I adore this mascara! It gives you long, fluttery lashes and the colour pigment is long-lasting. The tube design is sleek and glamorous, with the Dior logo printed in silver on the side. The wand has two sides- one curved and one flat. This allows you to build the length and volume. I haven't tried the original Diorshow, so I can't compare them, but I'm definitely impressed with this one! Because it's fast-drying, you don't have to worry about little smudges above your eyelids. Overall it's pretty much perfect!

This mascara works great on my lashes (blonde and short), it gives volume and a curl and it looks glamourous without being too obvious.
And without annoying crumbs en brittle looking lashes.
Since i use this mascara, all others mascara are just mwehh..
One drawback is that after 2 months the formula thickens and the mascara is difficult to use because too much products comes out of the package on the wand.

This is horrible! The forumula is very sticky and tacky. A lot of product gets stuck on to the wand. The mascara is super clumpy and doesn't hold a curl. Try Diorshow instead!

Advertising addiction got me. I thought id buy a more expensive mascara to "pamper" myself. This is a good mascara. I have no complaints. When used with a primer it lengthens very very well and separates nicely. But really NOT worth the price which is why I give it 2 lippies. I returned it to Macy's after 3 days, I really couldnt justify the $30. In a blind test with another mascara it would give me similar results. If you have the money, go for it, if not, lots of other mascaras will do the same.

Great everyday mascara- I use brown. It holds a curl nicely. Doesn't clump. The brush seems like it gets clogged with product, but I've found that even with that, I never end up with a bunch of it on my lashes. The biggest downside is the price. It is SO expensive. I want to try out other daytime worthy mascaras before I buy this again.

Diorshow Iconic is the best Mascara I have ever used.
But I got greedy for length and wanted to try the Unlimited.
I was bitterly disappointed. It made my eyelashes look like Spiders legs and I don't think it lengthened any more than the Iconic.
It was a clumpy mess.
I think I am a rubber bristle convert.
I bought the Rimmel Sexy Curves Mascara which leaves this one for dead..

I've been using this mascara for a couple of weeks and it's becoming one of my favorites. I have short and thin lashes. This mascara lengthens and keeps a curl. It adds enough volume for me, especially as an everyday mascara. It never clumps nor smudges. The brush is small, so it's easy to work with when you have short lashes. One side of the brush is curved, the other side is straight. As others have said, if you're looking for volume and dramatic look, this is not it. I will definitely re-purchase.

luv luv luv luv this mascara!! one of the best i've tried. It lengthens and gives a lil volume but the only problem was that it dries out fairly quickly like 2 months. But still its wonderful considering it doesn't clump or flake either.

This is my favorite mascara, hands down. I have it in brown and it is just amazing. Not much volume, but tons of length and curl. The brush is great for grabbing every lash and the formula does not dry out like the original DiorShow. It's never clumpy and I never, ever have any flaking. If I need dramatic, thick, black lashes, I use Blackout, but for everyday glam, this fits the bill.

I love this mascara. I have straight and short lashes and this one really blackens every single lash. It doesn't clump or smudge. It works really well for me as an everyday go to mascara but I don't think it's for extreme volume/dramatic looks.

The only gripe I have about this product is the price, kinda expensive vs. the drugstore but again, it works better for me than the other cheaper brands.

I had always wanted to try this. I had a gift certificate to Sephora so I got it. I am disappointed. It truly is no better than any other run of the mill mascara in my opinion. Nothing bad about it but yet nothing super. I would like to try EA ceramide mascara next.

It went straight back, I thought I looked amazing in Sephora (always stay near those windows!), - long, thick, dark lashes for night. Got home and wondered how I could even see past all the clumps. I kept re-applying, had friends apply, barely put any on, and still it kept clumping.

I have long, thick, curly tangled lashes with two stubbornly straight ones on each eye and use Clinique's naturally glossy for day. Very sweet enhancement, stays on in wind, rain and with my sensitive teary eyes, my lashes still feel soft and doesn't flake or clump on me.

Anyway...when will I finally find the evening version of this?! I've been looking for years and am tired of returning mascara to Sephora!

And the wand isn't the savviest they've put out..........
Would not buy again

Dior's DiorShow mascaras, IMO do live up to the hype. Unlimited is my absolute favourite. I stuck with the regular DiorShow for a while, switched over to Blackout, before [accidentally!] ending up with Unlimited.

I used the original 5X/week [school] for 2 years before my eyelashes seemed to get bored, and the effect wasn't as good. Also, I found the brush for both the Original and Blackout too big and bulky. Unlimited has a nice, thin brush that is alot more controllable after an all-nighter, getting ready for school before coffee when I'm not all that alert. I'm not bopping myself in the eye. When applying mascara to the bottom lashline, I don't brush up against the side of my nose with the brush.

I have long lashes, that are quite straight, and I suffer from the dreaded blonde lashes. Unlimited - moreso than Blackout & the original, IMO - curls well. I do get it in black, and it doesn't flake [which was a problem I've had with Lancome and why I switched over to Dior.] I don't notice the fragrance people mentioned earlier - either to say "Smells rank!" or "Yummy." It's not as dramatic as the original or Blackout, which makes it perfect for everyday.

I don't find it dries out any quicker than any other mascara I have. It is pricey, though, when you're replacing it every 3-5 months. So, if you're looking for a nice mascara and are willing to spend a little extra, or this is one of your only beauty extravagances, it's definately worth it.

This mascara is no better than any drugstore brand. It really did nothing for me. It looks alright, but I expected more than just "alright"-looking lashes from a high-end mascara. After a few hours of wear, this stuff gets into your eye creases and smudges. Not worth the cost. I will not repurchase. BIG disappointment!

blacker and glossier than the original diorshow, large brush makes it harder to reach the lashes at the outer edge (compared to other mascaras with 'normal' sized brushes). its waterproof even though it doesnt say it is!!! its quite hard to get off, takes off 2-3 lashes with it every time (with clarins or EL or lancome remover). does the job with volumizing n lengthening with 2 coats...

This mascara is just alright. Nothing special. Does pretty much what any drugstore mascara can do in my opinion. Its not like its a bad mascara, jsut not worth the money, thats all. But is you have money to spend and you want to try it, why not?

I have purchased this twice but no more. Diorshow Unlimited is an average mascara at best.
Pros: It does a good job of lengthening and thickening and I also really, really like the brush.
Cons: The biggest drawback to this mascara is that it melts and I end up with 'raccoon eyes' at the end of the day; and if you shed a tear or put in eye drops then forget it your mascara will be all over your cheeks. Also this mascara tends to get clumpy in the tube after only a couple of months. I prefer Estee Lauder volumizing mascara (I forget the exact name but it is awesome) or Sephora's Atomic, both are cheaper and stay put much better than Diorshow.
