Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream
Five ingredients, on sale since 1991, and nobody has bothered to copy it because there is nothing to copy. The formula is public, the ingredients are in any wholesaler's catalogue, and it still has no competitor. Undupable does not always mean protected. Sometimes it means nobody could be bothered to try, and the original just kept selling.

- Key ingredients
