13 Best French Beauty Products

We rounded up the best French beauty products (that we’ve written about before), including La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser, Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré, Bioderma Sensibio, Caudalíe Beauty Elixir, and Dior Forever Concealer.
“This has the same milky, non-foaming texture as Cetaphil and CeraVe, but is visibly better and faster at dissolving makeup and dirt — clean rinsing, no need to ‘tissue off,’ and no need for double-cleansing. It takes literally just a few rubs to break down makeup — Toleriane does the job! My face is left sparkling clean with no residue, and without feeling tight or dry.”
Despite briefly appearing in Sephora sometime around 2004, Bourjois is still mostly unavailable in the U.S. — at least now there’s — and the brand remains fairly unknown Stateside. But since I’ve lived in Berlin for the past four years and find myself passing often enough through a French duty-free store on connecting flights, it’s easy to keep to my lone lifelong beauty commitment. Its scarcity Stateside also comes with another added advantage: It’s proven itself a great gift. High-quality, European, and unfamiliar, several very well received tubes come home with me every year at Christmas.
