Some products take time to grow on you and a some (not enough) are instant hits. You tried it one time and it did what the marketing promised and what you expected and more. What are your instant hits?

Mine are:

Amla and Olive Oil Heavy Cream (Anything that can manage to make my pure-ancestry NG soft is a keeper)
Aveda Damage Remedy Shampoo (I often see the treatment and conditioner raved about here, but the 'poo is unfortunately (due to price) da bomb! Edged KC Detangling outta my life.
