Getting the Merit Great Skin Summer Glow Set to the Netherlands is actually pretty simple

The details behind the Merit Beauty 2026 hype

The Merit Beauty 'The Great Skin' Summer Glow Set (2026 Edition) has become the most talked-about beauty release on Dutch social media this season. While the 'clean girl' aesthetic has been around for a while, the 2026 iteration focuses on a specific high-shine, sun-kissed look that relies heavily on the new Bronze Balm shades. These specific shades are currently exclusive to the US market, leaving many in the Netherlands looking for a way to bridge the gap.

Just a moment, securing your connection...

This limited edition bundle includes the signature Great Skin Instant Glow Serum and the new bronzers, designed to work together for that effortless summer finish. Since Merit doesn't offer direct international shipping to every corner of Europe for these limited drops, using a freight forwarder has become the standard workaround for local enthusiasts.

Shipping estimates and box details

Before you place your order, it helps to know what you are looking at in terms of logistics. Beauty products are generally light, but they require secure packaging to ensure they don't leak or break during international shipping.

While the weight is low, always be aware of the Volumetric Warning. Most carriers like DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping calculate costs based on either actual weight or the space the box takes up. For a small beauty set like this, you will likely be charged based on the actual weight. You can use a shipping calculator to get a more precise number before you commit to the purchase.

Understanding Dutch import tax and customs

When you bring goods into the Netherlands from outside the EU, you have to account for the Belastingdienst. For most beauty products, you will be looking at a 21% VAT (BTW) on the total value of the items and the shipping costs. If your total order exceeds €150, you might also be subject to additional import tax.

It is a good idea to check the FAQ at your shipping provider to see how they handle customs documentation. Some providers allow you to prepay these fees to avoid delays at the border, which is often the smoothest way to get your package delivered to your door in Amsterdam or Rotterdam.

How to buy from US stores using a freight forwarder

The easiest way to shop like a US local is to get a tax-free US address. This allows you to checkout on the Merit Beauty website just as if you lived in Oregon or Delaware. Once your 'Great Skin' set arrives at the warehouse, it is processed for package forwarding to your home address in the Netherlands.

If you find that the US store does not accept your Dutch credit card, you can use a proxy shopping service. This is where the provider buys the item on your behalf, effectively removing any regional payment barriers. You can follow this step-by-step guide to see exactly how the process flow works from checkout to delivery.

Checking for prohibited items and shipping rules

While most makeup is perfectly fine to ship, there are certain prohibited items to keep in mind. High-alcohol content perfumes or pressurized aerosol cans are often restricted in air freight. Fortunately, the Merit 'Great Skin' serum and Bronze Balms are liquid and cream-based, which typically do not fall under these shipping rules.

The 2026 Summer Glow Set is a high-demand item, so once you have your US address ready, it's best to move quickly when the stock refreshes. Using comGateway ensures you have a reliable hub to consolidate your US purchases before they make the trip across the Atlantic.
