Before, I introduce you to some of the most paramount beauty creations of today; I would like to take you through a trip down beauty memory lane. After all, it’s because of these beautiful innovations that we are soaking in anti-bacterial soap and cellulite-reducing lotion today.

Although the type, reason and use of cosmetics differ between cultures and time periods in history, there’s no denying that beauty practices have always played a big role in society.

For those of you who despise the pungent smell of body odor, you better thank your early ancestors for caring about their personal scent. There is no way to document the first use of soap but it is quite possible that it could have been during prehistoric times.

However, the first tangible evidence of soap making is found in ancient Rome. Pliny, the Roman historian, described soap being made from goat's tallow and caustic zed wood ashes. He also wrote of common salt being added to make the soap hard. One thing is for sure, nice smell has always been in style. As early as 10,000 B.C., men and women used scented oils and ointments to clean and soften their skin and mask the body of odor.

Next in line of the THANK GOODNESS YOU WERE INVENTED list is the hair brush. The desire to achieve tangle-free hair is nothing new. While the earliest evidence of brushes were found in cave paintings more than 2 million years ago and used to apply pigment to cave walls, brushes usefulness for grooming caught on quickly. In 1898, Ms. Lyda D. Newman patented the first hairbrush with synthetic bristles.

Raise your hands if you’re SURE that you can confidently raise your arms without offending everything and everyone around you. Chances are if those arms are up in the air right now, you are wearing deodorant. If you are, let me be the first to say, thank you! Now, it’s time to express gratitude to the architect who built this wonderful sweet smell contraption of success.

Deodorant as we know it today started with the original formulation for Mum deodorant that was invented in 1888, by an unknown inventor from Philadelphia. Generally recognized as being the first ever product to prevent odor, the inventor promptly trademarked his invention and distributed it through his nurse under the name of "Mum."

In the late 1940s, Helen Barnett Diserens joined the Mum production team. A suggestion by a colleague inspired Helen to develop an underarm deodorant based on the same principle as a newfangled invention called the 'ball point' pen. This new type of deodorant applicator was tested in the United States in 1952, and marketed under the name of Ban Roll-On. The first anti-perspirant aerosol deodorant was launched in 1965.

What can take a dull face and make it blossom, shave years off a person’s appearance and transform a person’s entire look from classy business to glamour goddess in a matter of seconds? You guessed it, almighty marvelous makeup! The earliest historical record of makeup comes from the 1st Dynasty of Egypt (c. 3100-2907 B.C.).

Since then, archaeologists continued to find evidence of makeup throughout time. From early Romans darkening their eyelashes and eyelids, to the Italian Renaissance use of lead to lighten the face, there’s no denying the significant role makeup has played throughout history.

Beauty products have a come a long way throughout the years. While it’s important to give gratitude to our forefathers of beauty, it’s equally important to praise the modern-day beauty geniuses who continue to give us improve ways to beautify our lives.
