Nostalgic Beauty Products

My fellow beauty blogger, Jeni at Savvy Skin, had a great post yesterday about her favorite products from her pre-teen/teen years. It got me thinking -- what were the products this beauty chick just couldn't live without as a youngster? Here's a sampling of what I was totally in love with back then. (And, actually, I still use quite a few of them to this day!)

1) Caress Body Wash: it smelled amazing, lathered up great and only cost about $4! And, ever since I first started using it in 1996, I've gone back to it again and again. Truth be told, there's always a bottle of it in my shower!

2) Bonne Bell Dr. Pepper Lip Smackers: Who could forget the smell and taste of this lip balm -- which was exactly like the tasty drink! And it's still a favorite today!

3) Bath & Body Works lipsticks: I was really partial to dark purple ones. With my coloring ... don't ask me why!

4) Jane mascara: It was about $2, which was definitely in my budget. And it really made my lashes look amazing.

5) Pantene Pro-V Shampoo and Conditioner (the kind that was supposed to leave your hair really straight and shiny): I never quite looked like the girls in the commercials, but hey -- at least it was a step in the right direction!

6) CoverGirl eyeliner: I loved the one with the clickable pen in both brown and black. Gave me a straight, smooth line every time!

Ahh, to be young again. What were your can't-live-without-it products back in the day? Let me know in the comments!
