Test: guess the name of popular Soviet cosmetics

Almost everyone has heard of the “Red Moscow” perfume and the “Ballet” cream. But do you know of other cosmetic brands and products that were in demand in Soviet times? Let’s check!

It was often customary in the Soviet Union to give the same names to all cosmetic products produced in the same factory. This was done in order to help women determine what kind of pot they buy and what kind of scent it might have. At that time, they saved money on production, for example, perfumes, soaps and powders smelled the same – which, in principle, is extremely convenient for maintaining a lasting aroma.

Despite the wide range, some cosmetic names have become strongly associated with certain products: which stick better to the skin or give a longer lasting effect. Let’s try to remember these Soviet bestsellers!
