My wife is wanting to have some lotions (only available in the Ph) shipped from the Philippines to her here in the US.

Does anyone know of a way to get them sent here?

She tried to have her parents ship through FedEx, but they wouldn't allow it. Any thoughts/ideas are appreciated in advance.

I brought some juice back for my dad when I came back to the US. I put it in my check-in luggage. As for fed-ex, etc.. we also looked thru those options, and nobody allowed shipping of juice, even if it was used for medical purposes. But since the item you want to ship is lotion, you could try to contact them and see if they will allow it.

I've looked at ebay, but the cost plus shipping is slightly high.

Can you give me some links to the Ph sites?

Thanks!

She's already here in the US.

Try ebay.ph or sulit.com.ph or contact peeps from CA. I am sure they have anything that's Filipino there, papaya whitening products, firming lotion, magic sarap, bagoong :P

Try this website. http://www.philamfood.com/

The price are 4 times of what it cost in philippines but average cost for the same here in USA.

I ordered my wife's facial and hair care products from this site. Also seasonings and other goods from the Philippines.

If you know where to go, you can get just about anything here in the USA. I live in a relatively rural area of the Northwest USA and with some questions and looking I have found a local supply bangus, balut, lambanog, mangisteen, durian and anything else I have wanted. And while it will cost much more than it does in the Phils, it is generally in line with similar prices for USA goods and much much cheaper than shipping.

Look and ask.

There is a lot to be discovered locally.

I had trouble buying the NIVEA whitening products at some stores in Makati even... bought the wrong stuff ... not good :blush:

I have wondered about finding any of these here in the States.
