Value $73

My thoughts
First I just want to go through one thing, it was a $32 + shipping box and I know people were disappointed with the value, one thing to remember is that memebox is depending on getting good prices on products they put in out boxes. They need to earn a profit on each box. Lesser know brands are often willing to sell their prices cheaper if it will make them more known, give them publicity and heighten their sales in the future. holika holika is a well known brand and isn´t willing to give as good prices. It´s also a cheaper brand which means their discounts are less noticeable.

 The nail polish sounds fun, it´s not a fall/winter color for me though so I´ll save it for spring and summer.

I kind of wish we got the jelly BB cream since I read some good review of that, but hopefully the primer will be good too! I don´t really need another primer at the moment, but I love the packaging and I love jelly products.
Aloe vera gels is a staple for me, I love having them around for irritated skin, burns etc. The packaging is adorable too!
The powder also had the most adorable packaging! I used to have a problem with bumps in my skin, thankfully my new Korean products has helped with that, but I still get some whiteheads that can look awful under makeup. I look forward to testing the powder and seeing if it dose what it say it dose.
Gel liners are popular in Korea and they´re amazing, but I´ve quite a collection atm. This one will probably be gifted so it dosen´t go to waist.
That lipstick is on of the cutest things I´ve seen! It´s very pigmented to so I´m very happy to get it.
Not too happy with the color of the eyeshadow I got, not sure what to do with it.
The cleansing oil is the highlight for me, I love carbonated products so trying a soda cleaning oil will be fun!

Overall I like this one better then the tonymoly. My favorites are the cleansing oil, lipstick and the aloe gel.

 Disclaimer: I purchased this box with my money. Afflicted links was used when making this post,

  1. I am getting this box soon and I am so looking forward to it. I know that people have complained over Brand boxes and I have too but this one looks really good. I have the Aqua gelly bb cream so its perfect to get the primer. Since I love Holika Holika I have tried most of the other products but not the BB cleanser and I am looking forward to that as well :) Thanks for the really great blog Ina :)

    1. I really like this box, I know a lot of people cancelled after seeing it unboxed, but you still get a lot for your money with the brand boxes, but just not as much as with more unknown brands. I really want to try the Aqua Jelly BB cream, but I´m drowning in BB creams so I can´t justify paying that much for another BB cream, fingers crossed for it to arrive in another box! The BB cleanser is one of the reasons I didn´t cancel the box, it sound so great!
      Thank you! =)
