No. 9: Bare Escentuals Weather Everything Mascara, $15

TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 8.8*
Why it's great: "It really is waterproof, contact lens safe, clump-free and flake-proof," readers say. "It stayed on at the pool, the lake and in the ocean," another reader says. "Lashes are thick, long and last all day." And even though she shouldn't, one reader says, "I can even sleep in the stuff and not wake up with raccoon eyes."

I'm surprised to see Great Lash as a worst mascara! It's one of my favorites!

I really love Lancome. Seems to be a all around great mascara. Waterproof and Regular mascara. Love it.

Looks like excellence in the waterproof versions of some great mascara. Not surprised that the L'oreal Double Extend and Voluminous made it onto the list. The regular versions are great too.

I have to agree with a lot of these, I do however love the Great Lash mascara in the non waterproof formula. I have also had really good experience with Maybelline Falsies mascara. Ive heard some reviews on it that were good, some really bad but ive had no problems out of it!
