Missha Super Aqua D-Tox Peeling Gel ($15)
Made from fruit extracts, this gel works by scrubbing the skin with tiny beads revealing clearer, cleaner, and healthier looking skin. Milk extracts give the skin a natural glow while caffeine and green tea extracts rejuvenate and refresh tired, dull looking skin.
How to use: Wash face and towel dry. Get an appropriate amount and apply it over the face, avoiding eye and lip areas. Gently massage face to remove dead skin cells and wastes. Thoroughly rinse face with lukewarm water. Recommended to use 1-2 times a week.
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Cellulose, Butylene Glycol, Dipropylene Glycol, Morus Alba Bark Extract, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Water, Milk Lipids, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Actinidia Chinensis (Kiwi) Fruit Extract, Oxygen, Triethanolamine, Caprylyl Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Betaine, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Sodium Citrate, Citric Acid, Mannitol, Pentylene Glycol, Sodium PCA, Disodium Adenosine Triphosphate, Lactic Acid, Serine, Sodium Lactate, Sorbitol, Urea, 1,2-Hexanediol, Algin, Sodium Chloride, Allantoin, Bromelain, Papain, Carbomer, Caffeine, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance(Parfum)
After trying the Secret Key Lemon D-Toc Peeling Gel I'm curious about how it compares to other brands. I like how my skin feels after using the Secret Key one and I'm going through the product much faster than I thought I would. It's always good to have a backup sitting around. I'll keep you updated on what I think about the Missha Peeling Gel once I get around to using it.

Goodal Phytorain Murumuru Seed Hydra Emulsion ($29)
A highly concentrated formula that penetrates deeply into the skin to create a protective barrier that locks in moisture and nutrients to calm, brighten, and maintain a healthy level of natural water-oil balance.
How to use: After toner, apply adequate amount from center toward contours.
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Octyldodecyl Myristate, Butylene Glycol, Macadamia Integrifolia Seed Oil, GlycerylStearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter, Dimethicone, Polysorbate 60, Glyceryl Caprylate, PEG-100Stearate, Sorbitan Stearate, Stearic Acid, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Beeswax, Caprylyl Glycol, SodiumAcrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter,Caffeine, Isohexadecane, Allantoin, Polysorbate 80, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Disodium EDTA, Citrus Grandis(Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Lavandula Hybrida Oil, Bertholletia Excelsa Seed Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil,Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil, Sucrose, Ribes Nigrum (Black Currant) Seed Oil, Citrus AurantiumBergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Cedrus Atlantica Bark Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Grandis(Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Serine, Arginine, PCA, Rosa Damascena Flower Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender)Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract, Alanine, Illicium Verum (Anise) Fruit/Seed Oil, Threonine, Coriandrum Sativum (Coriander) Fruit Oil,Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Oil, Mourera Fluviatilis Extract, Artemisia Absinthium Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) FlowerExtract, Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract, Santalum Album (Sandalwood) Oil
This is geared for normal to dry skin so I'll test it out during the winter. I've acquired quite a bit of Goodal products through Memeboxes but I haven't had a chance to try them out. I just went through all my skincare products and marked in expiration dates so I knew which ones needed to be used first. I'm set for skincare until the end of 2017. Anyway, I hear good things about Goodal so I may do a one brand skincare review at some point in the future.

Ariul Spa Water "24 hour Moisturizing" De-Tox Mask ($26)
Creates hydrating and pore clarifying bubbles that penetrate deep into the skin. It effectively removes all pore-clogging impurities and blackheads for good! These sparkling bubbles will not only leave your skin spick-and-span but also deliver deep moisturizing, brightening, and tightening results! Highly recommended for those who suffer from dry and easily irritated skin, this detoxifying mask will detox and clarify without stripping the skin of natural oils.
How to use: Work a lather into hands. Massage on the face. Rinse.
Ingredients: Purified Water, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Disodium cocoamphodiacetate, Acrylates Copolymer, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamide DEA, TEA-COCOYL GLUTAMATE, Methyl perfluorobutyl ether, Methyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether, Sodium Cocamidopropyl PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate, Ethylhexyl Isononanoate, Isononyl Isononanoate, Polyhydroxystearic acid, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Arctium Lappa Root Extract, Linum Usitatissimum Seed Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Hibiscus Esculentus Fruit Extract, Xanthan Gum, Titanium Dioxide, Betaine, Synthetic fluorphlogopite, Aspergillus/rice Ferment Filtrate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propyl para-hydroxybenzoate
As I was reading through the instructions, I was a little confused if this was a face wash or mask. It is a face wash. You have to receive at least one face wash in every box in order to call it a Memebox! Most Korean products expire two years from the date written on the bottle or packaging but what's written on the De-Tox Mask is 20151220 까지. This means it expires on 12/20/2015. I'm a little hesitant to use this because the sodium laureth sulfate is a acne trigger (3) and irritant according to CosDNA. I've been battling some intense hormonal cystic acne on my chin and very cautious of introducing new products.
Secret Key Multi Cell Night Repair Ampoule ($25)
This magical ampoule contains tomato, green tea, and grape stem cells which can regenerate and increase collagen synthesis, and promote cell regeneration. Also high in antioxidants that help protect skin cells against harmful UV rays.
How to use: Apply dime size amount to skin and tap lightly for absorption.
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Arbutin, Niacinamide, Ethanol, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Methylparaben, Cyclopentasiloxane Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Xanthan Gum, Tomato Extract, Green Tea Extract, Grape Extract, Adenosine, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance
I received this ampoule in the SPF Box which, by the way, I consider to be one of the best boxes so far this year. Ironically the only product I haven't used in the box is this Secret Key Ampoule. The packaging and product are supposedly very similar to the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair.
Leaders Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch ($14.50)
The hydrogel eye therapy patch cools the skin while brightening dark areas around the eyes and increasing firmness. Active ingredients, broccoli extract and marine collagen, help to reduce puffiness and diminish the signs of aging.
How to use: Apply to under-eye area after cleansing and toner. Place on face and remove the white film. Remove the patch after 20-30 minutes and gently massage the remaining serum.
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Ceratonia Siliqua Gum, 1,2-Hexanediol, Chondrus Crispus, Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract, Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract, Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Hydrolyzed collagen, Seawater, Snail Secretion Filtrate, Vaccinium Angustifolium Fruit Extract, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Rubus Idaeus Fruit Extract, Rubus Fruticosus Fruit Extract, Fragaria Chiloensis Fruit Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Brassica Oleracea Italica Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Adenosine, Disodium EDTA, Potassium Hydroxide, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Ascorbyl Glucoside, Fragrance
I love Leaders Hydrogel sheet masks so I'm sure I'll really enjoy the eye patches. Memebox recently had a 25% off promotion when purchasing Leaders skincare and I had to fight the urge to impulsively buy their products. At this point I'm hoarding skincare and it would be wasteful to purchase individual products that aren't from a subscription box. That's how I rationalize buying subscription services.
Lioele Dollish Eye Shadow Duo in No. 1 Golden Godiva ($14.40)
A palette of highly pigmented baked eye shadows that highlight your eyes and it lets you make perfect smokey eyes. Its creamy soft texture gives long-lasting color. Soft and long lasting texture eyeshadow provides good skin adhesion and boasts luxurious color of pearls.
How to use: Apply base color over the entire eyelid then blend with other colors evenly from the lash line to brow bone. Use fingers or eyeshadow brush.
Lioele has such pretty, princess-y packaging. There's a mini shadow applicator and a nice mirror included. I'm not sure if I'll keep this or set aside for a future giveaway.
Peripera Letter Me Waterproof Eye Crayon in 4 UR Sunshine ($10)
A waterproof crayon that can add sparkle to your eye without fading or smudging. It’s creamy formula makes application effortless. Comes with a felt tip to help you blend the color on your lids.
How to use: Apply directly to eye and use the sponge tip on the other end to blend out any harsh edges.
7 shades available:
1 I Love You
2 Hug Me
3 Love Me Lots
4 UR Sunshine
5 Last Second
6 Curiosity
7 So Bad
Cute packaging but I might also put this in the giveaway pile. While a waterproof eye crayon is appealing, I'm not a fan of this particular shade.
MakeupByEvon x Memebox #HDReady Cream Matte Lipstick ($10)
Matte never goes out of style. Evon designed the perfect cream matte lipstick which sets to a velvety semi-matte finish formulated with Memebox in three different shades from the Marsala family.
#01 Shy Marsala- classic pinky nude beige (the shade I received)
#02 True Marsala- warm soft brown with a hint of marsala red undertone
#03 Daring Marsala- a bold, rich wine aka Pantone marsala
How to use: For the lips exfoliate and moisturize prior to use. Apply using the doe foot applicator or a lip brush. For the cheeks apply a few dots along the cheekbones and blend.
Ingredients: Dimethicone, Kaolin,Phenyl Trimethicone, Diisostearyl Malate, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2,Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer, Silica, Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer, Polyethylene, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer,Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate, Iron Oxides (CI 77491), VP/Hexadecene Copolymer, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Sorbitan Isostearate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Tocopheryl Acetate,Polyglyceryl-2 Diisostearate, Dehydroacetic Acid, Fragrance(Parfum), Iron Oxides (CI 77492),Iron Oxides (CI 77499),Red 7 (CI 15850:1), Blue 1 Lake (CI 42090)
I've only swatched and worn the lipstick on my lips once so I can't give you a detailed review. However, I like the formula more than I liked Soyoung's Lovely Lip & Cheek. I find the lipstick to have a matte finish and not semi-matte. You do have to make sure your lips are moisturized beforehand but it won't dry out your lips if they're taken care of. There's no stickiness and the pigmentation is good. BUT I don't like the floral scent and there's a taste to the lipstick. I'm not sure if I can get past the taste but I'll try wearing this a few more times and make a decision.

FINAL THOUGHTS
I am very happy with the contents of the box and it far exceeded my expectations. The overall value of the box was well over $100 for $29 and came with a handful of samples. I was a little concerned most of the products would be close to expiring and the Ariul De-Tox Mask is the only one that needs to be used immediately. I should have ordered another box but that might have been pushing my luck. The Lucky Box is currently sold out but I'm sure Memebox will bring out another box like this again in the future.
It's nice to be back and thanks for stopping by!
