Ageless TV star Catriona Rowntree has revealed the beauty purchases she makes at the pharmacy when she’s in France – and most of them are available in Australia.
The Getaway presenter shared her best ‘French pharmacy tips’ and the skincare and beauty products she’s obsessed with, including a nappy rash cream Margot Robbie swears by for dry skin.
Bepanthen Diaper Rash Ointment is essential for many parents with babies and toddlers, but beauty gurus have discovered its moisturizing properties.
Catriona heard about the cream from Margot Robbie, who once revealed that she uses it as a lip balm.
‘This is Margot Robbie’s favourite, which many of us used to use to soothe our babies’ little red bottoms and now use for dry skin,’ she said.
