Seems like you can't go wrong with French sunscreens (La Roche-Posay's and Bioderma's options get name-checked a lot on Reddit) — and this one is particularly popular.

If you're talking about French skin care, this cult-favorite cream is sure to come up. "A lot of makeup artists keep it in their makeup kit because it doesn't have a lot of common irritants and works well on a lot of different models," explains skincarescience4. "A little goes a long way too! You can use it to sheer out foundation too to get a lighter coverage." Other enthusiastic users add that the cream is great for imparting skin with a natural glow, while also acting as a good primer.

Here's another French pharmacy pick that has achieved superstar status on Reddit (and everywhere else). There are a lot of things that cement its holy grail status: MadameRoyale7 gushes that it "removes EVERYTHING without drying at all." CheesiestPopcorn agrees, saying, "I'd been happily using Garnier's micellar, but now that I bought this I'm never going back. It gets off eye makeup with barely a rub."

This multi-purpose balm is definitely well-loved amongst the skin care fanatics of Reddit. "It's magic," writes mullindoll. "It's a thick, moisturizing cream that's designed for repair." She notes that she uses it to soothe her skin after using harsher chemical exfoliants. Plus, you can even use it on minor wounds: As sstevo_19 says, "It helps heal any cuts or scratches on my arms and legs."
