Hollywood E04 (Screen Tests)

hollywood_e04_bornunicorn (2)

Rock Hudson (Jake Picking) is another actor who’s getting ready to audition for a role in the upcoming film Peg. On his dressing table there are several beauty items: some of them are by Bésame Cosmetics product, but there are vintage pieces too.

There are a long-hair finishing powder brush and a lipstick by Bésame.

The large pink tin with white cap is Albolene cleansing cream. The picture above refers to the unscented version. I couldn’t find any visual evidence that the scented version is the pink one, but it could be a good guess, since this product still comes in scented and unscented versions.

besamerougebrush_bornunicornAlly Mayfair-Richards (Sarah Paulson) has gone through hell to save herself and her son from the white suprematist craze gripping U.S.A. Now she’s a senator, but her project to assert women’s power is not over. In the very last scene of the episode she’s getting ready to go out: the gold brush she uses to retouch her make-up is the rouge brush by Bésame Cosmetics.

Thanks to my friend Jennifer for the id.

Joan Crawford (Jessica Lange) is on the set of Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte by Robert Aldrich: her make-up stylist is showing her some false eyelashes. Bésame Cosmetics mascara brush set – which includes a mascara and a liner brush – can be seen.

The lipstick on her dressing table is Dusty Rose by Bésame Cosmetics, a natural pink shade inspired to a 1969 shade.
