What it is: A revolutionary mascara with a curved brush that offers spectacular volume and curling power. What it does: Create glamorously curled lashes day after day. Inspired by professional curling irons, the curved brush styles every lash from bottom to top. High-precision ingredients provide intense definition and hold without clumping or smudging. Creating instant oversized volume and curl, this evolutionary formula nourishes your lashes with a unique lipid complex that strengthens and smooths for long-lasting vitality. What else you need to know: Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara embodies a host of key technologies. Its K-Polymer Formula combines lifting, coating, and fixing polymers for instantly dramatic curves and enduring wear. Its waxes and oils offer a volumizing complex that boosts adherence, coverage, and smoothing for a dramatic lift. A lipid complex of abyssinv oil and pseudo-ceramid strengthens lashes to prevent breakage, while plant nectar boosts the development of keratin, reinforcing them. Research results: An instrumental study that used before-and-after photos to measure lashes upon makeup application found the following increases: - +53% in volume - +111% in curl Clinical studies on 31 subjects observing naked lashes after four weeks of daily application yielded the following increases: - +31% in volume - +33% in curl

Great mascara
-05.18.13
I really like this mascara. I have thin eyelashes and usually have to curl eyelashes for about 10 seconds each side and put 3 or 4 coats of mascara on..ending up with tarantula lashes. I bought this mascara and tried it this morning without curling my lashes..I only had to put on one coat and my lashes looked amazing. It goes on very clean and neat. Did smear or get on my eyelids. I do believe I have found my new favorite mascara!

Smudges
-05.18.13
Quick Take: volumizing
My usual mascara was discontinued. I wanted a curved brush. The brush was extra wide and not what I'm used to. The biggest problem I had was that by lunchtime most of the mascara was smudged under my eyes. It was also way too pricey. I took it back and got blinc. Wish they would bring back my defincils pro by Lancôme

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
I would recommend this mascara to anyone. It look great on, doesn't clump. Washes off easily with just soap--don't have to use eye makeup remover. It REALLY curls your lashes. I like the arched wand--great for applying. Really defines your individual lashes.

Use a curler
-05.17.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening
Like any other diorshow mascara this does what it says it does. I do not think its as dramatic as the hype but if you use a curler with it (I know your not really supposed to /need to) this mascara surpasses the other diorshows out there.

Amaizing Results
-05.16.13
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, curls lashes nicely
I am a mascara addict. I cannot and will not go out without mascara, and I can honestly say that I have tried my share of mascara brands. Dior is one of my "go to" brands for mascara and this new formula is not an exception. I recently ran out of mascara and I decided to try this new overcurl formula and the results are amazing. My eyelashes are not naturally curly and this mascara actually curls my otherwise straight lashes - without making them look artificial. I also like that it separates, curls, and lengthens at the same time. Although, I don't notice the lengthening effect as much.
A big minus for this mascara is the brush. I am a fan of the Givenchy's phenomen'eyes mascara, particularly because of the round brush. Givenchys' round brush grabs every single lash whereas the Diorshow Iconic Overcurl brush does not. I hope Dior improves the brush design soon because other than that, it is a great mascara.

no curl
-05.15.13
I normally wear the Dior iconic mascara, and was so excited to see the same item in an "over curling" formula. After 3 days of wearing, and still using a lash curler, my lashs were straighter than with my old mascara. I will e returning this and sticking with the original!

A wonderful mascara especially for those with virtually fine,nondescript eye lashes. I have been using Dior mascaras for years and love this new one! Well worth a try!

Quick Take: too natural
After so long Dior comes with this? This mascara doesn't do anything. I don't like the advertising: volume, drama and curling. I didn't saw any of that.

For the price you pay, you would think it's gonna be so worth it but it clumps easy and dries out quick.

I've been a Dior mascara devotee for a long time, and I've used Iconic, Diorshow, and Blackout. This formula is my new favorite! It is lengthening and volumizing and makes eyes pop. A must have!

Great curler!
-05.14.13
Quick Take: lengthening
It definitely gives you a big curl. I purchased it along with the white lash plumper and that adds volume, although it can get clumpy. Overall I'm very satisfied, but I would like a little more volume by itself.

It's ok...
-05.14.13
Quick Take: defining
As a regular Diorshow mascara fanatic, I bought this since I have very long but stick straight lashes. Normally I curl, mascara, sometimes re-curl and touch up the ends. This overcurl mascara doesn't allow for that since once you put it on and it dries (which is quite quick), it will clump with a second coat. It doesn't really curl my lashes but it does hold the curl longer. (I still start by curling my lashes with a shu uemura curler.) If the curl starts to straighten during my morning routine, I have to use sephora's heated eyelash curler to re-curl my lashes. But I don't have to retouch at all during the day. This product though, still doesn't give the lush volume of the regular Diorshow mascara so I plan on switching back.

Good, but still not perfect
-05.14.13
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening
I am one of the lucky ones with long, semi thick lashes and I have been searching for the perfect mascara. I have found this to be my favorite, although it's not perfect. I curl my lashes, apply this (once I've gotten all the excess off the brush) and then wait about 10 minutes and recurl, my lashes look amazing. They do stay curled all day with the process too. They don't clump and the mascara stays put, not smudges or flakes.

Nothing special
-05.11.13
Quick Take: mediocre at best
Not impressed with this mascara. I've used a lot of mascara in my time and this just didn't impress me at all. I figured for Dior it would be great but I've bought better mascara at the drugstore. It didn't curl my lashes nor did it seem to add length or volume. And to make matters worse it ran and I looked like I was punched in both eyes. Not worth the money.

Nope.

I normally like Dior mascaras but this was not it. It did nothing for my lashes. Not impact whatsoever. I'll stick with my Iconic.
