What Women Want (2000)

30 Mar 2017 Born Unicorn Leave a comment

The protagonist’s ex-wife, Gigi (Lauren Holly) loves perfumes and beauty products: her busy dressing table proves it.

There are Clinique Dramatically Different moisturizing lotion, Bulgari Eau Parfumée au The Vert cologne and body lotion, and a perfume by Maître Parfumeur et Gantier.

In another screencap, a bottle of Diorissimo (or Diorella) by Christian Dior and a perfume by Annick Goutal (even in this case, impossible to tell which one) can be seen.

Among her make-up items, there’s a MAC lipstick.

The Love Witch (2016)

When Trish pays Elaine a visit but the witch is not home, she sits at her vanity table and uses some of her make-up products. Among them, there are a couple of Baked blushes by Milani.

The lipsticks on Elaine’s dresser are Color Riche by L’Oreal, mostly in bright colours, but there’s a frosty nude, too.

Postcards from the Edge (1990)

5 Jan 2017 Born Unicorn Leave a comment

When Doris Mann (Shirley MacLaine) has a car accident and is hospitalized, her daughter Suzanne (Meryl Streep) puts on her make-up. The peach lipstick she uses is by Revlon and matches her mother’s nail polish.

The compact Doris uses while putting on some black eye pencil is by Revlon again. It’s made of black plastic with square edges; originally used for the Love Pat pressed powder, it’s now used for the Touch and Glow moisturizing powder. Judging from the three gold lines on the eye pencil, I think it’s another Revlon product.

Stepmom (1998)

Isabel Kelly (Julia Roberts) puts on some lipstick while driving Anna and Ben to their mother’s house.

The slick metal tube is Clinique Almost lipstick in the famous shade Black Honey, leaving a lovely sheen on lips.

She lets Anna (Jena Malone) wear it: the colour is subtle and natural, appropriate even on a young girl.

There are three Oribe products on the Queen’s dressing table – Maximista thickening spray, Shine Light Reflecting spray and Rough Luxury Soft molding paste.

The tall bottles are a body moisturiser and a lotion (or an oil) by Dr. Hauschka.

Last but not least, there’s a NARS lipgloss in front of the hair pomade jar.

Worried About the Boy (2010)

14 Oct 2016 Born Unicorn Leave a comment

In the opening scene, Boy George (Douglas Booth) is putting on a red lipstick, which happens to be by Clarins. Unfortunately, the whole tube is not visible, so it’s hard to tell if it’s a vintage piece.
