In the very last episode of the tv show, Annalise (Viola Davis) faces the most important trial of her life, the one where she’s accused of killing basically all the people that have died in 6 seasons. In this scene, while she’s discussing with her mother whether she deserves to win this final challenge or not, we can see two interesting beauty products on her vanity.
The silver-ish spray bottle is MAC Fix+ fixing spray.
The opaque glass bottle is Dior Diorskin Forever liquid foundation.
Tina Fischer receives a package from West Berlin: her brother, Thomas Posimski, is sending food, candy and toiletries.
On the left there’s a box containing Fa bar soap, produced in Germany by Henkel.
Then there’s the after shave Hâttric Classic, first launched in 1963, characterised by fresh notes of lemon, lime and bergamot.
Last but not least, the iconic blue tin of Nivea Creme, one of the most famous German beauty products. Created in Hamburg in 1911 by Oscar Troplowitz, the chemist who co-founded Beiersdorf, it’s a multi-use snow-white cream which has been a staple in the beauty kits of many generations.
Benny Topling (Oliver Lansley) has got a tin jar of Vaseline white petroleum jelly on his table.
Ludovica (Alice Pagani) is putting on Burt’s Bees beeswax lip balm.
There’s a jar of Pond’s dry skin cream on Jazmine Wintour’s dressing table.
Ethan (Austin Abrams) is at Daniel’s Halloween party. In the bathroom where he’s just met Kat we can see a bottle of Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser. On the shelf above there’s a Nivea shaving foam.
Thanks to Emily in the comments for the Nivea id.
Debbie (Betty Gilpin) keeps VO5 Crystal Clear hairspray and a jar of Noxzema skin cream on her dressing table.
In the first part of the episode there’s a sequence showing several medicine cabinets from the several houses Rue and her family have lived in. There are many medicines, of course, but some beauty products and toiletries, too. In the screencap above, for example, we can see Hask Kalahari melon oil color protection deep conditioner.
In another cabinet there are Mitchum 48-hour protection stick deodorant, Aquaphor healing ointment and Gilchrist & Soames English Herb soap in Chamomile.
There’s a tube of Up & Up skin-refreshing apricot scrub on Andi’s bedside table.
Celeste (Nicole Kidman) is getting ready to go to court to fight her custody battle. She’s the only character in the show who’s consistently shown while putting make-up on. I think this is not coincidental: since S01 she’s shown as a trophy wife, a beautiful woman whose only task – according to her abusive husband – is staying beautiful and decorative. By showing her often applying make-up it’s like make-up is the gate through which she can reach her own self, but at the same time it’s a tool she uses to hide her real self, the battered and abused woman who stayed in a violent relationship for her children’s sake.
Among the products in her bathroom there are
Wet n Wild eye make-up remover
Chanel Perfection Lumière Velvet foundation
Charlotte Tilbury Magic foundation
Charlotte Tilbury Cheek to Chic blusher
The lipstick she uses is by NARS.
