Save $25 on Summer Fridays Iced Coffee Lip Butter Balm by shopping at US Sephora from New Zealand

The Logic Behind the Iced Coffee Hype

As of February 2026, the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm in Iced Coffee remains the most sought-after shade in the brand’s lineup. The reason for its persistence in the us trends cycle is simple: it offers the perfect neutral brown tint that mimics a natural lip shadow, paired with a scent that has achieved legendary status on social media platforms. Unlike many glosses that rely on sticky polymers, this vegan formula uses shea and murumuru seed butters to provide lasting hydration without the tacky residue.

More about shipping to New Zealand

The Iced Coffee shade specifically fills a gap for New Zealand beauty enthusiasts who want a sophisticated, everyday color that works across all skin tones. While other shades like Cherry or Pink Sugar are widely available, Iced Coffee frequently sells out within minutes of a restock, making it a high-commodity item for those following us trends.

Why New Zealand Shoppers Struggle Locally

In New Zealand, the availability of niche US beauty brands is often limited to a few high-end retailers. These stores frequently face stock delays, receiving inventory months after the US launch. Furthermore, the price markup in local boutiques can be significant. By the time a product like the Iced Coffee balm reaches Auckland or Wellington, the price has often been inflated to cover local overhead and distribution costs.

Shopping directly from the US allows you to access the source. Using a tax-free us address provided by comGateway ensures you are paying the original retail price without added US state taxes, which often makes the purchase more economical even after considering shipping costs.

Overcoming US Store Payment Blocks with BuyForMe

One of the most frustrating aspects of international shopping is reaching the checkout stage only to have your order cancelled. This is a common occurrence for shoppers in New Zealand trying to buy from major US retailers like Sephora, Nike, or Apple.

The Payment Problem Explained

Many US-based online stores have strict security protocols that automatically decline transactions made with international credit cards. Even if your card is enabled for global use, the store's system may flag the billing address if it does not match a US zip code. Additionally, some retailers specifically block addresses known to belong to a freight forwarder. This means that even if you have a US shipping address, your order might still be cancelled because your payment method is identified as non-domestic.

How BuyForMe Guarantees Your Order

The solution to these merchant blocks is the comGateway "BuyForMe" service. Instead of you struggling with a declined card, comGateway acts as your purchasing agent. Their team uses US-based payment methods and domestic billing addresses to buy the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm on your behalf.

This service removes the risk of order cancellations. You simply tell the team what you want to buy, pay comGateway using your local New Zealand card or PayPal, and they handle the entire transaction with the US store. It is the most reliable way to secure limited-edition releases or items from stores that typically refuse international customers.

Shipping from the USA to New Zealand

Once your Summer Fridays balm arrives at your tax-free us address, the next step is getting it to New Zealand. This is where a specialized international shipping service becomes essential. Because a single lip balm is lightweight, it is often more cost-effective to combine it with other purchases from various US stores.

If you are new to this process, review the how it works guide. The process involves four basic steps:

• Shop your favorite US stores.
• Send your packages to your personal US address.
• Notify the warehouse when you are ready to ship.
• Receive your items in New Zealand via DHL or FedEx.

Calculating Your Landed Cost

Before you commit to a purchase, it is important to understand the total cost. You can use a shipping calculator to get an estimate of the delivery fees from the US to your specific city in New Zealand.

New Zealand GST and Import Regulations 2026

In 2026, New Zealand continues to apply a 15% Goods and Services Tax (GST) on all imported goods, regardless of value. When you use comGateway, the shipping process is streamlined to ensure you comply with these regulations. For most consumer goods like cosmetics, the GST is often collected at the point of shipping or upon arrival, depending on the current carrier agreements. If you have specific questions about customs duties for larger hauls, the FAQ section provides detailed answers regarding prohibited items and tax thresholds.

By leveraging the BuyForMe service and efficient package forwarding, you can secure the Summer Fridays Iced Coffee Lip Butter Balm without the stress of local stockouts or payment rejections. The logic is clear: buying from the source is the only way to guarantee you get the 2026's most viral beauty products at a fair price.
