May December (2023)

The blush in stick form that Gracie (Julianne Moore) is holding is by ILIA.

She also uses Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin foundation.

The lip colour Gracie applies on Elizabeth is the Divine lip & cheek duo by Lilah B.

Quiz Lady (2023)

Jessica (Sandra Oh) turns the ordinary life of her sister Anne around when she moves in with her. Jessica doesn’t have a job, sleeps until late and is very serious about skincare.

Her beauty kit includes City Beauty line-smoothing hydro masks, a green jade roller, Anomaly dry shampoo and Kahi bounce balm.

This last product gets a special mention when the two sisters are in Philadelphia. They are sharing a hotel room and Jessica offers Anne the anti-wrinkle balm saying “it’s Korean”, which usually means innovation and quality.

The Killer (2023)

The opening credits feature a very brief moment in which some beauty products and fragrances appear on screen.

The gloved hand of the Killer is holding a bottle of Chanel Coco Mademoiselle. But this is neither the eau de parfum nor the eau de toilette, because the name of the product is printed in black on white paper. I believe the prop masters used the bottle of the Eau de Parfum Intense (bottle and stopper made of clear glass) and replaced the neck sticker, which is in this case gold with white stripes, with the one from the Eau Privée version, which is white with gold stripes.

In the background we can see a bottle of Caudalie Vinoperfect concentrated brightening essence.

The bottle on the right is supposed to be part of the Replica series by Maison Margiela. The bottle is the same, but the front label has been replaced (a different font has been used for the word Replica, for example), even though it still bears the name of the original product.

The Sopranos S05E05 (Irregular Around the Margins)

There are some interesting beauty products in Adriana and Christopher’s bathroom.

On the shelf behind the girl there’s a tall Jo Malone bottle. It’s unclear what product it is but, judging from the light content, it could be shampoo.

The moment in which Adriana (Drea De Matteo) opens a mirrored cabinet reveals more items.

The silver can with blue bands on the top shelf is Zirh Clean alpha-hydroxy face wash for men.

On the top shelf there’s a bottle of Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Healing lotion. I couldn’t find any exact pictures of it but you can see the packaging in a 2002 commercial.

The dark blue box sitting in the middle shelf is Boucheron Pour Homme.

There’s a NARS box, too. White packaging has usually been associated to the brand’s skincare line, but online there’s no evidence of the original products launched in 2002, so I don’t have any visual reference.

The Power S01E08 (Just a Girl)

Margot (Toni Collette) keeps some perfumes and beauty products on her mirrored vanity.

On the far left there’s a bottle of Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey eau de toilette, a floral aquatic fragrance by Jacques Cavallier launched in 1992.

Next to it there’s Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds, a floral aldehyde fragrance created by Carlos Benaim and launched in 1991.

On the right side of the table there’s a bottle of Calvin Klein Escape, a floral aquatic fragrance created by Claude Dir and launched in 1991.

On the vanity there’s also a jar of Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv cream.

Medusa Deluxe (2022)

The last part of the film is set after the main tragic events told previously. Cleve and Angel have a conversation in the hairdresser’s dressing room during another hairdressing competition. The camera pans over the room, giving us the chance to see several haircare products.

There are a can of TRESemmé hairspray and a bottle of Natessance ricin shampoo.

There’s also Osmo Deep Moisture shampoo or conditioner in a pump bottle.

Medusa Deluxe (2022)

Divine (Kayla Meikle) holding little Pablo in her arms gives us the chance to take a look at the table in front of her.

On it we can see a bottle of Simple micellar cleansing water (or facial toner).

There’s also a bottle of Aunt Jackie’s Curls & Coils Oh So Clean! moisturizing and softening shampoo.

When the camera moves, we can also see a bottle of African Pride Olive Miracle olive and tea tree growth oil treatment.

The Return of the Pink Panther (1975)

Lady Claudine Litton (Catherine Schell) keeps several beauty products and perfume bottles on a mirrored vanity in her bathroom.

The bottle that immediately catches the attention is the Guerlain flacon montre. It has a teal disk on the front label, which means the eau de cologne in it is Mitsouko.

There’s also a bottle of Rochas Madame Rochas eau de toilette.

Last, a refillable atomiser by Nina Ricci. From the details of the metal section and from the size of the bottle, it could be the atomiser of L’air du Temps. The bottle seen in the film is not decorated with gold doves, though.

American Horror Story S12E04 (The Vanishing Twin)

Virginia (Debra Monk) pays a visit to her son Dexter and his wife Anna. The skincare products she keeps on her dressing table are by Tata Harper.

The jar contains Water-Lock moisturizer.

The pale green bottle contains Superkind bio-barrier serum.
