After the Hunt (2025)

Lancôme Advanced Génifique youth activating concentrate can be seen reflected in the tri-fold mirror on Alma’s dressing table.

The selection of this prop is not surprising: Julia Roberts has been a brand ambassador since 2009.

Right in front of Alma (Julia Roberts) we can see a Mason Pearson boar bristle and nylon hair brush.

Challengers (2024)

Tashi (Zendaya) takes a jar from the dressing table in her hotel room.

It’s a body cream she applies on her legs.

This blue glass jar with bronze cap contains The Body Cream by Augustinus Bader.

When she puts the jar down on her bedside table, another product is revealed: it’s a tube of Resurrection Aromatique hand balm by Aesop.

Bones and All (2022)

When Maren (Taylor Russell) goes to a drugstore to buy a shampoo, we get a nice selection of 1980s products.

On the top shelf, on the left there are some bottles of Silkience conditioner.

The black bottle is Suave Salon Formula conditioner.

Other Suave products follow: the white bottle with purple and sage green logo is Suave Daily Clarifying conditioner. The metallic blue bottle contains Suave Frequent Use conditioner.

Next, there’s Suave Full Body shampoo.

The bottle that Maren selects is Suave moisturizing conditioner.

On the right side of the shelf there are some bottles of Rave unscented hairspray.

More Suave shampoos can be seen in the bottom shelf, starting from the left. Among them, Suave moisturizing shampoo.

There are also some bottles of Head & Shoulders shampoo.

The green bottles contain Clairol Small Miracle extra-body conditioner. Next, more Silkience bottles (the product they contain is unclear).

The blue bottles on the right contain Finesse conditioner. Last, another haircare product, this time by Prell.

Close-up on the Suave conditioner that Maren decides to buy.

Bones and All (2022)

There’s a small glass bottle of Oil of Olay beauty lotion on the dressing table in the house of one of Sully’s victims.

The pineapple-shaped bottle is Avon Pineapple Petite. It’s impossible to tell what fragrance it contains because the American brand has often used the same bottle to house different scents.

Behind Pineapple Petite there’s a rare bottle of Jonteel fragrance. This is part of a line produced by Langlois and discontinued in 1941; as explained by Grace at Cleopatra’s Boudoir it included “perfume, toilet water, face powder, vanishing cream, cold cream face powder, soap, cold cream, wool powder puffs, and talcum powder.”

Other two Avon products are on the dressing table, too: they are Lemon Velvet and Lily of the Valley cream sachet jars.

Thanks to Alessandra for submitting this post, to Caroline Louise for the Jonteel id and to Kelly in the comments for the Avon cream sachet id.

We Are Who We Are E02 (Right Here, Right Now #2)

Among the toiletries in Caitlin’s parents’ bathroom, there are a bottle of Old Spice Classic cologne and Speed Stick deodorant.

When she moves into her own bathroom, we can see two Palmer’s products (coconut body oil in a spray bottle and cocoa butter formula).

The deodorant in the silver case is Old Spice Swagger.

The green bottle contains Galàn Moco de Gorila hair gel.

Just a few moments before starting the performance of Volk, the dancers of the Markos Tanz-Akademie get in a line. On one shelf by the dressing room mirrors there’s an unusual product: Roxy hand-cleaning paste by the German brand Pelikan. Famous for its fountain pens and writing instruments, Pelikan invented this product [1] for cleaning hands from ink, oil and dirt. A product definitely needed in the creepiest dance academy of West Berlin.

[1] It was already on the market in 1938 (as shown here).
