I have been using Thrive mascara for about 5 years and LOVE it! I have tried many different ones and I keep going back to Thrive as my favorite! It’s a tubular mascara so it’s not waterproof but it’s water resistant. It comes off in rubber-like pieces. I love how it thickens and lengthens my lashes. I have yet to find one that tops it!
