Maybelline eyeliner

One: Just in time for the stiflingly humid Japanese summer, Maybelline is releasing a new waterproof mascara that will stay put even at the pool or beach. The specially designed comb applicator separates lashes better than a traditional brush, while at the same time curling and creating instant volume. Lashes stay beautifully curled for up to 18 hours.
