French girls apply face masks at least twice a week. Most popular masks in their skincare regimen are acacia honey and green clay mask.

They always include olive oil in their face mask. For hair mask, they use a mixture of egg yolk, rum and olive oil on their hair. They use this mixture on their wet scalp and then leave it such for half an hour. Then they wash their hair. This hair mask makes their hair shiny.

The best part about them I feel is that they know how to look good without putting much on their faces. They don’t like camouflaging their flaws with makeup. They can rock their self with minimal makeup. They only put a little amount of base on their face just in order to look, fresher, nothing else. They either do their lips or their eyes. But never both.
