What I found out while trying to get the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Eye Mask to South Korea

Why this eye mask is all over my feed

I’ve been seeing the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Overnight Eye Mask everywhere lately. Since its 2026 launch, it has basically taken over TikTok. If you are like me and obsessed with that 'glass skin' look, this specific expansion of the Jet Lag line is supposed to be the holy grail for under-eyes. It’s thicker than the original mask but doesn't feel heavy, which is exactly what my skin needs during the dry season here in Korea.

I noticed that while we have some Summer Fridays products at Sephora SG or through local resellers, this specific 2026 eye mask is still a US-exclusive. It hasn't hit our local shelves yet, and I didn't want to wait months for a potential release. I’ve been keeping an eye on us trends to see when the best time to buy would be, and the reviews from US creators convinced me I needed it now.

Where to find the 2026 launch in the US

When I started my search, I went straight to the source. The Summer Fridays official website and Sephora US are the two primary places carrying the full 2026 collection. I found that shopping from US stores directly is often the only way to get these viral drops before they are marked up by third-party sellers in Asia. I usually prefer to shop us store sites because they offer the most reliable stock and often include free samples that we don't get elsewhere.

The problem with US checkouts for us in Korea

Here is where things got a bit tricky for me. I tried to use my Korean issued credit card on a few US sites, and my order was cancelled almost immediately. We've seen this happen a lot with big brands like Nike, Apple, and even Sephora US. These stores often block international credit cards or flag addresses that belong to a freight forwarder. It’s incredibly frustrating when you have the funds but the store simply won't let the transaction go through because you aren't physically in the US with a US bank account.

How I used BuyForMe to secure my order

Since I didn't want to risk another cancellation, I decided to use the comGateway "BuyForMe" service. This is basically an assisted purchase option where they do the hard work for us. I provided the link to the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Eye Mask, and their team bought it on my behalf using a US domestic credit card.

I found this to be the safest way to guarantee my order didn't get stuck in 'cancellation limbo.' If you've ever tried to buy limited edition drops from stores that are strict about international buyers, this is a lifesaver. They handle the payment, and the item gets delivered to my tax-free us address in Oregon, which also saves me a bit of money on US sales tax.

Shipping costs and logistics to Seoul

Once the eye mask arrived at the warehouse, I had to figure out the best way to get it to Korea. I used the shipping calculator to get an idea of what I’d be paying. Since an eye mask is quite light, I actually ended up buying a few other things from the 2026 collection to make the shipping cost more efficient. One of the perks of using comGateway is that I can consolidate multiple packages into one box.

If you are curious about the process, you can check out this how it works guide. It’s pretty straightforward: the store ships to Oregon, comGateway notifies me, and then I ship it to my house in South Korea. Their international shipping service usually gets my packages to Seoul in about 5 to 8 business days, which is faster than most other options I've tried.

What to know before shipping beauty products

Before I placed my order, I made sure to double-check the prohibited items list. While most skincare is perfectly fine to ship to South Korea, there are sometimes restrictions on certain chemicals or aerosol cans. Luckily, the Jet Lag Eye Mask is a standard cream-based product, so there were no issues there.

For my fellow shoppers in Korea, remember the de minimis value. As of 2026, we can generally import up to $200 worth of goods from the US (including the product price and domestic US shipping) without paying additional import duties and taxes. This makes buying high-end skincare from the US even more attractive compared to local luxury prices. My experience was seamless, and my skin is definitely thanking me for that extra hydration!
