MeMebox Special #31 Earth & Sea Cosmetics- Unboxing & Review

If you don’t know what a MeMebox is,read HERE. I got my first  Colour Box #1 in Red at first (reviewed HERE). This time they offered me to try a box which would be a surprise. I love surprises! So I was IN for it.

MeMeBox Review: ColourBox #1 Red, Unboxing MeMeBox, Indian makeup and beauty blog

When I received the box,it was super heavy. (My previous box was makeup, so was quite light. This time it was skincare) It was this #31 Special Earth & Sea Cosmetics Box. It has 6 full sized skincare products!! Its bound to be heavy.

#31 Earth & Sea Cosmetics: When toxins, dirt and oil build up get under the skin, its waste-filtering system gets jammed, ultimately clogging up pores and making skin look dull. So, we’re bringing you nature’s clean up crew to clear the way for cleaner and brighter skin.

Charcoal, volcanic ash and mud all work together to draw out dirt and excess oil to extract stubborn impurities from deep within pores! Mineral rich marine energy works as the step 2 treatment for refining pores and replenishing moisture to the skin.

Our Earth & Sea Cosmetics Box offers the best natural ingredients to give you your best looking skin yet.

MRP: $29.00

Shipping cost: $6.99

Products in the box:

SECRET NATURE Volcanic Ash Pore Pack 100g- retails at $36
Enriched with organic Jeju complex and mineral rich volcanic ash, charcoal, green tea, and pine needle extracts, this Volcanic Ash Pore Pack works wonders for the skin by controlling excess sebum and tightening enlarged pores. Plus, it’s free of parabens, artificial fragrances, and artificial coloring, and is suitable for all skin types!

It looks very similar to the Innisfree Volcanic Clay Pore Mask!

ARIUL Spa Water 24 Hours Moisturizing Refreshing Mist 100ml -retails at $18
Ariul’s Refreshing Mist is made from pure spa water extracted straight from Beligium and extremely rich in minerals, various amino acids, and moisture. It works to deliver an instant replenishment into your skin, creating a moisture barrier for preventing any dehydration for the next 24 hours at the least. It also be used as a boosting serum for enhancing absorbance of other skincare products.

I love thermal water, spring water, spa water mists. Avene Thermal Spring Water is my all time favourite. Looking forward to trying this out.

ELIZAVECCA Elastic Pore Mask Cleansing foam 120ml- retails at $29

Suck out dirt out of your pores with charcoal while collagen extract from pig skin firms and hydrates skin. Spider extract makes this cleansing foam extra refreshing and suitable for sensitive skin.

WHAT IT DOES: Keeps skin feeling moisturized while removing excess oil and dirt from pores.

HOW TO USE
1) Apply appropriate amount on dry face. If too dry, use a tiny bit of water to spread cleanser evenly on entire face. Wash off with lukewarm water after 3~5 minutes.
2) After removing makeup, wet face. Massage a small amount of cleansing foam into creamy foam to remove excess makeup. Wash off with lukewarm water.

I like the fact that it acts both as a cleanser and mask. I know the spider and pig collagen extract does not sound good :/ But the Koreans and Chinese have the best skin in the world, all these weird things should be the secret. Definitely want to try this first :p

TOSOWOONG Super Aqua Cooling Gel 80g- retails at $34

The Super Aqua Cooling Gel is an ultra-cooling cream gel that provides long-lasting freshness and comfort to the face and body. Full of minerals and nutrients from glacier waters, this gel is ideal for cooling overheated skin and relieving irritated skin. Deep sea minerals also strengthen and moisturize skin so that you can have firm and supple skin all day long.

HOW TO USE: Evenly distribute a penny sized amount onto skin and massage until fully absorbed. Use daily morning and night after toning the skin.

It is supposed to be a moisture bomb and suitable for all skin types from oily to super dry. Its moisturizing and creates a moisture film on the skin and there is no oiliness or greasiness. If it delivers what it claims, this will be my go-to product for this winters.

DEWYTREE Mineral Healthy Sun Cut Loose Powder SPF36 PA++ 10g- retails at $34

Dewytree’s loose powder is enriched with natural minerals and essential oil for maintaining your skin’s moisture level and leaving a long-lasting silky finish to your makeup. Plus, it has a UV protection level of SPF 36 PA++ and uses an air pocket puff that does not clog pores with powder application.

Loose powder with minerals and essential oils plus sunscreen protection. Bring it on. I am yet to try on the shade, I hope it matches :/

SHARA SHARA Black Charcoal Mask Purifying 23g- retails at $2

Shara Shara’s Black Charcoal Mask contains high concentrates of charcoal powder and volcanic ash complex for clearing your skin of dirt, impurities and sebum clogging up your pores. It also works to soothe and protect sensitive skin with its wine and aloe vera leaf formula.

Again charcoal and volcanic ash. This time with wine and aloe vera. Sheet masks are easy to use, can be carried anywhere and I love how they are dipped in rich,moisturising serums and give an instant boost to the skin anywhere!

I think this box is perfect for people with oily skin or pore issues. So many products with volcanic ash, clay, charcoal and for deep cleansing. Its like a DIY clean up at home. Definitely recommend this box!

You can buy it HERE. By the way, the winners of the MeMebox giveaway are declared! Congrats guys, hope you get an amazing box of your choice. Do share the pics with me.

TonyMoly Aqua Aura Illuminating Base Review

TonyMoly Aqua Aura Illuminating Base Review

What the Company claims: This fine two-tone hologram pearl provides soft pearl touch to the entire face. It covers pores and fine wrinkles and provides a radiant, transparent vitality to skin tone. While moisturizing the skin for a long time, it does not leave any sticky residue on the skin.

Directions: Apply an appropriate amount evenly to the entire face. Reapply to the outer part of the cheekbone area. T-zone area, and below the jaw area to maximize radiance effects and define facial contours.

Ingredients:

MRP: $15.25 for 30ml

It comes in this blue and white packaging..with a sleek blue cap and a nozzle dispensor..you just need a little amount of it..

Its white in color and a little thick in consistency..it has that super pearly sheen..and reduces the appearance of pores..

Its non sticky as claimed and stays put well and holds makeup longer too..only issue is its way too pearly..and I personally do not like the shiny pearly look all over my face during daytime..

L- Unblended, R- Blended

It looks good for a party or some night event..

Pros:

1. Helps reduce the appearance of pores.

2. Gives a pearly sheen to the face.

3. Is non sticky and stays put well.

4. If you like the shiny look, you would definitely love this.

Cons:

1. Not available here.

2. Too shiny for daytime use.

Overall, I would say its a nice base for a night time event..or for someone who loves shimmery/pearly look.
