Whether you’re a New Yorker yourself or just like to live vicariously through the crazy, chaotic lives of the Sex and the City girl squad, there is something about Sarah Jessica Parker’s iconic on-screen persona that always has us coming back for more. That said, anytime SJP gives us the lowdown on the products and treatments she’s using to stay looking so good after several decades of SATC, we listen. Today, the And Just Like That… star gave Instagram followers a tour of the purse she’s been carrying while filming the latest season of the spin off, and spilled some surprising beauty secrets along the way.
SJP’s On-Set Beauty Staples
With Parker’s custom bag on display and products spread across her table, our eyes were immediately drawn to the Dior Addict Lip Maximizer Glow ($40). “I’m not sure why I have a lipgloss, I have a makeup artist on set!” she laughs. Next to the lip plumping gloss was a stray hair tie and bobby pins, which Parker admits she also has no clue where they came from.
The next beauty product in her reassuringly chaotic purse tour was one she discovered while traveling: The Steel Beam Moisturizing Lotion Bar ($10). “It’s so great and the size is not just charming but it fits in any bag,” she says, “A little goes a long way, which is why it’s so beat up—I’ve had it forever, it’s fantastic.” She also showed off two different hand sanitizers, one of which she says is, unfortunately, “not gettable.” In addition to some gum, a red Tootsie pop and some cough drops, SJP’s bag also houses the Prince Matchabelli Skin Musk ($15), which she says speaks for itself.
