100 Iconic Fashion and Beauty Products That Have Stood the Test of Time
Every single one is an oldie but goodie.
No matter how old you are, there are certain products—a perfume, a pair of classic pumps, a nail polish shade—that will always take you back to a specific time period. A shade of lipstick could remind you of your mother, like M.A.C.'s Ruby Woo (which Tracee Ellis Ross stole from her mother Diana Ross in the '90s and still wears to this day), or a whiff of Chanel No.5 that might remind you of your beloved great-aunt. Some products are so good you can't help but go back to them time and time again, just like your mother (and maybe even your grandmother!) did before you. We depend on them to get us through our coldest winters, roughest sunburns, and in our greatest fashion moments. Below, we've rounded up 100 timeless beauty and fashion items you're sure to pass on to your loved ones in the future. You've probably heard of most of them, but if you haven't been introduced to these classics yet, you're so very welcome.
