Japanese Body Care and Deodorants Shipped to the USA: Sticks, Sheets, Hand Creams and Body Milks

Japanese body care is practical and very focused: deodorants come in many formats and are often unscented, body sheets are made for freshening up without a shower, hand creams are sold in small tubes for daily use, and some body lotions are designed to be applied in the bath while the skin is still wet. This guide covers the main types, eight products from the Eurasia Japan catalog that can be shipped to the United States, and what to know about ordering body care from Tokyo to a US address.

Japanese deodorants: why this guide features sticks

Japanese deodorants come as sprays, roll-ons, creams, body milks, sticks and wet sheets. Not all of them travel equally well by international mail:

• Aerosol sprays cannot be shipped at all: Japan Post does not accept aerosols for international mail.
• Liquid and cream deodorants (roll-ons, creams, milks) are accepted by the post only with a composition document from the manufacturer; if the manufacturer does not provide one, we cannot ship the item.
• Solid sticks and dry or wet sheets are the simplest formats to send.

That is why the deodorant picks below are sticks and sheets. If it turns out after payment that an item cannot be sent to your country, we cancel that item and refund its price in full.

Many Japanese deodorants are quasi-drugs (医薬部外品), a Japanese category for products with an active ingredient. They are made for the Japanese market, their labels are in Japanese, and they have not been assessed by the FDA. The descriptions below repeat the manufacturers' own information.

How to choose a deodorant format

• Stick: a solid product applied directly to the underarm; hands stay clean, and it is easy to carry.
• Sheets: pre-moistened wipes, often with a powder that dries to a smooth finish, for refreshing during the day at work, while traveling or after the gym. They complement a deodorant rather than replace it.
• Unscented versions (無香料): most Japanese lines offer one, worth choosing if you are sensitive to fragrance or want to wear perfume separately.

Hand creams and body lotions

Japanese hand creams are usually light, quick-absorbing and sold in tubes for a bag or desk drawer. For the body, two formats stand out: a classic body milk applied after the shower, and in-bath lotions that you apply to wet skin before towelling off, which is quicker than waiting for the skin to dry.

Building an order over the minimum

The minimum order for the United States is ¥8,000 in products, and shipping is not counted towards it. Deodorant sticks and hand creams are small, so many people combine them with a larger item such as a body milk, or add hair care and skincare to the same parcel. Refill packs like the Biore u hanging pack are a practical way to stock up on daily products.

Ordering body care to the United States

Eurasia Japan ships original Japanese products to the US directly from Tokyo, and every item is a single retail pack with a JAN code. We buy from Japanese manufacturers, their distributors and Japanese retail stores.

• US duty is prepaid at checkout. Since 29 August 2025 US duty applies to every parcel. We calculate the US import duty (12.5% of the goods value) and the customs clearance fee at checkout and include them in your payment, using a duty-prepaid (DDP) label processed through Zonos. There is nothing to pay on delivery, and the cart shows an estimate before you check out.
• Prices in US dollars, payment in yen. US visitors see dollar prices by default; the card is charged in Japanese yen through Stripe (Visa, Mastercard, JCB, American Express).
• Dispatch. Items from our Tokyo warehouse usually ship within 3-5 business days of payment, items sourced to order within 7-10 business days; each product page shows which applies. These are estimates, and Japanese holiday periods can add time.
• Tracking and insurance. A tracking number appears in your account once the parcel ships, and every parcel is insured for the full value of the goods.
• Cashback. 5% of every order comes back to your account as cashback in yen once the order is delivered.

All details for US buyers are on the shipping to the United States page.

Returns

Unopened items in their original sealed packaging can be returned within 14 days of delivery: email info@eurasiajp.com with your order number first, and we send you the return address in Japan. Return shipping is paid by the customer, and opened cosmetics cannot be returned for hygiene reasons. An order can be cancelled within 48 hours of payment while it has not shipped. Full terms are on the Returns & Claims page.

Frequently asked questions

Do I pay customs or duty when the parcel arrives in the US? No. The US import duty and the customs clearance fee are calculated at checkout and included in your payment, so there is nothing to pay on delivery.

Can I order a Japanese deodorant spray to the US? No. Aerosol sprays are not accepted for international mail from Japan. Sticks and sheets are the simplest alternatives.

Why are roll-on deodorants not in this list? Liquid and cream deodorants are accepted by the post only with a composition document from the manufacturer, so not every roll-on can be shipped. Sticks do not have this limitation, which is why this guide features them.

Is there a minimum order? Yes, ¥8,000 in products for the United States. Shipping is not counted towards it.
