Don't even shop at Watsons or Guardian pharmacy. This place has it all and at half the price. In…read morefact, you can get some prescription drugs without prescription (shhh...). Anything you find at the major pharmacy stores, you can get here at approximately a quarter of the price. It is centrally located, literally located in the middle of central. If you looking for cologne / perfume, this is also the place to go to, if you are too lazy to hitch a ride to Shenzhen. An amazing shop, one has to wonder how they get everything so cheap. A shopping must, if you are looking for essentials!

This store literally amazes me. You can buy everything from old-school shaving foam to hardcore…read moreantibiotics here. Out of town visitors are always astounded that a prescription is not needed for the medicines you can pick up here. I discovered Fanda whilst at university as the frequent flights home for holidays left me in a near permanent state of jet lag I went in for melatonin and walked out with a pack zolief which knocks you out for a guaranteed five hours so that you can get enough sleep on the first night in a new city to function the next day. Years later you can still buy sleeping pills but I tend to pick up less extreme medication these days - paracetamols, decongestants and asthma inhalers to combat the effects of the city's pollution. I also rely on Fanda for buying make up wipes in bulk and picking up various supplements such as giant jars of fish oil capsules. They also have a great range of nail products including stickers which are perfect for holidays when you need to hide chipped polish. The counter is always busy so if you don't want to share your business with the world, write down your shopping list and pass it to the staff - they'll discreetly bag up the items so that no one need know what your ailment is.

This 145 years old English perfumery finally has it's own store! Just like the store in their…read morehometown London, products are meticulously displaced and very welcoming. I was like a kid in a candy store who just wanted to try everything! The lady who assisted us was very friendly and patience, even though we did not make any purchases. But she does need a little work on her appearance to keep up with the image of this brand. Other than an oversize sweater and a pair of short over black stocking, maybe pantsuit or even uniform (surprised it's not provided) would be more appropriate?

Bonjour is one of the main cosmetics chains in Hong Kong. Sasa is the other one. This location is…read morelocated on Bute Street in Mong Kok next to the footbridge that connects Grand Century Place/Mong Kok East Station with Mong Kok Station. The store actually has three different entrances since it takes up multiple storefronts. While Bonjour is known for their cosmetics and fragrances offerings, it has commonality with the two drugstore chains, Mannings and Watsons. While cosmetics are the main offering, Bonjour has a nice selection of drugstore products. Particularly Chinese medicines and healing oils. And the prices seem to be the same or better at Bonjour than at the two drugstore chains based on a product comparison I did on a few items. The store also has a nice food and snacks selection including some that are imported. There is even an area here in the right side back of the store that is full of Japanese snacks and groceries. The only issue with this store is that the aisles are small and the checkout location seems to be oddly placed near the middle of the store. If you are looking for a drugstore item, you should check out Bonjour to see if they have it. You might save a few bucks here rather than going to one of the drugstore chains.
