What comes first to your mind when you think about French women? Is it their effortless style, the undone hair or that \u201cje ne sais quoi\u201d feeling they give off? For many of it\u2019s their perfect skin that captures attention and stays in our minds. We all want to know how they achieve that perfect glow and what are French skin care secrets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

French skincare secrets<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n


\n<\/span>They say that in French families, skin care routines are passed down to little girls from their mothers and grandmothers before them. It\u2019s a tradition that teaches women from a very young age to take care of their skin, so that they keep looking fresh and beautiful when they are older. That’s why French skin care focuses more on skin care products rather than make up \u2014 they don’t cover up imperfections, but treat them in a healthy way.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most popular and quintessential French skin care routine consists of three main steps : cleansing, toning and moisturizing. It\u2019s been that way since long ago. For example, one of the most well-known women in French history \u2014 queen Marie-Antoinette swore by her special facial cleanser. It was called \u201cEau Cosmetique de Pigeon\u201d ( you read it right, it was made from pigeons ) and she used it every morning as a part of her beauty routine. She would often use a face mask that could be done from very simple ingredients that most of us have at home : cognac, lemon, one egg and powdered milk. Each element was intended to keep the skin clear and glowing. Even today, 200 years later, many French women use this mask at home. Bathing was another french skincare secret that Marie-Antoinette loved and that other\u2019s copied. It was popular to bathe in milk, when you were young, and in wine, when you got older.<\/span><\/p>\n

Back in the 19th century, women were obsessed with pale complexion and already very much aware of the damage sunlight causes to the skin, so while there were no sun creams that we have today, there were still gloves and umbrellas that ladies used to cover themselves up from the sun. By 1850, women began using \u201c<\/span>Cr\u00e8me C\u00e9leste\u201d<\/span><\/i> which was a mixture of white wax, spermaceti, sweet almond oil, and rosewater. It hid blemishes and provided needed moisture for the skin. It would later become a cold cream and be used as a cosmetic remover.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the 20th century many things in beauty changed and trends took a big turn. In 1923, Coco Chanel was aboard on a yacht in Cannes and got sunburned. When she returned home, she had this bronzed skin and so tanning became a huge must for women of that time. Just like that, we went from a pale, white skin to a sun kissed look.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, with new discoveries in cosmetics and medicine, many new products were invented. One of them being sun-protecting creams. French women enjoy the sun and many of them don’t care that much about daily use of protective creams. The new generation of French girls, however, are now informed about how damaging the sun can be, so they incorporate UV protection into their routine. They would either use a separate product or a moisturizer that contains UV protection filters \u2014 like our Defense Cream, for a clearer, more radiant skin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moisturizing is a very crucial step in a skin care routine \u00e0 la fran\u00e7aise. Aromatic and therapeutic oils are preferred by French ladies, because of their absorption and light feeling they leave on the skin. That’s why many facial creams generously use oils, combined with other important ingredients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to blemishes and acne, French women always seem to have it under control. Even in the 17th century they used a \u201cwhite powder\u201d that was made out of pearls and dissolved in lemon juice or vinegar to keep their faces light-reflecting and skin tone even. Today, French skincare secrets may have changed but the base stays the same \u2014 women still use pearl-containing products. However, they don\u2019t do it to literally whiten the face, but rather to brighten their complexion and fade redness and acne spots.<\/span><\/p>\n

French women are all about quality over quantity. Unlike some other females from different countries, they don’t like to change up their skin care routine every month. When they find what works best for them, they use it till the end. That’s why they are very generous when it comes to buying products. They tend to spend more on good quality high-end articles as they see their skin as an investment. Simplicit\u00e9 et qualit\u00e9 \u2014 this is the moto French women live by when it comes to their skincare secrets.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
