Gilmore Girls-ify your beauty routine! As the revival hits Netflix, FEMAIL details products used on set and show-inspired cosmetics every fan needs
- The show's make-up artist reveals the secret to Rory and Lorelai's glowy complexion in Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life
- Find out what hair brand Rory uses in the mini-series
- Shop Gilmore Girls-inspired beauty products
While binge-watching Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life on Netflix last week, we were so absorbed in the lightning-fast dialogue, digesting new plotlines and feelings of nostalgia, that it's safe to say we missed a few minor yet useful tidbits of information like, for example, what hair products Rory Gilmore uses.
In one scene where she talks on the phone in her childhood bedroom, eagle-eyed employees of Not Your Mother's Haircare spotted two of the brand's products - a texturizing sea salt spray and a detangling spray - scattered on a dresser among a flower pot, a hair brush, a hand mirror and a jewelry box.
While we sadly can't ask Rory what other products she swears by being that she's a fictional character and all, we did get some intel from the head make-up artist on set, Tegan Taylor.
Secrets from set: The Gilmore Girls: A Day in the Life head make-up artist revealed the products she used give Lorelai (left) and Rory Gilmore (right) a natural glow

The make-up artist revealed that she relied on Vita Liberata tanning products to give the actresses their glowy complexions.
Considering that the show is set in the made-up village of Stars Hollow, Connecticut and not Miami, Florida, Tegan went for a natural, sun-kissed look and achieved it by sticking with the brand's medium solution and touching up in between spray tans by buffing the Vita Liberata Mousse into skin.
And if you'd like to integrate even more Gilmore Girls-related products into your routine, a handful of superfans/indie beauty brands have dreamt up items that would look right at home on the shelves of the Stars Hollow Beauty Supply Shop.
Brija Cosmetics has followed up its Mean Girls and Harry Potter-inspired powder make-up collections with a 17-piece eyeshadow line that will delight Gilmore Girls fans. Product names include A Film by Kirk (a semi-sheer white shade), Hit by a Deer (a rosy pink) and Am I Crying or Laughing (a dusty coral).
One Etsy user has created a Vicious Trollop lip balm, a nod to the name of a lipstick that Lorelai memorably wears in season two of the series.
Another Etsy find is a set of bath bombs that feature scents inspired by characters, locations and notable scenes. Luke's Diner, for example, smells like coffee and vanilla, and Rory's Books is scented with cedar, vanilla and sandalwood.
