More about shipping to Singapore

The problem for us in Singapore is that Glossier still does not have a flagship presence here. While you can find it through various resellers, the markup is often eye-watering. Plus, buying directly from the US site often means getting access to exclusive gift-with-purchase deals and limited edition bundles that never make it to our shores.

The US price advantage: Is it real?

When you look at the price tag on the official US site, the rollerball looks like a steal. However, the question remains: does the cost of international shipping eat up all those savings? For many savvy shoppers, the answer is still a resounding no, especially if you are consolidating multiple items. By using a freight forwarder like comGateway, you can access a tax-free US address, which saves you from paying US sales tax before the item even leaves the warehouse.

Shipping Estimates and Box Specs

To help you plan your budget, here is a breakdown of what you can expect when shipping this specific item. You can also use the shipping calculator to get a more precise figure based on your full cart.

Important Note on Shipping Perfume

Before you hit the checkout button, you need to be aware of shipping rules regarding liquids. Perfumes contain alcohol, which means they are often classified as flammable or restricted goods. Most carriers have specific procedures for handling "Dangerous Goods." Always check with your shipping provider to ensure they can handle perfume exports to Singapore before you buy. Some carriers might charge a small surcharge for handling these items, but it is a standard part of international shipping for beauty products.

Navigating Singapore Customs and Import Tax

As of 2026, Singapore applies a Goods and Services Tax (GST) on all imported goods. When your Glossier haul arrives, you will need to account for this import tax. Currently, the GST rate is 9%. This is usually collected by the courier or handled during the clearance process. If you want to avoid surprises, check out our guide on customs tax to see how the valuation is calculated.

Even with the 9% GST and international shipping rates, many fans find that the total cost is still lower than buying from local parallel importers who might be charging a 40-50% premium.

How to get it to Singapore in 2026

The process is simpler than it looks. First, sign up for a US-based address. This allows you to shop US store sites as if you were living in Portland or Los Angeles. Once your package arrives at the warehouse, you can choose your preferred delivery method, such as DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping, to get it delivered directly to your doorstep in Singapore.

If you are worried about the shipping fees, consider "buying in bulk" with friends. Since the rollerball is so light, adding three or four to a single shipment barely increases the weight, significantly lowering the cost per item. You can find more details on how to ship to Singapore on our dedicated destination page.

What if the US store won't accept my card?

Sometimes, US retailers like Glossier might flag non-US credit cards or billing addresses. If you find yourself stuck at the checkout screen, do not worry—this is where proxy shopping comes in. You can use a BuyForMe service where a local agent handles the purchase for you. This assisted purchase method is a lifesaver for getting around regional payment blocks and ensuring you do not miss out on those limited-edition 2026 drops.
