REVIEW: Dior Diorshow Iconic Mascara

Some of my youtube subscribers requested this review of my HG mascara...
DIOR DIORSHOW ICONIC MASCARA $27
AS DESCRIBED ON THE SEPHORA WEBSITE:

What it is: A mascara with an innovative oblique brush that curls and defines lashes. What it does: Diorshow Iconic Mascara is the latest in Dior's dazzling range of best-selling mascaras. Created backstage for fashion shows and celebrity red carpet events, the Iconic mascara features an oblique cut brush that gives an extra lash-curling effect. With its long, skinny teeth, the plastic comb brush allows you to precisely coat each lash one-by-one-creating a long, separated fan of lashes that usually takes the skill of a makeup artist. The extra-hold formula provides a 24-hour-curl with 100% smudge-proof results. What else you need to know: Inspired by the tailoring technique of cutting fabric on the bias to create maximum curve, the Iconic brush features soft silicone bristles that spiral around the stem to lift, curl, and separate every lash.

PROS:
  • Lengthens lashes
  • Curls lashes
  • Separates lashes
  • Smudge-proof formula
CONS:
  • Not waterproof (which i don't mind coz i prefer non-waterproof mascaras for easy removal)
  • Expensive at $27
VERDICT: This is my Holy Grail mascara as of the moment. Eventhough I try different brands, i still end up goin back to this. It may work for me but not for everybody so use at your own risk.
