@@LisaLeah I got the Leaders skincare items, too

I wish I would have got the Salmon Egg stuff too, maybe I will get it with my Memepoints. I keep seeing it on the site and a demo on the Memebox Facebook page makes me want to try it.

 
New Summer Bombshell box

I just opened my Super Aqua Moist Peeling Lotion from the Spa Retreat Box - the date stamped on it is 20140430. Is that when it expired or when it was made? Everything else seems to have the expiration date stamped on it!

Thanks much!

 
Thank you! I'm pretty sure this is not the first time I asked that question and I doubt it will be the last!!

 
Are the Korean hair care products as good as their skin care? I've got some of the hair care products in boxes but haven't tried them yet. I don't have a problem trying whatever on my face but my hair is another story.

@@Reija I know folks liked the Mise en Scéne product and the CC hair booster. Most Korean hair treatments are too rich for my hair type, so I will pass on this box.

I did get a few great hair products in the missha box that were more suited to my hair type - the scalf (haha) treatment and the serum.

not memembox - but the cooling shampoo by skylake is amazing too.

 
I got my mask box and OMG - the kelp mask - the sheet mask is actually made from kelp!! hahaha

I am going to use this tomorrow....
That sounds interesting. Please let us know how it goes. Never knew I might need a kelp mask but I learn new things every day. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20"> This no buy is killing me or I would be trying things. Actually it's a good thing to be on no buy I just don't want to see the big picture. Instant gratification all the way. lol

 
btw, a new box is on memebox - shara shara - I've been wanting to try that honey bomb for a while, so I did get it. However, it can be a honey or berry bomb ampoule - but either one is good

so, without further ado, my kelp mask - I put this in the spoiler as it does include a scary selfie!!  I actually used this last night, as I couldn't wait...haha

Initial ImpressionsWell, I have to say I never have seen a mask quite like this before! It is a piece of kelp, for sure :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  It is thicker than most masks and does have the same slimy feel as a hydrogel. Unlike a hydrogel mask, this one didn’t slide too badly down my face, as it does not really act like a “second” skin to my face.  It does have a bit of a hard time contouring to my facial shape ~ you can see that especially with my nose and chin in the photo below (yes, I did a rare selfie!!)  That said, it is a very refreshing and cooling mask and the scent is a seaweed scent ~ I personally didn’t have issues with it, as I do love the smell of kelp, but if you aren’t used to it, it might be off putting.  I find the scent not to be overpowering, however, so it doesn’t bother me too much. 



As you can see, the essence is a yellowish color, which I do think is because the green color of the kelp “stained” it.  There is enough essence on this mask and what little remained on the plastic protector sheets, I just put on my neck and arms, you can even see a bit of kelp stuck on my neck!   After I removed the mask, I did have yellow essence spots all over my face, but I just patted it in.  I do recommend that this mask be used at nighttime, before you go to bed, to get the full benefits of the ingredients.   I found that my face was smooth, hydrated and very moisturized, even after I woke up in the morning!  I purposely didn’t put a sleep pack on, just to see what the effects would be like.   I really do like this mask, and I want to try the other Earth Beauty masks in this series ~ mud, rice and bubble.  



Description: This sheet mask is made of real sea kelp and soaked in a moisturizing, elasticity boosting essence to reveal beautiful skin. The sea kelp acts as a magnet that attracts harmful bacteria and pollutants to detox the skin, while the essence is rich in minerals and active ingredients that will boost the skin’s collagen production so skin can remain youthful.

How To Use: After cleansing and toning carefully apply the sheet mask. Leave on for 15~20  minutes and remove. Pat remaining essence for better absorption.
