This is the only mascara I have ever found that does not cause black smudges on the skin under my eyes - it really does stay put. It can be rubbed off the lashes with finger and thumb, or it comes off with make up remover wipes, or a hot flannel. If you want a mascara that doesn't smudge - try this one. Love it!
