The Country: France
The Product: Arthrodont Toothpaste
The Reason: The first thing Fournier nabs in Paris is uncut cotton (it's approximately 1000 times softer than the cotton here, and will "change your life"). Second, she buys this toothpaste -- "we have a tendency to go more natural [with ingredients] here," she says of France, which is why she prefers this toothpaste. (Plus, there's something about the bought-in-France aspect makes a typically boring beauty item seem ultra chic.)

The Product: Clarins Hand Cream
The Reason: "My next favorite thing is something you are going to say 'But wait, I can get that here!'" says Shays. "Ah oui madame, that is correct, but the Clarins hand cream I buy I absolutely have to have sent from France. Tell me I'm crazy, but something feels different about the homegrown stuff." It contains a superhydrating blend of shea butter and sesame oil extracts, along with myrrh to help strengthen nails. According to Shays, this is "hands down the best hand cream you will ever use."
