French pharmacies must haves | ALI ANDREEA

[@thehonestskincare]

Thanks for sharing this! Super interesting to know people’s fav products from french pharmacies. But I have to stay, as a skincare and cosmetic science specialist myself that there are a couple of things that you mentioned that are not entirely correct: 1/ Bioderma Sensibio Micrllar water doesnt destroy your skin barrier, it doesnt rip off the oils. Its formula actually is super respectful with the skin barrier. Amazing for all skin types, specially sensitive. Great idea though to rinse it off after! 2/ Retinol is not the only ingrediente proven to improve skin texture. It’s one of them (and it’s a fantastic one of course!) but there are many ways to improve texture. 3/ Hyaluronic acid doesnt actually improve skin texture. It deeply hidrates skin as its molecules are as sponges attracting and retaining water inside the skin. So the ampoules would be a great hydration boosting treatment but no so much to improve texture. Hope my comments help to educate your audience with the right information. Thank you :)

I love your vlogging and life style videos and Paris streets😍 please post more of this ❤️

[@susanbowman3865]

One day I’ll visit Paris but until then I’ll live vicariously through Andreea Ali. Oui oui! Much love mademoiselle and kisses for sweet baby Eden ❤️😘🥰 Edit: I just remembered, one thing that will help your hair loss is collagen supplements which also help the skin, nails and joints. I’m hoping that you can get them in Paris. The brand I use in America is made by Biotrust which carries many safe and effective supplements. 🤗

[@claudiadgusmao]

Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Water is literally the only cleanser that doesn't strip my skin. It was recommended by my dermatologist for my very sensitive skin and I love it, I've been using it daily for years with no problem eheh My skin reacts badly to tap water so I actually use the micellar water on a cotton pad (usually more than one, until the skin is clean) and after "rinse it" with a cotton pad with thermal spring water. I love all the other products you mentioned too!

[@gypsybelle637]

That color blue, is stunning on you! It's so fun , for me when you bring us along on your city trips. It's like I'm getting to shop and travel, and hang out with a girl friend! Love , love theses trips! Thank you.

[@jemstar7592]

yay! I LOVE french pharmacy hauls. My absolute go-to's are always the Caudalie Vinoperfect Serum, Bioderma Micellar Water, Embryolisse Lait Creme Concentre, laroche posay anthelios (holy grail) and Avene Eau Thermale. Happy to see products here I haven't tried yet.

[@olgaotherstories8355]

All the products u listed r my faves as well....somehow I always surprised that Lierac products almost never mentioned and very few from Nuxe and they have amaizing products. Lierac Facial balm cleancer is amaizing...no one talks about!!!

[@jemstar7592]

[@petramelichova4491]

Embryolisse Lait Crème is my new fav cream, too. 👌🙂

I love anything, Caudelie! 😊

[@jenniferdobyns8940]

Motherhood obviously agrees with you, you are glowingly gorgeous. Love your vlogs, you could be buying cleaning products or paper towel, and I would watch! I love the La Roche Posay cicaplast balm!😂🥰

[@catoakleymusic4366]

Loved this video!!! Please do more of this sort of Parisian lifestyle beauty content. So unique! 😊

[@SB-qn4st]

Hey you, a BIG FAN from India here!!!🤗 I have always been a very eyeliner + lip balm kind of a person, and never really had/applied too much makeup. Now as I am growing up, my skin is changing and I am getting into better skincare and makeup. In this world, where you tube is filled with tonnes of 'influencers' teaching you ridiculously bold and fake-looking makeup, you are a breath of fresh air! I am a newbie in the makeup world and I ONLY trust you makeup advice. You work on half-face of two different makeups is BOMB for people like me who are just getting started on their makeup journey. Invaluable really - you are the elder sister everyone should have:-) Pls pls pls never stop guiding us. Love and hugs from the other side of the world! 🌟

[@trancegirl9433]

Thanks to you I started to use La Roche Posay Cicaplast Balm and now I buy this product all the time!!!!! It is like the best of the best. I totally love it!!!! I use it even in summer, and I like to use it on the face, hands, body. Also I love the cicaplast, the special one for the lips. I had a period with very dry lips and this balm literally, saved my lips! I am happy you did this video! I will try other products you told about here, too! Love you! ❤️

[@NHOO628]

Rene furterer triphasic,the product which saved my hair,I can swear above the product!!!AMAZING!

[@aida_7883]

Just watching you strolling through the streets of Paris with your gorgeous style and energy inspires me so much - love this kind of content💕♥️

[@rachelweinstein9008]

@Aida Comic: I totally agree!

[@magdalenabulmaga7264]

Oh, how I miss Paris! ❤️❤️❤️ I have to say I only use French dermocosmetics and I love them! My skin is dry and sensitive so these products fit me perfectly. Thank you for the hyaluronic acid suggestions!

[@dmarkey4360]

I love this! We had tickets to come to Paris and London and Covid hit and all the shut downs. This was our dream trip next spring we are planning to try again. Thank you for taking us with you. ❤❤❤

[@edinaarora4821]

Hi dear, I wait for the Sunday because of your video. There are products I only buy because you recommend and I'm never disappointed, I love them. Thanks to you. You know how I came years ago to you? Randomly popped up your video, I saw your lovely face, ohhh and that voice, since that day I follow you and love your videos. You are honest and funny and OMG I love when you sing. You are a beautiful human being. Bless you and your family.. Edina

[@i-stein]

Thank you so much for all the recommendations! ❤️ I gave birth 4 months ago and the hair loss is really affecting me badly although I take hair vitamins and iron. I just want to cry every time I comb my hair… so I ordered that treatment you recommended, fingers crossed it will get better in few weeks!

[@zaria5785]

Congratulations on giving birth to your baby! Just know that your hormones will take about 1 year to adjust. So be patient with yourself and how your body is transitioning mama. Save those tears, it will get better. But I’m so glad you’re already being proactive about how you want to look and feel. Your baby will notice that energy. 💖

[@charlottec7875]

I love watching everything you do! Can you also share products you use to remove your makeup especially eye makeup and mascara? Also hope to see a makeup video with an Asian model. Thank you!

[@juliepopescu6877]

Best wishes and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your aunt! Beautiful person, great age! After your video with her I feel like I know her a little and now that you share your plans and surprise, it feels like family to me. Kinda 😊. Safe trip, have fun, enjoy the time with your family. All the best to you all! 💞 P.s.: Aussi, Cicaplast baume pour les lèvres et Cicaplast pour les mains ont fait des merveilles en plein hiver. Great products!

[@katherineandini5962]

I always stock up on a few items from the pharmacies when I’m in France. I love the LaRoche Posay anthelios sunscreen & their Lipikar range rescued my hands when I developed contact dermatitis!

[@aeolia80]

I'm very glad she mentioned to rinse the l'eau micellaire, because it has surfactants in them that when left on the skin can cause dermatitis. I live in France now, and I've had a huge problem with the hard water in Ile-de-France since I've been here (it'll be 2 years in September), and a lot of French people tell me to use this stuff as a toner.............. nope, don't ever do it, don't listen to them, the packaging may say it's ok as a no rinse product but that is not true, you MUST rinse this stuff off. When the product was originally formulated maybe ok to not rinse it off, it was originally intended for very sensitive skin that can't handle the hard water here, but the product has changed a lot since then and is now more as a cleanser, and if it can remove my waterproof mascara, which it can, no way in hell should it be left on the skin, lol

[@cindybarraco5815]

I’ve been using Cicaplast for over a yr now & such a great product… Love Pharmacy shopping, also the Pharmacy’s in Italy were fantastic

[@laila.h.90]

I absolutely LOVE your Paris vlogs 💕 you have a soothing and a loving aura and it shines through your videos. Sending you, Alex and baby Eden much love ❤️

Argh from Northern California! I am so over the area I live in and I am in my backyard…the grass died in 2020😩 and I am ready to just run, run faraway to another land, that is not America-that is just my feeling personally!- Anyway, thank you Andreea for another great vlog about life in France…Life always seems most grand in other places…as the saying goes “WE WANT WHAT WE CAN”T HAVE “CURRENTLY OR AT THE MOMENT” or WE DON”T WHAT WE DONE HAVE” oh boy, life! Anyway, I wish you lots of abundances, blessings and greatly health and love to your family and you. Be safe.

Love Bioderma for taking eyes make-up off (I have sensitive eyes and usually balms I’m using don’t take everything off!); la Roche Posay is top! Followed your advice and bought yesterday Huda Beauty concelear et Givenchy powder ! Tried just once but seem to be excellent both ! Thanks for the good advices🫶🏻

What I wouldn’t give to live in Paris ♥️ I so enjoy these videos! I shopped in that pharmacy last time I was in Paris. A dream!

[@andreareisenberger7030]

Which farmacy is this? I didn't find the reference

[@DulceN]

I’m a Spaniard living in the USA for 32 years and how I wished that pharmacies (a.k.a. drugstores) here carried similar products… I’m watching this video on March 2023 and just ordered the triphase treatment for hair loss. It seems a lot more practical and user friendly than minoxidil (Rogaine), but it all depends on how it works (or doesn’t) on me. I miss strolling around Paris and many other European cities I visited in my younger years. Btw, we do have music at drugstores here. 😊

[@skittlejack562]

I love the Water Wipes! I also use them to clean all of my handbags. They never leave a stain and even take off makeup residue on my bags.

[@Magpieme98]

Andreea, I just discovered your channel and I’m so happy I have! I’ve been watching a few of your videos and I’ve learned so much in a short time. I am 50 and love makeup, but I think I wear too much sometimes. I love your natural approach and detailed explanation. I so enjoy your personality and warmth. Thank you for sharing! 😘 from Mary in Florida 🌺

Lovely products. I’m in 🇳🇴 and luckily we are able to get a lot of these products and brands here too now. It took a while though. But of course the French farmasies always have some hidden gems.

Hi Andrea! I have just returned from Les Landes where I enjoyed a wonderful sun and sports holiday. Normally I order pharmacy products online, but when I'm in France I buy on the spot! I am a big fan of the Claudalie brand. So good for your skin and organic... For my body I am a fan of Topicrem, SVR, Avene. Love, love, love it! ❤

[@daniellem.gibson4658]

LOVE LOVE LOVE your outfit! So chic! By the way, can you tell us ladies how to do our makeup so that sunglasses don’t ruin it? Every time I wear sunglasses it leaves a line under my eyes and removes the makeup. My touchups look terrible after it happens too!

[@ilonna9623]

Cicaplast is great for a baby as well: rashes of unknown origin, nappy rask- miracle. For adults to seed up healing, when I over do it with retinol and acids😉 and last but not least for skn chafing - forget all the specific sticks etc. I love french pharmacy products and always happy to learn what is new as my access is limited now😭. You look great in this outfit Andrea😘

[@Mmmmkaaay]

La Roche Posay products are a godsend. Their day moisturizer with SPF 30 is my go-to and at $20 a tube, a total steal.

La Roche Posay have lots of marvellous serums and body lotion-with niacinamide, retinol, hyala B4 serum

[@luxeford547]

Both La Roche-Posay products are staples for me. The sunscreen is literally the only one I use (both the fluid and the crème) and the Cicaplast is simply a must have.

[@elirich3145]

You will be sad to hear that their production is being halted due to a hale storm last week that hit the area around the city of Vichy, where the products are manufactured.

What is an equivalent to Cicaplast in the US?
