10 legendary cosmetics

In the beauty industry, new products are emerging at a cosmic speed, and trends are changing even faster. Despite this, there are cosmetic products created several decades ago, but they are still popular. Of course, their formula changes slightly, but their basis remains unchanged.

The fragrance, created back in 1921, remains the best-selling fragrance around the world. The story is that in 1920 Dmitry Romanov introduced Coco to the perfumer Ernest Bo, who worked for the Romanov family for a long time. It was he who was able to offer Mrs. Chanel several samples of perfume compositions. Coco chose one, which consisted of more than 80 different ingredients, complex and unusual – just the way she wanted it.

The cream, familiar to everyone almost from birth, in a blue jar Nivea appeared on the market in 1911. It was a real sensation, because until then there was not a single moisturizer. It contained panthenol, glycerin and eurecite. In fact, the cream has hardly changed in its properties and is popular even now.

Тушь Great Lash, Maybelline New York

The Maybelline brand was founded in 1915, and they released their first mascara in 1917. The demand for mascara grew at an incredible rate, but the truly legendary specimen, which is still on sale today, is the Great Lash. It was created in 1971 and its formula was water-based. This mascara is the number one selling mascara in the United States.

Classic Moisturizing Lip Balm, Carmex

Many people think that a fashionable lip balm, which, by the way, very coolly restores the delicate skin of the lips, was born not so long ago. In fact, Carmex was created back in 1937. The founder of the brand, Alfred Wahlbing, sometimes suffered from the fact that his lips became very dry, so he decided to come up with his own remedy from camphor oil, menthol and lanolin. It was only in 1973 that he opened his own laboratory and became the market leader.

Крем Cream of the Sea, The Sea

One of the most expensive moisturizers was created more than 50 years ago, and its cost, by the way, was very high back in those days. Once the American physicist Max Huber received a burn during an unsuccessful experiment, after this incident he decided to create a cream that could heal wounds. And he created Crème de la Mer, La Mer, which also rejuvenated the skin of the face. Since then, the formula of the cream has not changed.

Ambre Solaire line, Garnier

At the beginning of the last century, fair skin was in vogue, so the girls even then took care of the health of their skin and in every possible way hid it from the sun. More than 80 years ago, the Ambre Solaire line was launched to become the expert in UV protection. Almost every year the line is replenished with new products with updated formulas.

Founded by innovator Armand Petitjean in 1935, the brand has grown rapidly. Already in 1936, Lancôme launched their first Nutrix skin care line. The products had a regenerating effect, and some women used it for literally all skin problems: burns, insect bites and allergies. This line is still incredibly popular today.

The familiar Poison fragrance was created in 1985 by perfumer Edouard Fleschier. The composition consisted of wild berries, cloves, musk, cinnamon, cedar, incense, coriander, anise and vanilla. He became so popular and recognizable that literally everyone began to love him. The fragrance is still on sale, and sometimes new versions of the famous perfume appear.

Lait-Crème Concentrè milk cream, Embryolisse

The cream was developed in the 1950s by a French dermatologist who knew about skin pathologies. It included shea butter, beeswax, aloe vera and soy proteins. Since then, its formula has changed somewhat, but the main ingredients have remained unchanged. The moisturizer for the face is still one of the best from the brand.

Линия Magic Nature, Aldo Coppola

The Italian brand Aldo Coppola has been around for over 50 years and is more specialized in haircuts and dyeing. However, about 25 years ago, they decided to create their own hair care products and introduced the world to the Natura Magica line, which consists entirely of natural ingredients: glyricidia seeds, nettle extract, ginseng, rosemary and mint. The composition has never changed for 25 years, many clients note that hair grows much faster after use. Here it is, Italian magic!
