I saw that.. but they also recommended Maybelline Great Lash which is the absolute WORST mascara I have ever tried! 10 seconds after applying it my eyes were all red and itchy. I took it off immediately and threw out the tube.

On my list I have Nars blush in 0rgasm, Nars lipgloss in Chihuahua, Eucerin redness relief, Eucerin foot cream, and I wrote down YSL's Touche Eclat concealer, but not sure if I would get it Chat Icon

ETA: Carmendie from "what not to wear" says she uses "Blot" by MAC exclusively for under eye concealer. anyone try this?

Haven't seen the list, but I'd take Maybelline Great Lash over DiorShow. Chat Icon

I have and do use both. As for DiorShow, the wand is too big for my liking, so I prefer Dior MaximEyes. Great Lash is kind of like "hair spray" for eyelashes. Chat Icon It's great if you curl your lashes, that's why I use it over another mascara (Dior MaximEyes is my base.)

I have Dior Show and I hate that crap. I can't believe it is rated so highly.

I used to use Great Lash but then I tried Full & Soft which I really like. I found Dior Show to be really good though! I guess everyone has a different experience. My lashes are never sticky or clumped. But for $20 a tube, it should be good!

I actually bought Nars lip gloss in Organsm based on a previous post on this site and I like the color a lot so I may try the blush too.

Make up shopping is so much fun, weather is $20 mascara or $3 lipgloss, I just love to buy make up! It's so girly!

Ooh--that's good to know! I don't think I've ever used it, which I find hard to beleive , b/c I think I've tried every other drug store mascara.
