Riverdale S06E04 (The Witching Hour[s])

Poppy Blossom (Madelaine Petsch) is one of the protagonists of this episode, inspired to The Hours (2002) by Stephen Daldry, based on the novel with the same title by Michael Cunningham. Her storyline is set in the 1950s: she’s an independent woman who practices the arts of magic, through which she tries to help the women of Rivervale trapped in unhappy or boring lives.

She holds beauty lessons in her own mansion, so it’s interesting to see what’s included in her kit.

In the round train case there’s a box of Coty Airspun loose face powder.

The lipstick she puts on a red lacquered tray is Color Riche by L’Oreal.

The red nail polish bottles she puts on gold standing mirrors are from the Color Riche line by L’Oreal.

Maria’s Lovers (1984)

There are two interesting products on the mantelpiece in the room where the protagonist (Nastassja Kinski) is getting ready.

The first is a perfume box by Dana. The name of the perfume is impossible to read: I believe it’s Tabu, the legendary “parfum de puta” created by Jean Carles and launched in 1932. The film is set in 1946, though, so the box could contain other Dana perfumes – the chypre fruity 20 Carats (1933), the amber Emir (launched in 1935) and the floral Chantilly (1941).

The other product is a round cardboard box of Coty Airspun loose face powder.
