French pharmacy “must buys”

7 replies

On a quick work trip and I’ll have 20 mins to pop into a French pharmacy.

What do I need to buy? Probably Bioderma eye make up remover.

Any other recommendations please? Love it in there as everything is super reasonable, but it’s busy and packed with products and I don’t know what to get 😂

First shop haul. Slightly hampered by the many potions I’ve just opened in my Harrods BAC and the 100ml limit on airport hand luggage.

Now that you've started a thread there's the 'Similar threads' list at the bottom of this screen - maybe have a look at some of those threads for recommendations?

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Water Eye Waterproof Makeup Remover for Sensitive Eyes and Lips 125ML - Boots

Whenever I try French pharmacy I find that the same items can be bought here way much cheaper. The same remover in Paris was 17 Eur, but you can get points and some better deals here in Boots.

This obviously relates to the most popular brands, e.g. Eucerin, LRP, Bioderma, ROC, etc. There might be some hidden gems which I'd be happy to learn about

Embryolisse, Nuxe ... the gold or pink l'huile prodigieuse are my favourites.

SVR suncream. Fragonard perfume (only from Fragonard stores).

Thanks all. Went to two pharmacies today. They’re just more atttactive than a Boots or Superdrug… and I think shopping in € makes it seem like Monopoly money rather than real 😂

Lots of items were really reasonable. Bioderma eye makeup remover was €6 for 100ml.

Obsessed with lip balms and glosses generally. Love both the Nuxe and Avene ones I picked up!
