Skincare is the most important step in a French woman's beauty routine. A smooth and moist skin is always the key to a perfect, natural "like nothing" makeup of the "Emily in Paris" ladies.

French women use very little foundation, instead they are very focused on cleansing their skin and use a lot of lotion, eye cream and serum every day.
