No. 9: Calvin Klein CK One Perfume
A perfume that women and men could use? The concept felt revolutionary in 1994. And this fragrance earned extra credit for its ads, which featured a too-cool-for-school Kate Moss.

No. 8: Herbal Essences Shampoo
Sure, this was a solid, pleasant-smelling perfume, but it's forever burned into our memories thanks to the innuendo-laced commercials that made us want to flee anytime we watched TV with our parents.

No. 7: Bioré Pore Strips
No sleepover was complete without meticulously applying one of these babies, mercilessly ripping it off and diligently scrutinizing the two or three blackheads that you removed with half of your nose hairs. So, so satisfying.

No. 6: Sun-In Spray
With chunky highlights and frosted tips dominating the late-1990s, we all wanted a piece of the action, and Sun-In provided a salon-free solution that could be achieved on the earnings of your summer job (plus a few hours spent laying by the pool). Never mind that it meant that half of the class showed up on the first day of school with orange- and copper-streaked tresses.

No. 5: Lip Smackers
Though the tasty lip-gloss line launched in the '70s, it reached peak ubiquity in the '90s, with funky flavors like bubble gum, Coca-Cola and the most delicious of them all, Dr. Pepper.
