I'm so excited to share what I received in my first ever Memebox with you (with thanks to a coupon code from the lovely Which Beauty Box UK). Memebox offers non-subscription, or 'one-off' beauty boxes shipped internationally and directly from S. Korea. You're able to choose from tens of 'themes' (new ones released every week), ranging from products from single brands or ones for target skincare problems. Even though the items you receive are not personalised, there is a lovely element of surprise in that nothing is usually revealed until you receive the box itself!
You may already know that Korea is infamous for its high-performance beauty products, which are years (or even decades) ahead of Western technology. I simply couldn't resist the opportunity to grab one of these before it's completely sold out!
The theme I chose is the Special #6 Whole Grain, which claimed to include organic & natural skin and body products to "buff away dead skin cells and encourage surface cell turnover". And as more skin is being currently bared than usual, I thought it would be an ideal theme for the Summer.
In total I received 9 full size products, of an overall value of $85 (just under £50) but retailed at just $23 + $6.99 shipping (just under £18)!
A solid bar for your face! I am so intrigued about this product, it contains natural oils, many pulses and I assume it is soap-free.
2. Herbclinic Rice Bran Powder 80g ($8)
The best way to describe this is that it is a porridge mixture for your face, designed to be mixed with starchy grains and milk to form a revitalising mask.
3. Purebess Galactomyces 100% 50ml ($15)
Galactomyces is a proven antioxidant and hydrating agent. I have already tried this and it's a PERFECT replacement for serum as a lightweight moisturiser.
4. Purebess Galactomyces 80 Eye Cream 50ml ($20)
Having also used (and loving) this, this huge eye & wrinkle cream is super easily-absorbed and provides great nourishment to the delicate eye area. 5. Anti-Stress Heat Therapy Mask Oatmeal 150ml ($12)
Aimed for congested and/or stressed dry skin, this self-heating mask sounds amazing for pamper days.
6. 2 x Purederm Rice Bran Collagen Mask 18ml ($5)
Much excitement was had when I found sheet masks here. This Vitamin E packed formula should enhance natural glow and smooth out a dull complextion.
7. Purederm Daily Moisturizing Hand Mask Oatmeal 1 pair ($7)
A leave-in conditioner for coarse rough hands - simply cannot wait to try this.
8. Purederm Invigorating Foot Scrub Walnut 25ml ($4)
A natural blend of exfoliants to remove dead skin from feet, knees and elbows. Again can't really go wrong and am so looking forward to using this!
--------------------------------------
All in all, this was an INCREDIBLE beauty box and will definitely be re-purchasing from Memebox (buy yours HERE). You should all definitely check out their website - there is something for every skin concern and makeup need, and you will always be guaranteed products worth at least three times of the boxes' original value.
Hope you're all having a beautiful weekend, all this sun is making me ever so happy.
Lots of love as always,
