Katja_84 Posted May 2, 2010 at 03:56 AM Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 at 03:56 AM Hello, Does anyone know of a good place to buy hard-to-find items in Beijing (e.g. sunscreen that doesn't whiten your skin, shampoo that doesn't make your hair 'extra sleek' (all the shampoo I've tried in China are a disaster for thin straight Scandinavian hair), Earl Grey tea, etc). I've tried the Walmart in Xuanwumen and the Watsons in Xidan. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miss_China_so_much Posted May 4, 2010 at 10:47 AM Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 at 10:47 AM If your Chinese is good enough, try www.taobao.com, you'd find tons of real (and fake, of course!) western products! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenarcher Posted May 11, 2010 at 11:20 PM Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 at 11:20 PM BHG Marketplace has a lot of imported goods. It has branches in Shin Kong Place, Solana and another spot near the airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddy Posted May 12, 2010 at 01:04 PM Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 at 01:04 PM The BHG I go to (at Raffles, Dongzhimen) has some imported food but I had a look at the shampooy stuff and didn't see anything. I'd try Jenny Lou's, or maybe a high-end Chaoyang hairdresser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
