Sweet Dreams is the name of a sleep-inducing secret weapon disguised as a lipstick. Peggy Carter applies it on a lipstick she’s already been wearing: now she’s ready to kiss her victim (Spider Raymond) and to make him temporarily unconscious.

Agent Carter S01E03 (Time And Tide)
There are two interesting make-up items on Peggy Carter’s dressing table.
The large gold box is Chen Yu Cloud Silk cake make-up refill, a compact foundation. I’ve always known this brand for its super–glamourous advertisement campaigns and for its nail polishes, but I had no idea it made regular make-up, too. Furthermore, I had no idea it’s still in the business.
On the Cloud Silk compact there’s a smaller box whose lid reads “Dorothy Perkins”, a name which is still present on the market as a clothing brand. Back in the 1940s it produced make-up items, too. I don’t know exactly what the round box in the screencap above contained, but I guess it was rouge or face powder.
Agent Carter (2015)
Have you ever wondered what is the exact lipstick shade worn by Agent Margaret “Peggy” Carter (Hayley Atwell), the Marvel character who is among the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.? The British actress, who’s currently filming the tv series Agent Carter, revealed it on her Twitter account. When it comes to retro and glamourous shades, there’s one way to go: Bésame Cosmetics. The lipstick worn by Hayley is Red Velvet, a 1946-inspired colour.
It’s a deep red with a semi-matte finish, suitable for everyday wear. It’s one of the Bésame lipsticks I’ve tried, thanks to lovely samples I received from the American brand, and I can assure you it’s a fantastic colour. If you are red-lipstick lovers, you must have it in your collection.
