Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[Saffyra]

Whaaa?? Was she young?? Why would she do that? I certainly hope Memebox would change the code for her.

At least the $3 was the same code for everyone.

Oh, I can't even think about it! That poor thing.

I think I'm good with the Thumbs Up. Miguhara makes the whole thing worth it for me, and I want to start more DIY face masks so the bran will be great. I like the nail masks, and I can always use random blush and powder compacts. Only thing I'm maybe so so on is the serum, which I don't know ingredients to.

I grabbed that box, too! I've been dying to try the Miguhara bp cream and I love that serum--it basically turns my face into a bouncy castle of moisture. The rice bran pack is really good--I use it for exfoliation. This was a good decision, I think! 

 

[Alidolly]

Well, got Very Berry just to use that code. That's me finished with memebox. Won't be buying any more for a long while (if ever) as fed up with the whole shebang. I've loads of boxes coming and don't need any more boxes.

Really hope they cancel ANY boxes that have been purchased using the golden ticket.

I feel so sorry for her as well, I saw her picture on a facebook page yesterday and thought there will be people who will use the code.  I hope memebox does cancel orders of anyone who has used the code, but I do feel like they will say she was the one who gave the code out.

Do you know if the serum has any alcohol? The Miguhara is fabulous. Basically melts into a powder on the skin. Provides a bit of coverage too. I wouldn't recommend it for dry skin though (it accentuates flakes -- it's not too bad if you pat it on with a makeup sponge though). I've got an entire full sized tube unopened already... I may or may not be hoarding it.

Wondering if part of my problem with logging on was using my iPad and phone, as soon as turned on the old rickety laptop I got right on. In the mean time I missed (once again!) my much sought after Cafe Box but I'm finally coming to terms with the fact we're just not meant to be. LOL

On the bright side, I picked up Memebox Empties and Very Berry....I think that one will make a nice holiday gift. Hope you girls did well! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Looked a nice mixture of things that I didn't already have so thought, why not as missed out on the box I really wanted - step by step.

What box had those sugar cube things in it? Can anyone remember as that's the only other thing I'd like to try..

 

[starry101]

I don't understand why first place was even a code. I would think that it would make more sense for the winner to contact Memebox and have the promotion applied directly to their account. 

 

[Saffyra]

I know the cubes were in the Birthday box but I can't remember the other one they were in. One I didn't get...

Thanks - oh well, doesn't matter I suppose, can live without it.

Luckybox #9 had a product by the same brand but I believe it was the consistency of a bath salt as opposed to the cubes. Personally I thought it was better because you could get more use out of it.

@athy 

Spoiler

i swatched the purple eyeliner and it doesn't really look purple at all...it's more of a purple-grey with a little glitter...but that's probably the only product i'll use out of the entire box!

@@Liv Thank you so much! I had canceled the Choco Mania and nearly died when I saw that Neogen cacao cream. With a great sale price and shipping, that covers the cost of the entire box for me. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> ...and I love getting everything else as an extra, haha. I've been eyeing that Missha cacao and cream pack for so long. Glad you got a restock of it last time around. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

@@Bunbunny Yeah, a lot of people have mentioned trying to cancel restocks, but because of their whole 5 day minimum for cancellations, they always say no. But at least you got some nice boxes, and I'm sure someone would happily buy whatever you really don't want off of you. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

@@Saffyra She actually put her finger over the code on the part where it shows it, but there's another section on top that she didn't notice was also the code. So I don't think she even noticed it was on another section until someone pointed it out to her.

3 Memeboxes arrived today...

Apple Mojito - looks ok (though not really a Mojito as lemon rather than lime). Hand cream doesn't have a strong smell and daughter likes the little cupcake balm.

Dirty Gal - looks fun and a $3 voucher included so happy with that. Kirsty dying to try the "smurf face stuff!" She saw Fanserviced blog photo and said "Mummy, you need to look like THAT!!" And giggled...not sure if it was a fun giggle of "mwah ha ha" type giggle though lol!!

Petite treasures - OMG, its even worse in the flesh so to speak. The ice cream balm is cute (Kirsty got her eye on that) but the box just looks so sad. Its the smallest box they have and it STILL looks empty. How utterly depressing and wish I'd never bought that one.

Should get Hair Salon tomorrow hopefully and pumpkin / anniversary ship today. They better be good!!

Back to attempting to make a "fab fairy" rope doll thing by Galt. instructions are rubbish and it looks nothing like the image on the box!! Says from 5+ but no way in hell could a 5 yr old make this! I've 3 university degrees and I'm struggling!?

 

[LisaLeah]

I grabbed Thumbs Up primarily for the BP cream.

Yay!  That stuff is ridiculously great. The hype is real.

Also I'm a new fan of the Soapberry cleanser.

Just got one as my "free gift" w/ a value set and I'm impressed.

I have no idea of the PH or the ingredients in it, and kinda don't care. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It's the perfect creamy to frothy ratio.,,,and leaves my skin nice and smooth.

I slept through all the madness and site crashes when the restocks went live.

Glad to see so many of you got the boxes you wanted!

Ok must wake up now...it's time to caffeinate and exfoliate....

@@Alidolly I was excited about the ice cream lip balm. 

The problem with that is that...

1. I have no real interest in ice cream shaped cosmetics.

2. Not the sort of cutesy thing I actually do like.

3. I hate key chain lip balms.

4. I would never want to keep that in/on my purse, and I tend to buy lip balms because of that factor.

What I'm trying to express is that...The fact I was excited about that, really just puts emphasis on what a disaster that box was.

I'm only keeping it/using it so that there is SOMETHING in that box that will go to good use (and it does smell nice!)

I just noticed that someone that used my affiliate link purchased a Tinkerbell box, and the commission is for 30 cents. Which, since points are factored in as money, makes me think that someone had to have used that golden ticket code. And since I don't think it was the grand prize winner.

I think this means that someone has used the coupon. Which must mean that others have as well.

This really upsets me. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 

[Solstice]

I tried to place an order last night. I got the boxes to check out and placed the order. The orders are still processing hours later. I have send a "request" to memebox asking to fulfill the order. The boxes are now sold out. Anything else all of you think I should do?

 

[Alidolly]

That really is poor using the golden ticket code. I'm not on Facebook so never saw it anyway but I feel so sorry for the winner and hope memebox cancels every box purchased using the code (except the winner). She can take loads of different photos of the ticket with something that shows her name and address (which those using the code can't) so it wouldn't be too difficult to find out the morons who did use the code and ban them from the site completely.

However, memebox being as they are probably wont do anything or react quickly enough to stop people getting boxes using the code. ******, crappy thing to happen tho and hope those that do use it get a severe reaction to something in the box they ordered!! Or their next crap is a hedgehog as they say I'm Scotland!
