I love Dior Show too! It's hard to find the Waterproof version in stock at Sephora and if I run out, I can't just run to the drugstore (malls that have a Sephora are pretty far from my house), so that's pretty much the only downside. Before I discovered that one, I used Loreal Volumnious (Waterproof) for years and loved it, but Dior is the best I've ever tried.
A couple of weeks ago, I tried Loreal Shocking Volume Waterproof mascara (I was curious about it, and it is available at drugstores). It has two sides/separate brushes to it; one is a primer (a silvery base coat) and one is a very, very short comb with the actual mascara. I got comments the first day I wore it but it is SO heavy and hard to remove at the end of the day. Another downside is that I HATE the little short comb to apply the mascara. It's so easy to poke yourself, and it's hard to apply to the corners. You can also see traces of silver where you "miss" and it takes forever to apply. So...yeah, I'm going to be ordering some new Dior online from Sephora very soon.

After this thread, I'm off to buy some myself!
Max Factor 2000 Calorie mascara is my favorite. I really don't like Great Lash mascara at all. L'Oreal makes good mascaras, too, as does Lancome. But Max Factor is less expensive and just as good. I like the full brush on it. My lashes are already pretty long, so I mostly need volume.
I like YSL except for the smell, I haven't tried Diorshow and thanks to this thread, ordered some. Has anyone tried the Dior Show Ultimate Mascara? I played with some at Sephora today and they didn't have any.
Diorshow is awesome . And , believe it or not L'oreal Lash Architect is really good too . Lancome and L'oreal are the same company , same products , different packaging . Lancome also has great mascara ( obviously ) . I found that Diorshow dried out really quickly and had to be tossed after about two months .
Right now I am using and loving Kiss Me by Blinc. It forms little tubes around the lashes and stays on all day then washes off with water. The little tubes just come off in a tissue. No smudging and great for contac lens wearers.
