Although I've tried many, I keep going back to the cheap Loreal Voluminous. I love Diroshow Blackout, but I don't think its any better than Voluminous on me. I have to say though that one time I must have bought an old tube of the Loreal and it clumped a lot, it was just that one time though. Its a thickening mascara instead of a lengthening one- I don't need any more length, just volume on my lashes.

Amen!
My top 3:
Diorshow Blackout
Diorshow Showtime
Loreal ANYTHING!
 
sweet imma try Loreal Luminous since I've seen a few thumbs from you ladies!
for me, i use CHERRY BLOOMS BRUSH ON FIBRE EXTENSION LASHES. Very effective. I cant do fake eyelash extensions and adding 2-4 lots of mascara doesn't help cuz it clogs up and looks messy. But my current mascara works like a charm!
 
I use Clinique High Impact Mascara in Black/Brown. Most mascaras irritate my eyes and Clinique doesn't, even when I wear contacts. I've been using it for years and I absolutely love it.
 
I decided to try Diorshow based on the hype. I used it and I was having doubts in the back of my mind, so I did a little experiment.

Last night, I tried my old Maybelline Full N Soft on one eye and Diorshow on the other. Then asked my boyfriend, who is clueless about makeup, which eye looked better. I did not disclose which was which. He chose Maybelline.

Disappointing. This is going back to Sephora this weekend, but I am going to try Iconic.

Also, quick question. I use waterproof mascara on my lower lashes. I know with drugstore brands, their waterproof counterparts have slightly less volumizing/lengthening properties than the regular. Is this also the case for Diorshow? I bought both waterproof and regular, and if the volumizing/lengthening properties for waterproof and regular are the same, I'm going to just get waterproof and spend the extra $25 on something else!

I really have chilled out on high end mascaras lately because I get my fix at the drugstore. Anybody have drugstore faves they want to share? I've been using L'Oreal Power Volume 24 lately. Also Voluminous Million Lashes.
