My lazy freight forwarder method for getting the Dr. Relaxin Botox Stick from the US

March 07, 2026

Why I needed the Dr. Relaxin Botox Stick

I saw the Dr. Relaxin Botox Stick all over my TikTok feed last week. It is currently a viral hit in the US for its ability to smooth out fine lines almost instantly. As someone living in the Philippines, I am always on the lookout for the latest skincare innovations, but this product is currently a US exclusive. I knew I had to get my hands on it, but I didn't want to deal with the usual headache of international logistics in 2026.

I keep track of us trends to see what is worth my money, and this stick consistently topped the list for effectiveness and ease of use.

The US shopping hurdle

The biggest problem with TikTok Shop US hits is that most sellers do not ship directly to Manila. Even if they do, the shipping fees are often higher than the product itself. I also ran into issues where my local credit card was declined at checkout. I needed a way to shop us store sites without these restrictions.

My lazy shortcut using comGateway

I decided to use a freight forwarder to simplify everything. I chose comGateway because they provide a tax-free us address in Oregon. This means I don't have to pay US sales tax, which saves me money right from the start. Since I wanted the absolute easiest experience, I looked into their proxy shopping service, also known as "Buy for Me." I simply sent them the link to the Dr. Relaxin Botox Stick, and they handled the purchase on my behalf.

Using an international shipping service like this allowed me to bypass the store's refusal of my local card and their lack of international shipping options.

Shipping Estimates for the Philippines

Before I bought it, I used the shipping calculator to get an idea of the total cost. Here is my estimate for shipping a single Dr. Relaxin Botox Stick to the Philippines:

Metric Estimate
Box Weight Approx. 0.3 kg (including mailer and protective padding)
Box Dimensions Small (Approx. 15cm x 10cm x 5cm)
Volumetric Warning Low. This item is compact and dense, so you will likely be charged by actual weight rather than volumetric weight.
Battery Check None. This is a topical balm stick and does not contain lithium batteries.

Handling import tax without the stress

One of the things that usually scares me about international shipping is the customs process. However, in the Philippines, we have a de minimis threshold of 10,000 PHP. As long as my total purchase (including shipping to the US address) stayed under that amount, I didn't have to worry about heavy import tax. I always check the latest updates on import duties to make sure I'm not in for a surprise at the border.

My step-by-step guide to shipping from the US

If you want to try this lazy method, here is exactly how I did it:

  • I signed up for a free account to get my own US shipping address.
  • I used the "Buy for Me" feature to have them purchase the Dr. Relaxin Botox Stick for me.
  • Once the item arrived at the warehouse, I received a notification.
  • I selected my preferred courier—I usually choose DHL international shipping for speed or FedEx international shipping for reliability.
  • I paid the shipping fee and waited for it to arrive at my door in the Philippines.

This method took all the stress out of buying a viral US product. I didn't have to fill out complex forms or talk to customs officials. It just showed up at my house.
