Its almost embarassing to ask such a trivial question on this forum, but I cant think where else to ask it

What is the best waterproof mascara you can recommend that will survive a few hours on the water and lots of sunscreen without ending up looking like a panda?

Not that I use mascara to go kiting, but last year I ended up with the panda look after post-work sessions, having forgotten that I had put on (supposedly waterproof) mascara in the morning. Not a good look when chatting up that gorgeous new guy you met after your session, and not knowing about the panda eyes till you looked in the rear-view mirror driving home later.....

Trying to answer this sensibly for you.

You could suss out what the ladies doing water ballet use, they're allway's made up in the water, though i could only imagine they would need some grade A pain stripper to remove it after.

Not being a girl, goth, emo or trany I can't really offer any more advise than that

If you can do a kiteloop, im pretty sure any guy would have you, even if you look like a pig.

Loreal Voluminous 4x waterproof with ceramid R!
I use it sometimes and I never had a problem with that....

You could try to negociate with Loreal maybe you get signed if you promote a mascara that even sticks to your lashes while kiting, could be a good commercial!

I have always found just having long dark beautiful lashes naturally covers it pretty well.

If you can kite loop, all you need to do is chow the landing on one to wipe that mascara clean off...

Well thanks guys and gals for your constructive, or helpful, or humerous responses

Thank goodness the bum and boobs are not too bad, and that I have no nails to break, otherwise I might be even more paranoid about my panda eyes

While I havent yet had the balls try an airborne kiteloop, I regularly do looping carving turns, does that count?

And Milko, Idiot, and Tightlines- your'e all very sweet (I think)

Heya Undies

Doing a standard (low level) kiteloop is actually far easier than doin a looping carving turn - the feel of power isnt as strong because your not connected to the water... and the power is diffused upwards.

I have a copy of progression advanced you can borrow, that breaks it all down frame by frame and makes it easy, I got it on the first attempt !!

Send a pm if your keen - no balls necessary, just wear a paper bag

Im scared of any Panda that can Kitesurf

They kicked Alex Sans out of the forum because he was advertising without being a site sponsor. Are you a site sponsor? then Green Pat will ban you and we all will miss you.

Or just do what I do: crash so much that any trace of wearing a mascara just disappears completely

That could be it, I'm just not trying hard enough.

I am determined to nail some backroll kiteloops this season, after figuring out how to use my new surf kiteboard (which I suspect will involve lots of being dumped and body dragging through breakers to get the board back), so any mascara run may well be gone by the end of my sessions!

Roll on summmer....

{Not sure about the paper bag comment STW but have to watch my progression dvd's again soon}
