International Shipping

International customers are very welcome at MakingCosmetics. We ship to over 150 countries worldwide and have 10+ years of experience dealing with international shipping documentation.

Currently we offer 3 different shipping options for international packages including FedEx, USPS (US Postal Service) and DHL. There is a handling fee of $3.00 on all packages.

Please note that shipping charges may vary from the amount indicated by the automatic shipping calculator since the weight calculated in the website may differ from the actual package weight due to the packaging material.

Customs fees, VAT (value added tax) and sales tax are typically charged by the government of your country and must be paid by the customer once the package arrives. We cannot determine what these fees will be. We recommend that you check with your local customs office or post office for details on how these charges are assessed and applied. For customs clearance a customs broker is usually needed who may charge you a brokerage fee. Packages may be held up in customs for a few days and will delay delivery.
