I saved £50 on the Sephora Give Me Some Lip set by shipping from the US to the UK

Why I wanted the Sephora Give Me Some Lip set

I keep a close eye on us trends to see which beauty kits offer the best value for my money. In February 2026, the Sephora Favorites Valentine's Day 'Give Me Some Lip' Set stood out as the clear winner. This set is a US exclusive, meaning I cannot find it on the shelves in London or Manchester. It typically contains five or six high-end lip products, including full-size items from brands like Rare Beauty, Charlotte Tilbury, and Fenty Beauty.

Buy It For Me

I find these curated kits much more economical than buying individual products. The total retail value of the items inside usually exceeds $100, but Sephora sells the set for around $45. For me, this is the most efficient way to refresh my makeup collection for 2026 without spending hundreds of pounds.

My price comparison between US and UK options

I did the math to see if importing this set was actually cheaper than buying similar products locally. In the UK, a single high-end lipstick now averages £25 to £30. Buying five of them would cost me at least £125. Even with the current exchange rate and shipping fees, the US set is significantly more affordable. My total expenditure, including the product and the courier fee, came to roughly £72. That is a £53 saving compared to buying the contents separately in the UK.

Before I committed to the purchase, I used a shipping calculator to get a clear picture of the total cost. I wanted to make sure the shipping fees didn't wipe out the savings I found on the US price tag. It turned out that because the lip set is lightweight, the international delivery cost was very reasonable.

The method I used to buy from the US

I realized quickly that Sephora US does not ship directly to my house. To get around this, I signed up for comGateway to get a tax-free us address. This allowed me to shop on the US website just like a local resident. I simply entered my assigned US address at checkout, and Sephora delivered the package to the warehouse in Oregon. This is particularly helpful because Oregon has no sales tax, which kept my initial purchase price as low as possible.

I prefer using a freight forwarder because it gives me control over when my package is sent. Once my lip set arrived at the warehouse, I received a notification and could choose my preferred shipping speed for the final leg of the journey to the UK.

Shipping estimates and logistics

I have provided the following estimates based on my 2026 purchase of the Sephora Favorites Valentine's Day 'Give Me Some Lip' Set to help you plan your own shipment.

Since the box is relatively small and light, I found that I could often add a few more small beauty items to my order without increasing the shipping tier. This makes the cost per item even lower.

Managing United Kingdom delivery and taxes

When I arranged my ship to United Kingdom, I had to account for UK VAT. Since the value of the set is under the £135 threshold for customs duty, I only had to deal with the standard 20% VAT. My forwarder handled the paperwork, which made the process straightforward. If you have questions about specific items, I recommend checking the FAQ or the help center to see the latest rules for 2026.

My United Kingdom delivery arrived within five business days of leaving the US warehouse. I was able to track the package the entire time. Buying the Sephora Favorites Valentine's Day 'Give Me Some Lip' Set this way was the only way I could get my hands on these specific shades while keeping my budget intact. If you want high-end US beauty products without the high-end UK markup, this is my preferred strategy.
