How do I stop this from happening by the end of the day?!
Better than Sex is awful, one of the few mascaras that smudges and flakes on me no matter what I do. Try Mac Stack, Benefit They're Real, Diorshow or any by Maybelline and you'll see the difference.

What do we think of Aldi makeup?
I used that one too. It’s a dupe of Benefit They’re Real and performs ok. I have moved over to tubing mascaras because I’m oily and use drops throughout the day and don’t want to encourage smudging. I still might get another anyway because I remember liking it.

mascara tears
I wonder if brown mascara would look better if it runs? I'm only suggesting that because I recently purchased a BROWN Tinted Primer by Benefit called "They're Real," although I use it like it's mascara. It only lightly smudged after an morning spent crying through a funeral (but it still looked GOOD

Makeup for people who blink a lot?
Waterproof mascara. But if the area around your eye is oily I’d suggest taking a translucent powder and tap under your eye and on your eyelid. My mascara will transfer if I don’t do this.

Good Mascara Recommendations?
If you like a more natural look, I recently purchased a brown Tinted Primer by Benefit called "They're Real," but use it like it's mascara. The price is more than I wanted to spend ($29), but dang... it was worth it. I wear contacts and have sensitive eyes but this primer/mascara is comfortable, nat

Mascara help pleeeeeease
Second the votes for tubing mascara, my favourite is Benefit brand’s “They’re Real” mascara. It’s fantastic and doesn’t rub off during the day. Not sure what you’re doing to get it on your eyelids, sounds like a technique issue? I always put mascara on from underneath your lashes going up, not from

Wasserfeste Mascara, die *wirklich* wischfest ist?
Ich benutze seit knapp 10 Jahren They‘re Real von Benefit und hatte noch nie das Problem, dass der Mascara bröckelt oder sich absetzt, obwohl es sich nicht um einen wasserfesten Mascara handelt. Vor einigen Tagen gab es bei Notino sogar ein Angebot. Knapp 30 Euro finde ich persönlich zu teuer.

Benefits BADgal BANG. This is such a beautiful mascara, won’t smudge, flake or clump (and you have a few colour options) - I know someone else recommended They’re Real personally I found that one smudged on me bit the BADgal bounce is the sort of the best of both worlds with the dual sided spoolie
