About the Author: Carleen Pruess Coulter

I have already reviewed Dior’s Diorshow Iconic Mascara (read review), but have not formally written about the original.

Dior DiorShow Mascara is a cult classic favorite. Time and again you will see it listed as among the best mascaras out there, and I agree. This one does it all. It lengthens, it adds volume, it holds a curl well (note, use an eyelash curler first for best results), and it lasts all day without flaking or smudging. The brush is large and the formulation is medium—enough to work well, but not so thick as to get clumpy.

I love the look I get from Diorshow. I tend to think it is slightly less of a dramatic look than what you can get from Iconic, but frankly they are both so similar that I use them interchangeably.
