Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[Jane George]

Tbh I have seen releases at 3am, 7am, 9am, 5pm and other times gmt in the past. Normally 7am though which means three of eight days I will miss out as hubby gets up with beany.

Here's an idea they could run with...having two releases for each box. Half at one time, other half 12 hours later. That way people round the world would at least have a chance of snagging a box (and not having to wake up at the crack of dawn or middle of the night). Would be easy enough to programme say 100 boxes to go live at 7am GMT and then another 100 (or whatever) 12 hours later...

Tbh I wonder if the people putting the releases on are in korea as the time seems to fit that

They used to do this! They'd release boxes for VIPs in the morning (EST), then release them again for the non-VIPs in the afternoon. It was great!

ETA: they did this with new boxes, not restocks.

Yeah used to be 7am and 3pm gmt releases when they released mon, weds and fri.

Yeah, but only VIPs knew about it. Having two release times would allow the newbies a chance at getting a new box as I remember when I first started trying to get a memebox, everything always seemed to be sold out! Yes it would still be a free for all at both these times but would be a little bit fairer for those who either can't nor want to get up in the middle of the night.

There seems to be so few of the restocked boxes and those value sets, that it would be hard to break them up into multiple stocking times. I think rotating the restock time each day would have be a nice touch. It's supposed to be customer appreciation week, not force our customers in the EST zone to mess up their sleep week. 

ETA: I know the time sucks for other time zones too, I'm just not familiar with them personally. 

 

[Alidolly]

So, it's now the 24th in South Korea, is that the Big Box event over then and there will be no further restocks? Kinda expected a bit more today than just the couple of new boxes and one value set....

I caved and got the mystery box. 

Also Memebox really needs spell check.

@ haha - go back a few pages and see how they described the snow white box!! typos are like easter eggs with memebox!

 

[Jane George]

Lol I thought she meant the Snow White box

I've never tried Memebox, but I think this might be the month!  Any suggestions or coupon codes?  The Mystery Box intrigues me!

 

[biancardi]

@@coffeecardigan we can't post coupon codes here but many of us blog about memebox and they would be there.

I personally went for the detox and renew box.   Baby soft skin sounds like it would be good for dry skin.

If you look in the sold out section, Oh! My Lips is still in stock and that is a really nice lip care box.  So is F/W Natural Makeup, but that isn't natural makeup.  If you like glitter and strobe cream, that box will make you happy!

Thanks for the suggestions!  

On a side note, why are we not able to post coupon codes on MUT anymore?  Just curious!  I missed the memo!

Hi there's normally a few folk with affiliate codes for $3 off $30 spend (it'll accept a $29.99 box though) if you do a google search as its against forum rules to post those links I'm afraid. A lot of the bloggers have them on their websites..

Be warned, once you start though...you'll be addicted when the boxes start arriving lol!!

Memebox can be dead frustrating most of the time...they have a weird business ethic but most of the time, the products are very good. Depending where in the world you are, snail mail shipping usually takes a couple of weeks. Express shipping 3-5 days but its expensive ($18.99 per box usually). The boxes now seem to contain 5 items. there are literally hundreds of you tube clips showing what's in some of the older boxes and Instagram has photos of more recent ones so you can see what's in the box. There's also the spoiler thread which has up to date reveals as soon as someone gets a box that's not already been unveiled.

Have fun!!

also, if you want to know what is in a box, the Fun Ingredients Naked Box (in the New boxes section) is really tailored to dry skin, but looks to be a nice box.

 

[Alidolly]

I'd second the fun ingredient box as a good starter one..lots of fun products in cute packaging such as the banana or wine cask.

 

[Jane George]

Yeah id agree fun is good for a new starter as it has a cheese cream and a sleeping pack. Also a hand cream I love, an essence with honey and a body cream.

 

[biancardi]

It is a fun box...but not for those with oily skin /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
