Looking for a mascara that won't budge? Waterproof mascaras are here to save the day. These long-lasting formulas are designed to withstand tears, sweat, rain, and even an occasional swim. The best waterproof mascara for you comes down to what you need it to survive and the finish you want: everyday smudge-proof wear calls for a different formula than a beach day or a wedding where you know tears are coming. Look for wands with dense micro-bristles for volume and lift, or slim, precise brushes if you're after length and definition on shorter lashes.

Whether you're headed to the beach, attending a wedding, or just want a smudge-proof solution for everyday wear, we stock some ofthe best wash-off waterproof mascaras andwaterproof mascara removers to make this an easy task. So, keep browsing to discover some of the best waterproof mascaras ever.

The Best Waterproof and Smudge-Proof Mascaras

Best Overall, Affordable

Providing a lasting fanning effect, theMaybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Waterproof Mascara holds the title of one of the best waterproof and smudge-proof mascaras in Australia and New Zealand at an affordable price point.

Best for Buildable Volume

MAC Stack Waterproof Mascara features the Superstack Mega Brush and delivers endlessly layerable volume and length in a smudge-proof, 24-hour wear formula that stays weightless even after multiple coats. Apply a single layer for natural definition, or keep building for a more dramatic look, without the clumping other buildable formulas can suffer from.

Best for Lift Without Clumps

Lancôme Lash Idôle Waterproof Mascara features a specially designed brush with 125 different bristle sizes and 360 micro-bristles, built to coat every single lash. The gel emulsion formula contains four times less wax than other mascaras for an ultra lightweight, clump-free feel that still lasts up to 24 hours.

Best for the Beach

A trip to the beach requires a water-resistant mascara that doesn't sting your eyes the second it comes into contact with salt water. Try theM.A.C Cosmetics Extended Play Giga Black Lash, it has one of the best waterproof formulas with an impressive 16-hour wear time, and its small, slim brush grabs even the smallest lashes.

Best High-End

Some people have no compromise regarding the quality of their waterproof mascara. High-end mascaras offer lasting formulas in innovative packaging. We recommend theLancôme Hypnôse Doll Eyes Mascara, Waterproof, which comes with a specialty wand for a wide-eyed look. TheEstée Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Waterproof Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara is an excellent option for those who need long-hour wear, with a replenishing formula that lasts 10 hours.
