Revlon's 3D Extreme mascara

Revlon's 3D Extreme mascara
What does it promise to do?: 

Creates dramatic lashes with extreme fullness, curl and length. The Exclusive Bold Impact Brush is tapered to lift, amplify and separate even the tiniest lashes. The patented lightweight gel formula with intense color pigments delivers a bold lash look – no primer needed! No caking or flaking.

Do we like?: 

This would be one of the best mascaras ever if - and it's a big if - it had a better wand. The mascara does indeed create one of the best, fullest looks. Lashes look longer, with more curl and super luscious. But the brush is a nightmare. It's tricky to use, with a flat side to first apply product, then comb side to brush thourgh. It's prone to clumping at the lash root and ruining the look, which is a shame because this is definitely a brilliant mascara, just use a different wand.

What does it promise to do?: 

The serum enriched base coat leaves lashes feeling fortified and nourished. The intense black top coat sweeps on for lashes that look up to 80% longer.

Do we like?: 

Perfect for giving lashes an added oomph and adding volume. The primer end coats lashes and conditions then apply other end which colours, separates and curls lashes. Overall look is pretty close to false lashes.

Diorshow mascara

Diorshow mascara
What does it promise to do?: 

Inspired by the runway and behind-the-scenes tricks, Diorshow Mascara gives lashes a triple-shot of glamour, leaving them luxuriously thick, lengthened and curved to the max. Its easy-to-use XXL brush is generously curved for maximum coverage,

Do we like?: 

First time ever we're going to say this mascara smells lovely - almost floral. There's no clumping though the wand is weighty and thick so does take some getting used to when applying. If you're looking for full-on glamour, this is the mascara for you. Lashes are lengthened but its impact is most noticeable on thickness. Seriously dramatic lash look, the natural look this ain't.
