Bioderma Crealine H2O Micelle Solution 8.90 Euros/500ml (£10.29/250ml Escentual)
The Rolls Royce of cleansing
waters! Although you can buy Bioderma in the UK now, it's still loads cheaper
in France. I stocked up with two big bottles and a cute dinky bottle for
travelling.
Bioderma Crealine H2O Face and Eye Wipes 4.99 Euros (Not available in the UK)
Luxuriously thick wipes, powerful
enough to remove eye makeup yet gentle enough not to irritate the skin, also
reassuringly moist.... and as far as I can tell, not available in the UK.
La Roche-Posay Lipikar Hand Cream 5.78 Euros for 2X50ml (£4.50 Boots)
City Pharma was stacked with
cheap hand creams so I picked up three!
This one promised daily care for dry, very dry chapped hands.
Avene Hand Cream With Cold Cream 3.90 Euros/50ml (£6.50 Escentual)
Skin is instantly relieved and
hydrated thanks to intensely nourishing White Beeswax, and is soothed with the
healing capabilities of Avène Thermale Spa Water.
Bioderma Atoderm Hand Cream 1.50 Euros/50ml (£6.50 Amazon)
An intensely nourishing treatment
for damaged hands.
Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum Complexion Correcting €37.90/30ml (£45 Lookfantastic)
After receiving a sample in my
Birchbox I had to have this amazing radiance serum but I didn’t fancy paying
£45. Thanks to the exchange rate this one set me back around £26 - I can live with that.
Caudalie Beauty Elixir €7.99/30ml (£11.50 Feel Unique)
My holy grail! How I love this
aromatic mist. Moisture in a spray and radiance every time. I have a large one on my dressing table but picked up this mini
one for on-the-go.
Klorane Floral water eye makeup remover €4.50/100 (£6 Feel Unique)
When I saw this on Lisa
Eldridge's list of French beauty buys, on my list it went. Enriched with
soothing and decongesting cornflower, it effectively removes all traces of
panda eyes and helps prevent the puff.
Klorane Nettle shampoo oily hair €5.95/200ml (£7 Escentual)
In my first French haul I picked
up the Klorane dry shampoo, decent enough, but it didn’t surpass the power
house that is Batiste so this time I thought I’d try a wash-in shampoo. I’m all
over anything that offers to combat greasy roots. I’ve used this twice this
week and I’m very impressed. Seems to really give my hair a good clean without
weighing it down.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar duo plus – spot treatment €8.78/40ml (£15.50 Escentual)
This appears on everyone’s French
beauty wish list so I had to see what all the fuss was about. A targeted
treatment for oily, blemish prone skin.
NUXE Reve de Miel Baume – 6.90 euros/15ml (£9.50 Escentual)
The ultimate lip balm! It has a
natural matte finish, lasts for hours and smells like lemon curd... yum!
Already kicking myself for not buying more!
And finally, I picked up these completely unnecessary but extremely cute bamboo cotton buds €1.30, simply because I knew they'd look the part on my dressing table.
Total Spend €104 = £77
City Pharma 26 Rue du Four, 75006
Paris (St-Germain Quarter)
That's an impressive haul! I have the Caudalie Vinoperfect serum and absolutely love it for spring and summer because it feels so fresh on the skin. Hope you'll like it just as much!
