A Single Man (2009)
While Charlotte (Julianne Moore) is applying eye-liner, we can get a glimpse of her dressing table.
There are two versions of Estee Lauder Youth Dew, the perfume created by Josephine Catapano in 1953: the aqua blue spray bottle contains the eau de parfum, while the glass bottle contains the cologne.


The other three products are from Tom Ford x Estee Lauder Azurée Soleil collection, launched in 2006: they are the Face Glow (in the tall bottle with fluted stopper), the Sunbronzer mirror compact and the Cheek Glow stick.
Carne trémula (1997)
Clara (Angela Molina) is finally leaving her abusive husband Sancho, so she’s quickly packing some toiletries. In her bathroom there are many beauty products.
On the glass shelf there are two Shiseido Benefiance products – a toner and a cleansing milk.
There’s also L’Oreal Elnett Satin hairspray, which has an important function in this scene.
In classic Almodóvar style, Chanel products make their appearance. In this case, there are a compact and a bottle of bi-phase make-up remover (or toner). There’s also a black box with gold band I haven’t been able to identify. It may be related to No. 5, but I have no idea what it can be.

Under the glass shelf there’s a cardboard bottle of Ausonia talc.

Next to the Chanel make-up remover there’s Guerlain Champs Elysées in a beautiful gold bottle designed by Robert Granai. The perfume, created by Jacques and Jean-Paul Guerlain, was launched in 1996.

But Champs Elysées is not the only Guerlain item in Clara’s bathroom. On the top glass shelf there’s a round gold box containing Météorites face powder pearls.
The Edge of Seventeen (2016)

There are a MAC lipstick and IT Cosmetics CC+ cream by the washbasin in Nadine’s bathroom.
Thanks to Emily in the comments for the IT Cosmetics id.
Copycat (1995)
When agents M. J. Monahan and Reuben Goetz pay a visit to doctor Helen Hudson, the woman they’re protecting, we can get a look at her busy dressing table.
The first thing that has caught my attention is the perfume on the left – the 1980s classic Valentino. Created by Pierre Dinand and first launched in 1979, is a floral powerhouse. I still remember when my mother wore it: I was in heaven because it smelled amazing on her.
On the bottom left there’s Elizabeth Arden Lip Spa lipstick.


When the camera pans to M. J. (Holly Hunter), we can also see an Annick Goutal perfume (behind the blue box with red tassel) and a factice of Guerlain Shalimar in the background.
Generation Wealth (2018)

Hedge-fund executive Suzanne Murphy is retouching her make-up: in doing so, she applies Stila Lip Glaze gloss in a peachy pink shade.
Ocean’s Eight (2018)

Debbie (Sandra Bullock) uses Dior DiorShow mascara.
Nappily Ever After (2018)

The compact Violet (Sanaa Lathan) uses to apply make-up in the morning is Make Up For Ever Duo Mat powder foundation.
Thanks to my friend Jennifer for the id.
Je vous salue, Marie (1985)
Marie (Myriem Roussel) stops at a Lancôme counter to check some cosmetics. She wants to try some lipsticks: the ones on the right are standard testers, while the ones on the left look more interesting.

I personally have no memory of Lancôme stylo lipsticks, but I’ve found some evidence of their existence. The first (bad quality) picture shows the exact lipstick seen in the film, with the brown/marroon tube. It was called Stylo à Levres and was launched in the late 1970s.
Skate Kitchen (2018)



When Camille (Rachelle Vinberg) and her girlfriends go to a party, Kabrina (Kabrina Adams) dolls her up by applying a MAC lipstick in a vibrant purple shade, which I think is Heroine.
