I discovered why my assumption about Singapore's Sol de Janeiro stock was completely wrong

My obsession with Sol de Janeiro Delícia Drench

I have spent most of early 2026 looking for the perfect scent to define my year. When I first heard about the Sol de Janeiro Delícia Drench Body Butter, I knew I had to have it. The scent profile—a velvety blend of vanilla orchid and sugared violet—is unlike anything else currently on the market. While the Brazilian Bum Bum Cream is a classic, this new addition offers a deeper, more moisture-rich experience that I found perfect for my skin.

I started browsing us trends to see what the buzz was about in North America. It turns out that US retailers like Sephora are offering exclusive value sets and jumbo sizes that simply aren't available in our local shops. I realized that if I wanted the full experience, I had to look beyond our borders.

The Singapore stock dilemma I encountered

Like many of you, I initially checked the local shelves here in Singapore. I was disappointed to find that the specific Delícia Drench bundles I saw on social media were nowhere to be found. I assumed that shipping a single jar of body butter would be too expensive or complicated. I was wrong. By using a freight forwarder, I was able to access the entire US collection without waiting months for a local release that might never happen.

Shipping estimates for your beauty haul

I wanted to make sure I wasn't surprised by the costs, so I used a shipping calculator before placing my order. Here is what I found for a standard 240ml jar of Sol de Janeiro Delícia Drench Body Butter:

Metric Estimate
Box Weight Approx. 1.2 lbs (0.55 kg) including packaging
Box Dimensions Small (Approx. 6 x 6 x 4 inches)
Volumetric Warning Low. This item is dense, so you will likely be charged by actual weight rather than size.
Battery Check No lithium batteries. Standard international shipping rules apply.

I found that combining my body butter with a few other small items made the shipping even more cost-effective. Check our guide on Local Sephora vs US direct shipping: The blueprint for Sol de Janeiro Delícia Drench in Singapore to see how the numbers stack up.

How I bypassed credit card blocks with BuyForMe

My biggest challenge wasn't the shipping; it was the checkout process. I tried to shop us store locations directly, but my Singapore-issued credit card was declined by Sephora US. Many high-end US retailers block international cards or refuse to ship to addresses they recognize as belonging to a parcel forwarding service.

We found the perfect solution through comGateway’s "BuyForMe" service. I simply told them what I wanted, and they used a US domestic credit card to purchase the item on my behalf. This guaranteed my order wouldn't be cancelled and saved me a lot of frustration. If you are worried about your payment getting flagged, this is the safest way to ensure your Delícia Drench actually makes it to the warehouse.

My step-by-step guide to forwarding

I followed a simple how it works guide to get my package home. First, I signed up for a tax-free us address in Oregon. Since there is no sales tax in that state, I saved about 7% right off the bat on the purchase price. Once my body butter arrived at the warehouse, I received a notification and chose my preferred shipping speed to Singapore.

If you have more questions about the process, I recommend checking the FAQ section on the website. I found it very helpful for understanding import duties into Singapore.
