Why am I getting my Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray refills from the US instead of local shops?

My skin struggles in the Singapore heat

Living in Singapore in 2026, the humidity and heat are constants that my skin just can't seem to get used to. Between the sweat and the occasional need for masks in crowded spaces, 'maskne' and heat rashes became a regular part of my life. That is when I found the Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray. It uses hypochlorous acid to soothe inflammation and kill bacteria, which is a lifesaver for my sensitive skin.

While I could find the smaller 4oz bottles locally, I was going through them far too quickly. I needed a more sustainable and affordable way to keep my skin calm without constantly running to the store. I started looking for a bulk option and found that the US offers a massive 16oz refill bottle that simply isn't available on our local shelves.

The price gap that changed my shopping habits

When I did the math, I was shocked. Buying the 16oz refill size from a US store like Sephora or the official Tower 28 website saves me over 40% per ounce compared to buying four individual 4oz bottles in Singapore. Even with the cost of international shipping, the savings are substantial. It felt like I had been overspending for a long time just because I wasn't looking at the US market.

To make sure I was actually saving money, I used a shipping calculator to see what the final landed cost would be. Even after adding the shipping fees, the cost per ml was significantly lower than any local price I could find. This price gap is the main reason I now prefer to shop US store options for my skincare staples.

Why the 16oz refill?

The 16oz size is designed to refill your existing spray bottles. It is a more eco-friendly choice and ensures I don't run out during the hottest months of the year. Since it is a US-exclusive value size, using a freight forwarder is the only way to get it delivered to my doorstep here in Singapore.

How I ordered the 16oz refill from the US

I followed a simple step-by-step guide to set up my US shipping address. I used my tax-free US address provided by my forwarder, which meant I didn't have to pay any US sales tax on my purchase. This added even more to my total savings.

Once my order reached the warehouse, I was notified immediately. I always check the FAQ or the help center if I have questions about how long the warehouse will hold my items. For this specific order, I chose to ship it alone because it was already such a great deal.

Shipping Estimates and Logistics

If you are planning to grab this 16oz refill, here is what you can expect regarding the logistics. These estimates help me plan my budget before I hit the checkout button.

I usually check the international shipping rates before finalizing my order to see if I should add more items to my shipment to maximize the shipping cost. You might also like to check our guide on bundling multiple skincare products to save on weight.

Singapore import and GST tips for 2026

In 2026, we have to be mindful of the GST (Goods and Services Tax) on all imported goods. I always keep my total purchase value, including shipping, in mind when importing. Before I ship anything, I double-check the prohibited items list just to be 100% sure that my skincare products don't contain any restricted goods that might get held up at customs.

By using a reliable international shipping service, I can track my package from the US warehouse all the way to my home in Singapore. The process is much smoother than I initially expected, and the relief my skin feels during a 34-degree day makes every bit of the effort worth it. If you have any doubts, the support team at your forwarder is usually very responsive to help you navigate the process.
