    Really enjoyed your video Lauren, like someone else wrote - you are a breath of fresh air, thanks for posting. You should definitely do more walks, we are over there in October
    & staying in the 7th as I too love that area of Paris. Aussies from Melbourne.

      Hi there Jill, thank you so much, I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! 🙏 I'll certainly try to share some more, particularly now we're in autumn which is a lovely time here in Paris 😍 I'm so happy to hear you love the 7th too, one of the best areas here in the capital 😉 Sending love down to Melbourne, and wishing you a lovely spring season in Oz 😘

    There’s also Pharmacie Monge near Arènes de Lutèce, which does very good offers and more high end brands too, but is also always packed. Pharmacie des Archives in the Marais does good offers and is never too busy (it still does Embryolisse, which CityPharma no longer stock); ditto the one in the lower level of the Les Halles shopping centre. But I often stay on rue St D and love the (full price) pharmacies on it for the sensible advice they give.

    Reve de miel en pot est le meilleure baume à lèvres de la vie. I haven’t tried the lip oil yet, but I swear when you try the reve de miel in a pot, you’ll never go back to anything else. Nothing!

    thanks for sharing your City Pharma experience and savings. I also had the City Pharma in Paris several weeks ago while visiting. It was extremely busy then too. I was looking for Embryolisse but they don't carry it. Fortunately I found it in another pharmacy and can get it here in Canada at Shoppers Drug Mart. If you are over 55 years old you can get it and the other French brands you mentioned for 20% every Thursday at this Canadian pharmacy chain!!!

      It's interesting you mentioned Embryolisse as I walked past a pharmacy near my apartment today (it's not one I usually visit) and they did have a poster for this brand in the window! I'm happy to hear you're able to find their products back home, and even better that you have a discount available too ❤ sending love over to Canada!

    Hi Emma, i have a question not related to today's video, i am very keen on interior esthetics and i heard that the French love to have dried flowers in their homes so i would love to hear what typical french homes/apartaments are like. Lovely video as always, love a lot of french skincare especially caudalie, L'occitane, Mixa. There is some nice vive about their farmacies too. Regards from a Polish lady living in Dublin.:)

    • @LaurenGraceHarding
      @LaurenGraceHarding  2 месяца назад +2

      That's interesting to hear, I wasn't aware that the French love to have dried flowers in their homes. I'll ask around and see what people say here locally. We certainly have a lot of florists here in Paris, so fresh flowers are always available which is equally as lovely. Thanks also for sharing the brands you like - I love l'Occitane as well, especially their hand creams, absolutely divine 😍 Sending love over to you in Dublin, happy Sunday!

    i had heard/ read about Citypharma and came across it by chance on my trip last month. it was CROWDED but the checkout line was pretty fast. I didn't realize that it was popular bc of lower prices - i through it was just the city-wide sales happening at the time. I usually like the pharmacie in Forum Les Halles bc it's huge, but now that you did the price comps....I may need to brave Citypharma again next time I'm lucky enough to visit Paris! (FYI I bought Caudalie dark spot cream, Klorane shampoo and Botot toothpaste)

    My favourite French skincare products are by Caudalie - especially their body lotion, shower gel and sorbet facial moisturizer. I discovered their line while vacationing in France. They were SUPER low priced in the French drug store in Provence. But back home here in Canada Csudalie is incredibly expensive.

    • @LaurenGraceHarding
      @LaurenGraceHarding  2 месяца назад +1

      Hi Sharon, thanks so much for sharing - great to hear about your favourite French skincare products ❤ I've tried two products from Caudalie and loved them - a moisturiser during my first winter (Vinohydra) and also their pink shower gel, they were both lovely so I understand why you adore the brand! Have you tried out their "beauty elixir" mist? I've seen this product a few times on other RUclips videos so I've always been curious about it. Sending love over to you in Canada! 😘

    Well you struck gold and savings in pharmacy. Looks like you might be loyal customer for city pharma for cheap products and maybe prescriptions. Sometimes the best discoveries can be found by accident or unknown. Like groceries Lidl in my neck of the woods is my go to that I discovered two or three years ago been loyal since. Let’s go one step forward Alaska Airlines I liked when leaving Seattle to NYC which was American Airlines codeshare thing. Been loving the airline since in terms of service, so yea sometimes discoveries happen out of nowhere. It’s all about getting out there and see what’s there. You did well with the vlog keep going like how to transit (maybe after the Olympics), order baguettes, what’s cuisine your tried that was trippy etc. I think spontaneous videos or short (now being pushed) is something unique and more of you
