The guide also offers complete descriptions and recommendations for each venue's treatments and products, and advises readers how to navigate the cultural nuances of spa etiquette.

Pampered in Paris also takes readers to the French pharmacy to discover inexpensive products beloved by Parisians that keep them looking their best.
