Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[ctr64]

Hi everyone - long time reader but this is my first post!

Saw these with a search for "nakedbox".  At $40 - too expensive for me.

Gifts for Friends:  http://us.memebox.com/gifts-for-friends#.VLgKGfldWT8

yep, they're adding them as we speak...  Not interested at $40  I'd rather get a value set of benton goodies

The "Gifts for friends" is cute, wish it came with that little spongy heart lol. So there's only two new naked boxes?

 

[Lorna ljblog]

Well naked boxes were same price as globals before $23.00 so this must be the new superbox/ special limited box prices . Wow memebox going to need to up the products and game for people to buy into $4o each

So hard to google the Fun Ingredients items. I just keep getting links for recipes.

Hahha Me too!

Must admit, they are both cute but $40... That's a bit steep if they aren't going to hand out any $5 off boxes. It does seem to be free shipping though so would be $33 per box.

 

[Alidolly]

Might get the fun box as I can use those 5 points plus a $3 code and brings it down to $32 which is better. I had been looking at the tony moly hand cream and the wine sleeping pack for a while....hmm. Will I, Won't I? Part of my doesnt want to spend another penny with them but it would mean I'd be at least getting something I had been after anyway.....oh...

 

[Paulina PS]

I like those Borntree cushions in Nakedbox #2. Anyone knows where to get them?

 

[formul8edphrase]

Wow, Memebox, it really doesn't qualify as free shipping if you raise the price of the box $7 to compensate.

Or seventeen lol

Oh my word. WHO is in charge of Memebox now? 
The idea that a Nakedbox costing $40 is a good idea is stupid.

Also, one has repeat ( as in stock clearance) products in it. I have every item in the box, I think.

How far can they slide til there's no lower they can go with the boxes?  NO VIP codes for boxes, no value set options on the sanely priced boxes, just to heck with their loyal customers. 

I think I'm cancelling my sole account as soon as I receive the 2 boxes I wish I hadn't ordered and  my Shop order of the new stick eye shadows and the new bright powder shadows 1 day before they gave us a discount on shop stuff.

I had a bad day at work, I come back and what do I see... useless vip codes and $40 boxes... Can it get worse?!?! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

But I still haven't hit the buy button yet..maybe I'm hoping they are reading the comments and will lower the price of the boxes to $35 with free shipping...with the voucher and points I would get it but..just...can't....hit...buy...

 

[Jane George]

Tbh if ppl buy at these prices they are just encouraging them and it will mean that becomes the standard price

Fun Ingredients seems interesting, but... I'm tired of all the unused stuff that I have to deal with. I sent a 5-pound box of the better stuff I've tried and didn't love to my mom this morning--that's kind of a sign that this isn't working. I would rather have one amazing $40 item than a box of meh.

I want to love Memebox again, but the Nakedboxes don't seem to be the way. The old Nakedboxes had Chosungah22, LJH, Miguhara, etc in them. These ones are not on that level. And they cost a lot more. I'd pay far more than $40 for another Peach & Lily box or a box curated by Kerry from Skin & Tonics, but the Memebox curation seems to be driven so much by the bottom line and not the products that... no. Just no.

 

[Lorna ljblog]

I'm just like why are they buying at this price ,to buy separate it still works out cheaper ,by buying memebox will keep the price, and just think uk and european ladies think of the customs charge yo will get on the box maybe,

 

[Jane George]

I love my banana tbh and it is almost empty but the rrp is high on that.
