My secret for getting the full Kosas BB Burst shade range delivered to the Netherlands

Why I'm obsessed with the Kosas BB Burst formula

I’ve been seeing the Kosas BB Burst Tinted Gel Cream all over my social feeds in 2026. It has become the core of the 'clean girl' aesthetic because it focuses on a skincare-first formula. It isn't just a tint; it’s packed with copper peptides and zinc, which I've found keeps my skin looking hydrated even after I take my makeup off at night. The finish is that perfect 'your skin but better' glow that I've been searching for.

While I love the light coverage, the real reason everyone is talking about it is how it behaves on the skin. It doesn't settle into fine lines, which is a big win for my daily routine. However, as much as I wanted to just pop into a local shop in Amsterdam, I realized quickly that getting the right shade wasn't going to be easy without looking toward the US market.

The struggle of finding my shade in the Netherlands

If you live in the Netherlands like I do, you know the frustration. Local stockists often carry a very limited selection of shades. When I checked my usual Dutch beauty sites, they only had a fraction of the 24 shades that Kosas actually offers in the United States. I have a specific undertone that is almost always sold out or simply not stocked here.

I decided that I wasn't going to settle for a shade that was 'close enough.' I wanted my exact match. This led me to explore how I could shop us store options directly. By looking at US retailers like Sephora US or the official Kosas site, I saw the full spectrum of colors available, which made me realize I needed a better way to get these products home.

How I use a tax-free US address to shop

To get my hands on the full range, I started using a package forwarding service. Since Kosas and many other US beauty brands don't ship directly to my house in the Netherlands, I use a tax-free us address provided by comGateway. This allows me to shop like a local in the US.

When I checkout, I simply put in my assigned Oregon warehouse address. Because Oregon has no sales tax, I save a few extra dollars right at the start. Once my BB Burst arrives at the warehouse, I get a notification and can decide when to ship it to my door. It’s a smooth process that I've used for several high-end beauty hauls this year.

Dealing with stores that block my Dutch credit card

I have run into a few snags when trying to buy from certain US stores. Some retailers, like Sephora or big tech brands, can be quite picky. They often block international credit cards or automatically decline orders that they see are going to a freight forwarder. I’ve had my heart broken by a 'Cancelled Order' email more than once.

This is where I started using the "BuyForMe" service. Instead of me trying to force my Dutch card through their system, I let comGateway handle the purchase. They use a domestic US credit card to buy the Kosas BB Burst on my behalf. It’s the safest way I've found to guarantee my order doesn't get cancelled by strict US payment systems. If you've ever been frustrated by a store rejecting your payment, this service is the answer I always recommend. I just tell them what I want, and they take care of the rest.

What to know about Netherlands delivery and costs

Once the item is in my US suite, I start thinking about the ship to Netherlands process. I always check the shipping calculator first so I know exactly what to expect in terms of costs. It helps me decide if I want to wait and combine my makeup with a pair of sneakers or some clothes to save on the base shipping fee.

For Netherlands delivery, you do have to keep in mind the local VAT and customs duties. Since 2021, all imports into the EU are subject to VAT. I usually find that even with these costs, getting the exact product and shade I want from the US is worth it, especially when I can't find it anywhere else. If I ever have questions about the process, I just check the FAQ on the site, as their support team is quite helpful.

My final thoughts on US beauty hauls

Using an international shipping service has completely changed how I approach my beauty routine. I no longer have to wait months for a product to maybe show up at a local retailer with a limited shade range. By using comGateway, I can participate in the latest trends the moment they drop in the US.

Whether you are looking for the Kosas BB Burst or any other viral product, my advice is to skip the local waitlist and go straight to the source. The combination of a parcel forwarding service and the BuyForMe option makes the whole experience stress-free. Happy shopping from the Netherlands!
