The things I learned while shipping Glossier You from the US to Italy

Why I am still obsessed with Glossier You in 2026

I have spent years looking for a signature scent that doesn't smell like a perfume counter. Even in 2026, Glossier You remains my go-to because of how it reacts with my skin chemistry. It’s a bit of a cult favorite, and while we see plenty of us trends come and go, this fragrance has stayed relevant. Since Glossier still doesn't have a physical boutique in Italy, I have to get creative to keep my vanity stocked.

My experience buying from US stores

I usually start my shopping journey at the official Glossier website or Sephora US. I've noticed that shopping directly from the US often gives me access to better bundles and limited edition releases that never make it across the Atlantic. To do this, I needed a way to shop us store options without being blocked by regional shipping restrictions. I found that having a tax-free us address is the only way to get these items into my hands in Milan.

The freight forwarder I use for my US hauls

I rely on a freight forwarder to bridge the gap between New York and Italy. My process is simple: I ship my Glossier order to my US suite provided by comGateway, and they forward packages directly to my door. It makes the whole process feel like I'm just ordering from a local shop, even though the parcel is crossing the ocean.

What I do when my Italian credit card is declined

We have all been there: you find the perfect product, but the checkout page refuses to accept your Italian credit card. I’ve faced this problem quite a bit with big US retailers like Sephora, Nike, and Apple. They often block international cards or decline orders if they see a forwarding address. It used to be so frustrating for me until I started using the "BuyForMe" service.

When I run into these digital walls, I let the comGateway team handle it. We tell them what we want, and they use a US domestic card to buy the items on our behalf. It is honestly the safest way I've found to guarantee my order doesn't get cancelled at the last minute. If you are tired of your orders being flagged, I highly recommend letting them act as your personal shopper in the States.

Handling import duties and VAT in Italy

I always make sure to factor in the extra costs before I hit the 'buy' button. When shipping to Italy, we have to deal with import duties and VAT. To avoid any surprises at my doorstep, I always use a shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost and potential taxes. It helps me stay within my budget while I’m treating myself to US exclusives. You might also like to check our guide on customs tax if you are new to international shopping.

Checking for restricted goods before I ship

Since Glossier You is an Eau de Parfum, I have to be careful. Fragrances contain alcohol, which means they are sometimes classified as restricted goods. I always make it a habit to double-check the prohibited items list before I finalize my shipment. Most of the time, it just requires special handling or a specific shipping method, but it's better to know the shipping rules upfront so my perfume doesn't get stuck in a warehouse.

My 2026 beauty routine wouldn't be the same without my Glossier stash. Even though I'm thousands of miles away from their Soho store, using a parcel forwarding service makes it feel like I'm just around the corner.
