My strategy for getting Rhode Skin Peptide Lip Tint Guava and Peach to the Netherlands for US prices
The viral hype of Guava and Peach
I have spent months watching my TikTok feed fill up with the new Rhode Skin Peptide Lip Tint shades. Hailey Bieber’s brand has maintained its momentum well into 2026, and the latest additions—Guava and Peach—are the current stars of the show. Guava provides that perfect bright poppy pink, while Peach gives a warm, sunset-inspired glow that I haven't been able to find in any other formula.
The problem I faced while living in the Netherlands is that the UK and European restocks are notoriously difficult to catch. Every time I checked the European site, these specific shades were sold out within minutes. Meanwhile, I noticed that the US store seems to have much more frequent restocks and higher inventory levels. I decided I was tired of waiting for a local drop that might never happen and started looking at popular products on US storefronts instead.
Why I refuse to buy Rhode in Europe
I did the math on what it would cost to buy from a local reseller in Amsterdam versus buying directly from the US. The price gap is staggering. Local resellers are often charging a 50% to 100% markup on these lip tints because of their viral status. Even when the official European site has stock, the base price in Euros is significantly higher than the US dollar price, even when you account for current exchange rates in 2026.
By choosing to shop us store directly, I pay the original retail price. Even with shipping, the total cost for three or four tubes is often lower than buying two from a local boutique or a third-party seller. I also get access to the full Rhode range, including the peptide lip treatments and the glazing milk, which are frequently bundled with the tints on the US site for even better value.
How I used a US address to buy Rhode
Rhode’s US website does not ship directly to the Netherlands, which is where my plan almost hit a wall. To get around this, I needed a tax-free us address. I signed up for a service that provides a dedicated warehouse address in a US state with no sales tax, which allowed me to check out on the Rhode website just like a US resident would.
Once my order reached the warehouse, I used a package forwarding service to send the items across the Atlantic. I’ve found that using a freight forwarder is the most reliable way to ensure the package is handled correctly and that I have control over the final delivery speed. I was able to forward packages from multiple US stores and combine them into one box, which significantly reduced my overall costs.
Shipping estimates for the Netherlands
When I was planning my order, I wanted to know exactly what I was getting into regarding costs. Since I was only ordering a few lip tints and maybe a blush, the package was quite small. I used a tool to estimate shipping cost before I hit the buy button. Here are the estimates I worked with for a standard Rhode order.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Box Weight | Approx. 0.2 kg (0.44 lbs) for 2-3 lip tints |
| Box Dimensions | Small (Approx. 15cm x 10cm x 5cm) |
| Volumetric Warning | Low risk. These items are dense and small; you won't be charged extra for size. |
| Battery Check | None. These products contain no lithium batteries. |
I recommend that if you are already paying for Netherlands delivery, you should maximize your box space. Adding a few more small items like the Rhode Pocket Blush or a cleanser won't change the weight significantly but will make the shipping cost per item much lower. You can use the shipping calculator to see how adding weight affects the final price.
Handling Dutch import tax and VAT
One thing I always keep in mind when I ship to Netherlands is the local customs regulations. In 2026, the Netherlands continues to apply VAT to all incoming packages from outside the EU. I made sure to check the latest rules on import duties to avoid any surprises at my doorstep.
Usually, for a small cosmetics order, you will be looking at the standard 21% VAT plus a small handling fee from the courier. I prefer to use a buy from US ship to Netherlands route that allows me to pre-pay these fees or at least gives me a clear breakdown of the customs tax before the package arrives. This way, I don't have to deal with the postnl app notifications asking for unexpected payments while my package is held at the border.
My experience getting the Guava and Peach shades was seamless once I had the right logistics in place. While it takes a few extra days to arrive from the US compared to a local delivery, the fact that I actually have the products in my hand—at a fair price—makes it the only way I'll be shopping for Rhode Skin in the future.
