Primer’s are all the rage right now: eyeshadow primer, foundation primer, and now eyelash primer. Eyelash primer is meant to be used before applying your regular mascara, to comb, curl, and coat each lash for a smooth, even mascara base. The brand new DiorShow Maximizer also acts as a nourishing serum treatment that promotes long-term lash growth, strength, and vitality. Want to know more about this brand new product?
Dior DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum
Dior DiorShow Mazimizer Lash Plumping Serum is the newest addition to the family of legendary Diorshow mascaras. The formula instantly primes, plumps, and lengthens lashes with an ultra-light and quick-drying formula. The first “active serum” mascara primer, it also contains a unique cell-conditioning complex made up of hydrolyzed soy proteins that promote long-term lash growth, strength, and vitality.
As someone who owns more mascara’s than any other type of beauty product, I have tried a few different mascara primers over the past year. I love the DiorShow line of mascara, and I have not been disappointed with any of their products, so I decided to give this one a shot when I saw it was brand new at Sephora. The first step is to curl your eyelashes, and apply the lash plumping serum to your eyelashes like a regular mascara. Your eyelashes will be coated in the serum, and may even have a white tone to them from the DiorShow formula.
The first thing that I noticed, is that you will instantly feel like your eyelashes are being coated in a creamy, rich, luxurious moisturizer. My lashes need all the love they can get with all the eye makeup looks I am constantly doing and then taking off. I was very pleased with how hydrating the serum felt on my eyelashes. The second thing I noticed was that this product is different from most of my other mascara primers. This formula is a “serum” whereas many of my other lash plumping primers are an actual cream base, and have microfibers in them to create length. DiorShow Maximizer is a lightweight serum that you can barely see or feel on your lashes when you apply it. The formula dried quickly, and I was able to then apply my mascara. I used Lancome Hypnose Drama Mascara (one of my favorites for dramatic lashes!), and applied two coats as I normally do.
I was very pleased with the results…my lashes didn’t feel sticky or clumpy, and it was almost as if I had applied just mascara, but with the added plumping and lengthening benefits. There is noticeable difference between applying this serum first versus applying just mascara.
I noticed that with DiorShow Maximizer, my lashes were longer, and thicker than with just mascara alone. I was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of my lashes when using this serum.
While I have only been using this product for a couple of weeks, I already notice a difference in the strength of my eyelashes. They fall out less when I am taking off my eye makeup, and they seem to hold up better to eyelash curling and mascara. One of the main things I love the most about this lash primer versus most others I have tried, is the “serum” formula. It is super lightweight and does not weigh down my lashes, making them look droopy and spidery. In my opinion, all eyelash primers should be in a lightweight serum formula like DiorShow Maximizer.
Bottom Line: If you’re looking for an eyelash primer, Dior DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum is a lightweight, effective, nourishing option. Not only does it give immediate hydration, curl, volume, and length, but it also makes your eyelashes healthier over time.

This is a wonderful product. I use it daily with my waterproof mascara. It does make my lashes long and plump. Every female should give it a try. You will wonder why you waited so long.
