Rising Sun (1993)

Leave a comment

Cheryl Lynn (Tatjana Patitz) is sitting in front of a very busy vanity.

The heart-shaped bottle in front of her is Escada Margaretha Ley, a white floral fragrance created by Michel Almairac and launched in 1990.

On the right side of the table there’s a nail polish bottle with white cap by Clarins.

More Clarins products can be seen, in boxed form, behind the standing mirror. Too bad I couldn’t find any pictures of this rose-printed packaging. I remember it was used for lipsticks and probably for compact foundations, too.

Talking about foundations, the bottle without cap we can see in front of the standing mirror is MAC face and body foundation.

Thanks to LePetitCivet for submitting this post.

mrsdoubtfire_bornunicornWhen Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) and his wife split up, he desperately tries to find a place in the lives of his three children. The trick he opts for is pretending to be a Scottish nanny, Mrs. Euphegenia Doubtfire. Before turning into Mrs. Doubtfire, he tries to impersonate different types of babysitters: his brother Frank and his partner Jack (both are make-up artists) help him find the right type. One of the babysitters he impersonates has a raven black wig, a strong Latin accent and stiletto nails.

Daniel is obviously referring to the famous fictional nail polish shade mentioned in The Women (1939) by George Cukor, but the nail polish used by Frank is by Clarins.
