French Pharmacie Beauty Haul!
So once again I am super ecstatic over a French Pharmacie Beauty Haul, around this time last year my mom went to France and she had to go back again, thus another list from me.
I have tried Bioderma Micellaire Solution before since it is available in Canada, and loved it but its definitely still cheaper in France so I wanted a big bottle. Then I have been very intrigued by serums recently and although I didn't do much research decided on the Caudalie Vinosource Serum SOS, I also have been very interested in Dry Oils and have seen the Nuxe one around so I decided on the Multipurpose Dry Oil. It is a very fragrant product, however I really enjoy the smell and love how it feels on the skin. Finally I also wanted to try the Caudalie Lip Conditioner which I also am enjoying because it has a subtle scent and works very well before applying lipstick. Then the little SVR is a small sample from the store.
I had no interest in skincare until I learned about it in school and although I don't love it as much as makeup, I now know how important it is and France is definitely the place to go for excellent skincare.
Many if not all of this is available in Canada and the US however it is more expensive here, I would love to know if any of you have tried any of these products and what you think! Or what is on your wishlists because I know even if I know I don't have access to products I still have a wishlist in my head!

Produits Français

A couple of days ago I tweeted that I was pee pants excited, and I still am. So, my mom had to go to France, and of course I had to ask for a little somethin somethin from a pharmacie.
Essiebutton and Lisa Eldridge both have put up videos somewhat recently about products from France, and like most international people I just admired it and moved on, because the prices are way to high to buy without trying in Canada.
So when my mom said she was going all I could think of was the Caudalie Eau de Beaute, that many of bloggers are raving about. I love it, although the smell is strong, I personally really really like it, it is very minty and really refreshing to breath in. I think I'll make a separate post cause I really do love it.
Then, this was definitely inspired by Estee, the NUXE reve de miel lip balm. I put this on before bed and my lips are extremely soft and they still feel moisturized when I wake up, it lasts forever on your lips. Normally I hate citrus, if someone sprays air freshener or cleans with citrus scent I go mental because I dislike it so much. But the scent of this, although lemony is very sweet. This as well as the Beauty Elixir come in glass containers, which I really enjoy because they just seem better and I love packaging.
Then the travel set, includes Caudalie: Gentle Conditioning Shampoo, Shower Gel, Body Lotion, Quenching Sorbet Creme and Cleansing Water. I haven't tried any of them but am really excited to.
Then because my mom clearly wasn't from France the lady was super nice and gave her a bunch of samples!
Which include: Caudalie Night Cream, Bioderma Shower Gel, Avene Emollient Balm, Bioderma Suncream and Topicrem 3D Sparkling Body Milk.
Then my mom just brought back the Eiffel tower filled with candy.
I just had to share, because I was really excited, if you own any of this stuff tell me if you like it, hate it, what you use it for? and if you don't what is something you can't get in the country you live in that you lust after, I think I would have a mile long list of things from the UK...
