The Glass House (2001)

The cabinet in Ruby’s bathroom is pretty busy.

On the left there’s a box of Pond’s clear pore strips (the packaging in the film is older than the one in the picture above).

There’s also Pond’s deep pore foaming cleanser from the Clear Solutions line.

Her fragrance is not surprising at all – it’s Calvin Klein CK One. Created by Alberto Morillas and Harry Fremont and launched in 1994, this citrus aromatic scent became the symbol of a decade but also set a standard for a new type of fragrances.

The two bottles on the far right look like lip glosses but they are actually fragrances from the Bottled Emotion line by Bonne Bell. The scents are Lucky (blue bottle) and Shy (clear bottle).

The Glass House (2001)

Social worker Nancy Ryan (Kathy Baker) visits the Glasses in their house to check if it’s a suitable place for two teenagers, Ruby and her brother Rhett, to live in. She opens the cabinet in Erin Glass’ bathroom and we can see some interesting products in it.

On the top shelf there are three bottles by Peter Thomas Roth. The blue one is the pre-treatment exfoliating cleanser; the pale blue and the pale pink bottles could contain another cleanser or/and a toning lotion.

Another product by the same brand can be seen on the bottom shelf, in a white jar with black lettering. Impossible to know exactly what it is because this packaging has been used for different products.

Earlier in the movie, the cabinet reveals a different story: the first time Erin (who’s a doctor) opens it, it’s packed with medicines. One of the few beauty products in it is Oil of Olay oil-free beauty fluid in a white bottle, a packaging that dates back to the early 1990s.

Kærlighed for voksne (2022)

On Leonora’s dressing table there are two Dior lipsticks – Rouge Dior Ultracare in the red case and Rouge Dior in the classic black case.

There’s also a bottle of Estee Lauder Double Wear liquid foundation.

The pink bottle is not a perfume but the deluxe edition of Jurlique rosewater balancing mist intense.

Day Out of Days (2015)

There are several beauty products in Mia’s bathroom cabinet.

On the top shelf there’s a bottle of MCMC Noble fragrance, created by Anne McClain and launched in 2009.

Most of the beauty products on Hae-ra’s vanity are by the French brand Sisley Paris.

Half-hidden among other bottles there’s Phyto-Blanc Le Concentré pure bright activating serum.

In the central part of the table there are three tubes of Phyto Lip Shine lipstick.

Next to the lipsticks there’s a pump bottle of Phyto Teint Éclat long-lasting fluid foundation.

Behind the fluid foundation there’s a bottle of PhytoBlanc lightening toning lotion with botanical extracts.

Next there are two products for the eye area – the gentle eye and lip make-up remover and the eye contour mask.

On the far right side of the vanity there’s a tube of Eau de Campagne moisturizing body lotion.

Chanson douce (2019)

Mila (Assya Da Silva) and her nanny Louise (Karin Viard) standing in the bathroom give us a chance to take a look at the busy shelf by the mirror.

The perfume bottle on the far left is Hermès Un Jardin après la Mousson, a warm spicy eau de toilette created by Jean-Claude Ellena and launched in 2008.

Several products are by Estée Lauder: the first is Sumptuous Extreme mascara.

The second is Double Wear Nude foundation.

Another brand Myriam (Mila’s mother) likes is La Roche-Posay. The white tube on the left is Hydreane Extra Riche thermal spring water cream.

The aqua jar with gold cap is another Estée Lauder product – DayWear Matte oil-control anti-oxidant moisture gel creme.

Moving to the right side of the shelf, we can see a bottle of Weleda toning lotion.

Next, a spray bottle of La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF30 sunscreen.

Last, the white tube is La Roche-Posay Lipikar anti-dryness body milk.

Right in the centre of the shelf there’s Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick. It’s a very personal item, but Louise doesn’t think twice before wearing it.

Lasciarsi un giorno a Roma (2021)

There are only products by Sisley Paris on Zoe’s dressing table.

Sage femme (2017)

Béatrice (Catherine Deneuve) has a very interesting selection of fragrances and beauty products on her bathroom glass shelf.

On the far left there’s a bottle of Chanel No. 5 without stopper. This doesn’t come as a surprise: the French actress was the testimonial of the iconic fragrance in the 1970s.

Moving to the right, we can see a bottle of Chanel red nail polish.

There’s also a Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick in its beautiful glossy black case with golden details.

Chanel No. 5 appears in its eau de cologne vintage version, too.

The purple spray bottle contains Sothys Elixir Nourissant Corps nourishing body elixir in Fleur de cerisier et Lotus.

Béatrice doesn’t use Chanel make-up and fragrances only: the white jar with black cap is from the Précision skincare line.

The tall bottle with glossy cap is Dior Diorskin liquid foundation.

Last but not least, on the far right we find Sothys Lotion Vitalité cleansing lotion for normal to combination skin.

Sugar & Spice (2001)

There are several interesting beauty products on Diane’s dressing table.

The two tall bottles on the left are bodycare products by Bath & Body Works – Heart’s Desire moisture-rich body lotion and matching body wash.

On the glass tray on the right there’s basically a Clinique corner.

There are two bottles of clarifying lotion.

The aqua green jar with silver cap is Advanced Cream.

There are also two silver tubes of Dramatically Different lipstick.

Last, two bottles of Dramatically Different moisturizing lotion.

Thanks to my friend Jennifer who identified the Bath & Body Works for me.
