I am allergic to a lot of different eye products, so the extra $$ is worth it to me. I usually use their volumizing one and I love it, its not waterproof, but it does really well in high humidity without rubbing off or flaking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mascara-reccomendations-for-sensitive-eyes#post-259453 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 12:58:34 +0000 Adira 259453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pointybird: You're welcome!! The only thing is I find it's kind of... "watery" maybe when you put it on, so I have to kind of pat off the excess before I leave the house - otherwise when I blink, it ends up on my cheeks! Hope that makes sense. Besides that though, I love love love it! I never leave the house without it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mascara-reccomendations-for-sensitive-eyes#post-259434 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 12:45:20 +0000 plaidpants 259434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Awesome, thank you! And it's not even expensive! It's a bit more than the $8 or $9 I've been paying at the drugstore, but way better than the $20 or $30 I was thinking about spending.</p> <p>I loooove big fat long lashes. If I had the patience and/or time, I would wear fake lashes every day! I feel subhuman leaving the house every day without mascara... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mascara-reccomendations-for-sensitive-eyes#post-259400 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 12:30:40 +0000 Adira 259400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I recently (okay, maybe a year ago) realized that the mascara I used was irritating my eyes. It even caused my eyelids to become swollen! I've switched to Sephora's Advanced Lash Booster and I LOVE IT!!!!! It's the best mascara I've ever used! It makes my lashes look long and full and does NOT IRRITATE my eyes at all!!!</p> <p>Caution though: it's not waterproof.</p> <p><a href="http://www.sephora.com/advanced-lash-booster-P267400?skuId=1261973" rel="nofollow">http://www.sephora.com/advanced-lash-booster-P267400?skuId=1261973</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mascara-reccomendations-for-sensitive-eyes#post-259385 Wed, 15 Aug 2012 12:22:14 +0000 plaidpants 259385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Makeup inspired me!</p> <p>So I really LOVE mascara. I have the most pitiful lashes and before my LO was born, I wouldn't even consider leaving the house without mascara. But since having a baby, my eyes are super sensitive. They are bloodshot and irritated all the time. I'm not sure if it's due to lack of sleep, but my go-to mascara (L'Oreal Voluminous Extra Volume) seems to irritate them as well. </p> <p>Does anyone have a mascara that they love that works for sensitive eyes? I'm usually a drugstore make-up person but I'm willing to splurge for this! I don't wear contacts, but maybe something that works for contact wearers would work? I get so sad every time I look in the mirror and see my lashes. </p>
