Product description
What’s included: one 0.28 oz / 8 ml tube of Clinique High Impact Waterproof Mascara and the integrated applicator wand.
Formula and materials: a waterproof, buildable emulsion designed to add length and volume. The wand uses a twisted wire comb design to separate and coat lashes. The formula is 100% fragrance-free, allergy-tested, and ophthalmologist-tested. It’s formulated to be safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
How to use: sweep the wand from root to tip to coat lashes, layering a second pass for added drama. The texture is intended to build without heavy clumping when applied in light strokes. For removal, use a dedicated makeup remover or cleansing wipe designed for waterproof eye makeup; gentle oil-based removers are effective if needed.
Safety and brand notes: developed with dermatological guidance, the product aligns Clinique’s skin- and eye-safety standards. The packaging lists the tube size (0.28 oz / 8 ml) and usage tips for sensitive-eye users.
Pros
- Long-wearing through humidity, tears, and sweat
- Buildable length and volume without heavy weight
- Ophthalmologist- and allergy-tested; contact-lens safe
Cons
- Wand may feel large for some lash types
- Can clump if over-applied
- May require a specific remover for full removal
VerdictDelivers reliable, long-wearing volume and separation while remaining gentle on sensitive eyes. The twisted-wire brush helps define each lash and the formula layers without heavy flaking. It performs well in humidity, sweat, and tears, though application can clump if overdone and some users may prefer a smaller wand.

Kept My Eyes Dry on My Wedding Day
A genuine waterproof — I used it on my wedding day and it didn’t cause irritation. I have a nickel allergy and feared watering, but it performed well. I recommend it.

Finally a Waterproof Brown
Found a waterproof brown option from a brand I trust and it held up on a rainy trip with no running or fading.

Irritated and Clumpy
The wand felt oversized for my lashes, application clumped, and it irritated my eyes.

Reliable Nightly Removal
No clumps or smudging during the day and it removed easily at night with a remover.

Perfect for a Long Water Day
Wore it at an all-day water park — it stayed on, didn’t flake, and didn’t make my sensitive eyes itch. Smooth application and a good wand.

Long-Lasting, Clump-Free Coverage
Gives noticeable length and separation without clumping. The waterproof finish stayed intact through heat and humidity and didn’t smudge or flake. It applies smoothly, layers well for more drama, and leaves lashes that look fuller while still feeling lightweight.

Survived My Heaviest Crying
I tested this during a very emotional week after my mother passed. My lashes are light so I wear mascara daily; I needed something that wouldn’t streak with constant tears. It stayed put through repeated blotting and wiped off at night with makeup remover; I reapplied the next morning.

Stays Put Through Practice
As a competitive swimmer, this impressed me — it didn’t run during intense training. It wasn’t flawless after practice but there were no smears, runs, or clumps. I’ll buy it again for workouts.

All-Day Hold for Sensitive Eyes
Lashes looked longer and fuller and the formula lasted all day without moving. With very sensitive eyes and contacts, this was the first waterproof that truly stayed in place for hours.

Good Performance, Questionable Value
Adds length and volume and is gentle on sensitive eyes. It’s smudge-proof, but given the tube size I’m not sure it outperforms other options enough to repurchase right away.
