This is an interesting store and rather large. Until recently it used to be the Life Pharmacy…read moreoutlet and even though the name has changed they still stock the same stuff pretty much. So what can you expect to find in an outlet pharmacy/beauty store? Many things. Need to bulk up? They sell fitness supplements, protein powders, carb free foods and other concoctions to enhance your gym workout and if you manage to sustain an injury they have a good first aid section too. Need a gift for granny? No problem, this is talc and soap city. There is also a great range of shampoo, conditioners and other hair product. They sell large salon size product too, so many washes for such a low price and loads of hair accessories. Nail polishes, make up and perfumes and skin care are more towards the front of the store and often you can get yourself some pretty good bargains. For example I once got a tub of Freeze 24/7 moisturiser for $50 instead of $135 and it wasn't expired. Do check the expiration dates though, usually they tell you if they are close to being past their shelf life but you never know. Perfume to plasters if you are in Dress Smart have a look and see what you find,

Hello hay fever! We had to catch a bus in 5 minutes so I pretty much ran into The Auckland City Pharmacy and explained to the pharmacist that I was in a hurry and need of hay fever medications. Before I could even fish out my wallet from the bag the medication was already in a bag and all they needed was a payment. Such fast and prompt serve is rare in a pharmacy,they usually take a while to get to you. I was beyond impressed.

I came in to this pharmacy after finding a really disappointing selection of sunscreens at…read moreCountdown. But I was so happy when I arrived at the sunscreen section of the pharmacy - so many options that are reef safe, and not tested on animals!! I ended up going with the Natio SPF 50 sunscreen as it had been recommended by a friend. The 'screen was regularly priced at $15.00. The customer service here is truly exceptional. When I was taking a gander at all the options, an employee came over to me and asked if I had any questions or needed any help. I told her I was just taking a look and she told me where she would be if I needed help. When I checked out, the woman behind the counter could tell by my American accent that I wasn't local, and she took the time to warn me about the sun here and told me to just make sure to reapply sunscreen when I'm in the sun. The pharmacy is small but still has a great assortment of health and beauty products, and lots of options for vegans! They stock quite a bit of the Natio range and have a wide variety of supplements and vitamins. I'll continue buying my sunscreens and other health/beauty needs from here! Great place and I highly recommend

The prices are generally not too outrageous for a pharmacy, and the service is quick, although the staff at the front till are really less than friendly, the ones down the back who deal with scripts are really nice. I've had some excellent bargains here too, including Dr Lewinn's products for absolutely dirt cheap, and the range of makeup is much better that at other Queen Street parmacies.

I don't go to chemists all that often, and when I do it's because there's something wrong with me…read more This place has a whole range of makeup and stuff but I can't comment on that, I only come here because I have a pain or an ailment that needs fixing. I can't be alone in this. Bearing that in mind, the service here is kind of disappointing. I mean not outright rude or anything, but definitely not friendly, and even to call it polite is being generous. I know it must be boring working as a cashier at a pharmacy, but suck it up. The people you're serving probably also work boring jobs (this pharmacy is in town, you know), and they've probably also got hayfever or bunions or something - that's why they're here. You don't have to sympathise with every single one of them, but yawning and rolling your eyes is not helping anyone. You're not too good for this job - you know how I know? Because it's your job.

The gifts are set out by scent, so there are different spaces for citrus, lavender, rose and so on which makes it really easy to find what you're looking for. The center of the store always has some incredible display of the latest offerings and additionally this pharmacy boasts a large range of natural skin care and cosmetic brands. I bought some pretty pastel purple Italian glass pots here the other day, am yet to use it for a prescription though.

My mum always purchases a special supplement from here as they are the only place that stocks it, and the woman working there noticed, and offered to lend mum her book on them!

They also have a really good range of gifts here and their stock is never depleted. The pharmacists also give great advice if you ever have any niggles or worries!

Over the past few months I've ordered everything from iron melts to blister support for sports, and everything has been delivered swiftly. The range is great, the cart and checkout are really easy to use and the delivery comes quickly - what more could you ask for? In store, the staff are helpful without being pushy - they will give you advice if you ask for it, point you in the right direction if you're lost, but won't stand over you like a school teacher while you make up your mind. I would happily recommend going into the store and shopping online.

Fortunately there is a hareem of helpful and non-judgemental staff always available to help. They seem to have an encyclopedic knowledge of the products they offer and if they don't know the answer themselves, one of their colleagues is sure to be able to help. I prefer to shop here than anywhere else these days as if it wasn't for their help I would have been sure to use the wrong product on more than one occassion, with faily disasterous results.
