whatever else to deal with. For those looking for an extra budge-proof option that can withstand it all, look no further than tubing mascara.
"Tubing mascara is made of polymers that coat each individual lash giving a bit more noticeable separation between each lash," explains New York-based makeup artist Lauren O'Leary. It provides all the benefits of traditional mascara (think: length, volume, curl, and definition), but it's designed to be smudge- and flake-free and can only be removed with a splash of warm water and gentle rub.
As a devoted tubing mascara user myself, I've decided to share the most effective formulas that I've tried, along with some other T&C-loved picks. Here, the best tubing mascaras to add to your makeup bag.
