1. Dior Addict It-Lash – The brush is small and spiky so I knew it would be good at grabbing each and every lash – which was correct. It separated my lashes quite well and gave them a delicate fanned-out look. I did try applying a few coats to see if I could build it up in volume, but sadly I couldn’t get it to the kind of drama I prefer. It did smudge slightly but most mascaras do on me – so I didn’t find it a deal breaker. This mascara is receiving RAVE reviews and I hate to go against the grain, but I don’t love it. Like it? Yes. Love it? No. Repurchase? Probably not.
2. Diorshow – From the moment I used this years ago, until the present day it is an amazing mascara. It gives length, volume, drama, intensity – it’s amazing. It can get clumpy towards the end of the tube, but would you think I’m weird if I said I don’t mind clumpy lashes sometimes? Not gross clumpy lashes, but I don’t need every single lash to be separated. I like a thick lash and occasionally that can mean clumpy. Feel free to judge, I’m fine with it.
3. Diorshow Iconic Overcurl – I had very high hopes for this one because it was a direct descendant of Diorshow (or at least the name said it was). Again, like the It-Lash, it feel short for me. What did not fall short was the length of my lashes – they were extra long after a few swipes. However, because I do wear a substantial amount of eye makeup every day, a thick and voluminous mascara always complements it better than a more delicate one. I have kept this one for those days that I am not wearing any makeup or very light makeup. But it will not be a repurchase for me.
Here is a look at all the mascaras swatched on my lashes. The winner undoubtedly in my opinion is still the Diorshow, but the other two were nice as a base coat for me.
Have you tried the new Dior It-Lash? What are your thoughts?
