FOODHAPPY PREMIERBOX 2 UNBOXING

If you ordered a certain box for last week, you will be getting the same type of box the following week, unless you change it before a certain day. I ordered a PremierBox the previous week, but I was in hospital during that time (and had too many things on my mind), so I was unable to change the type of box delivered for last week, so I received another PremierBox (but they deducted $40 off the box since I have a few coupons to use up).



The boxes I've tried so far:
(personal rating: 7/10)

(personal rating: 8/10)

(personal rating: 8/10)

ChocHappy Box
(personal rating: 8/10)

Premier Box
(personal rating: 8/10)

Every time I try a new item in the box, I am able to rate them, so it helps them decide what to send me next in my future boxes!!

These were the snacks I received (I switched five items in my box). On a side note, they have still not updated the list of the products that I have received, so I am still unable to rate some of the items that they replaced inside my previous boxes!

I have finished my subscription with FoodHappy, and I am just using up the "Free FoodHappy Box" coupons that I have earned.


Finally, it's time for revealing the discount coupon...

Use this coupon to get HK$10 off three FoodHappy Boxes ($30 off in total): MZ3QB

Thank you and have a nice day!!!

REVIEW: SKIN FACTORY 7 SECONDS MORNING SHEET 7in1

I received this product in my Memebox The Mask Edition #4, and I even tried it in my Unboxing Video (please start the video at 9:50). I instantly fell in love with this product because of how convenient it was!

Skin Factory 7 Seconds Morning Sheet (20 each/150g)


Ready your skin before makeup in the morning with this 7 Seconds Morning Sheet which works as a toner, a lotion, and an essence all in one! What's more, a quick 7 second wipe with this dual facial sheet will give you all the effects of a facial massage, an anti-wrinkle serum, and a dead skin cell remover.

Ingredients included:
Morinda Citrifolia Fruit Extract (Noni), Echinacea Extract, Nasturtium Officinale Extract, Galactomyces, Jasmine Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Nasturtium Officinale Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (Green Tea), Grape Extract, Orange Extract

How to use:
After washing your face, insert two fingers into the pad and rub your face with the dotted side of the pad for seven seconds. Then, with the other side of the pad, massage the essence into your face for another seven seconds.

Tip:
Use this before special occasions or any time when you have to look your best. Use the included tweezers to pick up the pads. If you don't have enough time to apply makeup, just use this sheet and apply BB cream to be ready for your day!

This product is free from:
Parabens, Ethanol, Silicon, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Phenoxy Ethanol, Mineral Oil, BHT, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Talc, Tri Ethanol Amine


I use this in the mornings in place of my usual toner and essence on days that I'm feeling lazy. The sheets come in a plastic tub with with a plastic cover. It comes with a tin cover that you need to take off before using (it reminds me of a food can!).


The pads are round in shape, and look like cotton pads, but are much thinner than cotton pads (like the material for face sheet masks). The pads have a pocket so that you can place your fingers inside when using. One side of the pad is dotted, and the other side is smooth. It comes with a pair of tweezers, so you can take the sheets out with ease.


 The pad is soaked completely in essence when I took it out of the tub (but not dripping wet), and the dotted side of the pad acts as a slight exfoliator when applied onto the face (but it's very mild, so you can use it everyday). After using the dotted side for 7 seconds, I saw that the pad was slightly yellow in colour. The other side just feels like a normal sheet mask, and I use it to pat my face so that the essence can absorb into my face! I like how it doesn't leave any sticky feeling on my face afterwards, and it keeps my face really hydrated. It does, however, leave quite a lot of essence on my face afterwards, so I usually pat my face with my hands afterwards or massage the essence into my face, and the essence absorbs really quickly, so there's no problem there.

It says on the tub that the product is used for whitening and anti-wrinkle, but like other Korean skincare products, the word "whitening" doesn't actually mean that it will whiten your skin, instead, they will usually brighten up your skin-tone. Having that said, I have realised that this product really helped to brighten up my skin; however, I didn't really notice much for the anti-wrinkle effect (but that's probably because I don't have wrinkles, only fine lines under my eyes, but I don't use this product on my eyes!).

It's also very convenient that it's an exfoliator, a toner, a lotion, and an essence all in one, perfect for days when I'm in a hurry or when I don't feel like putting layers of products onto my face! The only downside to this product is the expensive price tag to it - this retails for US$28.90 at WishTrend (it says US$39 on the Memebox description card), but there are only 20 pads inside!

Is it a bonus that it contains Platinum inside?

I forgot to mention that it comes with a small leaflet that tells you the circulation points on your face in which you can use the dotted side of the pad to massage with.


I liked the product so much that I went to purchase the other two tubs:
Platinum Rose Wine Ampoule Mask for Night Time
7 Seconds Homme Sheet


I tried using the 7 Seconds Homme Sheet on hubby's face last night, and he didn't break out, so it's definitely suitable for very sensitive skin!

It does say the word "refrigerator" on the tub, so perhaps you're supposed to put it into the fridge for a more refreshing feel? I'm too lazy to put it into the fridge, but I think it's still a great product to use without the cooling effect!!!

I haven't opened the Platinum Rose Wine Ampoule Mask yet, but I saw that it's a face sheet mask - my favourite! I can't wait to try that out and review it later!!!

Overall Rating: 9/10
