Amy Winehouse’s Make-Up Case

tumblr_lstmeyhyu61r2wir2o1_r1_500rimmelExaggerateLiquidEyeLiner_bornunicornThick eyeliner flicks were among her most notable trademarks. She probably experimented with several products, but in the picture above she was using Rimmel Exaggerate liquid eyeliner.

mavalanailpolishdisplay_bornunicornI love this picture, where Amy was shopping for nail polishes at a drugstore. She selected a couple of red shades from the Mavala display. The tiny bottles and the wide colour selection make the Swiss brand one of my favourites.

chanelhotpinklipstick_bornunicorn.jpgThe connection between Amy and Chanel became clear when Karl Lagerfeld sent his models sporting thick eyeliner and beehives on the runway of the Métiers d’Art pre-fall 2008 collection. Amy had her own unique style but she liked Chanel bags and make-up. In the picture above, she was putting on some Chanel lipstick in a bright pink shade.

houbigant_vintagefacepowder_bornunicornValerie Maurel (Joséphine de la Baume) works for the American advertising agency J. Walter Thompson. Mr Selfridge asks her to give him advice on whether to sell make-up products on the store’s new beauty counters. She shows Mr Selfridge and department heads some make-up items, among which a yellow loose powder box. This is Houbigant Quelques Fleurs powder box, with the trademark flower basket on the lid. Houbigant was founded in Paris in 1775, but this specific face powder was released in the 1940s. The choice is historically inaccurate, but I must admit it’s convincing.

I’m a bit on the fence when it comes to identifying the exact shade used by Juliette: I do believe she’s applying it on top of a red lipstick, but it’s definitely a matching red colour.

The gourmet floral fragrance, launched in 2008, includes notes of wild berries, mandarin, honeysuckle, gardenia and jasmine, plus amber, caramel, vanilla, sandalwood and pralines.

Younger S01E11 (Hot Mitzvah)

younger_s01e11_bornunicorn dovedeepmoisturebodywash_bornunicornThere’s a bottle of Dove Deep Moisture nourishing body wash on Josh’s bath-tub. The label has been covered, so you can read “Park” and not the actual brand on it.

The same has been done to a tube of Noxzema Ultimate Clear daily scrub.

Thanks to Emily in the comments for the Noxzema id.

prisonbreak_s02e06_subdivision_bornunicorn (7) thierrymugler_angel_bornunicornT-Bag (Robert Knepper) is one of the most wicked and creepiest characters of this tv show. He shows the unexpected ability of identifying the fragrance Jeanette Owens (Diana Scarwid) is wearing: it’s Thierry Mugler Angel, the mother of all gourmand oriental fragrances. Created by Olivier Cresp and Yves de Chirin and launched in 1992, Angel stays in T-Bag’s memory because an ex used it; as such, it brings back both good and bad memories.
