L'Oreal Paris Lineur Intense Brush Tip Liquid Eyeliner

Simply the best

I started using this eyeliner in high school in the mid 1980s when I decided that kohl and other pencils just didn't work (eye shape, too-oily skin, etc). Back then, it was really expensive when my income was from babysitting. Now that I actually pay taxes in my paycheck and can afford Sephora and the department stores, I do try the trendy and designer brands on occasion, but when this is the best, why bother? Like one of the other reviewers, I do worry that L'Oreal will discontinue it - which is why I keep a couple extra on hand at all times. And for those that can't manage the brush: just give it a second chance. You played dress-up as a child...no need to quit just because you have to go to work or school Monday morning.

Garnier Fructis Length & Strength Conditioner

My nails love this as much as my hair does

Like one of the other reviewers, I keep trying other products just because they're on the shelf, but inevitably, I have to come back. I keep my hair long, but subject it to a lot of torture & pain to get it straight every other day. My breakage is significantly less than with other conditioners in this category, and I've never felt my hair as over- or under-conditioned. Plus, as an added bonus, my fingernails (which are typically healthy anyhow) seem to be *really* happy getting a strengthening treatment every two days. Seriously!
