There’s a pot of Jergens all-purpose face cream on Mylene Cruz’s dressing table.

Mr Selfridge S02E02
Kitty Hawkins (Amy Beth Hayes) is mad at Frank Edwards (Samuel West): he tries to make up with her and visits the make-up counter at Selfridges. He asks for advice: he wants to give something special to someone special (her ;)). She plays along: she suggests “a new perfume” by Guerlain, which happens to be Mitsouko in the traditional flacon bouchon coeur. This is a historically accurate choice, because the perfume was created in 1919, around the time in which the tv show is set.
Other products she suggests are Yardley facial cream (in the dark green glass pot originally used for English Lavender brilliantine) and a Penhaligon’s soap.
Last but not least, she mentions Lady Primrose hand lotion: the beautiful fluted glass jar shown is actually used for the Royal Extract body cream.
Feud S01E01 (Pilot)
Joan Crawford’s beauty routine notoriously included using handfuls of ice cubes and witch hazel astringent to close the pores and reduce swelling and puffiness. The witch hazel shown here is by Dickinson’s.
The same routine was shown in Mommy Dearest (1981) by Frank Perry, starring Faye Dunaway as Crawford.
The Get Down E03 (Darkness Is Your Candle)
After getting a bootleg tape of a Grandmaster Flash’s live performance, the Kiplings decide to play it at a party they organize at Adele’s, the hairdresser’s shop of their parents. Among the products seen in the shop, there are Thayers rose petal witch hazel toner, Tres Flores brilliantine and Pinaud Clubman after-shave lotion. 
The haircare products on the bottom shelf are by Sta-Sof-Fro: the tall bottles are activators from the Curl line, while the tube is Rub On hair and scalp conditioner.
Thanks to Olle in the comments for the brilliantine id.
How to Get Away with Murder S03E13 (It’s War)
Several medicine bottles can be seen in Bonnie’s bathroom cabinet, along with a perfume bottle – Elizabeth Arden Untold, a fruity floral perfume created by Clement Gavarry and launched in 2013. It’s quite surprising that such a hard character wears such a girly perfume, but the ways in which we choose perfumes are often inscrutable.
We can also see a bottle of Aveeno Clear Complexion daily moisturiser.
Girls S06E01 (All I Ever Wanted)
When Hannah gets to Montauk and opens her suitcase, she realises her Sun Bum sunscreen lotion has spilt all over the clothes. This is the SPF 50 lotion (water-resistant, gluten-free and vegan).
How to Get Away with Murder S03E01 (We’re Good People Now)
A lot has changed in Annalise Keating’s life since the show started, including her perfume. You may remember a bottle of Cartier Eau de Cartier was sitting on her dressing table in the first season. Now she has opted for something different – Vera Wang. Created by Jean-Claude Delville and Harry Fremont, it was launched in 2002; it’s a white floral perfume, with notes of lily, gardenia, lotus and lily of the valley.
The tall green bottle on the right is Elizabeth Arden Refining Toner lotion, a product now discontinued.
Thanks to Jennifer for both ids.
Miami Vice S01E01 (Brother’s Keeper)
There’s a jar of Pond’s cold cream in the Miami-Dade Police Department toilet where Gina (Saundra Santiago) and Sonny have a discussion.

There are a face cream jar and two lip colours on Annalise Keating’s dressing table.
The face cream is Rosehip moisture restorative night crème by Essano, a brand from New Zealand.
The lip colour with the golden case is L’Oreal Color Riche Extraordinaire liquid lipstick in #502 Plum Adagio; the other one is a lipstick by Revlon.
Ballers S02E02 (Enter the Temple)
The cabinet in Tracy Legette’s bathroom is pretty interesting: there are three bottles of Guerlain Aqua Allegoria (two on the top shelf, another on the second one), some Essie nail polishes and Clarins Eau Ressourçante.
On the washbasin shelf there’s Yes To cucumber and eucalyptus liquid hand soap and Penhaligon’s Bayolea facial wash. This could also be the soothing gel or the cleansing mask (they have the same tube).
