Austin Langham (Teddy Sears) tries to make it up with his wife Elise (Elizabeth Bogush) by complimenting her on her perfume. Unfortunately, she’s not wearing Nina Ricci L’Air du Temps (probably her signature scent) but something more prosaic.
Io la conoscevo bene (1965)
L’Oreal Elnett Satin hairspray and Latte di Cupra cleansing milk in the back room of the hairdresser’s where Adriana (Stefania Sandrelli) works. Tonico di Cupra toner can be seen on her dressing table at home.
Jada Pinkett Smith’s Dressing Table (2014)
Jada Pinkett Smith has just posted this picture on her Facebook account. She’s started her day at 5.30 am, lots of press events for Gotham ahead.
I’ve spotted a MAC lip liner, foundation sticks and lots of NARS compacts (plus a paper bag) on her dressing table. The foundation sticks are black and gold, so I’m not sure if they’re by Iman or Bobbi Brown, since the two packagings are practically the same.
There are also a couple of Becca compacts and Dermalogica antioxidant face mist.
Thanks to my reader Jessica for the Becca and Dermalogica ids.

New York Stories: Life Without Zoe (1989)
Zoe Valdes (Heather McComb) keeps a giant bottle of Chanel no. 5 perfume on her desk.
Bonus read: an overview of the Chanel accessories and costume jewellery seen in the film. In the late 1980s Sofia Coppola wasn’t a director yet, but she worked on this film: she curated the costume and wardrobe department, wrote the screenplay with her father and designed the main titles.

‘Shley Osgoode (Andrea Bowen) getting ready for the prom. She’s using a MAC Antiquitease: Royal Assets eyeshadow palette in Warm Eyes.
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)
Monica (Frances O’ Connor) and Henry Swinton (Sam Robards) are getting ready to go to a party. She’s just worn her favourite perfume, which her husband loves.
David (Haley Joel Osment), a highly advanced robotic boy who’s staying with them, desperately wants to be loved: for this reason, he wears Monica’s perfume.
Unfortunately, he’s used all her Chanel Coco perfume, which is very hard to find in the future envisioned in the film.
The Syrian Bride (2004)
Marc Almond’s Dressing Table (2014)
Marc Almond shared this picture of his dressing table some months ago. He was having sore throat issues, so there are some throat pastilles, too.
I can see UltraDex recalcifying and whitening toothpaste, No7 Beautiful Skin cleansing balm, Moroccanoil molding cream, Redken Wax Blast 10 styling hairspray and Vaseline Lip Therapy petroleum jelly balm.
The Rum Diary (2011)
There’s a tube of Mollé brushless shaving cream on Paul Kemp’s bathroom shelf.
