OMG I just got this mascara last week & I love it!!! Ive worn it 4 days now in this 113 degree heat wave here in LA and it never smeared one bit. Plus the feather lash look is actually attainable with this mascara.

I had that same problem with my mascara as well! I've recently discovered Lash Paradise mascara from L'Oréal it's seriously amazing and also a great dupe to the Better than Sex mascara by Too Faced!

Here is a good procedure to allow you to wear any mascara: After you do your foundation, but before eye make-up put concealer under your eyes and then use a soft fluffy brush to "bake" the concealer under they eyes by picking up lots of translucent setting powder and dusting it heavily over the concealer. Let it sit there the whole time you do eye make-up (minimum 5 min). Then dust away excess. Since I have been doing this I have avoided raccoon eyes and I have tested it with Tarte Better than Sex, Lancôme, DiorShow, Benefit, plus drugstore brands. Also this technique prevents creasing and lines in your concealer. If this still doesn't work you should upgrade to waterproof mascara.

A light dusting of powder under the eye really helps despite sounding too simple. Also Estée Lauder's little black primer works amazingly over whatever mascara you use. It seals and waterproofs so removal takes a little work

I was having issues with mascara smearing under my eyes because I have hooded eyes, and my lashes were touching my under eye area. I started using a setting powder very close up on my under eyes over my concealer, and it totally took care of the problem. Puts a nice barrier between my skin and my lashes! No more smearing at all!

My go-to is definitely the Clinique high impact mascara!! I don't even need to curl my lashes when I use it and it lasts all day.

I love Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir! I have problems with mascara flaking too, and this is my absolute holy grail!

Re: Can anyone recommend a mascara that won't flake or smear?

The stila brand huge extreme lash mascara is great! I got it as a sample and have switched to use it as my everyday from the Dior brands I used to use.

Benefit they r real mascara. Amazing results! Clinique mascara is good for sensitive skin. I sometimes use it on days when my eyes get suddenly over sensitive for no reason. Lol

Re: RE: Can anyone recommend a mascara that won't flake or smear?

I second They're Real! I'm really picky about mascara, and this is pretty much the only thing I've used for the last several years.

Re: Can anyone recommend a mascara that won't flake or smear?

Urban Decay Perversion and Benefit Roller Lash has been great for me with no clumping, flaking, or smearing. 

Re: Can anyone recommend a mascara that won't flake or smear?

Hi! Right now I'm loving Ciaté London Wonderwand Mascara - lots of volume and one of the only mascaras that STAYS PUT ALL DAY. I have oily lids and nearly everything raccoons me, so I was grateful to discover this one. 😉
