I don't possess tickets to the French Open, but if I did, I would pack these 7 summer beauty must-haves.

      I've gained quite a bit of insight into the power of manifestation from watching videos on Instagram and TikTok. Because of this, I'm feeling somewhat optimistic that I might eventually get the opportunity to attend the French Open. I believe I've followed all the necessary steps (or at least I think I have). I’ve clearly articulated my wish to go. I’ve visualized what it would be like sitting courtside, soaking up the sun, and hearing the sound of the tennis ball hitting the racket and sneakers sliding on clay. After that, I tried my best to let go of my attachment to the outcome, allowing my desire to exist without forcing it into reality. Will it come to pass? Who knows. I suppose we’ll have to revisit this in a year. (Fingers crossed that I’ll be updating this article from a sunny café in Paris.) In the meantime, I can satisfy my tennis cravings by watching the women's final on Saturday, June 6, and the men's final on Sunday, June 7. I can also put together a list of French beauty essentials that I would either A) use before attending or B) take with me. These summery picks range from classic pharmacy staples to newer favorites.

      **EMBRYOLISSE**

      Lait-Crème Concentré Multi-Function Moisturizer

      Embryolisse's Lait-Crème Concentré is one of my go-to French pharmacy products. This versatile six-in-one formula serves as a moisturizer, makeup primer, skin-soothing mask, post-sun treatment, after-shave product, and even as a cleansing emulsion in a pinch. While it works beautifully underneath makeup, I typically use it as a moisturizer on no-makeup days. Even without concealer or foundation, it makes my skin appear smooth, plump, and hydrated. It would be an ideal base for a natural courtside look.

      **La Roche-Posay**

      Anthelios UV Air Daily Supercharged Serum Sunscreen SPF 50

      Whenever I'm in Europe, I make sure to stock up on sunscreen options not available in the U.S. That said, there are a few American SPFs that I deem worthy to take along with me, and La Roche-Posay's Anthelios UV Air Daily Supercharged Serum Sunscreen is one of those. Its lightweight, serum-like texture absorbs quickly into the skin, providing broad-spectrum SPF 50 along with hydrating benefits. Thanks to strong antioxidants, it also offers 16-hour anti-pollution protection. I can reapply it numerous times without worrying about pilling, smudging, or a ghostly white cast.

      **Typology Paris**

      Glow Drops 5% Vitamin C + Aloe Vera

      I envision my look for the French Open as fresh, radiant, and natural, so while I won’t be using traditional concealer or foundation, I will indulge in a few drops of these Glow Drops. They have a non-sticky, hydrating base filled with pearlescent particles. This means I get an immediate glow boost. The added antioxidant benefit from vitamin C is just the icing on the cake.

      **Violette_FR**

      Plume Blush Feather Matte Cream-To-Powder Cheek Melt in Rose Fumé

      Recently, I’ve been loving the no-mascara vibe, favoring a touch of blush and a juicy lip product instead. For the blush, I can't get enough of Violette_FR's new Plume Blush. Its featherlight formula blends seamlessly like a cream and diffuses beautifully like a powder, giving the most lovely flush of color.

      **Clarins**

      Lip Comfort Hydrating Oil in 04 Pitaya

      I can't talk about juicy lip oils without mentioning this one from Clarins. The hydrating formula glides onto the lips, delivering sheer color along with a high-gloss finish.

      **Nuxe**

      Huile Prodigieuse Shimmering Dry Oil

      Nuxe's Huile Prodigieuse Shimmering Dry Oil is iconic. I adore the original version (it’s hydrating, feather-light, non-greasy, and smells fantastic), but when I’m outdoors in the sun, I prefer the shimmering option. It adds a beautiful golden iridescence to my limbs.

      **Avène**

      Thermal Spring Water

      Finally, I'll need a product to refresh my skin and cool me down on high UV index days. For that, I can’t think of anything better than Avène's famous Thermal Spring Water. It's hydrating, rich in minerals, and light enough not to disrupt makeup or sunscreen. It’s the final touch in achieving my hypothetical low-effort yet high-impact courtside aesthetic.
