@@crazysweet @@Jane George What about facial masks girls?! Do you use them often, or are they not something you use for dryness?

I simply like the feeling of them, so I wouldn't know... Sorry to be asking silly questions, I would think they'd feel nice for dry skin but I really don't know...

 
January box spoiler up and its not looking good girls...4 products and a couple of masks with the looks of it. If that's what they will be churning out now I'm really worried about the mystery and other boxes..

IGNORE - its the US starter kit instead. Still looks pretty ropey tbh.

@@athy I don't have really dry skin but I do like using masks. I think sleeping packs may have better results than sheet masks? I think the Tonymoly banana sleeping pack is really moisturizing. I put it on after my sheet mask and I would wake up with piling as it was just too much for my skin it couldn't absorb it all. But when I only use the sleeping pack my face absorb it all. Hope that helps. 

 
okay, just been chatting via email with Lauren about the promo codes

The free shipping promo code is working again - that is the free shipping whenever you purchase over 70.00 from the international shop.  I used this to purchase my apple scrubs (hugs) and a few other items, like the refining masks (cannot beat that price 5.00 for 10 masks?),  goddess cream and dewytree tea tree mask set.

These automated discounts that you get if you use an affiliate to purchase your items now should be working.  I haven't tested these out yet, but it looked like a "glitch" happened and now they should work

  • $5.00 discount on orders above $100.00
  • 10.00 discount on orders above $150.00

Yeah sleeping packs rock and I use the mangchee lifting pack as leave on mask after moisturiser during day
I wish I could try the Mangchee sometimes.

I'm using this one on days when my skin is clear but feels bleh and needs plumping:

Wake up to butt soft skin each time :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

Not sure what everyone thinks of it. Very stringy texture this.

 
I really like the sound of the second spoiler. Confession time... 

I have yet to find the love for mists. So while the description of the first spoiler sounds amazing, I don't want a mist.
I felt the same way because I kept getting mists with regular nozzles, but then I got one with a microfine nozzle and it's A++ GREAT! Someone who really knows her kbeauty stuff did my makeup and showed me how to use the mist to create dewier makeup and to blend concealer REALLY nicely. It's like a pro skills upgrade in a bottle. Between the mist and the Goodal product (which really don't get discounted) I'm tempted by the US set/box, but...I'm in major cleaning the whole house mode and I need to restrain myself. ahahah

 
Slightly off-topic as far as new & fun stuff goes, but I resubmitted a one-star review for the Cleopatra box, since Memebox removed my previous one as well as all the other negative reviews.  We'll see if they post it.  I tend to doubt they will.  Bah.

Do the microfine mists not leave that feeling that you're walking in that drizzly misty rain? That probably bothers me more than the sudden shock of spraying my face. I am happy I stopped shooting myself in the eyes though. 

 
I'm hoping that someone can help me learn more about how to (as easily as possible) translate the product ingredients from Korean to English. I have to take particular care with the products that I use and I find KB especially appealing because they tend to use more natural ingredients but that doesn't mean that I can use everything and I hesitate to use products when I can't figure out what they actually contain. I have some vague memory (or maybe it was all a dream) that there was some way to get all of those lovely Korean characters to become English words with meaning I could understand. Anyone?  (and I ask here because in my potential dream reference of a way to do this, I think that it was on this thread). Thank you!

This doesn't always work out so well, but there's a Google Translate phone app. It allows you to take a picture of the text you are trying to translate then translate it for you. I know that are constantly trying to update it because when I first downloaded it, there were a lot of kinks. The newest update made it a little better but it still doesn't always work. 

I also look for the products home websites and use Google translate on it in general to find the translations, but that can take more time.  However, for both ways, sometime the ingredients don't translate over correctly. 

 
Decided I'd treat hubby to the gentleman set as its only $12 and will do as a valentine day present. He's using one of the moisturisers from one of my boxes at the moment so might like a few more products but that are aimed more towards him.

Did a triple cleanse last night - etude house oil, tony moly grapefruit foaming cleaner then a Ren hot cloth (which I love and feel gives me the best cleanse out the lot of them). Added some Milkydress rose toner and finished with Milkydress eye gel and Mizon starfish all in one. Before i went to bed i added the Piseo and...No spots today! (result as in the past my face would have been a mass of red angry welts with that many products!). Still think I'm a long way from finding holy grail products that make me look $1 million but hubby said my face was looking a lot brighter and smoother so there's hope yet for the old girl!

I love this product! I just finished the tube and I'm sad. It was an absolute lifesaver for my dehydrated skin.
