MEMEBOX SPECIAL #76 THE EMPRESS'S SECRETS UNBOXING

This is the second box that I got with the bundle...

Memebox Special #76 The Empress's Secrests

I think I was expecting a more oriental type of box, which would probably have products containing ginger, ginseng, gold, pearl, honey, or bee venom. I actually liked the box more after I had the unboxing video of it, but the only thing is about the wet tissues - imagine an Empress using a wet tissue wipe - that would be outrageous? Did they even exist then?

Update: I started using the Lime Nature Double Very Moisturising Cream yesterday and my skin likes it! I've been having quite a few spots on my face lately due to the change in weather and change in skincare products, but this cream felt very hydrating and didn't irritate my face at all!!

MEMEBOX SPECIAL #74 CLEOPATRA UNBOXING

Memebox has been quite slow in launching new boxes lately, but this was one of the new ones, so I got them as a bundle to save on shipping! I didn't really know what I was expecting from a Cleopatra's Box, but I definitely had higher expectations! Nonetheless, here's what I got...

MEMEBOX CHRISTMAS COLLECTION #2 MY HOLIDAY GLAM UNBOXING

I  have never purchased any makeup boxes from Memebox before, and this is the first one! I actually don't even know why I got it, but I guess the "free upgrade to express shipping" when getting the bundle was the main reason!

I think my picture for the video is 200% better than the box itself, but on the bright side, I'll have a lot of things to give away as presents for Christmas!

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

And a Happy New Year!

Memebox FINALLY came out with TWO NEW BOXES for Christmas, and I know quite a lot of people who also got the Christmas Bundle just because there hadn't been any new boxes in quite a long time! Here is the first box...

MEMEBOX AWESOME VALUE SET + HOPE GIRL BOX UNBOXING

I think my blog contains too many posts of Memebox unboxings, but Memebox posts do seem to be the ones getting most views, so here goes again...

Memebox AWESOME Value Set + Hope Girl Box

There was a mess up at Memebox, and they sent me the Hope Girl Box instead of the Memeshop haul that I ordered. I am still waiting for the reply to my message, and it's not surprising at all that I still haven't heard back from them! I will probably send them another message later tonight because I really want my masks!!!

MEMEBOX SPECIAL #65 APPLE MOJITO UNBOXING

Seems like I've been quite slow updating my blog recently - I did so many YouTube unboxing videos, but I completely forgot to upload them here too! So here goes, here's the video of...

Memebox Special #65 Apple Mojito

I wasn't intending to order this box at first, but having a few points in my pocket made me want to spend on a box, and this seemed to be the most eye catching one at that time...sadly enough there wasn't anything really "apple mojito" related.

MEMEBOX SPECIAL #70 CLEANSE & TONE UNBOXING

This is by far one of the better boxes I've received recently - at least there were no CPM items inside, but then again, the quality of the boxes is definitely not as high as they used to be!

MEMEBOX SUPERBOX #79 OH! MY LIPS UNBOXING

I bought these as a bundle, so they were shipped by DHL, hence getting them so quickly - just one day for them to be delivered to me!

Memebox Superbox #79 Oh! My Lips

Despite what other people may say about this box, I was actually pretty impressed with this box, and all of the products will definitely go into good use! In particular, I really like the lip jelly - it's really moisturising and it smells sooooo good, but the only thing is that it does get surprisingly red after applying just 2 layers onto my lips!! I now take a very small amount with my ring finger, then dab it gently onto my lips - this way, the colour is just right!

I think my picture for the video is 100% better than the box itself, but on the bright side, I'll have a lot of things to give away as presents for Christmas!

MEMEBOX GLOBAL #17 UNBOXING

I've been ordering way fewer boxes than I used to, because I didn't see anything that caught my eye, and I realised that Memebox doesn't stick to their themes sometimes. I realised that the Global Editions were the better pick, so here's another unboxing of another Global Box...

Memebox Global #17

Another shocking news that I read today...

Memebox is an online retailer for Korean Beauty products. With $1.5 million in seed funding, and the prestigious accolade of being one of Y Combinator's top 3 startups for Winter 2014, Memebox is poised to make a big play in the online consumer goods sector. This year, Memebox will transition away from being a reseller of cosmetic products to an online-only cosmetic manufacturer.

The paragraph in italics is copied from this website:

I don't know if it's true, but hopefully they'll still be keeping their boxes!

REVIEW: TO BE NANG GOLD 24K SNAIL NUTRITION HYDRO GEL MASK

This was featured in the Memebox Special #54 Miracle Masks. There were three "flavours" of masks from the To Be Nang brand inside the Miracle Masks Box, and since this one says it's a 24K gold mask, it seemed like a very classy mask to use.

It comes in a gold packaging - looks like an expensive kind of mask!

When I opened up the package, I could see that there was a lot of essence inside. When I took the mask out from the packaging, it felt super slippery on my hands, and it was slightly difficult putting it on my face properly, especially when I had put an eye mask on already. After adjusting it for a while, I was able to leave the mask on my face, but since it was a really slippery mask, the bottom half of the mask kept slipping down to cover my lips - this got a little annoying, because I always had to push the mask back up even though I tried to lie down as much as I could (I had just washed my hair and so lying down with wet hair wasn't good, and I was limited to watching TV episodes on my phone while lying down, because I wasn't allowed to walk around like I normally would with other sheet masks). Okay, so apart from that, I also experienced some irritations on my skin - I'm not sure whether it was because I kept pushing the mask back up or what, but I felt a slight itchy feeling above my lips. As I continued to leave the mask on, I started to get a slight itchy feeling over other parts of my face too, but it wasn't unbearable, so I just left it on my face for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes, I removed the mask from my face, and massaged the remaining essence onto my face. There was a lot of essence left on my face (so much that I was putting it on my arms etc), and it left my face feeling quite sticky (eww I hate that feeling!). It was still sticky 10 minutes after I removed the mask, and since the itchy feeling was still there, and it became quite unbearable, I had to wash my face with water, and while doing so, I felt that I was washing off a thick layer of essence on my face. My face was still slightly irritated afterwards, and what surprised me most, is that arm became red and itchy (because I had applied the essence onto my arms), but it did leave my face feeling quite soft.

Not really impressed with this mask - not sure what I'm sensitive to, but I'm usually not sensitive to any gold or snail products, so I really don't know about this one. I asked the others at MUT about this mask, but nobody seemed to have any reactions to it, just me.

Rating: 5/10

MEMEBOX SPECIAL #57 FOR DRY & SENSITIVE SKIN UNBOXING

I actually think the quality of Memeboxes is actually decreasing, and the products no longer seem WOW (is it because I've received so many products already, or is it that they're not putting as much effort into their boxes?) Anyhow, this is the box that I received a few days ago, but didn't get the video up until yesterday...

MEMEBOX SPECIAL #54 MIRACLE MASKS UNBOXING

Moving on from the huge debate we had with the Oh Sheet Masks Box, here's another unboxing of another Memebox (yes, it is an UNBOXING, so no detailed reviews here until I open up the products and use them)...

Memebox Special #54 Miracle Masks

I had to edit the video because I started coughing non-stop at some point during the video, and I also realised I forgot to say whether I liked the box or not. I thought the box was an okay box - not so pleased with the Purederm masks, and the fact that the sheet masks were labelled as three separate products although they're from the same brand and the same series, just different "flavours". This was definitely not the best masks box that I have received from Memebox.

REVIEW: INTERCOS SMOOTH SENSITIVE REMOVAL CREAM

The Intercos Smooth Sensitive Removal Cream was featured in Memebox Superbox #24 Waxing.

When summer comes around the corner, every girl needs a proper waxing for her under-arms, legs, arms, and bikini-lines. With Intercos' sensational hair removal cream, waxing can become so much quicker and easier. There's no need for a razor blade or a painful waxing procedure anymore. Simply apply the removal cream and after 5-10 minutes, rinse off in a shower.

How to use:

Apply the removal cream on areas you wish to wax, wait for 5-10 minutes, and then just jump into the shower and rinse off.

Personal View:

The Removal Cream smells like those of Veet, but it's even worse!

The Removal Cream comes in a container where you have to use a spatula to scoop out the cream. Memebox only gave us a wooden spatula (like those in ice-blocks but bigger), so I'm not sure how well you can clean it and reuse it for the next time.

I realised that I needed to use quite a lot in order to cover up all the areas I had hair on, so that's 1/3 of the container gone!

If I remember correctly, you only need to leave the Veet's foam on your body for 3-5 minutes before you can wash it off, but for the Intercos Removing Cream, you need to leave it on for 5-10 minutes before washing it off! Leaving it on for 10 minutes was really troublesome, because I didn't want my clothes to get dirty, so I ended up wearing a towel dress, and clipping up the bottom parts so that the towel wouldn't touch my legs (hubby laughed at me for doing this, because I was doing a hair treatment at the same time, and I looked super crazy with my hair up and dress up -.-). I was really happy to wash it off after 10 minutes, but I realised that it wasn't so easy to wash off with plain water - my legs still had that slippery unclean feeling after washing it with water, and that really bad smell was still there, so I was forced to take another shower with shower gel again! I also realised that the hair on my legs wouldn't wash off by itself, and actually required me to rub my legs with my hands (with some added pressure) to successfully get rid of the hair - super troublesome!

"With Intercos' sensational hair removal cream, waxing can become so much quicker and easier."

I think it's actually way more convenient if I just used a razor!!!

Final Verdict:

Too smelly

Too time consuming

Too troublesome

Not very effective

I would definitely not repurchase!!!

Thank you for reading, and have a nice day!

MEMEBOX GLOBAL #16 UNBOXING

I received another box from Memebox, and this time, it's one of the Global Editions! They really never disappoint!!!

Memebox Global #16

I love how the Global Editions include a variety of products, not just for the face! I've also purchased the #17-19 bundle, and I can't wait to receive them!!!

MEMEBOX SUPERBOX #63 BLACKHEADS NO MORE UNBOXING

This is another Pore Care Box that I ordered...

Memebox Superbox #63 Blackheads No More

I used the Dermahouse Deep Cleansing Cream just now, and it's pretty good! It has a faint scent, not too overwhelming, and it was able to wash the Holika Holika Berry Berry Lip Tint (I received it from the Memebox Superbox #62 Just Gellin' Box) off my lips. It's also not too drying on the face too!

MEMEBOX SUPERBOX #57 ALL ABOUT BROWS UNBOXING

I've always wanted to buy products to make my brows pretty, but I didn't really know what to buy, so when this box came out, I bought it instantly!!

Memebox Superbox #57 All About Brows

I was pretty content with the box actually. I'm okay with most shades from Memebox, I guess that's because Memebox is a Korean brand, and I'm Asian (and pretty fair), so their products work okay for me. The only thing I probably won't be using is the razor, as I've previously had bad experiences with it, but I'm surprised they didn't add any tweezers, which are like a necessity to me.

MEMEBOX SUPERBOX #53 MY HONEY BOX UNBOXING

Seeing how popular the first Honey Box from Memebox went, I instantly caved in when this box came out...

Memebox Superbox #53 My Honey Box

I was slightly disappointed with this box actually, because I already have a few too many hand creams and peeling gels at home, and another Pure Smile Lip Treatment that I have hardly used. I love honey scented products, but the items inside this box don't seem to have that kind of smell at all!!! This box is not exactly the best box I have received!!!

MEMEBOX SPECIAL #28 ALL ABOUT EYES UNBOXING

I received another box yesterday, and although the items inside the box do actually match its theme, it's not the best box for me yet...

Memebox Special #28 All About Eyes

Honestly, I was expecting a good eye cream as well as few more eye masks, but instead, I received many eye makeup products along with an eye serum and ONE eye mask! I wasn't too happy about receiving more Cheek Room products tbh, but the eye serum and eye concealer were my favourites!!

So, we've been told that there are no new promo codes for September yet, so all the August codes will continue until the 14th September!!! If you still haven't used my $5 off code, here it is: 3MZU
