My favorite drugstore product that I've never been able to replicate was the Illegal Lengths Lengthening Mascara by Maybelline.  Now they have all these other silly sky high curves and such.  I can use an eyelash curler for that thanks.  The formula was soft and glossy and easy to wash off but not runny.  And tons of length.  Could be applied multiple times without clumping if the lashes were combed in between applications.  Maybelline, bring back Illegal Lengths.  We miss you!!! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
