L’Homme fidèle (2018)
There are several beauty products in Eve’s bedroom.
First from the left, a bottle by Acqua di Parma. The front label can’t be seen, so it’s impossible to tell what fragrance it is.
The skincare includes Avène thermal spring water spray and SVR Hydraliane Essence priming replumping hydrating concentrate.
Chanel Chance doesn’t come as a surprise, since Lily Rose Depp is currently one of the most popular testimonials of the French brand. This creation by Jacques Polge was launched in 2003.
Another skincare product is Avène gentle purifying scrub.
Now let’s talk about make-up. Next to the Acqua di Parma perfume there are two bottles of Mavala nail polish.
Right in front of them there’s a tube of Chanel Rouge Coco lipgloss.
Last, there are Chanel nail polish and Rouge Coco lipstick on the far right side of the table.
Little Children (2006)
When Sara (Kate Winslet) and Brad (Patrick Wilson) first meet at the local swimming pool, she asks him to apply sunscreen on her back. The product he uses is Alba Botanica Hawaiian sunscreen with aloe vera.
Pump Up the Volume (1990)
There’s a pump bottle of Soft Sense skin lotion on Paige’s vanity.
Sierra Burgess Is a Loser (2018)
In Sierra’s bathroom there are Lily of the Desert 99% aloe gelly and two Nair products – the hair remover lotion with aloe and lanolin and Sprays Away hair remover.
Thanks to Emily for the ids.
La stanza del vescovo (1977)
There are several bottles on the vanity in Charlotte’s bedroom, among which two Hermès perfumes.
One is on the left of the wooden table watch: it’s Equipage, the first masculine perfume released by the French fashion house. Created by Guy Robert, it was launched in 1970.
The other is on the right side of the dresser: it’s Calèche, another creation by Robert, launched in 1961.
If you’ve seen the film, or read the Piero Chiara novel of the same title, you’ll know there’s a problem with both of these perfumes: the story is set in the Lago Maggiore area in 1946, so the Hermès perfumes (launched decades later) are historically inaccurate. I understand why the prop masters chose them, though: they were popular when the film was made and their bottles are beautiful.
On the vanity there’s also a tin can of Borotalco Roberts talcum powder.
¡Átame! (1989)
When Ricky (Antonio Banderas) breaks into Marina’s apartment, he follows her around. When they’re in the bathroom, he comments it looks like a pharmacy. But the woman doesn’t keep medicines only in there: there’s also a bottle of Chanel Coco bath gel.
Eight years later, this bath gel would appear in Carne trémula.
Performance (1970)
Turner (Mick Jagger) is a former rock star who lives in London’s Notting Hill with two women, Pherber (Anita Pallenberg) and Lucy (Michèle Breton). The famous scene where they’re taking a bath in the same tub features interesting products.
First of all, there’s a bottle of Hermès Calèche, created in 1961 by Guy Robert.
On the marble shelf by the tub there’s also a flacon montre of Guerlain Vol de Nuit (see the teal disk).
On the same shelf, on the right, there’s the unmistakable blue bottle of a bubble bath popular in the 1960s/1970s – L’Oreal Obao, the “bain bleu moussant”.
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
There’s a tin bottle of Avon Timeless perfumed talc in Alex’s bathroom. The graphics on the packaging are the ones seen on the cardboard talc shaker above.
National Lampoon’s European Vacation (1985)
In the second movie of the original trilogy, the Griswolds win a trip to Europe. Before leaving for London, Clark takes a video of his wife Ellen (Beverly D’Angelo) doing a dancing routine. The scene is set in their bathroom, so some beauty products and toiletries can be seen.
On the marble counter behind Ellen there’s a pump tube of Colgate toothpaste.
There’s also a bottle of Oil of Olay moisturizer.
From another angle, we can see a bottle of Johnson and Johnson’s baby powder.
Next to it, there’s a big jar of Nivea creme.
