Neutrogena Healthy Volume Waterproof Mascara — Black/Brown 08, Lash-Plumping with Olive Oil for Fuller, Clump-Free Lashes (0.21 oz

Neutrogena Healthy Volume Lash-Plumping Waterproof Mascara is a waterproof, conditioning volumizing formula that builds fuller-looking lashes without clumps, smudges, or flakes.

This mascara combines a rich, waterproof formula with a large, visible-volume brush to coat and plump each lash. Infused with olive oil to help bulk the core of lashes and sweet almond to condition the outer surface, it aims to deliver noticeable volume while remaining gentle enough for sensitive eyes and contact-lens wearers. The compact 0.21 oz tube is travel-friendly and removes easily with an oil-free eye makeup remover.

How does this mascara add volume without clumping?

The formula is designed to penetrate the hair shaft while the oversized brush deposits pigment on the exterior, creating a fuller appearance without heavy buildup. The brush separates lashes as it layers color so volume appears even and defined rather than clumped.

• Super-sized visible-volume brush for even coating
• Rich, waterproof formula that resists flaking and smudging
• Olive oil helps plump the lash core for thicker-looking strands
• Designed to build up gradually for controlled volume

Is this safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers?

This mascara has been dermatologist- and ophthalmologist-tested and is formulated to minimize irritation for sensitive eyes. It’s suitable for contact-lens wearers when applied as directed and removed gently.

• Ophthalmologist- and dermatologist-tested formula
• Gentle conditioning ingredients like sweet almond oil
• Recommended removal with oil-free eye makeup remover
• No harsh rubbing necessary—soft cleansing protects the eye area

How long does the waterproof formula last, and how do I remove it?

The waterproof formulation helps lashes keep their shape and finish through humidity, sweat, and light water exposure. For clean removal without tugging, use an oil-free eye makeup remover to dissolve the waterproof pigments gently.

• Resists smudging and flaking for extended wear
• Holds curl and volume in wet or humid conditions
• Easily removed with Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover
• Removal method reduces lash breakage and irritation

Which shade and finish should I expect from Black/Brown 08?

Black/Brown 08 is a softer, slightly warm-dark hue that enhances lash definition without the intensity of jet black. It’s a versatile shade that suits daytime looks and provides depth while appearing more natural than a pure black finish.

• Semi-soft dark brown with black undertones for depth
• Matte-to-satin finish that avoids harshness
• Works well for lighter hair colors and natural makeup looks
• Buildable coverage from subtle to dramatic layering

Who is this for? The Neutrogena Healthy Volume Lash-Plumping Waterproof Mascara is aimed at anyone seeking conditioned, visibly fuller lashes with waterproof staying power—especially those with sensitive eyes or who wear contacts. It’s a good fit for daily wearers who want an easy-to-build volumizing effect that won’t flake or smudge and for travelers who need a compact, durable mascara that removes cleanly with a compatible oil-free remover.
