Dior Diorshow Iconic Mascara

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 bestselling 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.

Clumps my lashes unless I put very little product on, and even then they don't get as volumized as I hoped.

The best mascara hands down! I'm an aerobics instructor, so I sweat a lot! Diorshow Iconic mascara lasts even through my most challenging workouts! It separates, lengthens, and volumizes my lashes!

Hands down my favorite mascara I've ever used. I have decently long, but very straight lashes. Diorshow Iconic helps give me the volume and curl I need. This is my third tube :)

Like the mascara, not the brush
-05.06.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, perfect color
I purchased both this & the Diorshow, both in chestnut. I didnt like this silicone bristle brush. Much prefer the other regular type brush. It seems to me that the mascara itself is the same. I like the mascara, creamy, goes on nice with no clumps or flakes. I do love the chestnut color !! Perfect brownish black color for me as a fair redhead. Great mascara go for the Diorshow Mascara with out this "iconic" brush!!

i love Iconic. Sometimes I'll be bored and try another brand or another Diorshow, but I always come right back to Iconic. It goes on perfectly, never clumps and lasts all day without migrating to my undereye area.

Perfect navy blue mascara
-05.06.13
I don't have the right kind of eyelids to wear eye shadow - so the only way I can bring color to my eyes is eyeliner and mascara. This mascara is not so dark that you think it is black and not so blue that it looks silly. It is truly navy blue and waterproof to boot!

just ok
-05.01.13
i bought this mascara bc it was the highest rated curling mascara on Sephora's website. I have been using it for a few weeks and I do not think it to be anything special. I still use an eyelash curler. Not at all the product I was hoping for. I won't be buying it again. oh well.

Disappointed
-04.27.13
Quick Take: defining
I got this deluxe sample in a gift set along with a full size extase mascara. I have to say I'm disappointed. I have to brush it for a few times in order to get the mascara on my eyelashes. The effect is so natural that it is hard to tell that I am wearing mascara. The only thing I can tell after applying is that my lashes look darker. It doesn't curl your lashes.

Feels Natural
-04.26.13
Quick Take: defining, lengthening
It took me a little while to get used to the brush, but I really like it. It is a non-waterproof formula (my first ever) and there's not much difference in wear. The biggest difference is when taking it off, it comes off easily and my eyelashes stay on my lids! With all the other waterproof formulas, I used to use, I would consistently shed eyelashes in the removal process.

Meh.
-04.12.13
Not thrilled. I've heard nothing but amazing things about Dior, so I finally splurged and bought this. It feels great on, and definitely gives length. But I want length AND volume. I generally have to do a coat of Covergirl lash blast before I put this on. That at least separates my lashes, before applying this. If I don't, my lashes stick together (not a good look!!!). I wish I could say this is amazing. Instead, it's just "above average" (I am a tough critic, though! I want perfection when I'm spending $28 a tube!)

WRONG ONE!
-03.30.13
One star for the terrible service at the store. I got a wrong mascara, wrong foundation, and a broken chubby stick... The store assistant was in such a great rush like we were behind the stage at a fashion show. I have exchanged the mascara to the curved brush one and it's awesome. This was the one initially suggested to me. The assistant was showing me her eyelashes that were so caky looking that I would have never bought it if I didn't have experience with Dior and I knew it is not horrible as shown. I knew it will be good if not applied a hundred times over as suggested by the "specialist". Didn't try this one, just exchanged it.

great brush
-03.30.13
I love the brush on this mascara. It is full enough to line all lashes, little to no clumping, but is rigid enough to "comb out" any clumps that occur. I can make my lashes look full, thick long and lush. Only problem with this mascara is its difficult to remove- almost like waterproof mascara. I always seem to still have some on my lashes and when I shower, I have black circles under my eyes from the leftover.

Not worth the hype
-03.23.13
I had high hopes for this mascara and it was nothing but a disappointment. It does not do a good job of separating eye lashes AT ALL. I have even gone without any mascara the last three days at work (which I never do) because I would rather have "naked" eyelashes than put this stuff on. Will be returning.

Quick Take: volumizing
Honestly, I think Dior makes the best mascaras around - but they dry up much faster than other brands. I know you are supposed to change your mascara frequently, but usually I am able to keep using the same one for years before it dries up, but not with Dior
Also - I recommend regular DiorShow mascara over the iconic - but it does have amazing staying power - and no smudging. I bought it for my wedding and it was perfect - lasted all night!
