My first time to try a Dior mascara! I remember lookin forward to using it. By now, I have used it for about a month and I must say I am not quite impressed. I think this brand can do absolutely much much better.
The product description goes: "Inspired by models' behind-the-scenes runway tricks, the result is ultra-glamorous lashes that are lengthened, thickened, and curved to the nth degree." It retails for $25 and is something that you would want to try because, my gosh, it is a Dior brand.
Nah. It is a clumpy formulation. And the brush does not do justice for the upper lashes: The more you comb, the clumpier and unrealistic the lashes get. I am always having some smear here and there trying to achieve a natural look for it but really it is quite a messy thing to use. You cannot be happy with one application either so if you would think of minimizing the application, it is also not a happy result. I resorted to using it on my lower lashes. The brush is too small but it can pick up my lower lashes nicely. It indeed lengthens, that much I agree, but it does not do anything fantastic to hold the curve of your lashes or to thicken, unless by "thicken" Dior meant "clump".
I had such high hopes... But there is this trick that my sister and I do with mascara: we put on a different brand on next application. Kind of like combining the effects of 2 different mascaras. The effect is stellar. It is still clumpy so I just have to dab it a little with cotton buds or a lash comb. I think I can manage with it, but this is one mascara that I will not think of repurchasing again. It is simply a miss.
