Discontinued makeup brands you remember?

[Chouxs]

Evette, from Woolworths.
Didn't Debenhams briefly have their own range a few years ago?

I’d forgotten about Evette!

I loved Boots 17, I’ve still got a couple of concealers stashed which I bought when they were selling them cheap to clear the whole range.

Cover Girl was really good, no idea why they pulled out of the UK market because it seemed really popular.

There was a Wella shampoo and conditioner in the 1980s, a pale green colour which smelt amazing, it had a very herby scent and I’ve never found anything like it since.

I’m currently annoyed with Benefit for discontinuing their They’re Real mascara in brown (not an entire brand, I know) but it’s the only one that doesn’t smudge on me. Black is too harsh and the brown primer that the Benefit assistant recommended doesn’t last long on my lashes.

Shu uemura? @Jacaranda75

Sunsilk
Silvikrin
Creme Gloss

All shampoos

@KirstenBlest No, it wasn’t. The shop and the packaging were very pink.

Tangee make up circa 1972, my first pink pearly lipstick an the mascara I bought without knowing what it was for! had to ask DM what to do with it

@Jacaranda, I can't think of another one. Any idea what sort of name it was, and whereabouts in CG?

I used to love the packaging of Mary Quant. Matt black with a little silver flower, so stylish.

Leichner Light Years foundation & Mary Quant lipstick, was it called Grape Drape? A sheer purple colour

@Jacaranda75, was it Pout?

I've just reminded myself I need a new Bourjois bronze raffine eyeliner and managed to get the last 2 anywhere.Cant belive it's been discontinued 😞

Jacaranda75 was it Charles Fox? There was also an own brand shop in Motcomb Street I can’t remember the nane.

@KirstenBlest Yes! It was Pout! Loved that shop .

I've got a lipstick from there. Somewhere

I loved Neal Street East

I also liked the make up in Agnes B

John Lewis’ own brand called Silver Line . Black tubes with a silver line around them.
Great value and the best coral lipstick ever.

@KirstenBlest

I also liked the make up in Agnes B

I still use my Agnes B makeup bag!

It always felt very French and chic, Agnes B.

@Jacaranda75

There was a make-up shop in Covent Garden who sold their own range. They went out of business about 15 years ago. Does anyone remember it? I bought loads from them as I worked in Covent Garden.

Pout.

Brilliant make up and I still use one of their eyeshadow blending brushes.

@PearlAsylum, I love the shop. Have several make-up bags and a snap cardigan.

Ruby and Millie did these brilliant lipstick/gloss things with a click up brush.

Une - also in Boots. Brilliant lip tints

Mary Quant nail varnish and their sugar almond blusher.

@JaneJeffer

Barbara Daly from Tesco. Really miss it.

The best foundation ever.

Does anyone remember Sensiq? I think that was it's name. In marbled packaging it looked quite smart. I think it was made by Rimmel and was supposed to be slightly higher end.

Calvin Klein makeup.

I'm going to miss Lipstick Queen.

My old favourite ms have already been mentioned but they are
Charles if the Ritz. I had a brilliant khaki coloured eyeshadow. Doesnt sound great but it was a great colour on me
Prescetives. I still have a very bold red lipstick that I use very sparingly as it is the most perfect lipstick for me
I used to buy Charles of the Ritz and Prescriptives at Kendals in Manchester.
A more recent one which was a celebrity flash in the pan one is Panda something or other by Claudia Winkleman. It was one of the Christmas Boots gift packs but the primer was fabulous.Best ive ever had. I've still got the Bronzer which us good.

Theres a couple of other brands that they sold in Kendals and it's annoying me that I cant think what they are called!!

Barbara Daly from Tesco. Really miss it
I love the liquid highlighter.
I'm going to admit to bulk buying and still have some unopened and still in the box!
