Yay for Mascara Mondays!
As a former mascara junkie and one who has tried multiple brands in the past, I have to say in the past two years, I finally settled on one drugstore fave that will be my staple product for life. Surprisingly, it doesn't get written up that much, and I'm terrified that the lack of fanfare will cause its ultimate demise and discontinuation.
L'oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara retails for around $11-$13 dollars. Not cheap by drugstore standards, but cheaper than other "tube" mascaras that can be found at Sephora's (Blinc, Fiberwig).
The product is double ended with a primer and a mascara that creates encases your lashes in tiny tubes. What I love about this product is that it is virtually smearproof, smudge proof, and water resistant.
Traditionally mascaras, even waterproof ones, have pigments that end up on my lower eye lid throughout the day. I blame my hooded eyelids which increases smudging and creasing of any eye make up.
However, I have never had problems with the Double Extend mascara. It stays put and whatever is on my lashes stay on my lashes. I even wore it throughout my hot, humid Hawaiian vacation!
Removal is super easy. You just rub your lashes between wet fingers and voila! The mascara comes off in tiny pieces with out dissolving into a goopy mess.

Okay, I would never have thought to try this but since you & I seem to have the same problemo w/ under eye smudging I'm going to have to give this a whirl :)
