The steps I took to ship the US Glossier Jet Set collection to the Netherlands

Why the Jet Set collection is trending right now

I have been watching the Japanese social media feeds lately, and the buzz around the May 2026 Glossier G Suit 'Jet Set' expansion is impossible to ignore. We are seeing a massive shift toward the 'Mediterranean glow' aesthetic, which relies heavily on the new electric coral and deep berry shades. These high-pigment formulas were designed specifically for the US market, leaving those of us in the Netherlands and parts of Asia without direct retail access.

Because these shades are currently exclusive to US storefronts, I had to find a way to bridge the gap. The formula is richer than the original G Suit line, making it a must-have for my summer kit. I decided to document the exact process I used to get these items delivered to my door in Amsterdam.

My process for buying from the US Glossier store

When I first tried to checkout on the US site, I realized they don't offer direct delivery for this specific collection to the Netherlands. To solve this, I used a freight forwarder. By using a tax-free US address, I managed to avoid US sales tax at the point of purchase, which already saved me a few Euros before the package even moved.

If you find that your credit card is being declined because it's not a US-issued card, I recommend using a proxy shopping service. This is where the provider buys the item on your behalf. I found that Glossier usually accepts international cards if the billing address matches, but having a 'Buy For Me' option is a great backup plan for US-exclusive drops.

Shipping estimates for the Jet Set collection

I know that calculating costs is the most stressful part of international shopping. To help you plan your budget, I have put together these estimates based on my recent shipment of three G Suit lip crèmes.

I suggest you use a shipping calculator to get a precise quote based on your specific location in the Netherlands. You can also check the latest international shipping rates to compare different courier speeds like DHL or FedEx.

Managing Dutch import tax and customs

Shipping to the Netherlands means we have to deal with the Belastingdienst. Since 2021, the VAT-free limit for low-value goods entering the EU has been removed. This means you will owe 21% BTW (VAT) on your Glossier order regardless of the price. If your total order value exceeds €150, you might also face additional customs duties.

I always make sure to set aside a bit extra for the import tax and the handling fee charged by the local carrier. If you want to understand the specifics of how these fees are calculated for different product categories, check our guide on import duties.

Checking shipping rules for cosmetics

Before I placed my order, I did a quick check on the shipping rules for liquids and creams. Most lip products are perfectly fine for international shipping, but some high-alcohol content perfumes or aerosol sprays can be flagged as prohibited items.

The G Suit 'Jet Set' collection is a cream-to-matte formula, which is generally safe for air travel. However, always verify that your selected package forwarding service allows for cosmetics. I have never had an issue with Glossier products, but it is better to be safe than to have your package returned. My shipment arrived in about six days using DHL international shipping, and the 'Mediterranean glow' was definitely worth the extra logistical steps.
