7 "Outdated" Beauty Products That Are Officially Making a Comeback in 2024

Caudalie's Detox Mask was a beauty blogger favorite back in the day, and it's no wonder that it's made a comeback via TikTok. It works impressively fast, absorbing oil and highlighting exactly where your pores need some extra TLC. 

This cult moisturizer has made countless comebacks over the years. Any makeup artist will tell you that it's a staple in their kit—perfect for nourishing and priming skin before foundation application.

The original Clinique Black Honey launched in 1971, and in the decades since then, it's maintained a loyal following of devotees. Thanks to its ability to subtly enhance lips and suit all skin tones, it's recently undergone a resurgence in popularity, inspiring the creation of a softer shade, Pink Honey. 

Urban Decay's Moondust eye shadows were first launch in 2013 but took 10 years to gain viral status. Described as a "light champagne gold with silver sparkle," Space Cowboy is the perfect neutral shimmer for an easy party look.

Used in salons by professional hairstylists for decades, Olaplex No. 3 is the gold standard of reparative hair treatments. It works by rebuilding broken bonds in hair damaged by excessive heat styling and coloring. I remember No. 3 being impossible to get a hold of when it first launched to consumers, and thanks to the brand's constant virality on TikTok, it's a similar story in 2024.

It's no surprise that this iconic product has made a comeback given that lip oils are a key product in any clean girl makeup look. Glossy and nourishing but not sticky, Clarins's Lip Comfort Oils have been a staple in my makeup bag since they last trended in 2017. 

When it first launched in 2005, "skin barrier" was certainly not the buzzword it is now, but La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Baume B5 quickly became one of the cult skincare products that bloggers picked up in their French pharmacy hauls. Now, the skin barrier is a major trend, and this product is right at the heart of it.

This cream is equal parts cleansing and nourishing, featuring aloe vera and parsley-seed extract that leave skin feeling smoother and brighter.

While La Roche-Posay is currently most known for its Cicaplast range, this face mist is not to be overlooked. Serozinc was a staple within acne-focused skincare routines of 2017, and in my opinion, it deserves the same hype in 2024. It utilizes zinc, an anti-inflammatory, to reduce the swelling and redness of breakouts.

Another beauty blogger staple, Antipodes' Aura Manuka Honey Mask is still one of my all-time favorite face masks. It's perfect for skin that's experiencing acne breakouts while also contending with dryness and sensitivity—the manuka honey soothes and calms skin.

Cleansing balms have trended big time over the past few years, but let's not forget that Eve Lom's Cleanser was the original one. Thick, nourishing, and gently exfoliating, this is the ultimate treat for skin.

Seeing as multitasking skincare products are in, I'm surprised that Clarins's Beauty Flash Balm hasn't already made a comeback. Part mask, part moisturizer, and part primer, it smooths, nourishes, and gives skin a radiant glow.

Once a holy grail because of its lightweight and easily layered formula in an era when natural-looking makeup reigns supreme, Nars's Sheer Glow really is the perfect base for a low-key makeup look. 

Dior's lip products are always popular, but I'm ready and waiting for this color-enhancing lip balm to trend once again. Much like Clinique's Black Honey, it adapts to and enhances your natural lip color.

Even after a decade, I've yet to find an overnight hydration treatment that works as well as this one. As a student, it was my go-to hangover mask because it would instantly restore brightness and moisture to my dehydrated skin, even after a late night.

Contouring probably isn't top priority in your daily makeup routine in 2024, but that doesn't mean there isn't a place in your makeup bag for Kevyn Aucoin's Sculpting Powder. If you're after something to gently sculpt and define your features without looking orange or feeling heavy, this is it.

Oskia's Renaissance Cleansing Gel was a holy-grail product 10 years ago, and its transformative gel-to-balm-to-milk texture will be right up your street if you like using gentle products to remove your makeup and cleanse skin.

Korean beauty products are always trending, and for good reason—they're packed with effective skincare ingredients and are almost aways focused on giving skin a glass-glow finish. If that's what you're after, then you'll love this weightless BB cream, which subtly tints skin while delivering powerful hydration.

Not that these ever really went out of style, but they did have a moment for a while. I expect them to come back in full force—the flavors are just so good and it leaves your lips satisfyingly soft.
