The hype behind the new 2026 Rhode shades
I have spent the last few weeks watching my social feed explode with the new limited-edition shades of Rhode Peptide Lip Tint. Hailey Bieber seems to have a direct line to what my makeup bag needs, and the 2026 collection is no exception. These new tints are trending because they offer that perfect sheer-but-buildable pigment that we just cannot find in local drugstores here in Malaysia. I always check the latest popular products and us trends to see what is popping, and Rhode is consistently at the top of the list.
The problem I face is that Rhode does not officially ship to Malaysia. This lack of availability creates a massive secondary market where local resellers mark up the prices significantly. I refuse to pay double for a lip tint just because I live in Southeast Asia. I want that glassy finish without feeling like I have been taken for a ride by a middleman.
The math of buying from the US versus Malaysian resellers
I did some quick calculations to see if my DIY import strategy actually makes sense. In February 2026, a single Rhode Peptide Lip Tint retails for about $16 USD on the official site. That is roughly RM 70 based on current exchange rates. When I look at Instagram resellers or local shopping platforms in Malaysia, these same tints are being sold for RM 150 to RM 190. That is a markup of over 100 percent.
We can look at a bundle purchase to see the real savings. If I buy four tints, my cost is $64 USD (RM 280). Even when I add the cost to shop us store and ship it here, the total per unit remains significantly lower than buying locally. By using comGateway, I can access a tax-free us address in Oregon, which means I do not even pay US sales tax on my purchase. My budget stays intact, and my lips look fantastic.
How I use a freight forwarder for my beauty hauls
I realized early on that the only way to get these exclusive items is to use a freight forwarder. Since Rhode only ships within specific regions, I provide them with my Oregon warehouse address. If you are new to this, I recommend looking at this step-by-step guide on how it works.
Once my tints arrive at the warehouse, I get a notification. I usually wait until I have a few other items from different stores like Sephora or Nike before I ship them to Malaysia. This consolidation saves me even more money. I found that the support team and the FAQ section are very helpful if I ever get stuck with the technicalities of international shipping.
The BuyForMe solution for stubborn US stores
I have run into a few frustrating situations where my Malaysian credit card was flat-out rejected by US websites. Some stores like Nike or Apple are notorious for blocking international billing addresses or flagging orders sent to forwarding addresses. This happened to me once when I tried to buy a limited-edition kit, and my order was cancelled within minutes. I felt defeated until I discovered proxy shopping.
Now, I use the BuyForMe service for these difficult stores. Basically, comGateway buys the item on my behalf using a US domestic credit card. This is the safest way to guarantee my order does not get cancelled by a picky checkout system. It acts as an assisted purchase that removes the headache of card compatibility. I simply tell them what I want, and they handle the transaction. It is a lifesaver for those high-demand Rhode drops where every second counts.
Check these shipping rules before you ship
I always make sure to double-check the shipping rules before I finalize my cart. While lip tints are generally safe, some beauty products like aerosol sprays or high-alcohol perfumes are considered prohibited items or restricted goods. I would hate for my package to get stuck at the warehouse because I accidentally ordered a flammable perfume. I suggest you check the prohibited items list every time you try a new brand just to be safe.
Estimating my total costs for a haul
I never like surprises when it comes to my bank statement. Before I hit the 'buy' button, I always use the shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost to Malaysia. This helps me decide if I should add more items to my shipment to maximize the weight limit. In my experience, shipping a small box of makeup is very affordable, especially if I choose the right shipping speed.
I have found that the total cost of my Rhode tints, including the forwarding fees, still beats the prices of those greedy resellers every single time. My strategy is simple: buy direct, use a proxy if needed, and consolidate. We deserve to have the same viral beauty products as everyone else without the ridiculous local markup.
