Superbox #23 summermeeting

Sunscreen is something that is extremely expensive in Norway, you might have to spend $40 to get a high SPF cream! That was my main reason to get this box, since I knew that just getting one sunscreen would pay for this box. I also wanted to get a waterproof mascara, I don´t use it often, but it´s good to have available for summer and winter (snow storms).

First I´ll start with the information about memebox if you don't know about them yet (you definitely need to know about memebox!)

CNKCOS Transformer Solution 1t 170ml + 2nd 30ml $20

Product description
This is a mind-blowing summer beauty essential that works wonders in hydrating and soothing irritated skin after a hot day outdoors. The fun part of the cooling product is the face that you get to mix the 1st and 2nd solutions together and shake it, shake it. You´ll be able to witness something really cool as the mixture transforms itself into a yellow gel-type solution.

How to use
Pour in the 2nd solution into the 1st solution. Then, as the mixture slowly turns into a yellowish color, shake the bottle more the 10 times. When the solution has transformed itself into a gel, apply over red, irritated, or sun-burnt skin.

My thoughts
(I wrote this review on my instagram account in July)
We had a quite a few amazing summer days in Norway last week! We almost never get over 30 celsius. So even with my SPF 25 I got burned, that never happens! Perfectly I therefor got to try out the cnkcos transformer solution. My memecard tells me that it should hydrate, be smoothing for irritated skin and be cooling. Honestly I'm a bit afflicted with this product, I used it 3 times during yesterday and once today. I do feel it helped calm my skin and fade the redness. It dried fast and didn't leave my skin sticky, but it had this wired thing where my clothes would stick almost like a nose strip, but I only had to loosen it once. I didn't feel any cooling sensation and that's my biggest problem with this product! I feel like an after sun product should be cooling and help pain from sun burn. So I probably would not buy this product, but I will use it up. I did really like having to mix the product and it ends up almost like a light hair gel consistency!


borntree Bloom Mineral Avenue Air Fit Sun CC 15g $21

Value $160

My thoughts
This box had what I expected and more. I knew there had to be a sun screen, waterproof mascara and probably a after sun. I was happy to get all three although I didn´t like the after sun to much.
I tried the CC a few times this summer, but found that it was to light so I ended up saving it for winter. I did like how it wore and applied though!

I was also happy to get a whitening essence since that´s something my skin needs, but during summer I need more oil control so this is also something I´ve been waiting to try.

This box had several of the item I was expecting to see and I´m very happy with the items they chose for this box.
