So I have this old loreal double extension mascara tube which is the best shit I have ever used and it is running out and I need a replacement. Specifically, the best part about it – it continues normally and doesn’t go away until I shower, it doesn’t transfer to my fingers if I touch it after it’s dry, so it doesn’t run off with my oily face which makes me a raccoon, it forms like a little plastic tube around my eyelashes that really only comes off small tubes when wet so it is not waterproof, but it can last 2 days between showers which is very simple and I use it exclusively now. What I don’t like is a double wand where step 1 is white lash primer and step two is the right thing and I only use step 2 and it is not one ton in the tube since half the space is used for step 1 Has anyone ever used a common mascara that behaves this way?
So you’re looking for a mascara type called a tubing mascara. I’ve yet to try one, but definitely looked into these before and do want to try them once I’ve used through some of my open mascaras.
A cheap option would be the Essence Bye Bye Panda Eyes. A bit more money but still drugstore is the Nyx Doll Eye one.
One of the more popular expensive options out there is THRIVE CAUSEMETICS Liquid Lash Extension Mascara.

I’ve heard Thrive is a great tubing mascara. I don’t have a ton of experience with tubing mascaras, but I’ve heard they are great!
I also have the same problem in this heat with even the best mascaras giving me a little transfer onto my bottom lid. So now I only wear waterproof when it’s hot or I’m working out. I like Lancôme Monsieur Big mascara waterproof and also Armani waterproof. There are sales on the Monsieur that also come with the lash primer for free (and also minis of both of these mascaras that are IMO a great deal as I rarely finish a tube of mascara). I realize you said you don’t use the priming side, but I have found that primers really help eliminate raccoon eyes even with non waterproof mascara.
