When Will the Fenty Beauty Hella Thicc Waterproof Mascara Launch?

Fenty Beauty has not announced an official release date. On 2 November 2026, the spoiler blog Durbin Rock reported the launch. On 3 November 2026, Amazon US listed the mascara for pre-order with the note "This item will be released on January 31, 2027." This is the retailer's date, and it may change once Fenty Beauty confirms the launch.

Price

Amazon US lists the Hella Thicc Waterproof Mascara at $24.00, which works out to $72.73 per fluid ounce. That unit price puts the tube at about 0.33 fl oz.

For comparison, the original Hella Thicc Volumizing Mascara has these regular prices on fentybeauty.com:

  • $22.00 for 10 mL
  • $13.00 for the 6.5 mL mini

Both sizes are currently discounted to $16.50 and $9.75. Prices for the UK, Europe and other markets have not been announced.

Shades

Only one shade is listed so far: Cuz I'm Black. Fenty Beauty has not announced any other shades for the waterproof version. The original mascara comes in three shades: Cuz I'm Black, Let'z Be Blunt and Elec'Trip Blue.

What Makes the Hella Thicc Waterproof Mascara Different?

  • Waterproof format: It is a waterproof version of the existing Hella Thicc Volumizing Mascara.
  • Blue-band packaging: The official packshot shows "FENTY BEAUTY" printed vertically on a periwinkle-blue brush-stroke band. Durbin Rock describes this band as the way to tell the two tubes apart.
  • Single shade at launch: Cuz I'm Black is the only listed shade, compared with three shades for the original.

Formula and Packaging

  • Waterproof formula: Fenty Beauty has not published the ingredients, wear time or brush details for the waterproof version.
  • Original formula: For the Volumizing Mascara, the brand describes an "ultra-creamy, ultra-black formula" with "a tapered brush that coats and loads every lash for an effect that looks outrageous yet feels weightless."
  • Original wear claims: According to Fenty Beauty, the original is sweat-, humidity- and transfer-resistant, as well as clean, vegan and gluten-free.
