I'm currently recovering from a quite nasty bout of viral conjunctivitis and I've had to throw out all my mascara (broke my heart to throw out over $300 worth of mascara).

What I’m looking for is suggestions of good, but cheap mascara to use until I get the all clear from the ophthalmologist at the end of May.

Other than the swelling of the eye, I’m all clear and I’ve got 2 more weeks on my eye drops (now using them once a day).

I’m not allowed to use contacts until the all clear either.

Preferably a waterproof & smudge-proof one. I’d prefer a black one & won’t be too stressed not having my usual colours (I had indigo, glitter, green, bright blue, black and purple)

I won’t go back to my normal mascara until after I’ve gotten the all clear.

So hit me up with suggestions. Thank you in advance
