Why customers in Argentina use Selectido for Sephora
Sephora US stocks brands and exclusives that simply do not exist outside the United States — Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez, Drunk Elephant's full lineup, Glow Recipe's newest drops, Patrick Ta, OUAI, and Charlotte Tilbury's US-exclusive sets among them.
Even when local Sephora stores exist, they carry maybe 40% of the US assortment, often six months behind, and at 40-80% markup. International shipping from sephora.com is blocked outright for most countries. For Argentina customers specifically, AFIP customs requires accurate value declaration on courier shipments — guesswork ends in seizures or paid-twice scenarios. Selectido marks customs accurately, includes the original receipt, and confirms exact landed cost before charging your card.
A Selectido shopper opens a video call from inside a US Sephora, walks the aisles you point to, swatches shades on their hand for you, and ships your final basket via DHL Express.
