How I finally got my hands on Salt & Stone scents without the Australia stock headache

My obsession with Salt & Stone natural deodorant

I have tried almost every natural deodorant on the market, but nothing quite matches the fragrance profile of Salt & Stone. We are talking about scents like Santal & Vetiver or Bergamot & Hinoki that actually last through a humid day. In 2026, the brand has become a staple for anyone moving away from aluminum-based products, but finding the full range here in Australia remains a challenge. We often see the most popular scents sell out instantly, leaving us with very few options.

More about shipping to Australia

I noticed that us trends show a massive shift toward these high-performance naturals. While we have a few local stockists, they rarely carry the seasonal limited editions or the value bundles that make the price point more manageable. This is why I decided to look directly at the source: the US market.

Why I stopped waiting for local Australian restocks

It is frustrating to see a product launch in California and wait three months for it to land in Sydney. Read more: Australian demand for Salt & Stone often exceeds local supply, and when it does arrive, the markup is often significant. By using a tax-free us address, I found that I could access the entire inventory on the Salt & Stone US website or Sephora US without the "out of stock" notification staring me in the face.

The steps I took to shop US stores from my couch

The process is actually much simpler than I expected. Since most US beauty retailers don't offer direct **international shipping** to Australia at a reasonable price, I used comGateway as my **freight forwarder**. They provide a US shipping address that I enter at checkout. Once my deodorant sticks arrive at their warehouse, they notify me, and I can choose my preferred shipping method to get them to my door.

I always recommend checking the FAQ if you are new to this, as it explains how the consolidation process works. If you are buying multiple items, like a 3-pack of Santal & Vetiver, you can save a lot of money.

Shipping breakdown: Weight and dimensions

Before you hit the buy button, it is helpful to know what you are looking at in terms of logistics. I used the shipping calculator to get a rough idea of the costs before I committed. Here is what my typical Salt & Stone order looks like:

Checking the international shipping rates beforehand ensures there are no surprises when the bill arrives.

The BuyForMe solution for difficult US checkouts

One hurdle I encountered was that some US stores are quite picky about payment. They might block an Australian credit card or cancel an order if the billing address doesn't match the US shipping address. This is a common issue with large retailers like Sephora or even some boutique brand sites.

To get around this, I use the "BuyForMe" service. This is essentially **proxy shopping** where comGateway buys the item on my behalf using their own US-based credit card. It is the most reliable way to ensure my order isn't flagged or cancelled. If you have ever had your order declined at the last second, this service is the answer to that headache.

Handling import tax and GST in 2026

When you ship to Australia, you need to keep an eye on the Australian Taxation Office rules. Currently, in 2026, GST is usually applied to low-value imported goods. However, if your total order value is under $1,000 AUD, the **import tax** process is relatively straightforward. You can find more details on how these fees are calculated in the import duties section of the blog. It helps to stay informed so you know exactly what the total landed cost will be for your premium skincare haul.

By following these steps, I managed to get my favorite scents delivered directly to my home in Melbourne without having to wait for a local store to decide if they want to restock them. It's a game of patience that I'm no longer willing to play!
