13 Beauty Brands Your Great-Grandmother Loved and You Should, Too

One of the best parts about being a little girl is sitting at your mother's vanity and staring at all the pretty products: perfume, powder puffs, and creams all encased in gorgeous jars. Well, get ready for your daily dose of nostalgia, because these iconic beauty brands were likely favorites of your great-great-grandmother (some are over 200 years old)! The best part about this history lesson is that you can still shop the originals today. Sure, they might look a little different on the outside, but inside they're still the same cult formulas our matriarchs adored.
