Re: [h-cost] Mascara advice
My advice would be to look for stuff that says it's suitable for contact lens wearers; that should be tear-proof.

[h-cost] Mascara Advice
I like the Tarte 4-day stay mascara. It's pricey, but it stands up to my allergy eyes, and I've even gone swimming with no smears. Considering that one tube has lasted me almost a year, it's worth the price. ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
Re: [h-cost] Mascara Advice
For safety sake, you shouldn't keep a mascara for more than 6 months; many opthomologists suggest that 3 months is safer. Bacteria can build up in the package and give you a nasty eye infection.
