If you’re a regular on the blog you’ll know all about my obsession for French skincare. They take it very seriously, they spend time on it, they use it as a tiny bit of luxury in their day. They just *get it*. I finally recorded my French beauty haul so have a nosey below!
Okay so I went a bit wild. This was over 3 different cities, does that make it better? *tumbleweed*
Watch the video for more details, including some initial thoughts and swatches of the make up. I’ve put all the links in the description bar of the video if you click through to YouTube, but I’ll also put them at the end of this post just in case.
French Beauty Haul
It will take me a while to get through all of this, especially the skincare, so if you want me to review something in particular please let me know in the comments and I’ll try to prioritise it.
If you want to see my Paris birthday vlog then you can watch it HERE.
I hope you enjoyed my French beauty haul, I had so much fun filming this video 🙂

I thought you might be interested in this Canadian brand. They are 100% organic and I’m really impressed with their ingredients, which as a fellow Rosacea sufferer you’ll know are important. I’m await an order right now. Oh, and their prices are great. http://www.shopbattysbath.com/
