Memebox Ariul Detox Box

I've really been into sheet masks these days and stumbled upon the Ariul Detox Box on Memebox. It comes with 11 Ariul masks and two other products. There is a little price discrepancy between what's listed on the information card provided and the website. For instance, the Avocado mask is listed as $2.50 on the site so the total value for 3 should be $7.50 rather than $6. The Lemon masks are priced lower on the info card, 2 for $4, whereas the site lists an individual one for $2.50. I have noticed several instances where Memebox will adjust product prices, particularly if there's a sale going on. Just saying, obviously I spend a little too much time on the site to notice such activities.

Goodal Watery Blue Flower Calming Mask Review

I was going through my used sheet masks to feature in an upcoming empty products post when I realized it would be easier to write up individual mask reviews that were a little more detailed. With that said, I saw the Goodal Blue Flower Calming Masks on the Memebox site (they were also sold on Hautelook not too long ago) and thought they might help with my skin issues.

You can accumulate points with each box and redeem those points at the Birchbox shop. If you review all your products in each monthly box, you can accumulate 50 points which is equivalent to $5 and half the value of the box.

Memebox Botanic Farm Sparkling Pop Set

About a month ago Memebox provided a discount code of 25% off specified sparkling water products. There were products from 3 brands (Leader Insolution, Innisfree, and Botanic Farm) and I chose to go with the Botanic Farm Sparkling Pop Set.

Sparkling mineral water has become quite popular in Korean skincare lately because the minerals in it contain healing properties which can soothe irritated skin and stimulate the skin by improving blood circulation which helps in collagen production.

Son & Park Skin Fit Foundation SPF 45 PA++ Review

I have a weakness for stick foundations so I had to try out the Skin Fit Foundation from Son & Park when I saw it sold on Memebox in early August. (I reviewed two lip crayons from Son & Park not too long ago. Read here if you're interested.)

Memebox Haul #3

Lately I seem to be writing mostly about hauls so I'm behind on reviews. Going out of town again this weekend but I'll have more reviews up next week or the week after that.
If you've been following my blog recently you'll know that I've been struggling with my skin, particularly in the lower parts of my face and jawline. As soon as one side clears up I have another massive breakout and the cycle continues. It's been a source of frustration and embarrassment particularly since I had clear skin through my twenties and the early part of my thirties. I've been enjoying sheet masks as a way of soothing and calming any acne flareups so I decided to make an order with Memebox.

City Pharma Haul + Paris Highlights

I'm baaack! For those of you that don't follow my Facebook page (click the like button to the right) I've just returned from Paris. I got engaged there and this trip was to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It was great to return to the city, rediscover the places we previously visited, explore new sites, and eat delicious food.
