A pharmacy in France is no CVS — it is more like the skincare counter at your favorite high-end department store, without the judgy sales people and panic-inducing prices. These products are highly sought-after, beauty-insider worshipped, and as easy to get your hands on as a stroll to the drugstore at the end of the block. Trust me, you’re going to want to bring an extra suitcase to buy these products in bulk.
But if you’re not going to France anytime soon, thank your lucky stars for the internet. The favorite products of Parisian It-Girls and cult products of the most stylish country in the world can be yours at the click of “add to cart.”
Klorane Shampoo & Conditioner
This stuff is good, and I mean really good. It comes in a wide range of (nature-like) ingredients to work for different hair types and goals, like flax fiber for volume and mango butter for hydration (and you can count on each one to really work).
Bioderma Hydrabio Serum
It should really be described as a treatment more than a serum. This fan-favorite is responsible for moisturizing the driest of skin. Once you add it into your daily beauty routine, you’re not going to be able to stop.
Avène Hydrance Optimale SPF 20
This is probably the most perfect moisturizer — it has SPF for sun protection, but at the same time a mattifying effect on skin (so no more of that sunscreen grease on your face). Not to mention it’s intensely hydrating and even soothes irritated skin.
La Roche-Posay Ultra Eau Micellaire
The Micellar Water that started it all. By now, you probably know enough about Micellar Water and its amazing effects on your skin. But don’t take it from me — the flawless faces of the French are convincing enough. And this one from La Roche-Posay is a French-favorite.
Efferalgan Paracetamol Vitamin C
Otherwise known as the Hangover Cure of the chic and fabulous, it’s also buzzed about for its amazing ability to help cure period pain and headaches. Dissolve these tablets in water for France’s favorite cure-all.
Klorane Gentle Dry Shampoo With Oat Milk
Dry shampoo is the product we owe our best hair days and longest-lasting blowouts to, but it can be insanely drying. Oat milk soothes the scalp so there’s no irritation and dandruff, and it gets the job done without drying out your hair. C’est parfait!
Marvis Mint Whitening Toothpaste
Not only is this toothpaste extremely refreshing, but it’s also the only toothpaste I know that is so chic and picture-perfect that you can’t help but post it on your Instagram.
NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil
This multi-purpose dry oil from NUXE feels just as good as it looks. It made my skin soft, smooth, and shimmery, and it never made me break out, even when using it on my face. Though it did leave my very thin hair a little oily, I’d imagine it works great for that perfectly thick Parisian hair.
Avene Thermal Spring Water
This mist (even the word just sounds luxurious) is totally natural, extremely hydrating, and easy to travel with, making it the perfect perfect product to pack in your carryon on your flight to Paris.
Le Petit Marseillais Orange Blossom Body Wash
This stuff just smells like Paris in the spring. The scent is not too overpowering, and the formula won't dry out your skin. PLUS its an extra gentle pH neutral formula. Those Parisians think of everything!
Avene XeraCalm A.D Lipid-Replenishing Cream
If you have sensitive skin or are prone to skin issues like eczema, look no further than this calming cream that is suitable for even the most sensitive skin issues as a calming moisturizer.
