This place has everything, but I;m not going to lie… kinda freaks me out. Warning — childhood memory coming up… When I was younger my gran would take me here or the other branches and she would spend ages pouring over all the creams and lotions, and all the shampoo smells and all the toothpaste qualities. So I associate Semi-chem with frustrated memories of choosing between ‘berry blossom’ or ‘vanilla skies’ because ‘people can smell your hair you know.‘ Nostalgia aside, they have a lot of stock and it’s all pretty decent. This shop is pretty small and narrow, however, and can get a bit cramped. Staff are lovely though. You can’t really go wrong with semi chem

A handy alternative to the likes of Boots and Superdrug is Semi Chem. Stocking all things toiletries but at an occasionally far cheaper rate than the afore mentioned stockists it’s well worth a look. For some peculiar reason a burly bouncer is always present at the entrance. This, as well as telling you the clientele are mostly dodgy locals, tells me the deals found in here are an absolute steal…(cringe).

One time my friend and I were browsing the cheap cosmetics and toiletries. My friend put her hand in her pocket, took her phone out and checked it, then put her phone away. A harmless thing to do, yes? No. The shop assistant then bellowed across the shop to the other girl: «Here, watch those two girls one just put her hand in her pocket! Better keep an eye on them!” In her finest mink accent. All the other customers turned and looked at us and my friend blew a gasket. It was quite entertaining, but bugger going back there again.
