I am traveling to Nice, France at the end of August. Do you know where I can buy Auteur skincare products there? Also, Biologique Resersche. Auteur from Germany, BR from France……. Thank you!

YES/OUI, CityPharma on rue Four is FABULOUS, as I have been shopping there for decades! More than highly recommend it! The crowd comments are interesting, because EVERYONE is there for the SAME exact reason WE ALL are, so their GREAT prices. TOO crowded, then just go another time. It used to be even MORE “tight” in there many years ago, before they renovated!! Thanks for mentioning the one across the street from Bon Marche. Thanks/merci!

Thanks very much for all your information! Just wanted to let you know that some, just some, of the cosmetic lines that you suggest have ingredients that NONE of us should be using.
For example Klorane, and some others. Please look into this for yourself/for your own protection.

Who doesn’t love French skincare brands? Frankly, Avene and La Roche Posay are two of the best and their prices are so cheap for the quality they offer. I wish everyone would try them.

In reply to Lynn. Hi Lynn, The eye patches are oozing with the product but they should be well saturated and feel wet and cold. They typically dry out as you wear them once they are exposed to air and you have been wearing them for 15-20 minutes. You may have had a dried out batch which has never happened to me before. If you purchased them directly from Klorane, I would reach out with your concerns and try to get a replacement. xo

I just tried the Klorane eye patches- they seem to have very little “product” or moisture- although I do like the smooth feel of the patch. Is this typical, or did I possibly get a dried out batch? Curious about your experience. Thanks! (Love your blog!)

Is City Pharma on NE corner in the 6th? Two floors, mobbed, but great variety. I bought Nuxe faves there, as hard to find her in NYC area. Now looking for LaNeige…..

This is great! I love French pharmacy brands (Avene and Bioderma are my favorites). Avene’s retrinal serum is amazing! I’ve only ever been to Paris once when I was 20, but dream of going back and wandering around without much of a plan.

I was at City Pharma this past October. I went early in the morning and no crowds. Staff beyond super helpful. I use the Caudalie eye serum upon recommendation from a friend. Love it. I am a big fan of Nuxe and Avene fan. Thanks for your blogs. Full of great info.

Thank you so much for writing this segment.
I just moved from beautiful San Diego to Scottsdale az, and is having skin issues from dry skin to eczema. This was very helpful.

What do you know about Gemology? It’s a French brand.
I was in Paris last week and visited Citypharma for the first time. Wow! Lines moved fast. Impressive.
