Availability of cosmetics in New Zealand?
Question by rosie: Availability of cosmetics in New Zealand?
I will be holidaying in New Zealand for 5 weeks and am hoping to save some space and weight on my luggage by leaving cosmetics and the like at home. My plan is to buy these when I get there in the leave whatever I have left over. However, I am unsure of the availability of some of the products.
I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me if these products are available to buy at a reasonable price and if they are easily available, ie. in most supermarkets and pharmacies. I remember the chain of Pharmachem (or something) but it wasn’t quite extensive as Boots or Superdrug.
Also, I would rather not buy online, but in store.

Yes we have all these products in New Zealand either at the supermarkets or at pharmacies. Depending on where you are, go to a Life Pharmacy for anything you can’t find at the supermarket, they generally have everything else. Also try the retail store Farmers – there’s one in almost every major town and city. The same goes for Body Shop – you’ll find it in the main towns/cities as well. Hope you enjoy your time here
