Jane Cosmetics Multi-Colored Multi-Colored Bronzing Powder

Anyone who stored their makeup in a Caboodles case in the ’90s definitely had a ton of Jane Cosmetics products. The brand was the one you’d save your allowance to buy and then use to experiment with bright looks with your friends in your parent’s basement. The brand reappeared on shelves a few years ago with a new, fresh look, but with the affordable prices and playful, easy-to-use products — like multi-colored bronzers and blushes — OG fans remember. 

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat

Created in 1992, the concealer has long cemented its icon status and it’s still one of the best concealers around. Its’ micro-pearl finish and vitamin E and hyaluronic acid-infused formula makes your skin look flawless and radiant.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Midnight Cowboy

Urban Decay has been known for its bold and edgy aesthetic since 1995. Despite this, one of its most popular and enduring products is the shimmery, neutral-pink eyeshadow shade Midnight Cowboy. It first launched in 1998 and has been a top-seller ever since. 

Hard Candy Desert Fever Eyeshadow Palette

In the 90s, Hard Candy was known for its nail polish that came with collectible plastic rings (“Sky” was the must-have shade). Sadly the brand no longer sells nail polish, but it recently relaunched with an expansive range of fun eye, lip and face products that are all affordably-priced (nothing is over $10!) and are in line with the brand’s “freedom, fluidity and unfiltered expression” ethos. One of our favorite products is the Desert Fever Eyeshadow Palette that has everything you need to create a playful, summery look.
