How I secured the Rhode Summer Glaze bundle from the US to Belgium in record time

May 16, 2026

Why I had to get the Summer Glaze bundle

I have been watching the 2026 Rhode Skin releases very closely, and the 'Summer Glaze' Lip Case & Peptide Treatment Bundle is the one item I refused to miss. Hailey Bieber’s brand has hit a new level of viral fame lately, especially with the 'clean girl' aesthetic that is dominating my social feeds. The bundle includes the iconic silicone phone case specifically designed to hold a Peptide Lip Treatment, making it the must-have accessory for summer 2026.

The problem is that Rhode remains notoriously difficult to acquire if you live in Europe. I realized quickly that the brand still does not offer direct shipping to Belgium. I saw how fast these were selling out in the US, and I knew I needed a fast, reliable way to get my hands on one before the summer season peaked.

The difficulty of buying from US stores in Belgium

My first attempt to buy the bundle was a disaster. I tried using my Belgian credit card on the official US store, but the transaction was flagged immediately. We often forget that many major US retailers, including beauty brands and tech giants like Sephora or Apple, have strict filters against international payment methods. Even if you have a shipping address in the States, they often decline orders that don't match a US-based billing address.

I also discovered that some stores are quick to cancel orders if they detect a package forwarding address. I needed a way to appear as a domestic buyer to ensure my 'Summer Glaze' bundle wouldn't be stuck in a cancellation loop. I knew I needed a tax-free US address to keep costs down, but the payment hurdle was my biggest roadblock.

My secret to avoiding order cancellations

This is where I used the BuyForMe service. This assisted purchase option was the only way I could guarantee my order went through. I simply told the comGateway team what I wanted, and they bought the bundle on my behalf using a US domestic credit card. This completely bypassed the international card rejection issue I faced earlier.

I found this to be the safest way to shop because it eliminates the risk of the store flagging my Belgian banking details. If you are trying to buy high-demand items that sell out in minutes, you cannot afford to have a 'payment declined' email hit your inbox an hour later. By using a service where the step-by-step guide is clearly laid out, I secured my bundle on the first try.

How I managed the international shipping process

Once the BuyForMe team confirmed my purchase, the bundle was sent to my US suite. I didn't want any surprises regarding the cost, so I used the shipping calculator to get an idea of the total landed cost to Belgium. Because the lip case and peptide treatment are lightweight, the shipping fees were very reasonable.

I chose a fast international shipping service because I wanted my items in time for my June holiday. I have used comGateway before for larger hauls, and their ability to consolidate packages is great, but for this specific 'speed run,' I shipped the bundle solo to get it moving as fast as possible.

Dealing with Belgian import tax and VAT

Shipping to Belgium means you have to be aware of the local customs regulations. I made sure to check the latest updates on import duties to ensure I had enough set aside for the VAT. In 2026, Belgian customs remain quite efficient, but they do require accurate declarations.

I always find it helpful to browse the FAQ section if I have questions about restricted items, though beauty products like the Peptide Treatment are generally easy to clear. My package arrived at my door in Brussels just eight days after it reached the US warehouse, which is a personal record for me.

My verdict on the Rhode delivery speed

I am beyond happy with how this worked out. The Rhode 'Summer Glaze' bundle looks even better in person, and the phone case is surprisingly durable. By using a freight forwarder with an assisted purchase feature, I avoided the stress of stock-outs and payment failures. If you are in Belgium and tired of missing out on US-exclusive drops, I highly recommend this route. It is the most direct path to getting what you want without the typical international shopping headaches.
