There was sufficient talk on people hoarding toilet paper, flour, and pasta as a precautionary measure when confinement started.
However, other products, like hair colouring, also had their fair share of sales during this extraordinary time.
In the week before confinement started, beauty products registered a 30% increase in sales, before dropping during lockdown and rebounding again after.
Topping the list of products were hair dye products, hair-removal cream, and of course hand sanitisers.
When it comes to the sale of facial masks, officials expect 94 million euros in revenue generated between 4 and 24 May.
Contrary to expectations and the habits of other countries, like for example the UK, the French have seem to sobered up a little during confinement.
The day with the highest sales of alcohol was actually registered on 9 May, with 45 million euros being spent across the country to celebrate the end of confinement.
