Avene, LRP, A313 and sunblock (but I prefer Japanese and Korean sunblock)

Save money and go to Korea.

If you use Caudalie products, they're much cheaper in France. Same with LRP, Avene, Embryolisse, etc.

Is that true? If so, very exciting. I order my LRP from Care to Beauty, but I’d love not to have to pay the shipping and tariffs….

NP bumping this question. Is this right? We will actually have access to better sunscreen in the US next year?

Yes.

I like to get Mustela cream in France. It’s a higher percentage of ectoin, an ingredient my sensitive skin loves.

I love Nuxe products. And since college I've always bought Klorane shampoo when I go to Europe, switching from camomile for highlights when I was in my 20s to a version for colored hair these days.

SVR jelly sunblock- it is so good. Also Biafine-can also get tretinoin over the counter.

I loved all the Caudalie and La Roche Posay products I picked up and I haven't seen the exact formulas in the U.S. Maybe they name them differently? I'd just pick up a range of things for fun.

You can get azeliac acid w/o a prescription

Google. There are literally hundreds (maybe thousands) of social media and blog posts about this.

Nuxe smells sooo nice and there are lots of products, including the oils

Caudalie is much much cheaper there- I always grab a couple of the the Vinoperfect serums. All Caudalie is much cheaper/more variety.

I love the Vichy deodorants but I do you can get that here now.

And yes sunscreens are the big one because you can’t get the ingredients here. LRP UV Mune.

Ask a pharmacist if you have an issue! One thing that is fun is that every little pharmacy has different stuff. My family got sick of me ducking into every one!

I'm 55 years old so looking for recommendations for "mature" skin. Thanks.
