Launched: 1977. Creator: Jane and Jean Ford

A cheeky little number this, since it was originally created to colour the nipples of an exotic dancer. More than 30 years on, the original and best lip and cheek stain can be used to create pretty flushes and subtle pouts, with minimum fuss. You only need the tiniest amount, so it lasts forever. It has excellent staying power, and is perfect for a lighter summer look. The rose-petal scent is also delightful (£22.50 from Boots nationwide).
