So I'll be off elsewhere and who knows how the internet will be at rented apartments.....I will take this opportunity to wish you ladies here a Merry, Merry Christmas!~  :wizard:  (in advance)

It won't be a white one here this year...sob. And it's awfully cold in Europe atm. I'll treat myself to some mulled wine or hot choc tomorrow.

Hopefully I can stay around in case awesome boxes pop up. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Train is at 12pm tmr, and I hope my postman would miraculously show up with my restock boxes and swaps before I leave~  :hehe:

 
Ok, I'm probably going to regret asking this, but can someone let me know exactly where donkey oil comes from as I've found info on donkey milk but not the oil. The one YouTube vid I found that mentions Cleomee sort of hinted (as I don't know Korean or Chinese so could only guess) where the oil was from - it showed the donkey being milked and the guy splashing that on hie face (as well as putting something else there too...I'll not elaborate). Can PM me if don't want to add to public forum and would be appreciated before I open the bottle I've got.

Thanks :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I haven't seen anyone post any definitive info about this here or on Facebook (and I've spent far too long trying to find the answer). I think I watched the same video as you, and it does make it seem like the oil does not come from the milk...

 
@@veritazy - have a fabulous Christmas and may Santa Meme bring new boxes of delight next year (with few repeats / near expiry date products) to all...
lol don't give them ideas. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Have a blast, ladies. *packs*

Yes...that's what I thought too. Kind of makes me a wee bit uncomfortable. Milk I can cope with, not so much the oil and I'd not want to put it on my face that's for sure.

Would love to try the Holika Holika Prime Youth Birds nest gold leaf cream though but its £35 on Ebay (and not any cheaper elsewhere). Packaging has me sold lol!!

 
Ohh my winter masks box is downstairs right now. I should go get it. But the mail room is in such disarray right now that I'm superstitious about going down to find out it's not there! hahahah That happened to my new popup tabletop photo studio yesterday--only one person can seem to locate my stuff! ahhahah

 
Just heard back from memebox re: expired facemask in Garden of Eden box. They said that "some boxes" unfortunately contained masks that had expired as they had been sent out before they noticed this was the case. They're crediting my account with 2 memepoints. They didnt say anything about the Shara Shara cream though.

Just got an email from Memebox apologizing for the expired Panda Eye Mask in the Garden box.  They have awarded me 2 points!  Which would be great... but I never ordered the Garden box?

Then... I get a 2nd email saying "oopsie" (that is what they wrote, I kid you not).  Previous email was not meant for me, but they wanted to apologize about a misunderstanding about the Lassie'el Lipstick Card in my Oh! My Lips box.  I only get one randomly chosen color and not six different colors.  Which is again great... but I haven't received my box yet.  It got on a plane headed for the U.S. 12/10 and has gone MIA ever since.  My other boxes that were shipped out later are being tracked properly and are out for delivery.  Oh well, guess I'll just have to be a patient penguin and wait.

that email on the oh my lips was ********. 

There are 6 colors in the box.  Not one.  What happened is that people got duplicate colors (I got 2 lucid oranges and was missing  Oriental red) and they are now stating that they are all randomly selected - so they can cover their behinds over the duplicate cards.   But the vendor doesn't market them that way and even the memecard states SIX DIFFERENT COLORS

I wrote them an email stating that what they said is untrue.

I got that email too!  Although in my case it was a mistake.   :eek: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />   

I wouldn't mind getting a point or three thrown my way for the Shara Shara balm though.  I realize it hasn't technically expired yet, but that product is rancid!!

@@biancardi  That is so odd that people ended up with duplicates then!  Any thoughts as to what you think happened to cause the problem?

 
have you ladies emailed them on the shara shara cream?  I got 4 points for the green seed oil balm that was in the next best thing in skin care

I think it is a vendor mess up.  Some people did get different colors, but a lot didn't.  Memebox probably got these for free from the vendor and they won't complain to the vendor about it and they won't give out points either for some reason.

the vendor messed it up in their production line and Memebox is just going to lie about it.

it isn't the dup lip cards.  It is the LYING.  Just state the vendor had a production issue, there are duplicated colors and so sorry for that - here is 1 point.

or don't even give me a point.  Just don't LIE about it.   It isn't as if people can't look this stuff up and find out that they are lying about it.

i received my anni box today! It is a really sad box... I think it's the worst I received uptodate! I have enough product, so I'll stay away for a while! (Unless an amazing value set or spoiled box appears)

Merry Christmas, @@veritazy

I hope you have a lovely one! ^^

I've sent a reply to their email saying that i realise that errors do occur (re: the mask) but that I still have a Shara Shara cream that I cannot use so will see if they reply to that part...
