Is getting 60 Topicals Faded eye masks to Malaysia really this easy with a freight forwarder?

Why I switched to the Topicals Faded bulk jar

I have been obsessed with the Topicals brand for years, but keeping up with their individual eye mask sachets was becoming a drain on my wallet. When I saw the 2026 release of the "Faded" Under Eye Masks in a massive 30-pair (60 patches) bulk jar, I knew I had to have it. This format is significantly more cost-effective for those of us in Malaysia who deal with long-term hyperpigmentation, but there was a catch: it remains a US-exclusive release.

We often see these viral products and assume we have to wait months for a local distributor to pick them up, often at a 50% markup. I decided I wasn't going to wait. I wanted the same price US customers pay, so I looked into how I could use a freight forwarder to bridge the gap between a US warehouse and my doorstep in Kuala Lumpur.

My lazy method for US-exclusive skincare

I value my time, and I don't like filling out complex forms or worrying if my package is stuck in a warehouse. My preferred method involves using comGateway to provide me with a tax-free US address. By shipping my skincare to Oregon, I avoid US sales tax entirely, which saves me about 7-10% right off the bat.

Using an international shipping service like this allows me to shop at stores like Sephora US or the official Topicals site as if I were living in the States. Once my package arrives at my US suite, I just click a button and wait for it to arrive at my house. It is the closest thing to a "set it and forget it" system for international shopping.

The BuyForMe solution for blocked cards

One thing I encountered while trying to shop US stores from Malaysia is the dreaded "Payment Declined" screen. Many US retailers, including some major beauty hubs, frequently block international credit cards or refuse to ship to known warehouse addresses. This used to be where my shopping journey ended.

I found that the safest way to guarantee my order doesn't get cancelled is to use proxy shopping via the BuyForMe service. Essentially, we tell the comGateway team what we want, and they buy the item on our behalf using a US domestic credit card. This bypasses the regional blocks that usually stop us from getting these exclusive drops. If you are tired of your orders being flagged, I highly recommend checking their FAQ to see how the assisted purchase process works.

Shipping estimates for the bulk jar

To help you plan your budget, I’ve put together a quick estimate based on the typical packaging for the Topicals bulk jar. You can also use the shipping calculator for a more precise quote based on your specific location in Malaysia.

Metric Estimate
Box Weight Approx. 0.4 kg to 0.6 kg (0.9 lbs - 1.3 lbs)
Box Dimensions Small (Approx. 12cm x 12cm x 10cm)
Volumetric Warning Low. This item is dense and small, so volumetric weight is unlikely to exceed actual weight.
Battery Check No lithium batteries. Standard shipping applies.

Because the item is quite light, I usually suggest consolidating it with a few other skincare picks to maximize the international shipping service base rate. Shipping one small jar alone might feel expensive, but shipping five or six items together makes the per-item cost negligible.

Handling the boring stuff: Import tax and duties

I know many of us worry about our packages being held by customs. When importing beauty products into Malaysia, the import tax and SST rules are something we need to keep in mind. Generally, personal skincare shipments under a certain value (De Minimis threshold) may sail through, but it is always wise to be prepared.

I always check the latest updates on customs tax before I place a large order. If you choose DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping through your forwarder, they usually handle the clearance for you, and you can pay any necessary fees through their online portals. It’s part of the lazy method—letting the experts handle the paperwork while I just wait for my eye masks to arrive.

If you've been eyeing that 2026 bulk jar, don't let the "US-only" label stop you. It’s easier than you think to get it to Malaysia when you have the right international shipping partner in your corner.
