Paris beauty retail as Valérie walks it: three areas, twenty-one stores, each one on the map with its address, its nearest metro and what it is for. Galeries Lafayette and Printemps are on it, but so are Nose, Oh My Cream, the Korean cosmetics shops around Les Halles and the pharmacies that quietly outsell them. Prepared for the brands she takes through the market, and ordered so a day in Paris covers ground instead of crossing the city twice.

What's inside
The ground it covers.
- 01
Area 1 — Champs-Élysées, Rivoli, Louvre, Les Halles
Twenty-one numbered stores on one map, walkable in a morning.
- 02
Area 2 — Saint-Germain, Sèvres, Babylone, Latin Quarter
The left bank, where the independents and the concept stores sit.
- 03
Area 3 — Beaugrenelle, Commerce, Montparnasse
The quieter end, and the pharmacies worth the detour.
- 04
Addresses, metro stops and store type
Department store, beauty chain, pharmacy or independent, marked on every entry.
Walk it once, knowing where to go.
A market rewards whoever arrives prepared. Which doors matter, what each one ranges, where the buyers actually are, and what the visit costs in time. These are the guides Valérie hands a founder before the trip.
- Walked, not researched
Every store on the map has been visited: what it ranges, who it serves, and whether it is worth your morning.
- Ordered for a real visit
Grouped by area and walking distance, so a day on the ground covers ground instead of crossing the city twice.
- Written for a beauty brand
Not a tourist guide. Department store, chain, pharmacy or independent, and what each one means for where a brand belongs.
- Hers, not compiled
Prepared by Valérie Kaminov from her own market visits, and shared with the brands she works with.
"Valérie has guided us towards opportunities we would never have identified alone, while protecting the integrity and positioning of our brand."
