What's the difference between waterproof and smudge proof mascara?

Can washable mascara still be smudge-proof at the same time? If I always have dark rings under my eyes at the end of the day, will waterproof mascara work as well as smudge proof? Please recommend me the best mascara that does not smudge even on extremely hot n humid weather (South East Asia).What's the difference between waterproof and smudge proof mascara?
water proof stays on in water. smudge proof stays on if you rub your eyes. You'd probably want smudge proof unless your planning on getting your face wet. If there is a smudge AND water proof one THAT will be your best choice. %26lt;3dottWhat's the difference between waterproof and smudge proof mascara?
Water proof mascara prevents it from coming off when in contact with water and smudge proof mascara prevents it from being smudged like when you touch it
waterproof doesnt come off in the water at all and hardly comes off w/o makeup remover. smudge proof will come off in the water, but i found that it kinda flakes off instead of getting all smudged around your eyes, it also comes off easier with just soap and water.
waterproof won't come off with just water but might come of if you say cry then rub you eyes really hard or will leave those rings if you just rub yuo eyes, smudge proof won't come off if you rub you eyes but might very well come of if you swim in it! hope i helped clear it up a lil for ya!
smudge kind is the worst if your swimming or rubbing your eyes it sticks onto your eyelashes and is very uncomfortable. waterproof is the best!


GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!
any of the masacaras on the site i listed but probably you shouldnt rub your eyes during the day and in summer waterproof is the way to go. thx for the 2 points!!!!!
Waterproof wont come off ~ at all! and smudge proof is a gimic to get you to buy it so that once you do buy it, and you find that when you DO cry, its runs everywhere! LoL. Dont bother with smudge proof!!
Waterproof mascara won't run if you cry or swim. Smudge-proof won't run if you wipe your eyes.
I use smudge proof and it is horrible. It really does smudge, water proof is probably way better. If you were planning on buying waterproof, good choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!
