Why I think the Rhode Skin hype is still going strong in 2026

I have been scrolling through TikTok lately and it seems like Hailey Bieber’s brand is still the only thing anyone is talking about. Even though we are well into 2026, the obsession with the Rhode Skin Peptide Lip Tint hasn't faded. I personally keep seeing shades like 'Salty Tan' and 'Guava Layer' go viral, but they are almost impossible to find locally in New Zealand. Every time I check a local reseller, they are either sold out or the prices are marked up to a point that makes me wince. I wanted to see if I could just get them myself from the source.

My experience trying to buy from the US store

When I decided to take the plunge, I realized that the US Rhode store is the only place that consistently has stock. To get my hands on them, I needed a freight forwarder because they don't ship directly to my house in Auckland. I set up a tax-free us address through comGateway, which gave me a way to shop us store sites just like a local would. It felt great to finally see 'In Stock' next to the shades I wanted.

Why I started using BuyForMe for my beauty hauls

I have to mention a major hurdle I hit. Some US-based beauty sites and big retailers like Sephora or Nike often block international credit cards. Even when I had my US address ready, my order was cancelled because I was using my New Zealand-issued card. It was incredibly frustrating. I found that the safest way to guarantee my order didn't get cancelled was to use a proxy service.

We now use the "BuyForMe" service offered by comGateway. Basically, they buy the item on my behalf using a US domestic card. This completely bypasses the checkout blocks that many of us face when trying to shop from New Zealand. If you are worried about your order being flagged or declined, I highly recommend this as it is the most reliable way to secure those limited-edition restocks before they vanish.

Breaking down the shipping estimates for Kiwi shoppers

I know many of you are worried about the international shipping rates. To help you plan your budget, I put together some estimates based on a typical Rhode order. You can always use a shipping calculator to get a more precise figure for your specific cart.

Before you ship, make sure to check the prohibited items list to ensure your specific cosmetic choices aren't under any temporary restrictions. While lip tints are usually fine, it is always better to be safe when looking at shipping rules.

What I learned about shipping to New Zealand

Getting my New Zealand delivery sorted was easier than I expected once the package reached the warehouse. I used a package forwarding service to consolidate my items. If you are buying more than just a lip tint—maybe some clothes or other beauty brands—you can save a lot by putting them all in one box before sending them home. I've found that the international shipping service is quite fast, usually taking about 5 to 8 business days to reach me once it leaves the US.

Is it actually worth it?

In my opinion, if you are a fan of the formula, it is worth it. By the time you find a local reseller that actually has 'Guava Layer' in stock, you are likely paying a massive premium anyway. By using a parcel forwarding service and the BuyForMe option, I managed to get exactly what I wanted without the stress of constantly checking local shelves. My advice is to bundle your order with a friend to split the shipping fees and make the most of your international shipping experience. If you want to buy from US ship to New Zealand, this is definitely the path of least resistance in 2026.
