Tatler recommends these tubing mascaras for the ultimate lash lift that’s easy to put on and take off

Traditional mascaras can often fall short on their promises. Even those labelled “long-wearing” end up smearing by the end of the day, leading to those dreaded “panda eyes.” Introducing tubing mascaras—a surefire way to make sure your eye makeup stays in place until you end your day. Their unique waterproof formula wraps around each lash, providing a smudge-proof, waterproof finish. 

When choosing a tubing mascara, there are a few factors to consider, from the wand shape to the formula itself. To simplify your search, we’ve rounded up the best tubing mascaras on the market. 

Whether to curl, lengthen, or simply for the convenience of easy removal, here are our top picks for the best tubing mascaras.
