Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[MissJexie]

Wow- the VIP coupons this month are dismal.

On a happy note, I got a bunch of Memebox lippies (2 crayons, 2 lipsticks 2 tint balms) and I'm kind of obsessed. If you have leftover points, buy some memebox-brand lip products. Seriously I'm so impressed with their line so far, and no one is more surprised by that than me! LOL

Thats what I'm thinking use my points for an eye shadow or something and take a break.

So, if you could pick only one meme product, which would you recommend?

(I'm down for whatever, my biggest criteria is unique. What have you tried that can't be easily duped?)

I personally am obsessed with the tonymoly tangerine hand cream. forget about bananas, it is the citrus that I crave!

 In my opinion, after having tried both eyeshadows and lip products, the lip products are much better than the eyeshadows.  I've tried the lipstick, lip crayons and tint balms and like them all.  Unique? Nah.  But good for the price? Yes.  Moisturizing? Yes.  Color packed? the Reds definitely are.  The tint I got is fun because it's that crazy neon pink but it doesn't apply that color, thankfully.  Just a nice very sheer hint of color.  The packaging is ace, imo, nice quality for what you're paying.

Lauren, who is the only person handling affiliate questions and review points is out this week.

BAH!  I guess I'll email Hi with my issue then.  Lauren hasn't gotten anywhere with my issue anyway so maybe someone else can get my contest ball rolling.

I totally agree. Just got the lip products today and I'm already super impressed. The packaging is top notch- even better than most of my high end lipsticks!

I received that one from tk this week and just ordered the peach.

Night Care box has sold out. Defo not as quick as they normally go.

And looks like the value sets aren't shifting as quickly as they want them to either given the code that's been handed out for VIP status. No codes for boxes whatsoever either so they moving more towards the shop than what made them popular. I can get most of the products cheaper elsewhere so why would I buy from them when I can save money, hassle and get elsewhere?

Oh memebox, your glory days are passed I fear and its ALL your undoing.

 

[WillowCat]

TesterKorea are selling all the Memebox own branded stuff for the same price as Memebox. So now there is no USP for Memebox....

 

[Alidolly]

Was it not today the naked boxes were meant to come out? Not that I'm remotely interested tbh.

 

[Jane George]

Probably about 5pm gmt

 

[Krystyn Lowe]

Yeah, it just hit midnight in the US-west coast, so probs 12 hours or so.

 

[Lorna ljblog]

Naked go up later . The VIP codes are awful. And I will not be buying value sets either now I know that yet do not supply memebox and that the products we were sold with the tints are not the real macoy. So that is innisfree and yet both saying they don't supply and yet saying those products are not for sale to the global market . And about the value box I got . I'm rather anoyed over the dangers

 

[Jane George]

I didn't know that about yet.... Not great and not happy.

 

[northtosouth]

I'm done with meme too. I was thrilled with night care (even at $29) because it contains a HG for me which is hard to get elsewhere... But that is my last purchase from them. I have lucky 13, 14 and two night cares to arrive and then I'm going to focus on enjoying my existing stash

Pm you

Surely they are reading these boards and beginning to at least get a bit twitchy? Rapidly falling sales, bloggers and you tube promotions well down. Are they deliberately trying to sabotage their own business? Looking objectively at it, it definitely appears that's the case! Seriously, why else would you radically change your business model, annoy your loyal (and people were) customer base and then ignore them, run dodgy if not illegal competitions and sell stuff that's potentially fake? No sane business would do that unless they wanted to fail or there were even bigger issues (Mr Taxman...is that you at the door...I'm just in the toilet...climbing out the window with the gold bullion under my arm lol!).

But in all seriousness, I cannot for the life of me understand their business plan at the moment. It can't be working for them...too many folk on here have said enough and gone elsewhere. We've given them the benefit for so long yet they still disappoint time and time again. Why would they do that? It makes no business sense...

 

[Alidolly]

OK I've the value set voucher plus 5 memepoints I want to get rid of. I'm torn between the Grinif set or the Secret Key one. Which do you think is better? Once I've placed the order, that's me through with memebox. Its unlikely I will be back either - well, not unless they radically change.

 

[Lorna ljblog]

Maybe the secret key but both are good sets . I'd compare prices on other sites to see which added up is the better deal.

 

[northtosouth]

Lorna will you PM me about the YET stuff too? I have a few masks from meme (and some from koreadepart)...
