This summer, I was able to visit Paris for a work trip. When I was making a list of all of the things I wanted to do while I was there, there was one item that sat extremely high – and it’s probably not what you think. No, I didn’t want to visit any museums or shop for luxury items – I wanted to check out the French pharmacies.
I had visited the city once prior in 2017, but it was during the winter months and I spent most of my time sitting in my hotel room eating room service. Between my first trip and this recent one, my skin-care game has gotten way better. For years, I had been hearing about a product that was touted as the French girl’s secret to perfect skin: A313 Vitamin A Pommade ($39).
If you have spent any time on skin-care TikTok or skin-care subreddits, you’re probably familiar with A313 or you at least recognize the unassuming white tube that looks like it could be housing diaper rash cream. However, the pomade, which is loved by celebrities like Sienna Miller and Sophia Bush, is actually a game-changer.
