Do You Prefer Waterproof Mascara?

There are two types of people in this world...those who will always reach for a waterproof mascara, and those that opt for one that's easier to remove.

Waterproof mascara can be a Godsend to those who suffer from watery eyes or are prone to getting caught in the rain. Waterproof mascara tends to stay put long after the day is done, providing longwear and great lashes throughout the day.

But of course, with longwear comes a bit of a mission getting it off. You'll probably find an oil based eye makeup remover the easiest way to remove waterproof mascara.

And so then there are the people that prefer washable mascara. Maybe they don't rub their eyes as much, or suffer from hayfever. Maybe they prefer the ease of removal?

Which is why it's very cool when a brand offers an amazing mascara formula in both finishes - waterproof and washable!

And we just so happen to have the upcoming release from Maybelline at BRHQ, in both finishes, ready to send to reviewers!

You won't find these babies in store until March 1st, so if you land a spot on this trial team, you'll be among the first in the country to try them!

The Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara delivers full volume and limitless length. The innovative and exclusive Flex Tower mascara brush bends to volumize and extend every single lash from root to tip.

The formula is infused with bamboo extract and fibers for long, full & lightweight lashes, that don't flake or smudge and it's been allergy tested, Ophthalmologist tested and is suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers!

So, fancy taking one of these gorgeous mascaras out for a spin? Then you better get chatting to us below! Tell us whether you'd like to review the WASHABLE or the WATERPROOF version, and also, why not fill us in on what you most want from a mascara...length, volume or do you want it all?!

I prefer washable mascara as I like to give my lashes lots and lots of coats, I love making my lashes look thicker & longer and washable is so much easier to wash off at the end of the day.... I would love the opportunity to give this a try.

The majority of the time I prefer washable mascara for the ease of removal. I like the sound of the bamboo extract as it seems like it would be quite gentle on your lashes.

I find it so hard to find a good mascara, especially one that doesn't flake off into eyes or cause irritation. I would love to trial one of these mascara's, I'm a washable girl, however, maybe waterproof would be better? Oh, the decisions :)

I am a little bit obsessed with mascara, some might say a little too obsessed, but, my eyelashes are my favourite feature on my face so I like to accentuate them. Not a fan of waterproof mascara as I have heard it can damage your lashes so always use non waterproof ones. Can't risk snapping my lashes. I've heard amazing things about this mascara. Would absolutely love to try it!

Due to wearing contact lenses, I always go for the waterproof mascara, which is sometimes harder to find. I like the Maybelline brand, and would love to give the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High mascara a go.,

Ooh I have seen this beauty online and was wondering when it was coming to NZ, this is one mascara that I would love to try. Would love to trial the washable formula please if chosen :-) I like volume and length in a mascara especially if they're Sky High.

Washable and I want it all!!! ;) I love mascara, it is the one makeup product I wear nearly every day. I absolutely love when you find that mascara that adds volume or length without clumping of flaking, so if this beauty does both then I am super super keen pretty pretty please My current mascara brush is so rubbish, I have washed an old wand and use that to apply it, so please rescue me from my own bad choices haha

I get off the train heading to work and my eyes start watering in the Wellington wind so waterproof is a must for me! I usually pick mascaras that are an all rounder - length and volume... but I especially need the lengthening with my mascara as my lashes are quite short

I cry when I laugh too much and sweat when I'm doing something that gets the heart rate going. Waterproof for life. In saying all this would luff to be considered for this trial please and thank you
