Why getting the Summer Fridays Spring 2026 shades from the US is the best move for Belgium shoppers

March 11, 2026

The logic behind the Spring 2026 viral success

Currently in the beauty community, everyone is talking about the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm Spring 2026 Limited Edition shades. If you have been scrolling through Xiaohongshu, you have likely seen the swatches of the new 'Mint Blossom' and 'Petal Glaze' colors. These shades are currently exclusive to US Sephora and the official Summer Fridays website, meaning they are nowhere to be found in mainland China or local European boutiques yet.

You can save €15 on every limited edition tube by ordering directly from the US Sephora site instead of paying the inflated prices on local resale apps. The formula remains a fan favorite for its vegan silkiness, but the 2026 seasonal packaging is what has collectors rushing to checkout. Since these are limited runs, the stock usually vanishes before a global rollout even begins.

Securing your stash from US stores

Since the official site often restricts international shipping, many fans in Belgium use a freight forwarder to bridge the gap. By using comGateway, you get a tax-free US address to use at checkout. This allows you to shop US store locations just like a local resident would, avoiding the immediate "out of stock" or "shipping not available" messages for European addresses.

When you are ready to ship your haul, you can use the shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost before the package even arrives at the warehouse. This helps you decide if you want to add more items to your cart to make the most of the shipping fees. You might also like to check our FAQ for tips on consolidating multiple orders into one box.

Shipping Estimates for Summer Fridays Balms

To help you plan your budget, here is a breakdown of what to expect when shipping these specific beauty items to Belgium.

Metric Estimate
Box Weight Approx. 0.3 kg to 0.5 kg (for 1-3 tubes in a standard mailer)
Box Dimensions Small (Approx. 15cm x 10cm x 5cm)
Volumetric Warning Low risk. These items are compact and heavy enough for their size that volumetric weight usually does not apply.
Battery Check No lithium batteries. Standard shipping rules apply.

Because these balms are small, they are perfect for adding to a larger haul of US-exclusive clothing or tech to reduce the average cost per item. Always check the prohibited items list to ensure you aren't adding any restricted goods like pressurized aerosols to your package, as these follow different shipping rules.

Importing your package to Belgium

When your package arrives in Belgium, it will be subject to local regulations. Understanding import duties and VAT is essential for any international shopper. Since 2021, all items imported into the EU are subject to VAT, regardless of value. You should prepare for the customs tax or import tax that might be collected upon delivery or handled through the courier service.

Check our guide on GST/VAT for more specific details on how Belgium handles high-value beauty imports. Being aware of these costs upfront ensures there are no surprises when the postman knocks on your door in Brussels or Antwerp.

The step-by-step guide to US shopping

If you have never shopped from the US before, the how it works page provides a great step-by-step guide. Essentially, you sign up for an account, get your US address, and use it at the Sephora checkout. Once comGateway receives your Summer Fridays balms, you will get a notification to ship them to Belgium.

If you run into any issues during the checkout process on US sites, the support team at the help center can assist with purchasing. Using a freight forwarder is the most reliable method to ensure you don't miss out on the Spring 2026 drops before they sell out for good. It is a simple way to get those Xiaohongshu-approved aesthetics delivered right to your doorstep.
