Out of the ones remaining, @@Queennie, I think the Food Ingredient Box, Troubled Skin and Spa Retreat are pretty good - I am happy with all 3!
I love CosRX products, so that is another line that is good. They have the Shara Shara bomb ampoules there - it comes in the Shara Shara box (a pick between honey & berry) and that has been a product I've been interested in for a while now.
the too cool for school egg mousse and also the ghassol pack in a can - both of those foam masks in a can are really cool!
I second the Food Ingredient box. The contents are nice.
I still miss the old Memebox, though. /sigh Although I'm sure my wallet is really happy they made the switch, I have to admit. I buy far fewer boxes now and tend to just stick with buying products I know I want.

Hahaha!!! I tried this mask about a month ago and I couldn't STAND The sea kelp smell. Yeesh!!! It had really nice after effects but I like pampering time to not include squirming!
Did anyone else buy a Lucky Box? I had the points from the survey ( they sent 3 to 3 email accounts as usual) so I spent one set of points on a Lucky Box- nothing to lose that way. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
I got 10 products but I think some of the item may date back to the very beginning of the CA warehouse move.
I got my Lucky Box today and there's a strange, strong alcohol- smelling product that I've never seen on Memebox's site in the box. It says it is " Moksha Bidan Cream" on the jar top. There is nothing else readable on the jar or the box it came in. OK, my good buddy Google tells me that it's a moisturizing cream that Memebox discontinued before April of this year, and it has both alcohol and horse oil in it. I tend to think the jar I received has been in a warehouse for quite some time and turned rancid or expired or both. The lettering on the box is in a light peach color on textured paper so there's no way i'm going to know more. A moisturizing cream should probably not contain alcohol in my skincare world, nor ever contain so much that it's all I smell when I open the jar. Has anyone received this product and is it moisturizing ?
Also, if any of you have used it or know about it, is it supposed to smell like herbs and alcohol ( almost like a gin and tonic, really)?
Thanks in advance for any help with one of the few Memebox items with which I've been truly puzzled.
I did like the other products in the Lucky box very much, overall. Here's what I got- hiding as spoiler in case someone wants to be surprised. The rest is all workable, IMO.
Makeup by Evon matte llipstick in Darling Marsala ( I really love this)
Heart Tok Blusher powder by Peripera ( looks a lot like a US pressed facial powder-comes in cute heart shaped tin)
Missha Breezy Shower Gel in a berry scent ( appears to be around 300 ml size) ,
Skinfood Peach Sake Toner ( 135 ml bottle size)
3 Donkey MilklMasks by ( can't read company name )
2 Leaders Baby Soft Hand Masks.( wish they had been Baby Soft Foot Masks)
Not bad, not thrilling- have never seen the following products in any Memebox or even a Memebox review: Peripera blush but imagine it's left over from Valentine's Day, the before mentioned Moshka Bidan Cream which I do think is spoiled or rancid but which I found a review where Memebox gives the value as $46 which I'm saying NO WAY to that, nor the Missha Breezy Berry shower gel.
The box was quite heavy and I had high hopes but the weight is from the shower gel and the Skinfood Toner, both of which are substantial weight.
It's good to see some Memebox activity still going on. I've been away for most of the summer, and have missed more pages of this discussion than I could ever read. I hope everyone is doing well and I especially hope you ladies living in FL are safe . /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
@@LadyGordon I thought that was a typo at first. Maybe $39.00. Maybe. But $51.00? I don't think so. They don't even give good promo codes out anymore /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
our kbeauty forum is dying!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
anyway, I really loved the tonymoly earth beauty kelp mask I got in my August masks box and had written that memebox should carry all of the varieties of the earth beauty masks (rice, mud, bubble and kelp) in their shop
Well, Memebox just offered a value set of all 4 masks! 15.00
I got mine and am excited to try out the other ones!
Thank you for keeping it a float @@biancardi and posting and others who post too. Let's not let this die ladies. K-beauty products are so much more effective than main stream. I'm just blown away personally and I've used so many skin care products from high to low my whole life and can't believe how well K-beauty products work.
I just read an article about the proper way to apply an emulsion. It works like a serum and should be applied with finger tips, padded on, under a moisturizer. I'm sure you K-beauty veterans know this but I'm still learning. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20"> I started doing this instead of using a cotton pad and like the results so much better.
I'm still here too, just mostly reading. Oh how I miss the old Meme days of last summer and fall! This thread would be hundreds of posts longer everyday!
Reija emulsions are like western lotions, I use them a lot instead of heavier creams in the daytime since I lean oilier than dry, love 'em!
