How To Shop Your Favourite Japanese Brands From Singapore & At Lower Prices
With the yen reaching unprecedented lows, there’s no better time to treat yourself to Japanese fashion and lifestyle products. The good news is that even if a trip to Japan isn’t on the horizon, you can still secure your favourites through online shopping. However, navigating your favourite Japanese online stores is no easy feat. They either charge exorbitant international shipping fees; don’t ship to Singapore altogether; or require shoppers to explore their offerings solely in their native language.
To circumvent these challenges, simply make use of Buyandship’s proxy shopping services! With a self-operated warehouse located in Japan, Buyandship offers not just affordable shipping rates but also free parcel consolidation.

That’s not all, GirlStyle readers are also entitled to an exclusive perk, which will be disclosed at the end of this article.
Want to know how this streamlined process works? Follow me as I try to order an item from Daytona Park, a popular fashion e-commerce site, even though I don’t understand a lick of Japanese.
The first step is to go to ‘My Account’ and insert the link of the item under the ‘Buyforyou’ section.
