My first Dior mascara! LOL.

Dior is known for their good quality makeups but this mascara; Diorsnow Extase #090 Black is disappointing. I’m glad that I only purchase trial size and not the full size otherwise I’d bang my head on the wall. Among my makeup stash, mascara usually finishes the fastest so I think I could suck it up and force myself to use this until it’s finish?

I wouldn’t say I hated this mascara totally. It’s more like a love and hate relationship. IMHO it totally depends on how you like your lashes to be with mascara. For me I’m into volume, lengthening, strong hold, waterproof, sweat and oil-proof mascara. I can’t have volume and droopy eyelashes right?

One thing for sure Dior makeup is always made in a luxury way. Just look at this mascara. It’s good quality gold tube! Looks nice on the eyes, feels good holding it. What’s not to like? And. Despite the one I have is trial size, Dior still stamped their famous “CD” inital on top of the cap/tube.

Initial “CD” stamped on the top of the tube/cap.

The brush size however is nothing close to trial size brush. It’s a big fat brush just like normal size. I usually prefer trial size mascara over full size because of the small brush and the length of the applicator. The shorter the easier to apply. Brush is wavy and not straight like others. Cool. I have no problem with the big fat brush with this. There you go. My love for the mascara.

So, why would I say I hated this mascara. This mascara does nothing for lengthening, voluming and holding the lashes. Not even waterproof, sweat and oil-proof. Nil. Zero. Zilch. On the first day I wore this (which is my birthday actually), I prayed hard that this will not smudge. And it did. When I laugh hard and teared a bit, the mascara just melted. While I was driving in hot sun, the mascara melted again. I hate to keep checking the mirror if I have panda eyes!

Pictures below is taken with my old Canon Ixus as I was about to rush to work.

Droopy lashes. No lengthening and the mascara doesn’t hold my lashes curl.

No volume here. If you like clean, straight lashes then this is your mascara.

Looking up. Trying to convince myself that it does hold curl LOL. Fail.

Oh. This reminds me of Stage mascara 😛

In conclusion. If you are like me, this mascara is not for you. If you like clean straight lashes that mascara doesn’t clumped up for volume, then this mascara is for you.
