pretty average mascara even when paired with my clinique base coat mascara also dries out my lashes =/ the worst part is that the bottle dries up quickly so i probably wil not repurchase anytime soon overall: average not great overrated mascara

I bought this expecting it to do something special but it worked just as well as the kind you buy at the drugstore.

This is my favorite mascara because it looks great, easy to apply, and gets all my lashes. I love the big wand mascaras w/ small wands take forever to apply and never get all the lashes. Also this mascara curls them so my eyes stand out more.

This is an above average mascara compared to everything else on the market. I am a mascara junkie and have tried nearly everything out there. It definitely elongates the lashes but does not really thicken per say. It does have a tendency to crumble a bit but most mascaras do. My favorite mascara is Chanel Instant Lash, and this one just doesn't compare. I won't purchases again.

This is the BEST mascara I have ever used! I have long lashes but not very full, this mascara does the trick. Full and voluminous. It smells really good too!

I received this as a gift from a friend who was visiting me,it came from an airport duty free set with an eyeliner and eye makeup remover.I have never tried it before but was very excited to try it as i had seen it mentioned more than once in magazines for best mascara..I was extremely disappointed with this product,does nothing special,the only thing i can put in its favour is its not clumpy but other than that a drugstore brand would achieve similiar if not better results.it didnt lengthen my lashes any what and i didnt find the results dramatic.I will stick to my ysl faux cil as i have not found a mascara better than that in the dramatic department.overall disappointed and would never repurchase at the price it retails for.

This is my hg mascara(for now). For refrence, I have light brown eyelashes, medium long, white at the tips, and fairly sparse. They do have a nice natural curl to them, and respond well to a curler. I think that those who need a more 'curling' mascara might not get as good of a result.

I am amazed at how long I can make my lashes with this mascara! And it's black!

I am a complete beauty product junky, and i've tried quite a few mascara's in my time. Most of them have been 'drugstore' brands, and dior definatly outshines them all. The only drugstore mascara that came close was a loreal mascara....i forget the name....2 phases.....in a weird wavy container....


anyway, it took forever to dry and left my eyelashed clumpier than dior show leaves them

This mascara is not for those who want 'natural' mascara. If you used one coat(one light coat), you might get the effect you're after ....but you get the most value for this mascara if you like to PILE it on. But still look natural.(sort of) continued >>

I bought this a while ago, and while it's a very good mascara, I don't use it all that often. The brush is just too big, and I find I have to be very careful or I get it all over the place. Plus, I don't think the price is justified. There are drugstore mascaras that are every bit as good. I did like the color though, Chestnut. Good dark browns are hard to find, and this one is really pretty, especially with my favorite liner, MAC Bountiful Brown Powerpoint. It did make my lashes nice and thick, and didn't smudge on me, but I can get that same effect with L'Oreal's Voluminous or Maybelline's Volum' Express. I'll use it up, but won't buy another.

For all the hype I've heard about Diorshow, I was somewhat disappointed with it. It is a good BASIC mascara -- it lengthens well, holds a curl decently, and adds some colour and volume. However, for the price (a whopping £18.50 in England), I personally expect something a bit more spectacular than that. I would prefer the overall effect to be a bit more soft and 'fluttery'; this mascara is by no means 'spidery', but does not give you lush, feathery lashes either.
My lashes are long, but not very thick. If you're starting with thicker lashes, I imagine this would be a HG buy.
The wand is large and catches even small lashes, making the mascara easy to apply. It also dries far more quickly than most of its cheaper counterparts, with a slightly glossy finish. The fragrance is pleasant, but quite strong and could irritate sensitive eyes.

For a day-to-day mascara, it can't really be faulted although it does have a tendency to budge easily in humid conditions. For more dramatic effects, Diorshow is not the ideal product.

I got this first years ago and did not like it at first because it was a bit awkward to use the large brush but after I got the hang of it, I found that it seperated my lashes nicely. I did not find any buildup but would run very quickly if you shed a tear. Years later, I purchased it again after using Lancome for years. I really love this mascara.
