If you’re thinking about high-end cosmetics, we ought to go to a profumeria (beauty store). many profumerie belong to huge retail chains, like Sephora, Limoni or Douglas, however rather a few independent stores still survive. a few of these are called bioprofumerie as well as only bring natural as well as organic products. would you like to inspect one out?

If you’re searching for what you’d phone call ‘drugstore makeup’, we can’t go to a drugstore.
কেন তুমি আমাকে জিজ্ঞেস করছ? Well, since our drugstores (farmacie) are extremely different from American ones as well as don’t offer much else other than medicines. The only charm products you can discover there are French pharmacy skincare (Bioderma, La Roche Posay, Avène, as well as the like), so if you’re thinking about Maybelline or similar Italian brands, we ought to go to a supermarket instead.
Here, all supermarkets have a charm corner where you can discover products in the drugstore cost range. The exact same kinds of products can likewise be discovered at Acqua & Sapone or Tigotà, two retail chains that specialize in cleaning supplies as well as personal care items.
I don’t understand if you have something similar in the US, however they kinda remind me of drugstores, minus the drugs!
