A few things I learned while shipping Prequel Skin G10 Multi-Quench Moisturizer to Germany

Why everyone is talking about Prequel Skin G10

I first noticed the Prequel Skin G10 Multi-Quench Moisturizer blowing up on Xiaohongshu and TikTok earlier in 2026. The brand has quickly become a rising star because they focus on clinical-grade ingredients without the massive price tags we usually see at high-end pharmacies. The G10 specifically is famous for its 10% glycerin content, which I found is a total savior for my skin during the dry German winters.

The problem I ran into was the price. In the US, this moisturizer is incredibly accessible, usually retailing for around $20. However, looking at gray-market resellers in Europe or on platforms like eBay, the price was often tripled. I wasn't about to pay $60 for a moisturizer that should be affordable, so I decided to look into how I could shop us store sites directly.

My logic for shopping directly from the US

I found that buying straight from the source in the United States was the only way to ensure I was getting a genuine product. Since Prequel is a US-based brand, shopping their official site or major US retailers is the safest bet. To do this, I needed a tax-free us address. This is where a package forwarding service becomes essential.

I used comGateway to provide me with that US address. It allowed me to check out on US websites that typically don't ship overseas. If you ever find that a US store doesn't accept your German credit card, I highly recommend looking into their proxy shopping option, also known as the BuyForMe service. It makes the whole process much smoother when you're dealing with strict payment gateways.

How I handled the Germany delivery process

Once my Prequel Skin order arrived at my US suite, I had to arrange the Germany delivery. I've found that using a dedicated freight forwarder is much more reliable than hoping a random seller on a marketplace uses a good carrier. My experience with international shipping has taught me that tracking and speed are worth the small extra effort.

Calculating the actual costs for shipping

Before I committed to the purchase, I made sure to use a shipping calculator. This helped me avoid any surprises. By entering the weight of a few bottles of the G10 Multi-Quench Moisturizer, I could estimate shipping cost options to Berlin. It turns out that shipping one bottle might be pricey, but if I bundle three or four bottles (or add in some other US-only brands like Saltair or Naturium), the cost per item drops significantly.

Estimated shipping specs for your package

If you are planning your own order for the Prequel Skin G10 Multi-Quench Moisturizer, here are the numbers I used for my calculations. These should help you get a realistic idea of what your international shipping service will require.

Dealing with German customs and taxes

Living in Germany, we always have to think about the Zoll (customs). Since 2021, the de minimis threshold for VAT is gone, so expect to pay the 19% Einfuhrumsatzsteuer (import VAT) on your order. When I ship to Germany, I find it easiest to have the courier handle the customs clearance. It's much faster than having to drive to a local customs office yourself.

I also suggest keeping your total order value (including shipping) in mind. While shipping skincare is generally straightforward, always ensure you aren't ordering "commercial quantities" (like 20+ bottles), or customs might think you're running a business! For my personal supply of Prequel Skin, shipping 3-4 bottles worked perfectly.

Overall, my journey to get the G10 Multi-Quench Moisturizer was worth it. The texture is like nothing I've found in German drugstores, and by using a shop us ship international strategy, I saved about 40% compared to what the local resellers were asking.
