Hi
I don't know Hong Kong at all and I'm wondering if they have shops selling the full range of sunscreens for reasonable prices, especially Avene. I can only get the physical Avene range here in China along with a lot of other dubious stuff.
thanks

When in HK, you can go to Sa Sa and Bonjour to look for Avene products.
They also have the drugstore chains Watson's and Manning where you can find sunscreen products.
Hope this helps...  |

You have to be careful when you shop in Hong kong especially cosmetics.
You will enjoy shopping at Department stores, Waton's and Manning and the products are 100% real.But in those smaller retail you have to look at the expiry day and check whether they are genuine products or not. |

| Good news for you Molly! There is a Avene counter at Seibu department store at Pacific Place....It is a little at the end after Ci Labo and Dr Hauschka etc. the prices are as good as Europe, But last time I checked they didnt have any spray ss....There is a Vichy stand alone shop in CWB too, near SOGO but they too dont have the full range but I got a ss similar to FE of LRP from there. And ofcourse the brands like Lancome has ssavailable in HK with Mexoryl etc. |

hi~
SOGO (in Causewaybay)has all of the upper end make up counters.. you should go there to check things out.
I heard from my friend that a sunscreen by SOFINA (a Japanese brand)is very good. Very sheer, and absorbs quickly. I think you can find that at SOGO also. |

Thanks everyone. That's great.
I'll hop on the bus next week and stock up. Then maybe I'll open a sunscreen shop in Guangzhou  and make a quick fortune. The combination of sun and pollution here makes it a hell-hole for skin lovers. Stay away

| really? when I was in Hong Kong my skin was fine. It must be because I sweat out all the impurities because it was so damn hot! (went in the summer) |
