Thanks for the replies. The main reason I use clear mascara is to prevent the raccoon look. However many are a bit sticky because they are meant to primarily be brow-gel instead of actual mascara although the tube says lash mascara. As it's been a few years since I used mascara, I can't remember which ones I loved/hated
Blinc does work for me, but I'm worried about all that rubbing to get them off at the end of the day so I save it for occasions.
I looked at makeup alley reviews and sadly most of them refer to brows rather than lashes.
