If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. When it comes to beauty, it couldn’t be more apt. There are certain products in our beauty wardrobes that withstand the test of time because, quite simply, what they do, they do it well – and then some. From tried-and-trusted skincare to first-class make-up, these 10 iconic beauty products deserve their hero status.

La Mer The Moisturising Soft Cream

La Mer’s Miracle Broth™ – a powerful blend of sea kelp, calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and more – works to firm skin, reduce lines and wrinkles, and make pores less visible. It’s infused into every one of their products but this is a perennial favourite.
