     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Del
     Laboratories, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in

     its 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders. Users of financial information
     produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the footnotes
     contained in the Annual Report to Shareholders when reviewing interim
     financial results.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements
     contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
     adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
     position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for interim

  3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

    Earnings per share is computed in accordance with the provisions of
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
    Share", which became effective for the Company as of December 31, 1997.
    Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common
    shareholders (which for the Company equals its recorded net income) by the
    weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
    Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur
    if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock
    options, were exercised, converted into common stock or otherwise resulted
    in the issuance of common stock.

4.   COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
     Comprehensive Income". This Statement requires that all items recognized

     reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same
     prominence as other financial statements. Other comprehensive income may
     include foreign currency translation adjustments, minimum pension liability
     adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities
     classified as available for sale. The components of comprehensive income
     for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 are
     as follows:

5.   GAIN ON SALE OF FACILITY

     In February, 1999, the Company sold a warehouse facility in Plainview, New
     York for net proceeds of $2.5 million. At December 31, 1998, this facility
     was included in property, plant and equipment and was accounted for as a
     held for sale asset.

6.   SEGMENT INFORMATION

     At December 31, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about
     Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". This statement
     established standards for reporting information about operating segments
     and related disclosure about products and services and geographic areas.
     The Company operates in two segments, Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical, that
     have been organized by the products and services they offer. The Cosmetic
     segment's principal products are nail care, nail color, color cosmetics,
     beauty implements, bleaches and depilatories, personal care products and
     other related cosmetic items. The Pharmaceutical segment's principal
     products are proprietary oral analgesics, acne treatment products and first
     aid products. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those
     described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company
     evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on operating
     income. Certain assets, including property, plant and equipment and
     deferred tax assets, are not allocated to the identifiable segments.
     However, depreciation and amortization of unallocated assets are charged to
     each segment.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

(1)  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 1999 VERSUS JUNE 1998

     NET SALES

     Net sales for the second quarter of 1999 were $70.6 million, a decrease of
     4.6% compared to $74.0 million in 1998. Net sales for the first six months
     of 1999 were $132.3, a decrease of 5.1% compared to $139.4 million in 1998.

     Cosmetic net sales for the second quarter were $54.8 million, a decrease of
     6.3% compared to $58.5 million in 1998. Cosmetic net sales for the first
     six months of 1999 were $101.5 million, a decrease of 7.7% compared to
     $110.0 million in 1998. The decrease is principally due to lower shipments
     of the Naturistics cosmetics and bath & body care line and higher product
     returns.

     Pharmaceutical net sales for the second quarter of 1999 were $15.8 million,
     an increase of 2% compared to $15.5 million in 1998. Pharmaceutical net
     sales for the first six months of 1999 were $30.8, an increase of 4.8%
     compared to $29.4 million in 1998. The increase is due primarily to volume
     growth in the Orajel family of products.

     COST OF SALES

     Cost of sales for the second quarter of 1999 were $30.7 million, or 43.5%
     of net sales, as compared to $29.4 million, or 39.8% of net sales in 1998.
     Cost of sales for the six months of 1999 were $58.5 million, or 44.2% of
     net sales, as compared to $54.9 million, or 39.4% of net sales in 1998. The
     increase in cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, is due principally
     to lower shipments of the Naturistics cosmetics and bath & body care line,
     higher product returns and a change in the mix of business within the
     cosmetic division compared to prior year.

     SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

     Selling and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 1999 were
     $35.7 million, or 50.6% of net sales, as compared to $36.0 million, or
     48.6% of net sales in 1998. Selling and administrative expenses for the
     first six months of 1999 and 1998 were $69.6 million, or 52.6% of net sales
     in 1999, compared to 49.9% in 1998.

     GAIN ON SALE OF FACILITY

     In February, 1999, the Company sold a warehouse facility in Plainview, New
     York for $2.7 million. At December 31, 1998, this facility was included in
     property, plant and equipment and was accounted for as a held for sale
     asset.

     NET INTEREST EXPENSE

     Interest expense, net of interest income, for the first six months of 1999
     was $2.7 million, compared to $2.0 million in 1998. The increase is due to
     higher average borrowings during the first six months of 1999, as compared
     to the first six months of 1998, principally due to the financing of the
     acquisition of intellectual property rights and other assets of the
     CornSilk brand of facial make-up in May 1998.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

     PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

     The provision for income taxes is based on the Company's expected effective
     annual tax rate of 40% in 1999 compared to 41% in 1998.

     NET EARNINGS

     Net earnings for the first six months of 1999 were $1.9 million, compared
     to $7.7 million in 1998. The decrease is due primarily to the reduction in
     gross margin.

(2)  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At June 30, 1999, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.3 million
     as compared to $.3 million at June 30, 1998.

     Net cash used in operating activities was $3.4 million for the six months
     ended June 30, 1999, primarily due to an increase in inventories of $9.3
     million to support new product lines and promotional sales, and an increase
     in accounts receivable of $8.5 million due to the timing of second quarter
     shipments; partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $4.7
     million and accrued liabilities of $4.6 million.

     Cash of $2.5 million was provided by the sale of a facility in the first
     quarter of 1999. Cash used for property, plant and equipment additions was
     $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $2.9
     million in 1998.

     Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30,
     1999 was $2.6 million, due primarily to proceeds received under a four year
     credit agreement with a bank and short-term borrowings under a line of
     credit with a bank, partially offset by repayments of short term borrowings
     and acquisition of treasury stock.

     On June 10, 1999, the lender under the $20 million Credit Agreement
     waived compliance with certain financial covenants and certain of the
     financial covenants in the Credit Agreement were amended through March
     30, 2000.

     The Company believes that cash from future operations, cash on hand and
     amounts available from short-term credit facilities, will be sufficient to
     satisfy the Company's liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

     YEAR 2000 CONVERSION

     The Company is addressing the issue of many existing computer programs
     using only the last two digits to refer to a year. Some of these computer
     programs do not properly recognize a year that begins with "20" instead of
     the familiar "19". If not corrected, many computer applications could fail
     or create erroneous results. A committee specifically created to resolve
     Year 2000 issues meets regularly. It is led by a member of the Board of
     Directors and comprised of senior corporate executives and an outside
     expert, as well as sub-committees and task forces.

     The Company's efforts to identify and address issues relating to its
     readiness for Year 2000 have included the following: the identification
     phase (100% complete) consisting of computer based systems, software, third
     party programs and all hardware including embedded microprocessors. The
     assessment phase (100% complete) has focused on those applications most
     critical to the business including examination of all coding used for date
     calculations. The remediation phase (approximately 95% complete) consists
     of systems changes, where necessary, by replacement, modification or
     upgrade. The testing phase (approximately 75% complete) includes full
     system tests where systems dates are rolled forward on test machines to
     check performance and computational accuracy. All significant suppliers,
     customers and financial institutions, as well as all customers doing
     business electronically with the Company, have been contacted in order to
     identify potential areas of concern. It is anticipated that all of the
     above phases will be substantially completed by September 1999.


                                      -10-
<PAGE>

     YEAR 2000 CONVERSION (CONTINUED)

     The Company currently estimates that remediation costs will not exceed
     $1,000,000 for replacement systems, discovery tools and expenses necessary
     to achieve Year 2000 compliance.

     Improper or inadequate remediation of Year 2000 problems by parties with
     whom the Company does business could adversely affect the Company's supply
     chain and subsequently the ability to effectively manage production and
     distribution activities. In addition, administrative functions essential to
     the day to day operations of the business could be impaired if Year 2000
     remediation is not completed in a timely manner. Due to the general
     uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting primarily from the
     uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of parties with whom the Company
     does business, the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the
     consequences of Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on the
     Company's results of operations, liquidity or financial condition.

     The Company is currently identifying and documenting potential business
     disruptions and continuity planning procedures. The focus of this activity
     is on potential failures of internal and external systems required to carry
     out normal business operations, including services provided by the public
     infrastructure such as electric power, transportation and
     telecommunications. The Company expects this activity to be an on-going
     process well into the third quarter of 1999.

     The above comments on the Year 2000 issue contain forward-looking
     statements relating to the Company's plans, strategies, objectives,
     intentions, and resources that should be read in conjunction with the
     following disclosure on Forward-Looking Statements.

     NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
     Hedging Activities" (SFAS No. 133) as amended by SFAS 137, which is
     effective for quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
     SFAS No. 133 provides guidance for accounting for all derivative
     instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
     contracts, and for hedging activities. The management of the Company
     does not believe that the implementation of SFAS No. 137 will have a
     significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

     FORWARD - LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Results of Operations and
     Financial Condition and other sections of this Form 10-Q include
     "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the

     the dependence on certain national chain drug stores and mass merchandiser
     relationships due to the concentration of sales generated by such chains,
     changes in fashion oriented color cosmetics trends, and trends in the
     general economy.

     Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
     statements, which reflect management's analysis, judgment, belief or
     expectation only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no
     obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect

               (a)         Section 2.05 of the Agreement shall be amended to
read in its entirety as follows:

                    SECTION 2.05. APPLICABLE MARGIN The Applicable Margin for
Revolving Credit Loans shall be determined on the basis of the Borrower's Debt
to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable Margin), as calculated based on the Borrower's
consolidated financial statements for its most recent fiscal year or quarter.
The Bank shall determine the Applicable Margin within five (5) Business Days
after it has received the financial statements of the Borrower as required by
Section 5.01(b)(i) or (ii), as applicable. The Bank shall promptly notify the
Borrower of such determination, which shall be conclusive, in the absence of
manifest error. The Applicable Margin shall be determined as follows:

         (i)      The initial Applicable Margin shall be 85 basis points
and shall be applicable until five (5) Business Days after delivery of the
Borrower's consolidated financial statements for its fiscal year ending December
31, 1998 pursuant to Section 5.01(b) hereof.

         Beginning five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Borrower's
consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1998,
and for each fiscal year or quarter thereafter:

                  (ii) If the Borrower's Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable
Margin) as of the end of such fiscal year or quarter is equal to or less than
1.50 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin shall be 70 basis points.

                  (iii) If the Borrower's Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable
Margin) as of the end of such fiscal year or quarter is greater than 1.50 to 1.
00 but equal to or less than 2.00 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin shall be 85
basis points.

         (iv) If the Borrower's Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable Margin) as of
the end of such fiscal year or quarter is greater than 2.00 to 1.00, but equal
to or less than 2.25 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin shall be 100 basis points.

         (v) If the Borrower's Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable



                                       3
<PAGE>


Margin) as of the end of such fiscal year or quarter is greater than 2.25 to
1.00, but equal to or less than 2.50 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin shall be 125
basis points.

        (vi) If the Borrower's Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable Margin) as of
the end of such fiscal year or quarter is greater than 2.50 to 1.00, but equal
to or less than 2.75 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin shall be 150 basis points.

        (vii) If the Borrower's Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable Margin) as of
the end of such fiscal year or quarter is greater than 2.75 to 1.00, the
Applicable Margin shall be 175 basis points.

         The Applicable Margin for any Eurodollar Loan shall change during the
term of such Eurodollar Loan as a result of this Section 2.05.

         In the event that the Borrower fails to deliver any financial
statements and the related certificate on the due date therefor set forth in
Section 5.01(b) (i) or (ii) hereof, unless an Event of Default is declared as a
result of such failure, the Applicable Margin shall be 175 basis points until
the Borrower delivers all required financial statements and certificates at
which time the Applicable Margin shall be redetermined as provided for in this
Section 2.05.

        Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event
of Default the Applicable Margin may, as a result of changes in the Borrower's
Debt to EBITDA Ratio (Applicable Margin), increase but will not decrease.

             (b) Section 5.01 (b)(i) and (ii) of the Agreement shall be amended
to read in their entirety as follows:
