Channel N°5, Opium, Rouge Dior, And Other Iconic Cosmetics In Beauty History

The most interesting beauty products are those that female beauty artists and singers, expert makeup artists and regular fashion addicts return to again and again. What did they do to deserve such devotion?

Every scent, formula and shade has become a golden classic for a reason.

They work better than those that were created before them, and sometimes even those that were invented after. And in many cases, they changed the very development of the entire beauty industry: La Mer raised the bar for luxurious face cream, Calvin Klein made genderless fragrances the norm, and the perfume of the great Coco Chanel became iconic thanks to Marilyn Monroe – and this is not just perfume, this is the philosophy of “in bed.” I wear nothing but a drop of this perfume.” So, here are the 10 most iconic beauty products of all time.

Guerlain Météorites Highlighting Powder Pearls

This highlighter is truly stunning in every way – from the hand-crafted glowing pearls to the signature violet scent and the unmistakable luxurious jar with an intricate design on the lid.

Chanel N°5 Perfume


Extravagant floral and aldehydic notes of Chanel No. 5 is just part of why this perfume has influenced the entire beauty industry. Shrouded in myth and the glamor of old Hollywood, bottle No. 5 is still popular among both young and old fans of the fragrance.

Lipstick Dior Rouge Dior 999 Velvet

CD


Besides the number 5, 999 is perhaps the most recognizable number in the beauty world. This matte red lipstick from Dior is versatile and adored by generations of celebrities.

Since their appearance in 1977, they have been making you crazy, captivating and making you fall in love. Or vice versa, they cause irritation. There are, perhaps, simply no people who would be indifferent to this scent.

Lancôme Hypnôse Volumizing Mascara

Do you remember how delighted the very fact of owning this mascara was? It seems that even the gait and position of the head changed when the eyelashes were painted with her. Here it is, magic – and it really works!

Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation

This foundation is included in the kit of almost every makeup artist: It goes on evenly and looks fresh even several hours after application.

Moisturizing soft cream La Mer

La Mer Crème de la Mer gives the skin a feeling of tenderness, moisture and something else that can be briefly described as “expensive care”. And this, you know, is a very pleasant feeling that women don’t want to give up.

Pond’s Cold Cream

In 1846, American pharmacist Theron Pond patented his development under the name Pond’s Cold Cream. Initially, actors fell in love with it: they applied a thick cream before makeup to protect their skin, and after the performance they removed their makeup. Interestingly, the same first formula of the cream is still used today!

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

This mascara was created for teenagers (this is clear from the cheerful, bright design), but women of all ages love this small spiral. And the brush still seems to be one of the most convenient for effectively combing every eyelash. Despite all the newfangled technologies.

Unisex perfume Calvin Klein CK One

Yes, before the appearance of this perfume, versions of fragrances appeared that were suitable for both men and women at the same time. But it was Calvin Klein in the 90s who raised this concept to unprecedented fashion heights – and since then the unisex trend has become permanent.
