Import of gunge from UK into the EU by mal

Hi everyone,
has anybody imported gunge from the UK into the EU since the Brexit has come into effect? As far as I understand I am responsible to pay customs, which may differ according to the amount (it wont be hundreds of KGs) and the declaration. AFAIK most of the time the ingredient is Hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC). Does this count as pre-cosmetic stuff? Ingredient to bind substances? I would not like to explain to custems what's in my parcel in too much detail...
Cheers, mal.

Try asking the supplier for guidance on descriptions, tariff codes, etc.

Normality is subjective.

The lack of decent gunge and pie material in the UK has COMPLETELY switched my position on Brexit, from whatever it was before (which I totally forgot what it was) to whatever it is now!

I can only really comment from shopping from messysupplies which includes everything pretty much but I was made aware that customs might check it out due to it coming from the UK but never really had an update on it so I would say that it can definitely be done but you need to find some loopholes to not make them suspicious

Thats why I buy in bulk. I get the 100L specials and a bunch of smaller ones to get quantity discount. The shipping doesn't increase by all that much as you continue adding more. it also helps if you have any friends you can share with. Larzstord and I share orders and when you can split the shipping even just 2 ways it helps a load
