Buy It For Me

The Iced Coffee shade offers a perfect cool-toned neutral tint with a nostalgic aroma, while Birthday Cake provides a celebratory shimmer that sells out minutes after any restock. While these are frequently featured among the latest us trends, Dutch fans often find themselves staring at "Out of Stock" notifications on local European websites. The demand is high, but the supply in the Netherlands remains frustratingly low.

The US retail advantage for Dutch shoppers

The secret that savvy collectors know is that US retailers like Sephora and the official Summer Fridays site receive much larger inventories and more frequent restocks than their European counterparts. Furthermore, the price point in USD is often significantly lower than the markup seen in EU boutiques. By choosing to shop us store directly, you bypass the local scarcity and get your hands on these viral shades months before they officially hit the shelves in Rotterdam or Amsterdam.

Essential Shipping Estimates for Lip Butter Balms

To help you prepare your budget, here are the logistical facts for importing these items from the US to the Netherlands. While a single lip balm is tiny, shipping it efficiently requires understanding the box dynamics.

You can use a shipping calculator to see how much adding a few more tubes might change your total cost.

Using a freight forwarder for US exclusives

Since many US beauty retailers do not offer direct shipping to the Netherlands, or charge exorbitant fees to do so, using a freight forwarder is the standard workaround. By using a tax-free us address in Oregon, you can avoid US sales tax entirely, keeping the cost of your Summer Fridays haul as low as possible.

Once your balm arrives at the US warehouse, you can use an international shipping service to send it straight to your door. This parcel forwarding service allows you to consolidate multiple orders from different US stores into one box, which significantly reduces the international shipping rates you would otherwise pay for separate deliveries.

Netherlands customs and import considerations

When your package enters the Netherlands, it will be subject to local import rules. As of 2026, all items imported from outside the EU are subject to VAT (BTW), which is currently 21%. For a small, low-value item like a lip balm, the process is usually automated through your chosen international shipping carrier. They may charge a small handling fee to clear the package through customs at Schiphol.

To ensure your delivery goes smoothly, always double-check the current shipping fees and ensure your customs declaration is accurate. If you are ordering the Birthday Cake and Iced Coffee shades together, the combined value is still relatively low, making for a straightforward transit through Dutch customs. Relying on an experienced package forwarding partner ensures that all the paperwork is handled correctly, so your only worry is which shade to apply first.
