Btw--I recently learned that in addition to boxes, Memebox staff buys products, too. And they read our reviews for shopping purposes (??!!!!). I'm guessing that they may have some of the same grumbles that we have, with the added awesomeness of getting to deal with angry messages about them.
yup they do!! I recall seeing some photos of the ladies and their memeboxes lol. I hope the memeangst is real and that they complain about it directly to HQ since we don't have that contact privilege. We need a number to call man...

Anyone know what time EST Memebox releases the 12 day's  of Christmas surprise?
Not sure about time zones, but its usually about 4 hours from now. It's 9pm eastern european time. :) /emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
yes, I emailed them this weekend. I also gave them my commentary about how memebox used to be ashamed of putting soon-to-be-expired products in their boxes and cited Fermented 2 and the email that was sent out with that box.

I will let you know what they said. If we don't complain, then they won't know how many people are upset over this. Sure, they may not do a darn thing about it and still continue to put these types of products in our boxes, but maybe if enough people complained about it, they might stop it.

It doesn't hurt to complain. What is the worst that they could do to us? I am a paying customer. I would return something like this to a store
yes I have, no reply yet, do memebox take ages to reply?
 
@@cfisher great minds lol
I can't stop laughing. I went and did a few things, came back and refreshed the page....And I was reading through...And I was like, Wait? I thought it worded it differently?

It took me like 2 minutes to realize it was you. (Not until I realized there was a second line, and then checked your screenname).   :lol:   :lol:   :lol:

If anyone bought the k pop beauty box, I posted a spoiler in the korean skincare thread.

Can't link to it now since I'm on my phone and about to leave for work but...yeah.

On another quick note I've been using the She's Uris Rice Water Double Action Wrinkle and Whitening cream as my day moisturizer and it's LOVELY. I think it was from the step by step skincare box? I can't keep up with the boxes lately lol. It's feels a bit sticky after it's first applied, but I wait a minute or two and it absorbs beautifully. Gives me just the right amount of moisture for daytime so I can apply my makeup easier and faster. Plus no breakouts or irritation. Woohoo!

 
So, received Christmas boxes and pumpkin / anniversary (as well as hair salon and Milkydress bundle) and realised I'm now at saturation point lol!

I also had a closer look at the shara shara cream and while its not got a nice smell, I don't think its turned just yet as its still creamy rather than separated or anything so will use it on my feet or something....not my face that's for sure (or even my hands!). I'm still not happy about the use by date and if they continue that trend, I'll be buying elsewhere (when I eventually need anything lol!).

Does anyone have the link for the Milkydress value bundle as there's no card so want to make sure I'm using the products correctly as its now sold out? Thanks in advance...

Regarding fermented 2, ven at the time, I remember thinking that it was probably just a bid for more time. Like, a couple of the products hadn't come in by the intended ship date, and they wanted to stretch the release.

 
Oh another product recommendation!

I forget which box it came in, but the Hanhui CC Cream. I cannot believe I waited so long to put this stuff on my face.

It's like I'm applying a second skin. Perfect color match, perfect amount of coverage, and when it's on it doesn't look like I'm wearing anything on my face at all.

LOVE

that came in Oriental Medicines and I LOVE that CC cream.    Totally a wonderful CC cream and no breakouts.

I LOVE the Hanhui CC cream.  Can't remember which box, either, but I want to say it was a Global. 

If I use that with the Lailly makeup booster and the Miguhara primer, my face looks amazing, haha!

Oriental, thank you!

That turned out to be a good box for me. 

ETA yep yep, that box also had the D’RAN Wonder Serum, which I like quite a bit as well.

@ now I'm all worried that Korea is doing globals 18 and 19 (which I have coming - bought in a bundle).  Which is probably the case.  Which means... pfft.

Got Petit Treasures this weekend.  Ooof.  As for the Shara Shara balm, mine doesn't smell off, just very not good.

 
And in other news, Step by Step will be arriving shortly I hope -- it's hit NJ last I checked and they usually go pretty fast after that.

Oh yeah and Cleo/Empress/Wonder Woman tomorrow!  I'm super nervy about those boxes.  My hopes aren't high for Wonder Woman, I just wanted it lol

yaaass! I've been using random ones here and there, as well as my old favorite BB (Skin79 Absolute Total Diamond BB Cream) but this hanhui makes my skin look SO. AMAZING. 

Ugh I need a lifetime supply and I want to throw away all my other BBs CCs and foundations immediately lol

There is another shara shara balm that is in the Next Best thing in skincare - that is the one I am referring to - the green seed oil.  The one in petit treasures smells like eucalyptus to me.

 
@@biancardi Oh, I see my bad! 

Hmmm I didn't think mine really smelled like anything at all!  I would've liked eucalyptus.  Maybe it smells differently once it's out of the tin?
