Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

@@cfisher my feet can get really tough so it is a good thing and tbh it is due to the fruit acids

that is the apple tox by tony moly. We also got a hand cream that is separate. so the red apple is a face cream & sleep mask, but there is an apple and honey hand cream too in the box.

Thanks for the heads up @@biancardi

@@Jane George I have only used the appletox once so far and on my face, but when I used it I had peeling but I wasn't sure if it was my skin or too much product that was drying and balling up?

So excited to get my first pink box ever today. Turns out it was the Benton set that I ordered on Black Friday. I was disappointed to see that my free gift was a single bubble peeling pad. I'm sure I'll like trying it out but I am dying to try out some K-beauty and getting a single use free gift when all of the others sounded much better is a bit of a letdown. I guess I'll just twiddle my thumbs waiting for Dirty Gal and the restocks that I grabbed to arrive someday while I rub snail bee goodness on my face.

sorry I have the appletox didn't know they did a hand cream

Think I'll suggest the granny's use the appletox as a hand cream if it causes peeling?! I've used a little of it on my hands as think its too sticky for face use. Usually if I don't use something on my face, I slap it on my legs as they rarely see the light of day anyway lol!

It contains fruit acids so will peel for some people. I don't believe it has down any damage to my skin and instead seems to be smoothing the skin nicely on my feet.

Don't get me wrong, I love it when my feet peel.

But when it comes to my face...Unless it's a peeling gel/cream, it should not be peeling my face, in my opinion.

Have any of you ladies with dry skin used their Appletox yet? I thought a lot of people were raving about it, but sort of wondering if I misunderstood, or if they just loved the packaging. 

On the plus side...Thanks @@Jane George, at least now I know how to use up the Appletoxes I get stuck with. I'm sure we have more coming our way. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

@@cfisher and @@Jane George I don't mind if it's peeling on my face if I use it once or twice a month, I was planning on using it more but now I will use it less. When I used it I was please with the results so for me it's a rave but it's good to know that I shouldn't use it too often.

I have oily skin and the red appletox has never peeled my skin

the green apple is a peeling cream, but you only keep that on your face for a few minutes.

 

[Jane George]

@@Mahsa @@cfisher it isn't rich enough for my skin on my face tbh

I received the green apple from bnk yesterday

 

[cfisher]

@@biancardi Has the green appletox been in a Memebox before? 

@@Jane George We have similar skin types from what I've read. and honestly, it's not like I need more creams. If it had been like a $60 cream, I'd be forced to give it a proper chance. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

@@Jane George @@cfisher @@biancardi I have combination skin oily forehead and nose and dry around my mouth so I'm always looking for things to balance out my skin appletox was pretty good I'll let you know how it is next time I try it (I plan on using it as a sleeping mask once or twice a month)

tonymoly superbox....

 

[Fae]

I have combo-oily skin and my face never peeled! ^^

 

[Jane George]

@@cfisher atm I am a fan of dairy based creams or anything honey or snail mucus. All seem to enrich my skin nicely. My fave from memeboxes have been the donkey steam cream or the bounce cheese cream.

Also loving the mangchee lifting mask over a standard moisturiser for day atm.

 

[Jane George]

Might be a dry skin issue

 

[cfisher]

@@Jane George Yeah, I'm starting to think it may be a dry skin thing. Donkey Milk and anything with Mucin and honey are also way at the top of my list. I have 3 of the Bounce Cheese Creams now (1 is the Melted kind) so anxious to use up what I have to be able to justify opening one.

Glad you liked the Mangchee, I have 2 of those and bought 2 of the creams to complete my set. But I hadn't heard yet if anyone liked the lifting mask.I'm sure I can get some great use out of one of them this winter. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It didn't work for me whatsoever either. It left my face sticky for hours even tho I got dry skin, and it sort of peeled sometimes for me too. Thought it maybe was just me, and not something with the product, but now I know its normal. I stocked up to give away for gifts however. My bestfriend LOOOVES it., But it's not for me,sadly..

 

[cfisher]

@@Theblondeangel Welp, it's official. Definitely not for us dry skinned ladies, haha. I think I have as many foot creams as I do facial moisturizers at this point. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

@@Mahsa Be sure to let us know how it goes. I'm wondering if you'll notice a drastic difference with your dry skin areas vs your oily skin areas.
