FAQs

How do I get the best 'sky high' length with this mascara?

For maximum length, start by wiggling the brush at the very base of your lashes and slowly pull it upwards to the tips. Repeat this motion, building thin layers, rather than applying one thick coat. Curling your lashes before application can also enhance the lifting effect.

Is this mascara safe for sensitive eyes or contact lens wearers?

Maybelline products undergo allergy testing. However, individuals with sensitive eyes or those who wear contact lenses should always perform a patch test or consult with their ophthalmologist if they experience irritation. Waterproof formulas can sometimes be more challenging to remove, which might cause irritation if not removed gently.

What's the best way to remove this waterproof mascara?

The most effective way to remove this waterproof mascara is by using an oil-based or bi-phase eye makeup remover. Apply a generous amount to a cotton pad, press it gently onto your closed eyelid for 10-20 seconds to allow the product to break down the mascara, then gently wipe away. Avoid harsh rubbing.

How often should I replace my Maybelline Sky High Waterproof Mascara?

For optimal performance and hygiene, it is recommended to replace your mascara every three to six months after opening. This helps prevent bacterial buildup and ensures the formula remains fresh and effective.

Does Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara come in non-waterproof or other colors?

Yes, while this guide focuses on the Waterproof Black variant, the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara line is available in a standard (non-waterproof) formula and various other shades, as well as primers and glitter top coats. Check the Maybelline product range for other options like Brown, Blue Mist, or Cosmic Black.

Troubleshooting

Mascara is clumping on lashes.

Wipe excess product from the brush tip before application. Apply in thin coats, allowing each to dry briefly before adding another. If clumping persists, the mascara might be drying out and may need replacement.

Mascara is difficult to remove.

As a waterproof formula, this mascara requires an oil-based or bi-phase eye makeup remover. Apply remover to a cotton pad, press gently over closed eyes for 10-20 seconds to allow it to dissolve the mascara, then wipe away gently.

Mascara is smudging or flaking.

Ensure your eyelids are free of excess oil before application. If you have oily eyelids, use a primer or setting powder. While designed to be waterproof, extreme rubbing or very oily skin can sometimes challenge even the most durable formulas. Ensure the cap is always tightly sealed to prevent drying, which can lead to flaking.

Mascara appears dry or doesn't apply smoothly.

This often indicates the mascara is old or has been exposed to air. Ensure the cap is always tightly sealed. Mascara should typically be replaced every 3-6 months after opening. Do not add water or other liquids to revive it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Durability: Stays on through sweat, humidity, and water without smudging.
  • Dramatic Length & Volume: Visibly lengthens and adds volume to lashes, opening up the eyes.
  • Intense Color: Delivers a true, deep black pigment for maximum impact.
  • Resists Flaking: Maintains a clean look without shedding particles throughout the day.

Cons

  • Requires Specific Removal: Waterproof formula often necessitates an oil-based or bi-phase makeup remover for gentle and effective removal.
  • Potential for Clumping: Over-application or letting coats dry too much between applications might lead to clumping.
  • Limited Flexibility: Due to its waterproof nature, lashes might feel stiffer compared to non-waterproof formulas.
  • Drying Out: Like all mascaras, it can dry out over time, especially if not sealed properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup (First Use):

Upon first opening, the mascara is ready for use. Ensure the wand is fully coated with product by gently swirling (not pumping) it inside the tube.

Compatibility:

  • This mascara is designed for use on natural eyelashes. It can be worn with contact lenses, but individuals with very sensitive eyes should patch test or consult with an ophthalmologist.
  • Makeup Compatibility: Works well with most eyeliners, eyeshadows, and primers. If using a lash primer, apply it before the mascara.

Care and Maintenance for Longevity:

  • Prevent Drying: Always ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use. Air exposure is the main cause of mascara drying out.
  • Avoid Pumping: Do not pump the wand in and out of the tube, as this pushes air into the tube, drying out the formula and potentially introducing bacteria.
  • Storage: Store the mascara at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat.
  • Hygiene: Mascara is a personal hygiene product. Do not share it with others. Replace your mascara every three to six months, or sooner if it changes texture, smell, or if you experience an eye infection. If the product appears dry, do not add water or saliva, as this can introduce bacteria and compromise the formula.
