I used this mascara when doing my cousin's wedding makeup. She is extremely emotional when it comes to weddings, birthdays etc, so we always expect a huge amount of tears from her.lol. Anyways, on her wedding day, she had no problems with having "panda eyes" or "raccoon eyes" after crying. The mascara glided on easily and effectively and set after a few seconds, leaving her lashes looking long and full of volume.
