Gold Bond Medicated Powder

Post by jolonicc » Wed, 20 May 2009 4:19 am

I am looking for this product here and I am not able to find it. Does anyone know of a competitor to this product? I have "tried" to explain what this product is used for to a few girls at Fair Price and Guardian without much luck. Talc powder would be good enough also until I can get some care packages sent from home.


I am not explaning what its used for here either, you know what its for or you dont. )

That'll work just fine. Before I lost all my weight last year, I must have helped keep the company afloat! :(

It's in Guardian pharmacy or your Chinese medicine shop.

Looks like this:

But might have a different "brand" name but the general can & coloration is the same.

If no luck. You can try baby medicated powder. Smells good also.
