e.l.f. Waterproof Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara

MSRP: $3.00 Size: 0.25 oz/7.5 g. This e.l.f. mascara held up under all scenarios with no smudging, flaking, or clumping. It added lots of length and some curl and volume. It also had probably the best wand of all mascaras tested to get to my bottom lashes. It's shorter that your usual wand and makes getting the hard to reach inner (top and bottom) corners a breeze.
