My Rhode to Singapore and the myth that shipping the Jumbo cream is a total wallet-drainer

Why I needed the Rhode Jumbo Size in my life

It is March 2026 and my obsession with barrier health has reached a peak. When Hailey Bieber announced the Rhode Barrier Restore Cream in a massive 100ml Jumbo Size, I knew I had to have it. The standard size is great, but for those of us in the humid Singapore climate who still need that peptide-rich hydration, the value of the Jumbo version is undeniable. Unfortunately, I quickly realized this specific size is a US webstore exclusive, leaving us here in Singapore at the mercy of resellers who often double the price.

Buy It For Me

I decided to take matters into my own hands. I wanted the authentic experience and the actual savings that come with a value-sized product. We often assume that buying directly from the source is too much of a hassle, but I found that with the right freight forwarder, the process is surprisingly straightforward.

The myth about US-to-Singapore shipping costs

There is a common assumption among my friends that shipping a single tube of moisturizer from Oregon to Singapore would cost more than the cream itself. I was determined to prove them wrong. I used a shipping calculator to get a preliminary idea of what I would be paying. By using a tax-free US address, I already saved on the US sales tax, which usually adds about 7-10% to the price in other states.

I found that when I consolidated my Rhode order with a few other items from my wishlist, the international shipping rates became incredibly manageable. It turns out that shipping small, high-value skincare items is one of the most cost-effective things you can do when you shop US store options from abroad.

Shipping Estimates for your vanity

To help you plan your own haul, I have put together these estimates based on my recent package details. This should help you figure out your own shipping fees before you hit that checkout button.

How I bypassed the US store checkout hurdle

My first attempt to buy the Jumbo cream was a bit of a disaster. I tried using my Singapore-issued credit card, but the Rhode webstore declined it immediately. This is a common issue we face in Singapore; many US retailers like Rhode, Nike, or Sephora often block international cards or flag orders sent to known package forwarding addresses.

This is where I discovered the BuyForMe service. Instead of giving up, I let the experts at comGateway handle the transaction. They used a US domestic card to purchase the item on my behalf. This is the safest way to ensure your order does not get cancelled by picky US retailers. It took the stress out of the purchase, and I didn't have to worry about my funds being held in "pending" limbo for weeks.

My process for getting Rhode to Singapore

If you are looking for a step-by-step guide on how I did it, here is the breakdown. First, I signed up for a free US shipping address. Then, because of the card issues I mentioned, I used the BuyForMe service to place the order. Once the package arrived at my parcel forwarding service warehouse in the US, I received a notification.

I was able to track my Singapore delivery every step of the way. The package arrived at my door in about 6 business days, which is faster than some local deliveries I have waited for! If you are curious about the mechanics, you should definitely read more about how it works to see how easy the integration is.

Checking the rules for skincare shipping

Before you go on a shopping spree, we always recommend checking the prohibited items list. While most lotions and creams are perfectly fine to forward packages, some aerosol-based skincare or high-alcohol content toners might have shipping rules that limit how they can be transported. Luckily, the Rhode Barrier Restore Cream is a standard cream and sailed through customs without a single issue.

By debunking the myth that US shipping is too expensive or too difficult, I have managed to keep my 2026 skincare routine stocked with the best products at the best prices. My Rhode to a better complexion was a lot smoother than I ever imagined.
