Don't lose your money on Summer Fridays Iced Matcha resellers: How I ship from the US to Belgium safely

March 24, 2026

Why the Iced Matcha Lip Butter Balm is viral right now

I have seen the French TikTok community go wild over the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm in 'Iced Matcha'. It is the 2026 must-have beauty item. This limited edition flavor is currently a US exclusive, which means fans in Brussels or Antwerp are often left waiting for months before European boutiques like Cult Beauty or Space NK even get a hint of stock. If you want it before it sells out globally, you have to shop US store sites directly.

The risk of your order being canceled by US stores

I have learned the hard way that major US retailers like Sephora, Apple, and even the official Summer Fridays site have strict security protocols. They often block orders that use international credit cards or those that are sent to known warehouse addresses. If you use a Belgian credit card, there is a high chance your order will be flagged and canceled within minutes. This is frustrating and can tie up your funds for days. To avoid this, I stopped trying to force my local card through their systems.

My solution for blocked credit cards: BuyForMe

When I encounter a store that refuses my payment, I use the comGateway BuyForMe service. This is my preferred method for proxy shopping because it eliminates the risk of cancellation. Basically, we tell comGateway what we want, and they buy the item on our behalf using a US domestic credit card. This guarantees the order is accepted as a local US transaction. It is the safest way I have found to secure limited drops like the Iced Matcha balm without the headache of payment errors.

How I manage international shipping to Belgium

Once the item is purchased, I need a way to get it across the Atlantic. I use a freight forwarder to provide me with a tax-free US address in Oregon. This address allows me to avoid US sales tax, which saves me money immediately. From there, I can manage my international shipping preferences. I usually check the shipping calculator before I buy to see exactly how much the Belgium delivery will cost. For a small item like a lip balm, I often wait until I have a few more items to ship together to reduce the overall international shipping rates.

What you need to know about Belgian import tax

I never ignore the reality of customs. When you ship to Belgium, you must account for the local VAT and potential administrative fees. Since the balm is a lower-cost item, the import tax might be minimal, but it is always better to be prepared. Check our guide on import tax and duties to understand how Belgian customs calculate these fees so you don't get a surprise bill at your door.

My step-by-step guide to getting the balm

If you want to ensure your package arrives in Belgium without a hitch, I recommend following this step-by-step guide:

  • Step 1: Sign up for a freight forwarder account to get your US address.
  • Step 2: Use the BuyForMe service to place your order for the Summer Fridays Iced Matcha balm.
  • Step 3: Once it arrives at the warehouse, check the shipping fees and select your preferred carrier, like DHL or FedEx.
  • Step 4: Track your package until it reaches your doorstep in Belgium.

I find that using a professional freight forwarder is much cheaper than buying from resellers on eBay or Depop, who often mark up the price by 300%. By buying directly from the US source, I get the authentic product at the real retail price.
