    You should also check out Pharmacie Monge Notre Dame. I found the prices to be better, and I liked the range of brands too.
  • Thoroughly enjoyed this type of video. You can do more of these.
  • @chlomo2618
    That was fun. It's great to see snippets of your life in Paris. Thanks for sharing!
  • Gosh Lauren . What a great video as I really loved seeing you walk around the streets. Thank you , you lucky thing 👌👌👌😘
  • @thelidiaedit
    Reve de miel en pot est le meilleure baume à lèvres de la vie. I haven’t tried the lip oil yet, but I swear when you try the reve de miel in a pot, you’ll never go back to anything else. Nothing!
  • @dorothylists
    There’s also Pharmacie Monge near Arènes de Lutèce, which does very good offers and more high end brands too, but is also always packed. Pharmacie des Archives in the Marais does good offers and is never too busy (it still does Embryolisse, which CityPharma no longer stock); ditto the one in the lower level of the Les Halles shopping centre. But I often stay on rue St D and love the (full price) pharmacies on it for the sensible advice they give.
  • @natayakhan3929
    Hi Lauren, thanks for your lovely videos, I do enjoy them very much. I always visit City Pharma every single time I’m in Paris, it’s a must for me. Bon continuation ! ❤️
  • @Ali_Rois
    French farmacy skincare! Yesss, I've been on the lookout for this one ❤
  • @debs5531
    thanks for sharing your City Pharma experience and savings. I also had the City Pharma in Paris several weeks ago while visiting. It was extremely busy then too. I was looking for Embryolisse but they don't carry it. Fortunately I found it in another pharmacy and can get it here in Canada at Shoppers Drug Mart. If you are over 55 years old you can get it and the other French brands you mentioned for 20% every Thursday at this Canadian pharmacy chain!!!
  • @lilimamo
    I loved it 😍 Keep up you lovely and spontaneous personality ❤️
  • I have always wanted to visit City Pharma after watching some videos on YouTube. The prices seem to be excellent as well as the variety of products. I think I will go by train with an empty suitcase 😅😅😅 I really enjoy exploring Paris with you Lauren. Such fun to hear about your experiences and views.
  • @drinab3430
    Lauren you are a breath of fresh air today and just what the doctor ordered - thanks so much. 😊
  • @mansoor3159
    Lauren I really really missed your videos so so so much and I am so so so happy that you have posted a new video and I wish you have a lovely weekend🥹🥹♥️
  • @flatironnewyork
    i had heard/ read about Citypharma and came across it by chance on my trip last month. it was CROWDED but the checkout line was pretty fast. I didn't realize that it was popular bc of lower prices - i through it was just the city-wide sales happening at the time. I usually like the pharmacie in Forum Les Halles bc it's huge, but now that you did the price comps....I may need to brave Citypharma again next time I'm lucky enough to visit Paris! (FYI I bought Caudalie dark spot cream, Klorane shampoo and Botot toothpaste)
  • @melgirlau5277
    Loved this video thank you Lauren. I would love to see more vlogs of your day to day life in Paris. Where do you buy your groceries for example..in a supermarket or a fresh food market.. your hairdresser..where have you had the best coffee..the best patisserie..do you ever go to the marche aux puces..anything like that would be great
  • @deborah972
    Hello lauren love your videos interesting skincare routine ❤ 😊 xx
  • @destinydeems
    It's so nice to be out on the streets in Paris with you! Enjoyed your efforts. I'm loyal to Weleda.
  • @fleurdixoncoote
    Loved this! That reve de miel packaging is so sweet. I’ve got the one in the pot. Love a French pharmacy :-). They’re called cents btw lol. Not that I’ve ever heard anyone say that….just 3 euro 24 or whatever.
  • Loved this, you did make me laugh. I always thought Monoprix was a good deal obviously not! Would enjoy seeing you out and about more and to know what you do in France, also to see your whole wardrobe and how you store everything x
  • @thelidiaedit
    You’ll love the Huile Prodigieuse Or - it’s been my summer go-to for more than 10 years.
