Large Sized Foreigners will not be able to buy clothes and shoes inland China

Inland China has no shoes for ladies over the size of 40...you will need to make sure you have your own footwear when coming to live in these areas.
I also find large sizes in clothes are not readily available.

Things you find difficult to get in inland China

I found Nail polish remover at Shanghai but was not able to get any in Hefei...same with deoderant.
Chinese do not seem to wear deoderant or use Talcum powder...so bring your own supplies.
I blonde my hair. You cannot get blonde hair color in China, so make sure you bring your own. I invariably end up black when I go to a hairdresser here. or a different color to what was intended.
I also found boot polish not easy to get...most people seem to wear non leather shoes today.

I did not bring the correct seasonal wardrobe, and am struggling to buy afordable clothes, and in my size..I am larger than chinese ladies.
I would hate to try shoes again...I brought my own
