摘要：

The current mascara on the market is typically comprised of an emulsion of water and waxes to provide excellent volume, length, and other attributes to enhance the look of the human eye. Other attribute that is sought in mascara is long lasting or long wear. In this chapter, we will review the trend of using long﹚ear mascara that lasts from 1 day to 2 days, and semi﹑ermanent mascara that lasts from 3 days up to 30 days. Such products typically contain silicone film‐formers, hydrocarbon resins or oxidative dyes from hair color to achieve long lasting effect without re゛pplication. However, the removability of such products from eyelashes is a challenge for consumers. This chapter will review and discuss the factors influencing the adhesion of mascara to eyelashes such as mascara composition, its rheology and mechanical properties for long lasting performance. Finally, the removability of the long﹚ear mascara from the eyelashes is also discussed.
