a few weeks ago i reccieved a newsletter about diorshow mascara promotion.

i've read some good reviews about this mascara, but i won't buy it. as you see from the link above to sephora's website, it's usd$24. it retails at aud$52! the exchange rate is approximately usd$0.9 to aud$1 at the moment. see how expensive things are here in australia?

i thought a $16 maybelline great lash mascara is expensive. paying $52 for something that will only last me 3 months (or less) is too steep!

mascara promotions always show models with full and lenghty lashes. are these the result of using diorshow mascara or falsies?

sometimes i think they should get me to model mascara. i think it will really sell if there exists a mascara that will make my short and barely visible lashes end up looking like this.

note: the images are sliced from the image in the newsletter.
