Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[Alidolly]

I'd rather they released the boxes on one day only but offered the bundles with express shipping again so if you wanted to get both then you didn't have to pay snail mail for each of them. Id still probably only have bought the one box this week but would have given those that are new the chance to snap up both boxes and get them quickly (or those who wanted to review both for their blogs etc)

I like that the boxes are shipped the same/next day and we can see spoilers before we buy!

Cleansing wipes

Oh poo, no! I forgot about cleansing wipes. DNW!

 

[LoveSkinCare]

Eye makeup remover too as that is part of cleansing, and maybe a scrub or clay mask.

I'm really curious to see the card because the way they worded it, saying "we’ve curated the best morning and night cleansing routine-in-a-box", using the word routine, has me hoping that maybe there are some other products in there with the cleansers.... Probably not, but I can hope, right? 

 

[Theblondeangel]

Haven't ordered the cleanse morning & night, but dnt know if im going too.. Just have so much cleansing products already. You girls think it will be here after the spoiler is released?

Happy new years btw! :wub:   Been so busy, haven't had a chance to be around. Been moving /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Instagram winner of the 7 day resolution photo thing is a lady from New York that is a fashion and beauty blogger with over 61.4k followers. Whats the odds that we will soon be seeing a collab box or haul of fame soon from Koreandoll?

Guess I must be getting cynical in my old age...

 

[detroitjewel]

I am so annoyed by that too @@Alidolly! I am also annoyed that they basically copied my last photo collage where I posted all my resolutions as a memebox- for her winning announcement. Gah.

She also posted her photos past the last day... Hhmm.

Its all so 'reward the "gurus" so we get more business" behavior... Not let's actually reward our fan base.

Haha I also sound bitter /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I was going to wait and see if I won before I bought a new box, but I was too disgusted to give them more money so I bought some Siberian beauty products instead! I'm excited and now its all water under the memebridge.

In my experience, Korean foam cleansers are too drying for my skin, I still yet to find one that is not drying.

I have tried the Face Shop 365 Days Foam in mungbeans which smells amazing but sadly, drying.

I tried the Awesome foam cleanser from Cooling Box, also drying /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have the Climax water pool cleanser, drying and have a high PH

I like the DelSkin Camellia oil cleanser that I won from Memebox Review event, that one is good. Not drying and though gentle, removes makeup well. I was expecting a heavy oil consistency but it is light and bubbles when rubbed. But it is an oil cleanser (which is very rarely featured in boxes). I'm eager to try more oil cleansers!

 

[Alidolly]

Glad its not just me then..I didn't want to come over as all bitter and toys out the pram because I didn't win (I'm a newbie on Instagram so only have about 140 followers lol!) so didnt really expect to win anyway but this is just so blatantly obvious to attract new customers that follow koreandoll into buying Memeboxes. I'm sure she's a nice enough lassie and all that but it was hardly a fair competition if it was based on followers rather than images / resolutions.

Oh thank god I thought I was the only one annoyed . And she didn't join in till day 3 and back posted her photos . I thought the point was you posted from the actual start day for each day . Then I saw her viewers jump huge numbers from day 5. I kind of knew where it was going like I now see the Pinterest company went . Already pre organised and winner known and a fashion beauty blogger with barely many previous in boxings shown . This was not for fans at all. I wasn't going to join in then thought what the heck why not . The last comp for me and once points are used im not interested no more .

 

[Alidolly]

I'm the same, once I've used my points I'm off as I've had enough of Memebox. This was the final straw. I suspected they'd chose a blogger with a existing following but never thought they'd be so blatant about it. Utterly disgusted. There are now so many other options (testerkorea, Roseroseshop, BeautyNetKorea, KoreaDepart, Beauteque to name but a few). I've also just signed up to You Beauty as its only £6.95 a box so between that, My Little Box and orders from the Korean online stores like Etude House, I can live without Memebox.

 

[detroitjewel]

I just began my memebox journey and even I opened my parachute. I just don't feel the love.

 

[Butterflylion]

You beauty discovery really good but have to pick early or miss out on the best products, I choose the elemis cream and cleaning balm, waiting for meme cough up my points ( 4 points for leaking rire patting water it really doesn't travel well) so I can put it towards the night care box

 

[Jane George]

I hate that ybd changed the time and unsubed in dec as nothing jumped out at me. I think over time they have gone down hill a bit. Still worth it but a lot of repeats for me after being with them almost from the start.

As for korean products and memebox. Still peed off over brush and Gonna buy one box then have a break.

 

[Alidolly]

I'll give YB box a few months and will see how it goes. Its not a lot expensewise and once I start getting repeats, I'll cancel. Sort of like memebox..,starting to get a few repeats lol!! Did put in a Mizon order with Roseroseshop (as free shipping with that brand at the moment). Really wanted to try the twilight mist as the bottle looked so cool...yes, I'm that sad /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[Jane George]

I bought the mizon cheese cream from testerkorea. Can't wait to get it.

Totally agree. This winter weather really merits some deep moisturization up in Canada. I recently bought the Real Art cleansing oil by Etude House which has good reviews all over. It also has 3 formulations depending on your skin type. A super light oil and a deep one for super dry skin. Looking at the ingredients they really did change up the types of oils used to compliment skin types. I started with the moderate version as I am a combination type.

I'm surprised there aren't more oil cleansers in Memeboxes. Asia brought us the oil cleanser, and North America is still in the dark about them. Makes sense to clean the oil off your skin with oil.

"Toys out the pram" ...Lol! That's one I don't know. Great imagery! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
