the questions of cosmetic ingredients are often kept as secrets. BUT it is believed to be some kind of fat.. not yet known if artificial or natural. Fat is suspected as this secret ingredient as it repels water.

Most waterproof mascaras have silica or a silicone base in them. For most people this is not a substance that causes irritation but in some cases, it can cause an allergic reaction. In the old days, they used animal fat as a binder.

For those wanting something that does not cause allergic reactions, I would suggest you do research, or perhaps use an organic mascara.

Waterproof mascara is basically made from the same ingredients as standard mascara but it has polymers in it. Polymers make this cosmetic product water resistant. Most mascaras contain mineral oils and waxes that come from animal and vegetable fats. That adds some of the waterproofing quality. Despite the many variations, all formulas contain the same basic elements: pigmentation, oils, and waxes.

I don't think you can really make one, but you can buy one!

If you have a mascara that you love to use but is not waterproof, a lot of the time they also make a waterproof version - look for it. But if they do not make one then you could try buying a waterproofing clear top coat mascara.

the presence of fats, oils, or waxes, as all three of those are hydrophobic - that is, resistant to moisture

Why should you use Maybelline mascara?

Well overall, mascara is one of the makeup products that you dont have to spend an excessive amount on because they arent much different to those 30 dollar mascaras. Maybelline is one of the most popular drugstore brands and they make excellent mascara. I have to say, I was disappointed in the Maybelline The Falsies mascara, but their Colossal Volum Express waterproof mascara was really good, and their Great Lash is a huge hit. It's a good brand, comparable to any of those high end mascaras. Also, it's just so cheap!! It's never more that 10 or 11 dollars.

What is the best cosmetic mascara?

The best mascara I've ever used is the Maybelline The Falsies in the color Drama Black. I love it! It works better if you curl your eyelashes first. But it is waterproof so you might want make-up remover if you don't already have it.
