La baie des anges (1963)

Jackie (Jeanne Moreau) has finally reached Monte Carlo, where she’s ready to take the local casino by storm. We’ve seen that a massive bottle of Weil Antilope sits on her bathroom shelf, but what’s on her vanity?

On the right side of the table there’s a tin can of Max Factor Primitif talc. This was an ancillary product of a chypre floral fragrance launched in 1956.  

There are several make-up items, too. Their packaging is quite basic, but among them I couldn’t miss another product by Max Factor – the Pan-Stik foundation.
