We all need a good mascara to last us throughout the day, no matter the weather. Mascara is definitely something that can change a person’s entire look; lashes make all the difference in the world. Being in a country where it’s either so hot and humid that our makeup melts off or it rains cats and dogs, wearing waterproof mascara is just downright a necessity. Plus, waterproof mascara will actually hold you lashes’ curl for longer compared to regular mascara, and of course, nobody wants to have black streaks running down their face if and when the waterworks start. So say hello to the best waterproof mascaras in Singapore, because we all want fluttery lashes that can weather any weather; rain or shine, monsoon or sweater weather.
