I have been devoted to Pharmacie Anglais for many years. Their prices may sometimes be a euro or…read moretwo higher (or lower) than that famous pharmacie on Rue Bonaparte. It's not a huge place, but they seemingly have everything and they are dedicated to helping you tap into what makes your skin happy. Hopefully Lucie is there when you go. If she is, she'll ask you what kind of climate you live in. How much are you in the sun? Do you exfoliate? I never feel like I'm being sold, more like I'm discovering the products that work for me, for my budget and for my lifestyle. Even when it's crowded, it doesn't feel like an Olympic event to get to the cash registers. And they open early and close late every day of the week.
Looking for the cult favorites? They have them, just not a whole wall of them. Ditto shiny tubes of Marvis toothpaste, Bioderma in every form, bronzer, argon oil, cosmetics, body care products, Nuxe, Caudalie, etc. etc. They run insane specials that make you want to stock up, not that I would buy 6 hand creams at one time. Nope, not me.
If you're wanting to post a haul video on YouTube, you already know where you want to go. If you're after quality advice and personal attention, Pharmacie Anglais will make you, and your skin, very happy.
