Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara

I have a problem with having REALLY STRAIGHT eyelashes. But they are long and when I curl them, they look great! The problem is that using non-waterproof mascara causes my lashes to lose their curl and start falling down straight again. Therefore, I always use waterproof mascara on my top lashes. This stuff is AMAZING for really holding my curl, and I pair it with other waterproof mascaras to get the right look. This can get clumpy, so I use it sparingly. Also, I feel like this tube doesn't last long before it gets kind of thick and dry, so it's not the best value. Other mascaras last months but I find myself purchasing this one more frequently. It is also very hard to get off. I use Estee Lauder "Take it Away" in the cream form with pump dispenser. I have never found a better make up remover. Even with this product, I wet my eyes, rub on the make up remover, and have to roll my fingers around on my lashes to make sure it all comes off :-/. Otherwise, I love this mascara.
