Best mascara for sensitive eyes

Dr. DeRosa recommends skipping waterproof mascara altogether if you have sensitive eyes. She explains that waterproof mascara is especially hard to remove, which means you have to scrub extra hard or use stronger cleansers to take it off at the end of the day. And this additional rubbing can result in irritation. Give the lash line some space. Beauty vloggers love to tell people to apply their mascara right against the lash line for best results. Not only can this cause irritation by getting product in the eyes, but it’s the perfect storm for a bacterial infection.
