NewBeauty Editors’ Picks: 7 Products We’ve Used for 10+ Years

Liz Ritter, Executive Managing Editor

I remember the first time I bought Dior Diorshow Mascara. I felt like a kid who had saved up her allowance to buy something totally decadent. I had never spent that much money on makeup at the time and I left Sephora feeling a rush of energy—I don’t even think I waited until I got home to put it on. One swipe and I was hooked. I’ve bought a ton of tubes over the years and there’s still something that gets me every time I twist open a new one. $28, sephora.com

Glō Minerals Liquid Lips is a nonsticky, super shiny lip gloss that gives just enough hydration and color. Plus, it’s unique cherry/cotton candy smell is highly addictive. $16, gloprofessionals.com

When I was younger, I loved the bright, bold purple and blue eyeshadows that Urban Decay offered. Now, with updated formulas, I tend to wear the more subtle, earth tones, but I still come back to them because they are always long-lasting and highly pigmented. $18, urbandecay.com

I have been using Bare Minerals Original Foundation for as long as I can remember. It’s safe to say well over 10 years! I love that it looks and feels like I’m not wearing any makeup at all and the result is flawlessly smooth, even-looking skin. No one has to know that my skin isn’t perfect. $28, bareescentuals.com

I continually use Retin-A simply because it works! Nothing else has helped to keep my skin as clear as this prescription. 

Margaret McGriff, Senior Web Editor

As a self-professed product junkie, I love trying new products, but when it comes to moisturizing my skin, Vaseline has always been my go-to brand. My current favorite is Vaseline Intensive Cocoa Radiant Lotion, which hydrates my super dry skin and delivers a softness that I just can’t live without. $4, target.com

I’ve been a Laura Geller fan (both her and the brand itself) for more than a decade. When I was younger, my mom used to buy Laura’s bundled kits on QVC and share her products with me. Laura Geller Bronze-N-Brighten, a baked bronzer-highlighter duo, has always been one of my favorites. It features swirls of color-correcting pigments that give my fair skin a beachy, natural-looking glow. I apply it with a big, fluffy brush so that it isn’t too concentrated, and it only takes a few swipes to get an even, luminous finish. $33, laurageller.com
