My blueprint for a scent-sational Touchland haul from the US to Japan

February 25, 2026

The aesthetic blueprint for my hydration routine

I must admit, my obsession with the Touchland Power Mist Hydrating Hand Sanitizer started on social media. It wasn't just about clean hands; it was about the sleek, flat design that fits perfectly in my pocket and the scents that smell more like high-end perfumes than alcohol. In 2026, these have become the ultimate accessory in Tokyo. However, finding the full range of scents like Beach Coco or the seasonal bundles locally is nearly impossible. I decided to draft a plan to get them directly from the source.

Sourcing exclusive scents from US retailers

I realized early on that the best deals and the most exciting variety exist only on US websites. When I want to shop us ship international, I always look for those exclusive bundles that include five or six different mists. To get these to my door, I use comGateway. They provide me with a tax-free US address, which is the foundation of my shopping strategy. By using a package forwarding service, I can collect multiple orders from different shops and have them sent to Japan in one go.

Overcoming the checkout wall with BuyForMe

During my shopping spree, I encountered a common problem. Many US-based stores, including major beauty retailers like Sephora or even the official Touchland site, sometimes block international credit cards. They might also decline orders if they detect a warehouse address. I found it incredibly frustrating when my orders were cancelled within minutes of placement.

This is where I started using the proxy shopping service known as BuyForMe. Instead of me struggling with my Japanese credit card, I simply tell the experts at comGateway what I want. They buy the items using a US domestic card on my behalf. It is honestly the safest way I have found to guarantee my order doesn't get stuck in the digital void. It saves me the headache of dealing with customer service and ensures I get those limited edition scents before they sell out.

Shipping estimates for your bundle

I know how important it is to plan the logistics of a haul. If you are looking to bring a few of these sanitizers over, here is the data I used for my planning:

Metric Estimate
Box Weight Approx. 1.2 lbs (0.55 kg) for a 5-pack bundle with packaging.
Box Dimensions Small (Approx. 8 x 6 x 4 inches).
Volumetric Warning These items are very dense for their size. Volumetric weight is rarely an issue for Touchland mists unless you are buying a giant display case.
Battery Check This item contains NO lithium batteries. No special battery forms required!

Calculating the trek to Tokyo

Before I click the final button, I always use a shipping calculator to see what the landed cost will be. Since these are liquids, I make sure to check if there are any specific international shipping rates that apply to health and beauty products. Generally, because these are small and light, the international shipping fees are quite manageable when I combine them with other small items like skincare or tech accessories. I find that international shipping rates are much more affordable when I use the consolidation feature offered by my package forwarding provider.

Final checks for Japanese import

I have learned that importing liquids into Japan requires a little bit of attention. For personal use, I usually keep my orders to a reasonable quantity—typically no more than 24 pieces of a single cosmetic-type item—to avoid any customs issues. Since Touchland contains alcohol, I also ensure that the total volume per package stays within the safety limits for air travel. By following this blueprint, I have managed to keep my hands scented like a tropical vacation while everyone else in the office is stuck with that plain, medicinal-smelling gel from the local drugstore. If you want to shop us ship international, starting with a small, viral item like this is a great way to test the waters.
