MemeBox Special #34 Whole Grain 2- Review and Unboxing

MemeBox Special #34 Whole Grain 2- Review and Unboxing

Hey everyone,

Read about MeMeBox HERE and check out my previous boxes HERE and HERE.

This time they sent me this Whole Grain 2 Box, I had seen a few Whole Grain 1 Boxes and they looked quite interesting. So I immediately checked out what all products does it have, the inquisitive me :p And I loved all 6 and was eager to receive the box and try the stuff out.

Though my box was opened and  checked by customs this time around, saw the tapes used for repacking, but thankfully no customs charged! :phew:

About the box: Whole grains are gentle enough for even the most sensitive types of skin, yet powerful enough to buff away dead skin cells and encourage surface cell turnover! Whole grains will leave skin feeling silky soft, smooth and glowing. Rich in vitamins A and E, whole grains are full of antioxidants that promote cell respiration and also stimulate the production of anti-inflammatory compounds, slowing down the aging process.

MRP: $23 plus $6.99 Shipping

You can get it HERE.

What all does the box contain:

TOSOWOONG Time Shift Emulsion: $34.00 for 120ml

Product Description: Made from galactomyces extracts, black yeast extracts, and snail filtrate extracts, this emulsion works to replenish and tighten up the skin for a more elastic and lively complexion overall

Osho whitening Cream:$34.00 for 50ml

I am not really a fan of whitening and lightening creams and soaps, I don’t really believe in them. This one claims to even out skin tone, help fade scars and brighten skin. Maybe I would try, not sure, lets see.

Product Description: Makeup can only hide. Don’t just hide – when you can fix with Whitening Cream. Enriched with high concentrates of rice bran extracts, this cream works to even out skin tone and brighten up complexion so you appear more lively and awake. It’ll instantly brighten up the dark spots on your face for a healthier-looking complexion.

More Information:

As a mild cream, giving you a enriched yet smooth feeling, it is made with natural PC (Phosphatidinnyl Cholin) extracted from soybeans and squalene; thus it is very skin-friendly and forms thin PC film on the skin which is the Ideal Moisture System to minimize the loss of skin moisture. It is rich in more than 20 natural cosmetic ingredients and thus it provides plentiful nourishment for skin. It is not stick(y) at all, and has a good skin-friendliness. Thus it can be quickly absorbed deep in to the skin. (With the Nano Enrichment Technology, the active ingredients of cosmetic ingredients are quickly absorbed.) It has high and dual moisturizing capabilities which provide moisture and help prevent moisture loss. Thus it always helps to keep the skin moisturized. It steadily delivers whitening ingredients and anti-wrinkle ingredients to skin by using the patented biological process. Skin lotion, as an emulsion type, is excellent in moisturizing skin and supplying moisture to skin.

Key ingredients: Macadamia oil, jojoba oil, portulaca oleracea extract, hyaluronic acid.

Young Face Natural Aroma Soap: $12.00 for 100g

Product Description: 100% naturally-derived and hand-made, Young Face’s Natural Soap’s formula is made from mung beans [which are ] highly effective for soothing irritated skin and treating excessive blemishes, freckles and sagging skin. Mung beans are known to be rich in saponine, vitamin, calcium and protein as well.

How To Use: It’s recommended to be use with a bubble net because handmade soaps tend to soften faster.

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

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.

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.

MeMeBox Review: ColourBox #1 Red

MeMeBox Review: ColourBox #1 Red

So, I too jumped into the MeMeBox bandwagon (if you don’t know what it is about, go HERE), though I have tons and tons of things to do away with right now. (New place,shifting, etc after marriage) I am not buying anything new these days. But I wanted to try the MeMeBox since I had been hearing a lot about it.

About MeMeBox: Memebox is the #1 Korean beauty online retailer in the world.

Many of our products are sourced, packaged, and shipped, directly from Korea straight to your doorstep.

We also have a range of USA Exclusives, which include products most-loved by our USA customers – these ship directly from our USA warehouse.

We ship to 51 countries internationally: see if yours is on the list.

At Memebox, we’re committed to bringing you only the best – we’ll make sure it’s worth the wait.

They have 2-3 different kind of boxes, Original and Superbox.

The original Memebox comes packed with 4 – 8 full-sized products and deluxe samples.

SUPERBOX

Each Superbox comes with its own theme, and contains only full-sized items. Each month, we team up with style icons to curate special Superboxes featuring each collaborator’s favorite items – keep an eye on these, they sell out fast!

Also there are different boxes for different themes, and you have one for everything from scrubs to skin type to favourite color to hair care,etc.

Its been a long long time I ordered this, sorry for the delay in reviewing. I am running behind schedule on everything coz I am caught up with shopping and other stuff too. I got the ColourBox, they had three colours: red, orange and pink options if I am not wrong. (They have added a new Blue too) I went for the Red one.

About the Red Colour Box: Hey foxy ladies! Dare to step out of your comfort zone with our Memebox Red and vamp up your style with a dramatic, rosy red look? Add vibrance and vividness to your eyes and lips with a bold red hue, slip on those stiletto heels, and be that femme fatale that we all know you are.

MRP: $15.00

Shipping method: Standard Shipping
Shipping cost: $6.99
Estimated shipping time: 15~25 business days

It comes in a nice red colored packaging and 5 full sized products with details of each.

What I got in my box:

  • Dearberry Flirt Lipstick in 08 Red Parade ($12)
  • L’Ocean Eyeshadow L-35 Red 4g ($10)
  • The Cheek Room Two Color Lip Gloss 8ml ($12) (Super cute)
  • Tosowoong Gel Pencil Liner 1.2g in Burgundy ($10)
  • Dearberry Today Nail Lacquer #21 Pink Sprinkling 10 ml ($3)

The Dearberry red lipstick is an absolutely amazing and flattering red. The Cheek Room lipgloss is the cutest I have seen, did not own a two colour lipgloss ever. I love the nail paint shade too. I wont be using the red eyeshadow as an eyeshadow, I think it will make a pretty blush.

The best thing in the box is the Tosowong Makeon Burgundy gel eyeliner pencil. Always wanted to try a gel eye pencil which is quite famous in Korean makeup. Its a nice reddish brown burgundy color.

Having paid $15+ $7 = $22, I get $47 worth of products which is an amazing deal! And all MeMeBoxes are so worth it, coz you get much more value of products than what you pay. One actual beauty box where you end up getting something unlike small 5ml samples.

Since it was only one box, I was not charged with customs. But I have heard about few others having to pay huge customs, so that is one deterrent. If you do not stay in Mumbai and there are’nt much customs issues, you should definitely try this. Or I did suggest order one at a time, and not 2-3 together coz that definitely attracts customs.

You can buy it HERE (Its currently sold out, but they may stock soon). Also check out other boxes which are equally amazing.
