Alright, ladies (and possibly gents), I’m getting married in two weeks. Whoohooo!!! However, I cry like a baby at other people’s weddings, so I’m fairly certain I’ll be shedding some tears at my own. I don’t often wear mascara, but I’m planning to for the wedding. Can anyone recommend a good, water-proof mascara? Something that’s not too Tammy Faye looking? ---

I used to use Maybelline Great Lash. If I recall correctly, it is waterproof. [http://www.maybelline.com/perl/view\_details.pl?category=eyes&sub\_category=mascaras&item\_code=175M](http://www.maybelline.com/perl/view_details.pl?category=eyes&sub_category=mascaras&item_code=175M) ---
