80's/90's/00's Products You Still Miss!

[CoverMySoul]

For me, a gorgeous metallic bronze shadow and liner from Miss Selfridge. I think it was called Iron Lady?

Clinique City Block - the gold one that had a slight sheen to it. LOVED it.

Also a Dior rinse-off cleanser that came in a pale pink bottle. Can't remember the name, but it was lovely.

And Laura Biagiotti Venezia!

Anyone else?

I don't miss City Block as such but often think about it. It was quite an innovative product for the time - daily sunblock was not commonly used and I remember people looking at me a bit bemused whenever I said I used it.

To add my own - Cliniques Glossier mascara. It was available right up until a couple of years ago and I loved it. It just added a tiny amount of thin, glossy, understated oomph to your lashes. Nothing dramatic. It was perfect for me.

Ananya perfume from The Body Shop
Impulse body spray - Free Spirit

If you miss eau d’Eden, Floris Fleur is the best alternative I have found. I tried the original Eden and it was too heavy but the Floris is lovely!

Another vote for Clinique naturally glossy mascara and city block original!

Tribe perfume
Lou Lou Blue perfune. I never had the chance to own a bottle and I wouldn’t quite like to.

I miss Ruby and millie make up too. Lovely colours and brushes. Also.miss Miners 80s make up.and Mary Quant 80s range. Plus body shop passion fruit cleanser.

Blue corn scrub mask by Body Shop.

Clinique gentle light foundation and powder. Acqua di gio perfume.

God yes! So good.

Urban Decay lipsticks and eyeshadows before they twatted about becoming vegan and whatnot. Especially the Violate lipstick.

The Body Shop makeup when they first launched - great single eyeshadows.

So much is listed above that I miss, but especially the Vidal Sassoon shampoos.

Thanks for the memory of Impulse. There was one called Zen in an aerosol that was lots of shades of green.

The Spice Girls impulse was brilliant too.

I remember always taking a bottle of something from Impulse to spray after PE. We always shared and compared our sprays.

Laura Mercier does a block liner…

Sun Moon Stars by Karl Lagerfeld. God I loved that perfume so much, it suited me so well. I cannot find anything that comes close. There is a "new" version of it been brought out but it's nothing like the OG.

Ananya from The Body Shop. Hell just everything from The Body Shop in the 90's. I loved collecting the little animal soaps ❤️ put them in my knicker drawer and it always smelled lush!

XS Pour Elle by Paco Rabanne - LOVED it

Another vote for Clinique City Block

A Karen Millen pale nude/ pinky lip gloss that wasn't too sticky or glossy and was the perfect shade never to be found again

Ruby and Millie make up brushes especially the eyeshadow ones. I still have one going strong!

Loreal Lash Architect mascara - thickening and lengthening without clumping and stayed on really well

Can't remember it's name, but a Rimmel tinted moisturiser / bronzer with really light coverage that looked great, especially in summer

Lancome Flash Bronzer fake tan for face - never found anything better

Organic shampoo and conditioner
Body Shop green olive shower gel (c2000 - later versions were not the same)
Accessorise dangly earrings from the late 90s - layers of stars/discs, some hollow, some flat. I dream of finding some in charity shops as I am down to a single pair.

Michael kors glam jasmine perfume - although I've now got the Valentino Donna one which is similar

Body Shop products, and anything dewberry.

Tribe perfume.

Natrel Plus deodorant.

Miss Selfridge makeup, but more for the nice packaging than anything else.

Oh and Vaseline deodorant that was a cream. It smelled so nice and I was bone dry all day

Another fragrance one, and tbh the only Body Shop perfume I ever really loved - Midnight Bakula

Another one for Stella by Stella McCartney. Was divine. Still have a bottle somewhere.

Also Promesse by Cacharel. Anyone remember this one? It was a pink bottle.

The Gap fragrances from the 90s in the silver dispensers. Dream, Grass, Om - literally have spent years looking for similar scents.

A facial tanning gel.that you washed off by Bourjois.

Gio by Armani perfume

Think you can still get Tribe

A Clinique lipstick called raspberry crush

Magic Silver White
and
Magic Silver Rose

Also, lovely to be reminded of The Body Shop's Ananya fragrance! That was the first perfume I ever wore.
