The return of the lanolin formula
Glossier recently reintroduced the original Balm Dotcom formula featuring lanolin and beeswax for its new Strawberry scent. This decision follows a period where the brand transitioned to a vegan formula which received mixed reviews from long-term users. The 2026 market shows that while the vegan version is available globally, the strawberry OG formula is currently restricted to the United States market. Australian consumers often find the original formula more effective for long-lasting hydration compared to the newer plant-based alternatives.
Buying from the Glossier US store
The primary challenge for Australian shoppers is that Glossier does not offer direct shipping to Australia from its US website. To acquire the Strawberry OG formula, you must shop us store inventory directly. Using a US-based shipping address is the most reliable method to circumvent regional shipping restrictions. This allows you to access the same product range available to American customers without waiting for a local release that may not include the lanolin-based version.
International transit through package forwarding
A package forwarding service manages the receipt of your goods in the US and their subsequent dispatch to your Australian home. You can forward packages by simply entering your provided US address at the Glossier checkout. This process is standard for many Australian beauty enthusiasts who want access to exclusive releases. If you have concerns about the reliability of the transit, the support center provides details on insurance and tracking procedures.
Shipping estimates for Australian delivery
Understanding the physical properties of your order helps in calculating total costs. The Glossier Balm Dotcom is a compact item that is very cost-effective to ship internationally.
- Box Weight The estimated weight for a single tube inside a standard mailer is 0.5 kg or roughly 1.1 lbs.
- Box Dimensions The dimensions are small, typically around 15cm x 10cm x 5cm.
- Volumetric Warning This item is dense and small, so it does not trigger high volumetric weight charges.
- Battery Check This product contains no lithium batteries and is safe for standard air travel.
You should use the shipping calculator to get a precise quote for a ship to Australia request. Consolidating multiple tubes into one shipment is a practical way to reduce the per-unit shipping cost.
Australian import duties and GST
The Australian government requires Goods and Services Tax on most items imported from overseas. Check our guide on GST/VAT to understand how these charges are applied to your order. In 2026, the threshold for import duties remains a key consideration for shoppers making large purchases, though single beauty products usually fall under the simplified tax collection process. Maintaining awareness of these regulations prevents unexpected costs during the delivery phase.
