Q: Why is it so hard to find sun screen here in China?

Am I just not seeing it on the shelves or is there really a lack of sunscreen here?

China is lacking in almost all skin care products, with the exception of skin whiteners and anti wrinkle cream. You can usually find it in the big cities...

I had to buy it as part of a woman whitening kit. Got a factor 30 sun screen and a nice little bottle of skin whitener Smile

I haven't found sunscreen in China. When I come, I always bring my own. It's because people here use umbrellas to keep the sun off of them.

A:Chinese are generally pretty tolerant friendly and accepting whatever foreigners do.  I spent 15 years in China but I wouldn't say there are that many don'ts....Don't assume that many people speak English though and learn some Chinese. Don't speak much about politics unless you want to praise Chinese system.  -- Natalie363
