Why everyone in Taiwan wants the Rhode Spring 2026 collection
It is February 2026, and Hailey Bieber’s Rhode is still the most talked-about beauty brand in my group chats. The latest Spring shades for the Peptide Lip Tint just dropped as US-exclusives, and they are honestly stunning. While we wait for international retail expansions that never seem to happen, these shades are selling out within minutes of every restock on the US site.
For those of us in Taiwan, the temptation is to head straight to Shopee or local IG resellers. However, those markups are wild. By the time a reseller adds their profit margin and local shipping, you are often paying double the original price. I realized that if you shop us store directly and use a tax-free us address, the math actually works out in your favor.
The myth about US shipping costs being too high
A lot of people here think that shipping a single lip tint from the US to Taiwan will cost more than the product itself. That is the big myth I want to clear up. When you use the right freight forwarder, you can consolidate items or use small-parcel rates that keep your budget intact. I managed to save about NT$500 on a set of three tints by buying them myself rather than going through a middleman.
To see exactly what I mean, you should play around with a shipping calculator. You will see that for small, light beauty products, the cost is much lower than people assume. You can even check the latest international shipping rates to compare different speeds and courier options for Taipei or Kaohsiung.
Shipping Estimates for Rhode Lip Tints
If you are planning to grab the new spring shades, here is the breakdown of what you can expect for your package stats. This helps you plan your shipment and avoid surprises.
| Box Weight | Approx. 0.4 lbs (0.2 kg) for a 3-pack of tints. |
| Box Dimensions | Small (typically a bubble mailer or a very small 6x4x4 inch box). |
| Volumetric Warning | Very low risk. These items are dense and small, so you won't be charged extra for "air space." |
| Battery Check | No lithium batteries. These are standard cosmetics. |
Since these are liquid-adjacent creams, it is always a good idea to check the prohibited items list just to stay updated on current airline safety regulations for 2026. Usually, lip tints are perfectly fine for international shipping.
Getting around Rhode's strict payment filters with BuyForMe
Here is the tricky part about Rhode. Like many popular US brands such as Sephora or Nike, the Rhode website can be very picky. They often block orders that use non-US credit cards or addresses associated with freight forwarders. It is incredibly frustrating to see that "Order Cancelled" email hit your inbox ten minutes after a successful checkout.
This is where the "BuyForMe" service at comGateway becomes a lifesaver. Instead of you struggling with your Taiwan-issued Visa or Mastercard, you just tell them what you want. They use a US domestic card and a residential-style purchasing flow to buy the items on your behalf. It is the safest way to guarantee you actually get your hands on those limited edition spring shades before they sell out again. If you have questions about how the service handles specific stores, the FAQ section has a great breakdown of the assisted purchase process.
Making the Taiwan import process easy
Once your Rhode package arrives at your US suite and you ready it for international shipping, remember the Taiwan customs rules for 2026. Keep your total value (including shipping) under NT$2,000 to stay within the tax-free limit. If you are a frequent shopper, make sure your EZ WAY app is updated and your real-name authentication is active. This ensures your lip tints don't get stuck at the border.
By bypassing the resellers and buying directly from the US, you aren't just saving money; you are also ensuring you get 100% authentic products straight from the source. Happy shopping!
