As a diehard devotee of the TV comedy "Arrested Development," I distinctly remember when I heard it was getting cancelled. It was a dark, dark day.
OK, so yes, I realize I'm being a bit melodramatic here. But the point is, I had a semi-obsession with this show and I was sad to see it go. And I wasn't alone; over the years "Arrested Development" has gathered a massive cult following so powerful that the show is coming back on air for a new season this spring. "Arrested" fans everywhere, rejoice!
And hilarious TV series aren't the only things that have cult followings. Certain beauty products practically have their own fan clubs, too. Sure, there's plenty of stuff out there that people like, but we're talking about the rare group of products that people borderline obsess over: cult classics.
So we've rounded up the most beloved products -- the ones with fans so devoted that news of their discontinuation would inspire rallies and protests to bring 'em back. Essentially, these are the "Arrested Development" of beauty products. Which one would you be nowhere without?

Smith's Rosebud Salve
If you had a time machine and went back to the year 1893, you could still get your hands on Smith's Rosebud Salve � it's been around that long. People love its rosy scent, and it moisturizes and soothes everything from your lips to your elbows.

Essie in Ballet Slippers
This classic shade of pale pink is the official nail polish of brides everywhere. But single girls love it, too � probably because it's one of those very rare, goes-with-everything and looks-good-on-everyone colors.

Nars Orgasm Blush
With a name like "Orgasm," you know it's gotta be good. Out of all the Nars blush shades, Orgasm is by far the most popular. The universally flattering peachy hue gives the effect of a, uh, flushed "afterglow."

Urban Decay Naked Palette
Urban Decay's Naked Palette is jam-packed with 12 neutral eyeshadow shades that look amazing on everybody. So it's not surprising that when Urban Decay came out with the "Naked Palette 2" last year, they sold out instantly. You would have thought they were Justin Bieber tickets.
