As a teenager of the 80’s my favorite makeup item next to blue and purple mascara was my monthly Seventeen magazine where we learned makeup techniques, evaluated our boyfriend and set goals for prom dresses and kept up with Johnny Depp in Hollywood photos of the newest heartthrob. Best decade ever.
I would never have thought of Nicole Kidman as a queen of 80s movies. So many others were much more popular. She was just coming onto the scene towards the end . Ally Sheedy, Julia Robert's, Molly Ringwald, Demi Moore etc.
She wasn't. She had appeared, albeit sparingly, on Australian teen mag covers of the time, one being Dolly mag and a notable 80s Aussie movie called:BMX Bandits
I’m 63 now and spent my entire 20’s in the 80’s living in downtown Chicago. What a blast. Such amazing music. Very optimistic and creative time. It seems like yesterday but makes me feel old.
I’m still waiting for big hair to make its comeback! I graduated high school in 1986 and it was the BEST decade EVER! I’d go back in a DeLoren if Marty McFly is available! 😍
I'll be 50 next year and I'm glad to have gone from a little kid to a teenager in the 80s. We got to experience that awesome toys, the fun pre-teen things and the teenage stuff all in one decade.
I wore exclamation and navy perfume. Omg l loved the 80s. I was born in 72. I loved the clothes and music. I wish the clothes would come back in style!
@666 Black Carbon, Funny you should say that, I can remember, maybe about 10 years ago, I was looking for a particular back in the day product, and I went to some of the older stores, like what you mentioned, looking for certain back in the day products. Just for the nostalgia and to try them again. I remember LemonUp shampoo, Jhirmack, and Jean Nate lol. What got me to do this, one day I was in a drug store and I found my favorite high school perfume. Anais Anais. Sadly, it didn't have the same fragrance as back in early 80s.
As a kid growing up in rainy England, America always looked so much more fun 😂😂 I loved all the mini series we got in the 80s and The Golden Girls (I still watch one every day on The Disney Channel to cheer myself up) So lovely reading all the comments on this video ❤
I love all the British heavy metal bands that were from there. Priest, Maiden, Sabbath, Motorhead, Def Leppard, etc... And of course all the great New Wave bands, too. Lots of great music hails from your country!!!
This has me very nostalgic. I was a preteen in the 80’s. I’m surprised you didn’t mention Pantene. Kelly LeBrock’s”don’t hate me because I’m beautiful”. That shampoo is excellent, even on ethnic hair such as mine. Lee Press On nails never stayed on. They even had press on nails for teens, they still didn’t stay on.🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️.
The 80s fashion was so bold and colorful, make up trends were fun and cool. Today is all about perfection and 10 million steps to achieve the no make up look. I remember the scent LouLou by cacharel, my mom used to wear it, then she changed to Paris by YSL
@@debh3404 I know! However during the 90's was her perfume. Something similar they did to Opium. I don't know about LouLou, I liked it, but it is a "weird" scent, like new doll/old make up smell 😅
@@gardendormouse6479 LouLou has been my signature scent for the last 35 years… I would wear it literally every day if it weren’t such a PITA to replace…
Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I was in my 20s in the 1980s and it truly was a fabulous time! The music was the best! My 30 year old son now loves 80s music!
I was in my 20’s, but I was married for the first 6 years. I got divorced, and I had a lot of fun after. I wore Giorgio, but I changed to Poison, post divorce. I had permed hair, so I had big hair, and my eye makeup was sparkly, and I always wore eyeliner. We wore a lot of makeup back then, but I didn’t have to deal with wrinkles like I do now. The music was awesome, and we went dancing as much as we could! I do think that those were wonderful days! I would love to go to the clubs, and dance again!!!
I graduated in 83. I remember lining my eyes with the red stick Maybelline eye liner in rich black and you had to melt it with a lighter before putting it on.🤣I had 3 swatches, wore Obsession, used sea breeze and LALooks hair gel and wore one cross earring in my left ear.
Yes I would also melt the eyeliner back then, even here recently have had too since most pencil eyeliners have gotten hard to use again, nostalgia but don’t mind using the lighter again, I feel 15-16 again doing so and I’m a 56 year old grandma now…
I was a kid in the 80s, I remember with fondness the scent Dior Poison (purple bottle). My mother, aunts, cousins, neighbours used this and the scent just lingered on, everywhere, screamed Alexis from Dynasty. I buy it today, just takes me back to late 80s best times as a kid.
Omg, same. I used to love hugging my aunt Debbie because she always wore Poison and it smelled SO beautiful on her. I always have a bottle of it on my vanity and my 10 yr old daughter always reaches for it when I tell her she can wear one of my perfumes.
I was in junior high and hs from '82-'88. The blue eyeshadow trend was more late 70's or very early 80's. Maybe blue eyeliner had a moment in the 80's but nobody wore blue eyeshadow. I remember purple and pink being more trendy for the majority of the 80's
I remember neutrals being all the rage... in the early 80s I had a big Calvin Klein make set from one of those cosmetic of the month clubs... Remember those. We laughed at women still wearing blue shadow.
I have decided to go back to the neons, big hair, bold patterns and unique textures of past decades. I am ready to look like Barbie mated with Dolly Parton and gave birth to Romy and Michelle who adopted Elle Woods.
These videos are so comforting. I love watching all the vintage clips and photos. I’m 26 so not an 80s child whatsoever. I do love the fashions and grew up with the music though!
As a GenX Babe who was a teenager to college student in the 80s, and I worked for Lancome....blue eyeshadow was way more prevalent in the 70s. Now bright pastels, neons, metallics, and jewel tones were very common.
I tried but I think they changed the formula or the inventory was old and the scent changed …but I still have them …couldn’t bear to throw them out lol😂
I wish Maybelline would bring back their Kissing Potions roller boll gloss. I still use Bonne Bell Lip Smackers. I have Dr Pepper. I had Loves Baby Soft fragrance also.
There is a company that brought back the Kissing Potions, but I don’t know how close it is to the original. They also make the lip balm in the tins from the 80’s.
Thanks for .this look at the iconic beauty products of the 80’s. I was in my 20’s in the 1980s. My beauty icon was Victoria Principal, plus the super models of the era: Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Christie Brinkley, Paulina Porizkova, Kim Alexis and Claudia Schiffer were among my favorites. Lancôme was my favorite beauty brand. I worked at the fragrance counter at Robinsons and Saks Fifth Ave department stores in the mid 80’s so the fragrances of the 1980s really have stuck with me- in particular, YSL Opium, YSL Paris, Anais Anais by Cacharel, Giorgio Beverly Hills, Ombré Rose by Jean Charles Brosseau, Tea Rose by Perfumers Workshop, Dior’s Poison and Dioressence were the heavy hitting perfumes I remember wearing the most.
"Charlie" with Cindy Crawford as model was huge in the UK and so was "Miss Selfridge" body spray from Selfridges London; also Impulse body sprays and the scented foaming body moisturiser similar to hair products
@yanah.965 Do you remember if Saks sold *Bijan perfume?* I was a poor college kid in the late 80s and some rich donors held a Christmas party for th radio station where I was a dj. In each of the party gift bags was a small bottle of Bijan. I remember the bottle shape, and vaguely remember the perfume. 😊
I remember a good smelling shampoo from the 80's called, 'Gee, your hair smells terrific'. The 1st time I smelled Paris Hilton 'Heiress' long ago, I kept thinking it smelled like something I'd smelled before. That shampoo is what came to mind
I was hoping someone would mention Jean Naté! It was one of those ubiquitous scents …like Love’s Baby Soft and Heaven Scent …all of which could be found for sale in every drug store or discount department store beauty section. Those 3 fragrances were always on my vanity throughout my teens.
This was amazing!!! I was a kid in the early 80s and a teenager obviously in the later 80s!!! This bought back so many memories!!!! I miss these days and always will!!!!! Wish they would come back!! It’s Christmas time, hey anyone that sees this, look up 80s Christmas commercials, it is such a great delight and such a treat!!! I love it!!!
I was in middle school, high school, and college on the 80s (graduated from high school in 86, from college in 90). I remember all of these products. Loving this series!
We lined our inner eyes with blue liner & wore "Coty Wild Musk." We couldn't live without our electric hot rollers & aqua net hair spray for those "large" hairstyles. Indian Earth bronzer gave us that sun kissed look. Bonne Bell had some beautiful lipstick 💄 colors that are now sadly discontinued. We also wore Gunne Sax dresses & were required to lay down to zip up our Calvin Klein & Dittos Jeans. We wore enormous chandelier & hoop earring styles that we bought at "Contempo Casuals" store. Loved the 80's! Oh yes, and most of us didn't have Cell Phones yet or pc's.
Love the 80s. V-neck Shaker knit sweaters over brightly-colored tank tops. Permed my hair to death. Zena jeans. Obsession and Ciara perfume. Fair Isle sweaters and slouchy ankle boots.
I was in my 20s back then and the one thing I really liked and miss today is that the matte shadows were pretty and fun. But, you could also go for a sophisticated look as well. It was so much better then the shiny glitter overload of today. It's like shadow is for 12 yr olds today. Not adult women. I really liked the makeup and perfumes of the time. 80s was such a great decade. It was like the decade of summer.
I would like to add that women in their 50s and 60s could wear makeup and do themselves up and they looked fabulous. With today's makeup is more harsh and aging. You don't see women over 35 or 40 do much other then moisturizer and do a simple hair because alot of stuff make them look older. At least that is my opinion
I equate Love's Baby Soft, gel cheek stains, PH changing lipsticks & rollerball lip glosses with the 70s. Same with blue eyeshadow & colored mascaras. The big hair craze of the 80s definitely started in the 70s with Farrah Fawcett. It's funny how certain products have stuck around for decades & which decade you associate them with often depends on when you were a teen/tween. (1978-82 all kind of blurs together fashion wize for me)
Thank you for this I was born in 77 so I rember the 80s well. Still my favorite decade 💙 Salon selectives apple 🍎 scent brings back memories of 8th grade our school bathroom always was full of the hair spray I miss the original so much
@@rachellemini8632 it was the best! Sky high bangs abd banana clips and spiral perms every girl had a spritz bottle of salon selective and sun ripened raspberry from bath n body works brings back memories 😛❤

OMG!!!! I HAD to watch this vid when I saw Kissing Koolers in the thumbnail!😃 I was in middle school from 89-92 and they are a MAJOR blast of nostalgia. I owned many, but remember Cherry Cola being my favorite flavor🍒🥤 Also, I STILL have my Caboodle from eighth grade and use it to store my beauty samples😅 ETA: Love's Baby Soft was my first perfume! I now use it as a 'round the house fragrance, lol.
Thanks for the memories. I was a teen in the 80s. I wore Lace by Yardley and Oscar de la Renta's Ruffles perfume. I remember using Sun In to lighten my hair and Do Do Do hair gel in pink. Great video. Thank you for all the hard work.
Anyone remember Dippidy-do hair gel in the little glass jar? Sorry if the spelling is off on that.🤣 Big hair and space bangs were both so popular back then.
Later eighties, but also Guess jeans, Palmettos, Jams, Spuds Mackenzie and SWatch (and George Michael!) Early eighties, the BEST play makeup and #1 toy of the year was Fresh ‘N’ Fancy. I would love to see a video on Fresh ‘N’ Fancy!!!
💗💗💗💗 wow so cool remembering all these Awsome products and packaging. I loved the peel off nail polish💗💗 Anyone remember LA Gear? Im hoping and excited for a 90' video!! Thx Laura 💗
I couldn’t have describe the 80’s better. I came of age from 80-89 and partook in these trends. Covergirl was my “ride or die” cosmetic. I miss the quality & selection Covergirl use to have. BRAVO 👏🏼 for creating this video. ✌🏻💖💄
OMG what a throwback. I was obsessed with Lip Smackers and Kissing Coolers! A few more I remember: Studio Line by L'Oreal, Exclamation perfume, Fido Dido hair gel (for the boys) :-P
i miss Revlon Flex shampoo and conditioner !! my mother and i would use this & i would love to smell it again just to remind me of her. She was so glamorous and beautiful with her flowing golden hair.
Another 1982 high school graduate here. I had a Dr Pepper lip smacker, and a bubble gum Maybelline lip gloss roller. Dynasty was a popular show, and I loved the scent Forever Krystal inspired by the Linda Evans character. The lotion had a shimmer, like crystals! White Diamonds was another favorite in college. That one made by Elizabeth Taylor.
I was in my 20s in the 80s. I sold cosmetics for several years at the mall and applied makeup during consultations. I had experience with both high end and drugstore brands of that day. I really miss Geminesse makeup particularly their powder eyeshadow, excellent quality, creamy formula, way ahead of their time. I will say that drugstore cosmetics available today are much better quality than they were back then! Even better than most high end products of the 80s. We thought we were so edgy and rebellious back then with our looks! 😂 Mall bangs, the higher the better and perms were a big thing too. Oh! And the shoulder pads! The broader the better!
I was in my teens in the 80s. First love. First make-up and perfumes. First job with my own money to spend! I used Love's Baby Soft and Bonne Bell lip products before getting to my late teens and wearing Revlon Intimate Musk. I started using Covergirl makeup, and wore only bright blue eyeliner and blue mascara for a couple of years. I used Prell shampoo and Mink hairspray. My hairstyle was achieved with a curling iron and hairspray every morning. It took me 30-45 minutes to do my hair each time. I switched to Rave in the 90s when I wanted "b*tch flip" bangs. Thanks for this nostalgic trip. I enjoyed it very much.
This video took me down memory lane, many sweet memories!!! I was a teenager from the eighties and can remember everything that I did. I named my only child and daughter Alexis, after my favorite character from the eighties tv soap, 'Dynasty'. I had the biggest crush on Don Johnson from Miami Vice. I'm still stuck in the eighties and don't regret it. ❤️
Only Laura could do the 80’s justice like this. Wow, I loved loved loved this time in my life. Thank you, Laura. My eyes nearly teared up watching this.
This might be more 70,s than 80,s but who else remembers Rubiglo, the India Earth multi purpose make up in the terra cotta pot? It looked awful on me with my fair coloring but I haaad to have it! PS I'm class of 84😊
Yes! I loved that stuff! Rubiglo is out of business but indian earth is still in production. I didn't know it was available in different colors...I think the rubiglo was just one...
Thanks for the memories, which is amazing that I actually remember these products after my youth of inhaling my mothers AQUA NET HAIR SPRAY killing my brain cells and the OZONE LAYER lol 😂 😅
As a kid in the 80's I can remember the Calvin Klein perfume commercials, and all the kid like necklace makeup. Where has the time gone 🤦🤦😂😂 Obsession will stay on you all day. Love it! Caboodles we're so popular. 😂 This entire video was so nostalgic. Thank you 😊
Yes! I had salon selectives, kissing potion, grape Bonne bell lipsmacker, wella balsam, finesse for hair, sunsilk for hair, Maybelline moisture whip foundation, ponds light moisturizer
Remember the rock hard eyeliner in the red wood pencil form? All the girls had it and would be in the bathroom of the club heating it up with a lighter to soften it... I still use pan stick for under eye concealer... only available online now.... Used to put a drop of vitamin E on the stick to enrich it when my skin felt dry.
I wear Coco channel even now. I remember being a kid when it came out but now days I keep it for special occasions or dinners out. It's to my mind a fantastic winter perfume. It's very boozy.
I used to love Max Factor in the 80s. Even though it's an old brand. I wasn't a big fan of drugstore makeup in those times because it wasn't that good but MF always gave good results.
They knew how to do blush and foundation. I wore the "Active Protective foundation" it was in the tube. Best coverage, ever! I was devastated when It stopped being on shelves. lol I also liked Revlon foundation in "touch and glow" gosh it had such a good scent, too.
Yes, yes Max Factor 2,000-calorie mascara was the best! Had Little Fibers in it that made your lashes so thick and so , so long! But never ever ever clumped! And never ever smeared! I don't know how they did it ! Why, why did they ever discontinue that formula?? You had to take it off with makeup remover, but it was worth it! I have tried $40 mascaras, and nothing is like it! t j l
I was born in 82, so I was pretty young in the 80s, but I still remember all of these! Some of them have even come back into style, like color changing makeup (unfortunately…) There was a minute there where it seemed every brand was releasing something that turned into “your perfect shade of pink”😭 I still remember getting a set of Love’s Baby Soft for Christmas one year, with all the different variations. There was a lemon one that I loved in particular!
@@cynthiamckenzie9986 retailers had these Clarion computers to help clients choose shades of different items in the Clarion product range. In those days, you were either all cool tone or all warm. Old ads are still up if you Google 🙂
Loves baby soft i had in high school late 70s i had a tee shirt that said loves baby soft. Love brand also had fresh lemon, jasmine and rain. I wore loves rain and a perfume called Babe. There was a song babe out at the same time.
@@lauraswihart4816 yeh! Vermont country store has some old shampoo remember lemon up? With the lemon cap? I think juicy couture smells a little like babe the original juicy perfume. I wear it sometimes
Ah Coco Chanel. I didn't start wearing it until the 2000s as my dad was able to get products from a Chanel factory. It is definitely more mature but it's lovely. I need to get another bottle.
I'm glad I lived in the 1980s.Aged 15 to 24 .With great music ,fashion,makeup and hairstyles.I would like to back to this decade if I could.If there was a time machine.😊.
The 80s had the best fashions, music and hair. I wore Giorgio Beverly Hills perfume, very bold and long lasting. Nowadays most perfumes don't last long at all. Fun decade.
I remember the stories and threats of a possible detentation of nuclear weapons. They refer to it as, The cold war. It didn't happen. I remember our first shopping mall that opened in 1985 created jobs for our community. I was in my 20s and by 1988, I'd had 3 children. Aerobics was the best form of excersize and I also remember how ppl traveled. Racking up debt onto credit cards like there was no tomorrow. I wore shine free makeup from Maybelline, made for oily skin. It was a great product. Another great product was from Avon. The best firming cream I'd ever used. It came with a hand held applicator with raised round and rubbery bumps to massage it into the skin. It was sadly discontinued. It was too far ahead of its time I guess. The 80s was big hair, shoulder pads, and yes, bright neon colors. Everyone wanted spiral curls like Stevie Nick's, and the guys all had spiked hair or mullets. There's so much I miss about it, I'd have to write a book. Mostly, I miss being in my 20s. My children being little, and my dad being alive.
I remember having drills in school and going under the desk. Permission slips for potassium iodine pills and blacked out letters from family in Europe. I remember the yellow ribbons.
Thank you for your report ! You brought back memories and laughs. Like the fake nails with the "perfect thumb nail size" for alot of women looking for that majic size that fit. Like some who tried fitting a size 9 foot into a size 6 shoe ! 😂😄🙂
I changed my skin care as I got older, but sometimes I still cleanse my face with Noxema. It still smells the same, lol. I wore a lot of Charlie perfume in the 80s.
I remember. A Bonne Bell representative came to our elementary school for grooming and hygiene classes for girls starting puberty. Pushed 10-0-6, for breakouts. This was very early 1970's.
As a teenager of the 80’s my favorite makeup item next to blue and purple mascara was my monthly Seventeen magazine where we learned makeup techniques, evaluated our boyfriend and set goals for prom dresses and kept up with Johnny Depp in Hollywood photos of the newest heartthrob. Best decade ever.

I was thinking the same thing. None of my peers discussed Nicole Kidman until she was in Days of Thunder.

These videos are so comforting. I love watching all the vintage clips and photos. I’m 26 so not an 80s child whatsoever. I do love the fashions and grew up with the music though!
This entire video is just nostalgia overload! 🥰🥰🥰 You hit me right in the feels with this one, thank you!! ❤️
Awe thanks happy you liked it
SAME!!
Brooke Shields such a beautiful woman and I loved her style along with the styles of all of the 80's models they were such a mood🎉💃🌞
As a GenX Babe who was a teenager to college student in the 80s, and I worked for Lancome....blue eyeshadow was way more prevalent in the 70s. Now bright pastels, neons, metallics, and jewel tones were very common.
Blues....more often a turquoise, teal, or sapphire.
I still wear Loves Baby Soft. Smells good and reminds me of my youth.
I tried but I think they changed the formula or the inventory was old and the scent changed …but I still have them …couldn’t bear to throw them out lol😂
Where can I find baby soft?
I wish Maybelline would bring back their Kissing Potions roller boll gloss. I still use Bonne Bell Lip Smackers. I have Dr Pepper. I had Loves Baby Soft fragrance also.
Treat Beauty makes big sticks of lip balm that remind me of the big Lip Smackers. I also wish they still made the Kissing Potion lipgloss.
I know I want to try the kissing potion
There is a company that brought back the Kissing Potions, but I don’t know how close it is to the original. They also make the lip balm in the tins from the 80’s.
Try tinte cosmetics! They make reproductions of the original roller boll glosses, i have one in bubblegum flavor.
@@zoeweathers9225 Yep, that was the company I was talking about. I couldn’t remember the name.
Thanks for .this look at the iconic beauty products of the 80’s. I was in my 20’s in the 1980s. My beauty icon was Victoria Principal, plus the super models of the era: Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Christie Brinkley, Paulina Porizkova, Kim Alexis and Claudia Schiffer were among my favorites. Lancôme was my favorite beauty brand. I worked at the fragrance counter at Robinsons and Saks Fifth Ave department stores in the mid 80’s so the fragrances of the 1980s really have stuck with me- in particular, YSL Opium, YSL Paris, Anais Anais by Cacharel, Giorgio Beverly Hills, Ombré Rose by Jean Charles Brosseau, Tea Rose by Perfumers Workshop, Dior’s Poison and Dioressence were the heavy hitting perfumes I remember wearing the most.
"Charlie" with Cindy Crawford as model was huge in the UK and so was "Miss Selfridge" body spray from Selfridges London; also Impulse body sprays and the scented foaming body moisturiser similar to hair products
@yanah.965 Do you remember if Saks sold *Bijan perfume?* I was a poor college kid in the late 80s and some rich donors held a Christmas party for th radio station where I was a dj. In each of the party gift bags was a small bottle of Bijan. I remember the bottle shape, and vaguely remember the perfume. 😊
I remember a good smelling shampoo from the 80's called, 'Gee, your hair smells terrific'.
The 1st time I smelled Paris Hilton 'Heiress' long ago, I kept thinking it smelled like something I'd smelled before. That shampoo is what came to mind
That shampoo really did smell terrific, lol!
How about Revlon's Flex shampoo and conditioner? That smelled great.
Prell Shampoo was still a popular holdover from the 70s - and that, too, smelled amazing.
In my opinion the most iconic fragrances of the 80s were Loulou by Cacherel, Opium by YSL and Obsession by Calvin Klein.
💯👏👏👏 yes! Poison too, but Giorgio was too sweet and Paris was foul, imho!!
💯 Opium and Poison!
I loved Opium back then. Still do honestly.
And Giorgio. Then it was Giorgio Red.
Loves Baby Soft, Lady Stetson, Clinique Elixor, Estee Lauder Knowing and White Linen, Ciara, and Giorgio...
L'ancome make up was fabulous & still is today. 😊 i always wear the mascara love the quality 😊
Loves Baby Soft and Jean Nate!
I still wear them lol and Dana now brought back Soft Jasmine!
I was hoping someone would mention Jean Naté! It was one of those ubiquitous scents …like Love’s Baby Soft and Heaven Scent …all of which could be found for sale in every drug store or discount department store beauty section.
Those 3 fragrances were always on my vanity throughout my teens.
This was amazing!!! I was a kid in the early 80s and a teenager obviously in the later 80s!!! This bought back so many memories!!!! I miss these days and always will!!!!! Wish they would come back!! It’s Christmas time, hey anyone that sees this, look up 80s Christmas commercials, it is such a great delight and such a treat!!! I love it!!!
I was in middle school, high school, and college on the 80s (graduated from high school in 86, from college in 90). I remember all of these products. Loving this series!
We lined our inner eyes with blue liner & wore "Coty Wild Musk." We couldn't live without our electric hot rollers & aqua net hair spray for those "large" hairstyles. Indian Earth bronzer gave us that sun kissed look. Bonne Bell had some beautiful lipstick 💄 colors that are now sadly discontinued. We also wore Gunne Sax dresses & were required to lay down to zip up our Calvin Klein & Dittos Jeans. We wore enormous chandelier & hoop earring styles that we bought at "Contempo Casuals" store. Loved the 80's! Oh yes, and most of us didn't have Cell Phones yet or pc's.
I remember Jessica McClintock Gunne Sax dresses!!
India Earth! Almost forgot about that
I loved that perfume wild Musk by Coty
Scott McClintock (Jessica's son) prom dresses! Huge wedding dresses, butt bows, wrist corsages. Vintage coming into style.
@@jgiard9030Vermont Country Store has it!
Love the 80s. V-neck Shaker knit sweaters over brightly-colored tank tops. Permed my hair to death. Zena jeans. Obsession and Ciara perfume. Fair Isle sweaters and slouchy ankle boots.
I was in my 20s back then and the one thing I really liked and miss today is that the matte shadows were pretty and fun. But, you could also go for a sophisticated look as well. It was so much better then the shiny glitter overload of today. It's like shadow is for 12 yr olds today. Not adult women.
I really liked the makeup and perfumes of the time.
80s was such a great decade. It was like the decade of summer.
I would like to add that women in their 50s and 60s could wear makeup and do themselves up and they looked fabulous. With today's makeup is more harsh and aging. You don't see women over 35 or 40 do much other then moisturizer and do a simple hair because alot of stuff make them look older. At least that is my opinion
@ Diane Lake. I agree 100%
YES!!!
The decade of summer!! Love this. That’s the perfect way to think about it. ❤️
There's tons of brands that make matte eyeshadow palettes or singles. Try Tarte or Morphe.
Such great nostalgia! Miss so many of these products including Salon Selectives and that yummy smell! Thank you, Laura!
They still sell it at Dollar Tree. It has the original scent.
I equate Love's Baby Soft, gel cheek stains, PH changing lipsticks & rollerball lip glosses with the 70s. Same with blue eyeshadow & colored mascaras. The big hair craze of the 80s definitely started in the 70s with Farrah Fawcett. It's funny how certain products have stuck around for decades & which decade you associate them with often depends on when you were a teen/tween. (1978-82 all kind of blurs together fashion wize for me)
Yes- Love's Baby Soft was for sure a '70s thing. Fragrance in the 80's was far more substantial and heavy.
Thank you for this I was born in 77 so I rember the 80s well. Still my favorite decade 💙 Salon selectives apple 🍎 scent brings back memories of 8th grade our school bathroom always was full of the hair spray I miss the original so much
Oh apple scent sounds amazing
They still sell it at Dollar Tree. Still original scent.
@@summerrose4286 Thanks I will have to check it put our Big Lots sold if a few years back but I haven't been able to find it
Oh my gosh I remember that salon selectives hair spray too lol! I was a preteen and teen in the 80’s
@@rachellemini8632 it was the best! Sky high bangs abd banana clips and spiral perms every girl had a spritz bottle of salon selective and sun ripened raspberry from bath n body works brings back memories 😛❤

Thank You For Reflections on this most Fun 💥 Era. Laura Jane 💖♥️💛🧡💜💚💙💄
I loved Bonnie Bell products as a 80s teen ❤
Watch Addicted to Love video by Robert Palmer for the arguably most iconic 80s makeup look.
OMG!!!! I HAD to watch this vid when I saw Kissing Koolers in the thumbnail!😃 I was in middle school from 89-92 and they are a MAJOR blast of nostalgia. I owned many, but remember Cherry Cola being my favorite flavor🍒🥤
Also, I STILL have my Caboodle from eighth grade and use it to store my beauty samples😅
ETA: Love's Baby Soft was my first perfume! I now use it as a 'round the house fragrance, lol.
Thanks for the memories. I was a teen in the 80s. I wore Lace by Yardley and Oscar de la Renta's Ruffles perfume. I remember using Sun In to lighten my hair and Do Do Do hair gel in pink. Great video. Thank you for all the hard work.
I loved Lace perfume!
Thanks for watching
Anyone remember Dippidy-do hair gel in the little glass jar? Sorry if the spelling is off on that.🤣 Big hair and space bangs were both so popular back then.
Yes, sun in
Later eighties, but also Guess jeans, Palmettos, Jams, Spuds Mackenzie and SWatch (and George Michael!) Early eighties, the BEST play makeup and #1 toy of the year was Fresh ‘N’ Fancy. I would love to see a video on Fresh ‘N’ Fancy!!!
I remember wanting a Laura Ashley dress made from white taffeta with a giant peach satin bow on the dropped waist. 😂
💗💗💗💗 wow so cool remembering all these Awsome products and packaging. I loved the peel off nail polish💗💗 Anyone remember LA Gear? Im hoping and excited for a 90' video!! Thx Laura 💗
Was LA Gear the hair products?
I couldn’t have describe the 80’s better. I came of age from 80-89 and partook in these trends. Covergirl was my “ride or die” cosmetic. I miss the quality & selection Covergirl use to have. BRAVO 👏🏼 for creating this video. ✌🏻💖💄
Cover Girl was crap!
I don’t remember the 80s wasn’t alive yet but my mom tells me about the hair and makeup trends back then and it always seemed like such a fun time..
OMG what a throwback. I was obsessed with Lip Smackers and Kissing Coolers! A few more I remember: Studio Line by L'Oreal, Exclamation perfume, Fido Dido hair gel (for the boys) :-P
Geometric patterns. Asymmetrical haircuts( ala Cindy Lopper,Madonna ), Sebastian Shaper Hairspray, bright strong blush and strong designer fragrances! 😁
This was so much fun! I graduated from HS in 1986. A great look back. ☺️
i miss Revlon Flex shampoo and conditioner !! my mother and i would use this & i would love to smell it again just to remind me of her. She was so glamorous and beautiful with her flowing golden hair.
I loved Loves Baby Soft perfume. I always like the powdery smell and have always picked a scent closest to Loves Baby Soft.
same
My mom used and still uses chanel coco. It smells really good in my opinion!
Another 1982 high school graduate here. I had a Dr Pepper lip smacker, and a bubble gum Maybelline lip gloss roller. Dynasty was a popular show, and I loved the scent Forever Krystal inspired by the Linda Evans character. The lotion had a shimmer, like crystals! White Diamonds was another favorite in college. That one made by Elizabeth Taylor.
I was in my 20s in the 80s. I sold cosmetics for several years at the mall and applied makeup during consultations. I had experience with both high end and drugstore brands of that day. I really miss Geminesse makeup particularly their powder eyeshadow, excellent quality, creamy formula, way ahead of their time. I will say that drugstore cosmetics available today are much better quality than they were back then! Even better than most high end products of the 80s. We thought we were so edgy and rebellious back then with our looks! 😂 Mall bangs, the higher the better and perms were a big thing too. Oh! And the shoulder pads! The broader the better!
I was in my teens in the 80s. First love. First make-up and perfumes. First job with my own money to spend!
I used Love's Baby Soft and Bonne Bell lip products before getting to my late teens and wearing Revlon Intimate Musk. I started using Covergirl makeup, and wore only bright blue eyeliner and blue mascara for a couple of years.
I used Prell shampoo and Mink hairspray. My hairstyle was achieved with a curling iron and hairspray every morning. It took me 30-45 minutes to do my hair each time.
I switched to Rave in the 90s when I wanted "b*tch flip" bangs.
Thanks for this nostalgic trip. I enjoyed it very much.
loves and mink! ❤
I loved the 80's. Miss them! Thank you Laura 💗
This video took me down memory lane, many sweet memories!!! I was a teenager from the eighties and can remember everything that I did. I named my only child and daughter Alexis, after my favorite character from the eighties tv soap, 'Dynasty'. I had the biggest crush on Don Johnson from Miami Vice. I'm still stuck in the eighties and don't regret it. ❤️
Only Laura could do the 80’s justice like this. Wow, I loved loved loved this time in my life. Thank you, Laura. My eyes nearly teared up watching this.
This might be more 70,s than 80,s but who else remembers Rubiglo, the India Earth multi purpose make up in the terra cotta pot? It looked awful on me with my fair coloring but I haaad to have it! PS I'm class of 84😊
Remember! It's still available...
I remember! I’m 63!
Yes! I loved that stuff! Rubiglo is out of business but indian earth is still in production. I didn't know it was available in different colors...I think the rubiglo was just one...
YESSS!!
Yes! I was born in 80’ but I totally remember it on vanities in my childhood. Great description! You unlocked a memory. ❤
Thanks for the memories, which is amazing that I actually remember these products after my youth of inhaling my mothers AQUA NET HAIR SPRAY killing my brain cells and the OZONE LAYER lol 😂 😅
Hahaha! I bought the extra super hold in the gray can. I called it AquaRock!
Yeah, I was surprised she missed the aquanet hairspray, that stuff is killer, lol.
As a kid in the 80's I can remember the Calvin Klein perfume commercials, and all the kid like necklace makeup. Where has the time gone 🤦🤦😂😂 Obsession will stay on you all day. Love it! Caboodles we're so popular. 😂 This entire video was so nostalgic. Thank you 😊
53 here and ahhhhh walk a great walk down memory lane ❤
Yes! I had salon selectives, kissing potion, grape Bonne bell lipsmacker, wella balsam, finesse for hair, sunsilk for hair, Maybelline moisture whip foundation, ponds light moisturizer
Obsession by Calvin Klein was huge! It smell and popularity. And yes, remember burning my face with Sea Breeze. 😱
i loved sea breeze
Brings back so many memories… graduated high school in 84… east era for careful fun and great colours. I miss the big hair 😅
For Christmas one year I got peppermint candy cane kissing coolers lip balm. It was awesome wish they still made it
Remember the rock hard eyeliner in the red wood pencil form? All the girls had it and would be in the bathroom of the club heating it up with a lighter to soften it... I still use pan stick for under eye concealer... only available online now.... Used to put a drop of vitamin E on the stick to enrich it when my skin felt dry.
Lol, yup!
I wear Coco channel even now. I remember being a kid when it came out but now days I keep it for special occasions or dinners out. It's to my mind a fantastic winter perfume. It's very boozy.
I love the mood changing lipstick
I know I want one
The decade I was born. I remember mom loved Nexxus and Vavoom hair products way up to the 90’s
I used to love Max Factor in the 80s. Even though it's an old brand. I wasn't a big fan of drugstore makeup in those times because it wasn't that good but MF always gave good results.
I miss their mascara. It was great!
I bought Max Factor make-up at the drugstore in the 80's and early 90's....
They knew how to do blush and foundation. I wore the "Active Protective foundation" it was in the tube. Best coverage, ever! I was devastated when It stopped being on shelves. lol I also liked Revlon foundation in "touch and glow" gosh it had such a good scent, too.
Yes, yes Max Factor 2,000-calorie mascara was the best! Had Little Fibers in it that made your lashes so thick and so , so long! But never ever ever clumped! And never ever smeared! I don't know how they did it ! Why, why did they ever discontinue that formula?? You had to take it off with makeup remover, but it was worth it! I have tried $40 mascaras, and nothing is like it! t j l
Sorry my phone messed up at the end of my comment.
Love how you always dive into such details. Thanks for taking me back to my teens! Great video, always look forward to when you post!😊
I recently purchased Loves Baby Soft….so nostalgic and took me right back to high school!
Great video! As a teen in the 1980s, I remember most of these products and the commercials. Greatest decade ever!
I was born in 82, so I was pretty young in the 80s, but I still remember all of these! Some of them have even come back into style, like color changing makeup (unfortunately…) There was a minute there where it seemed every brand was releasing something that turned into “your perfect shade of pink”😭
I still remember getting a set of Love’s Baby Soft for Christmas one year, with all the different variations. There was a lemon one that I loved in particular!
LOVE THIS VIDEO😍Does anyone else remember Coty Wild Musk & CWM Patchouli Blend? Final Net? The Clarion computer?!!!?
I used to wear the musk. I also loved it when my ex husband would wear the musk aftershave!
What was the Clarion computer? Vaguely rings a bell
@@cynthiamckenzie9986 retailers had these Clarion computers to help clients choose shades of different items in the Clarion product range. In those days, you were either all cool tone or all warm. Old ads are still up if you Google 🙂
I remember all of these products. This video took me back to my childhood and teen years. ❤
So happy you liked it
Loves baby soft i had in high school late 70s i had a tee shirt that said loves baby soft. Love brand also had fresh lemon, jasmine and rain. I wore loves rain and a perfume called Babe. There was a song babe out at the same time.
I found Loves fresh lemon & still have it from 4 years ago. I remember Babe too- it was nice🎄
@@lauraswihart4816 yeh! Vermont country store has some old shampoo remember lemon up? With the lemon cap? I think juicy couture smells a little like babe the original juicy perfume. I wear it sometimes
i bought vintage Babe stuff to get the bracelet and anklet
@@searchindex3438 I'd like to see them!💗
I'm 54 years old and have been using Noxema since the 70's. I never get tired of it, especially the smell! Also Coty's translucent powder!
One of my favorite decades 😊
Me too
Ah Coco Chanel. I didn't start wearing it until the 2000s as my dad was able to get products from a Chanel factory. It is definitely more mature but it's lovely. I need to get another bottle.
I'm glad I lived in the 1980s.Aged 15 to 24 .With great music ,fashion,makeup and hairstyles.I would like to back to this decade if I could.If there was a time machine.😊.
If I were to define the 80s with just ONE product that would be AQUA NET. 'Nough said. 😎🤟😉😁
Wonderful video Laura! I still use Seabreeze every morning. People always compliment how nice my skin looks. I enjoy the scent tho…it wakes me up! 😂
Nicole Kidman was more of the 1990s than the 80s. Meg Ryan was the big actress that everyone talked about in the 80s as well as Melanie Griffith.
The 80s had the best fashions, music and hair. I wore Giorgio Beverly Hills perfume, very bold and long lasting. Nowadays most perfumes don't last long at all. Fun decade.
I remember the stories and threats of a possible detentation of nuclear weapons. They refer to it as, The cold war. It didn't happen. I remember our first shopping mall that opened in 1985 created jobs for our community. I was in my 20s and by 1988, I'd had 3 children. Aerobics was the best form of excersize and I also remember how ppl traveled. Racking up debt onto credit cards like there was no tomorrow. I wore shine free makeup from Maybelline, made for oily skin. It was a great product. Another great product was from Avon. The best firming cream I'd ever used. It came with a hand held applicator with raised round and rubbery bumps to massage it into the skin. It was sadly discontinued. It was too far ahead of its time I guess. The 80s was big hair, shoulder pads, and yes, bright neon colors. Everyone wanted spiral curls like Stevie Nick's, and the guys all had spiked hair or mullets. There's so much I miss about it, I'd have to write a book. Mostly, I miss being in my 20s. My children being little, and my dad being alive.
I remember having drills in school and going under the desk. Permission slips for potassium iodine pills and blacked out letters from family in Europe. I remember the yellow ribbons.
I just love your videos, 80's was my era, so it's nice to reminisce back in time when life for me was simple and free.💋
Thank you for your report ! You brought back memories and laughs.
Like the fake nails with the "perfect thumb nail size" for alot of women looking for that majic size that fit.
Like some who tried fitting a size 9 foot into a size 6 shoe ! 😂😄🙂
I changed my skin care as I got older, but sometimes I still cleanse my face with Noxema. It still smells the same, lol.
I wore a lot of Charlie perfume in the 80s.
LOL! My sister had Charlie perfume and my mom absolutely hated the smell of it.
I still have my Clairol Benders. I got them.for my birthday in 8th grade in 1987.
I'm wondering why I never heard of or tried these. I was a hot roller fiend.
Anything Bonnie Bell started in 1970’s
I remember. A Bonne Bell representative came to our elementary school for grooming and hygiene classes for girls starting puberty. Pushed 10-0-6, for breakouts. This was very early 1970's.
That loves baby soft commercial with the girl and the sucker was the CREEPIEST thing I have ever seen🤮
Absolutely!
This video made me go listen to Bon Jovi and Heart in a blink of an eye
