Courtney Love recently shared a picture of how her dressing table looked like during her Australian tour. “Fucking mess”, she commented, and the table is actually a mess.
I’ve able to spot a jar of Eve Lom cleanser (Courtney loves it), a Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip pencil and a Dior Contour lip pencil.
This picture of Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski was taken by Bill Ray in London in 1968.
Among the products sitting on the tiled shelf I can see
some Erno Laszlo products (among which a jar of pHelityl Cream)
a Revlon nail polish
a fluted bottle of Rochas Moustache eau de cologne, a citrus aromatic fragrance created by Edmond Roudnitska and Thérèse Roudnitska, and launched in 1949
a bottle of La Bottega Vetiver eau de cologne
a tiny bottle of Shiseido Zen, a chypre fragrance created by Josephine Catapano and launched in 1964.
Thanks to Showtimesynergy in the comments for the Rochas id, and to Obliviana in the comments for the Shiseido id.
Her makeup case, sold by Christie’s in 1999 for $266,500 contained:
3 Max Factor lipsticks
Two Elizabeth Arden cream eyeshadows (Autumn Smoke and Pearly Blue)
Two Elizabeth Arden Eye Stopper eyeliners, one brown and one black
One Leichner of London eyeshadow
Two bottles of Revlon nail polish (Cherries a la Mode and Hot Coral)
Glorene of Hollywood eyeliner and false eyelashes
Two bottles of perfumed lotion by Shiseido
Anita d’Foged Day Dew cream make-up and cover-up
Two pots of Erno Lazlo make-up
The content of Marilyn Monroe’s make-up drawer is displayed at the Max Factor Museum in Hollywood.
One card says: “Fearing blemishes, Marilyn washed her face fifteen times a day, frequently used Nivea moisturizer and thought her right side of her face was ‘her’ best side”.
How awesome is this? I’ve spotted Guerlain La petite robe noire perfume, L’Oreal Elnett Satin hairspray and Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or on the dressing table of the great Italian actress Adriana Asti.
The picture was taken by Rocco Talucci at Caio Melisso Theatre in Spoleto during the 56th edition of Festival dei due mondi, where the actress performed in La voce umana (La voix humaine) and Il bell’indifferente (Le bel indifférent) by Jean Cocteau.
These pictures were taken by Mick Rock during David Bowie’s British tour in 1973. On his busy dressing table you can see a Dior houndstooth bottle.
My first thought went to the Diorissimo cologne, but the front label is not visible, so it’s impossible to say what perfume he wore. Plus, many Dior perfumes were marketed in the houndstooth bottle (some examples here).
This is not from a movie or tv show but from the set of Pretty Little Liars. Tammin Sursock is ready for her close-up as Jenna Marshall. On her busy dressing table I’ve spotted NARS liquid foundation and Velvet Gloss lip pencil, plus Wet Ones hand wipes.
By the mirror, on the left, there are two Drunk Elephant skincare products: the one with the fuchsia cap is T.L.C. Framboos glycolic night serum, while the one with the orange cap is C-Firma day serum.
Sofia Coppola’s bathroom cabinet.
I spy Caudalie, Kerastase, Dr. Hauschka, Valmont, Clarins, Mario Badescu, Bumble and Bumble, Joëlle Ciocco and Biologique Recherche products, plus NARS lipsticks, Diptyque Olene, Robert Piguet Fracas and Marc Jacobs perfume.
