I honestly love learning about how French women take care of certain parts of their lives.
I recently wrote on how they take care of their homes and it honestly impressed me.
They seem to have this amazing ability to cultivate healthy mindsets surrounding the different parts of their lives.
And I’ve personally found that when you take care of your mindset, and develop healthy life-giving habits, it really does make your life so much more enjoyable.
You’re not stressing over certain tasks that need to be done, you’re just seeing it as a way to take care of yourself.
And because I’ve grown this casual fascination with the way they do life, I’m gonna take a look at some of the ways French women also take good care of their beauty.
I felt like it was actually very useful and helpful and I hope you think so too!
Jump to:
1. Having the Right Mindset About Skincare
They’re not seeing their skincare regime as a chore.
Their moms teach them that they get to take care of their skin. It’s a good thing and they like doing it.
Also, instead of seeing products and skincare as a way to fight problematic issues (think anti-acne, anti-aging, etc.), they see it as pro-skin self-care.
Also, stressing over the different elements of your skin will never help it, and especially since stress will only ever harm you.
2. They Stay Away from Harsher Treatments
While treatments chemical peels can be helpful, French women tend to stay away from harsher skin treatments.

They like doing skincare that they believe is gonna be gentle and kind to their skin.
Why is this?
They believe it can cause inflammation and inflammation has been found to make you age faster.
3. They Believe That Sleep Really is Important for Their Beauty
I think it’s easy for some of us (myself included) to think that if we get less than 8 hours of sleep, we’ll be fine.
But the quick and simple fact is that French women are very careful to get the right amount of sleep for their beauty.
It really can have such a big effect on how you look!
4. They Go to the Experts
Just like how you or I would develop a close relationship with our hairdresser since they know us, they know our hair, and they know exactly how to make it look amazing, they have the same kind of relationship with their dermatologist (and/or aestheticians).
When you cultivate a relationship with them over time, they’re gonna know exactly what you need and be able to carefully rule things out for your skin’s health.
Also, they see them regularly. According to one source, they’re seeing them seasonally (or even once a month).
5. Taking Hydration Seriously
French women really do take this seriously and will drink a glass of water right before bed, and right after waking up.
They understand how important this is for their health and beauty.
6. They Keep Makeup Simple & Natural
Everyday makeup for French women isn’t overdone, it’s a lot more natural and enhances natural features.
Honestly, I like this one because I’ve noticed that no matter how old a woman is (early 20’s to late 70’s), if the makeup is too heavy, it can really detract from how they look.
7. Using a Milk Cleanser
I recently just learned about milk cleaners, and I’m probably gonna get one!
They’re softer cleansers that aren’t going to be harsh on your skin and help keep it looking fresh.
