I work in a humid warehouse and my drugstore mascara lasts my entire shift
WORKING in a humid warehouse can make you sweat, but according to one person, it doesn’t have to ruin your makeup day.
She said her drugstore mascara can withstand the elements and is inexpensive.
Reddit user Awtbot gave details on how she gets her blemish-free look in a post on the platform.
“It’s really amazing and it’s a tube mascara,” she raved.
Tube mascaras are known for their lengthening and defining effect on the lashes.
“I didn’t have any flaking or staining and I work in a warehouse with a humid climate. It stayed on the entire shift,” she says.
She discovered how long it lasts after making a common makeup mistake.
“I was feeling lazy, so I actually slept in it last night and woke up with almost no stains,” she said. “I know it’s frowned upon, but let’s be realistic.”
THE MAGIC MASCARA
The must-have for drugstore makeup is Maybelline’s Lash Sensational Firework Washable Mascara.
The brand has a formula that curls and fans out lashes for a glamorous look.

The product also promotes ingredients that are good for eyelashes, such as provitamin B5.
Many buyers indicated in the reviews that they were satisfied with the mascara.
“This mascara is a must-have,” someone wrote.
“It’s creamy, luxurious, and effortlessly enhances my lashes, making them look longer and fuller.
“It also gives my lashes remarkable volume, lift and separation, outperforming its more expensive counterparts. I would recommend it to anyone looking for incredible lashes.”
TRICKS OF THE TRADE
The Redditor shared some tips to get the most out of the mascara.
“[Tubing mascara is] “A mascara that molds to the lashes and is great for volume and length, but be careful because they can clump if you don’t apply them correctly,” she said.
“I use them with a lash primer and it works great.
“It’s also easy to remove if you wet your lashes and leave it on for a few minutes. It then slides off in little tubes instead of running and making you look like a raccoon, haha.”
Another Redditor showed how they remove mascara from tubes with the least amount of fuss.
“Tubing mascara is easier to remove if you use a warm, wet cloth,” they said.
“Hold it against your eyelids to loosen the polymer that slides off your lashes.”
