best mascara for oily lashes?

[Alicenine]

I have very oily lids and lashes. Within an hour of putting mascara on I look like a raccoon; this is with no eyeliner. Please help. I have spent so much money with no luck so far.

I usually apply one coat of any standard mascara, wait for it to dry, and then layer Blinc Original Tubing Natural Definition Mascara Black  on top of it (the original is much better than the amplified version). It comes off with warm water which is really great. Using a fiber mascara is the only thing that I've found that works. Even waterproof mascara smudges on me. 

I also find that baking under the eyes helps prevent my lashes from smudging, but I need a LOT of powder.

@Alicenine I highly recommend WANDER BEAUTY - Mile High Club MascaraIt works great for not leaving me with raccoon eyes. I'd also highly recommend using a lash primer if you aren't already. My favorite is Lancôme Cils Booster XL Super-Enhancing Mascara Primer .18 oz / 5.5 ml

Ive been using too faced damn girl mascara and I love it. I have the same problem and I feel like I’m always a raccoon. I like this formula better than BTS also, I feel like my lashes are bigger and fuller with it

Hi @Alicenine,

If you have oily eyelids, I recommend looking into using an eyelash primer underneath your mascara for more staying power. I recommend the DIOR - Diorshow Maximizer 3D Triple volume plumping lash primer.

Also, make sure you're using an eyeshadow primer before applying mascara. Oily eyelids can make mascara smear easier, so if you have either an eyeshadow primer on like the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion Original or use a setting powder on the eyes, it will help keep the area oil free.

For mascara, I really like the ILIA - Limitless Lash Mascara.

 Hi @Alicenine,

I recommend trying the  Lancôme Monsieur Big Waterproof Mascara 01 Waterproof Big is The New Black .

I have found it works amazing. It does not smudge or flake on me!

Best,
Rebecca
