Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[Mahsa]

It was still unnecessary and kinda hurtful, either way. I know memebox's efforts to push out their own brand gets annoying, but there's no need to take it out on someone like that.

The makeup is a little too "perfect" looking, like a doll. It's not her best picture, and it doesn't really showcase the makeup well.

I find her expressions and thumbnails scary and it's nothing to do with memebox promoting her, I've always thought so as YouTube generally insists on promoting her channel to me. She is quite a big youtuber so memebox must be happy to have her on board.

I don't think it's hurtful to say that as she obviously purposely does the expressions.

I didn't mean to take it out on her or anything. And I do agree, my words were a little too mean. You can call me an as***** for what I said.

I don't think you are, I know I've said things that weren't right out of annoyance or just carelessness. I do hope she'll put out a video that's better at showing the makeup realistically.

I am so baffled.

She doesn't seem like a beauty blogger at all?

Ladies, what am I missing here?

....Or is Memebox just trying to collab with whoever has the most views on Youtube?

@@cfisher she is big and she is has collabed with other you tubers like mirandasings I think. I don't watch much YouTube anymore so I might be wrong.

I poked around a bit, and I'm just not seeing any beauty type things. Except like some freakish experience with crayon lipstick, which did not work. But her views (the amount of video views) are obscene.

I really thought she might have another channel for beauty reviews or some sort of separate site.

@@cfisher She does actually do a lot of beauty videos. She's also done at least one Memebox opening/review. Tutorials for different looks, makeup reviews, etc. She can definitely be over the top, but I have a lot of fun watching her videos. She seems like a ton of fun to hang out with lol!

I have 30 memepoints sitting in my account, and nothing to buy... anyone have any suggestions? I was kind of leaning towards Luckybox #12...

After clicking on like 10 different videos....I found a review of one of the OCC lip tars.

I guess it's just weird to me, because she doesn't come across as being focused on beauty reviews.

I think I'm just soooo used to collaborations being with beauty bloggers or people in "the business." Like, I'd find it just as laughable if some clothing company picked a video blogger that sometimes does videos talking about some clothing she loves. 

And with Memebox....It sometimes feels like they just select a woman with tons of views, who kinda sort does some beauty stuff.

tt's nothing against her. It just seems like such an awkward, forced fit.

Maybe it's just me.

Totally get that. I also find it odd for her to be chosen to do it, but assuming it's due to her huge popularity. Lots of people they can reach with some pretty much free advertising I guess. Sucks for the reviewers who really DO have a passion for Memebox.

Yeah. That's what I really was just trying to say. It just feels like they focus on viewers.

And I feel like most of us are just like "Okay, can't you pick someone who makes us get excited about the products? Coffee Break with Dani made sense.

I mean, this makes less sense to me than CPM, to be honest.

I bought the bundle....Before getting Super Luckybox 11.

I am genuinely terrified for Box 12.

But still holding onto hope that the others are better. ....Plus, don't see us getting many boxes for the next month, hah.

Yea, as a subscriber and regular watcher of her vids I can say that she does a ton of beauty reviews. I think the latest one I was watching last night was on a collection of UD lippies with swatches. She also had one go up in the last week on the UD Naked On The Run palette. I think her "does this thing really work" vids are her most popular (ie have the most hits so they come up at the top of her search) just because they have a wider range of people interested in them, but even those tend to me beauty related products, and the pintrest test vids are beauty focused (like the crayon lipstick one mentioned earlier). Not saying that Memebox couldn't have found a better collab, but she does have millions of followers and a lot of makeup vids, so...

I'm thinking there might be a box tomorrow, could be wrong though.

We're all losing faith in this 12 Days of Christmas thing.

They need to do a new box or restock to get us interested again. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I think so, definitely. I'm in the US and mine is due by end of day on 12/17, so Australia should have theirs really soon.

I was just thinking the same thing.

It's 1:15 pm Wednesday in Sydney already. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[Mahsa]

The last couple of times I've waited for Australia spoilers they came late, I think it might also be because it's near Christmas, but it is pretty much mid morning / early afternoon across Australia at the moment
