hi, I've been a member of Bongo.com which is the same thing. Its only worth it if the thing you are ordering can NEVER be found in the UK. I have some tips and tricks too. My last order had VAT/customs charges worth more than the actual order! so I've learnt from the experience.
there's a shipping fee ready reckoner on the site which suggests that the minimum shipping fee to the UK is over $40. This seems steep but I suppose they have to make some money on it.
$41 for 1 lb weight is supposed to be a low shipping fee??? They must be joking. How could that be worth it? I can get things from eBay easily and only pay $5-6 for a package.
Hey if you ever want something desperately, let me know. I am sure I would be able to get it for you, and I'll charge exactly what shipping costs me :) Happy to help a fellow beauty junkie.
I am far-ish from Nordies and Sephora but Old Navy/Gap/VS are close by.

I think you can still be charged customs if border control fancy it!

Always compare shipping rates to your country before you register with them ;)
