Haven't had hauls in awhile! My friend (shout out to Lia) told me about Memebox (pronounced mee-mee-box, not meem-box), which is essentially a box containing a number of Korean beauty product goodies to try.
 
Warning: Image heavy 
 
 If you've heard of Ipsy or Birchbox (and there are a ton more out there), Memebox has the same concept only with Korean beauty products. Check it out here if you're from Korea and here for the rest of the world. If you go around the website, it'll explain the different types of boxes they have to offer.
 


The best part (or not depending who you are) is the mystery of what you're going to get, so I ordered the Luckybox #3 and will show you what I got. Look how nicely presented it is when I open it!
 
 
I took the descriptions of the items with a good camera, so hopefully you can see.



Here are the items laid out:


(Yes those masks have Psy on them XD)


Doing the math with the sample sizes I received and the prices of the full sized products, this box is worth $96.37, whereas I paid $23 USD. Considering the Dr. Jart V7 Eye Serum they sent was full size and costs $38, that itself is already worth more than the amount I paid. 

They also have a reward point system where 1 point = 1 USD and you automatically get 2 points when you join. For more, you need to look out for their promotions.

What do you think?

Disclaimer: Memebox did not sponsor the package or pay for me to write this post.

Since two of the writers tried out this product, we will each write about what we think of it.
Here are the product reviews continuing from The Face Shop haul last week. This time, I included a video at the bottom if you want to get to know the products better.

Volcanic Clay Black Head Heating Gel Mask

Let's switch things up a bit with Korean cosmetic brands and move on to The Face Shop
This post is dedicated to Nature Republic's Given by Nature Mask Sheets. They come in different ingredients and I would like to show the ones that stood out to me. 

Hello again K-Stylists! Can you believe it's already my second post? Hope you're excited as I am because I would like to try a new category on this blog - hauls! I have never done one in my life before, so here goes nothing:

Nature Republic Hand Cream

This is the tie-in from the previous nail polish post.

Before reading, this post is image heavy and may not make the most sense.
Something different!!

A very different post here. It's an unboxing. You have probably seen an Influenster VoxBox unboxing or heard of it. In USA, bloggers and Youtubers get a lot of them year round. They finally decided to have one for Canada, the Maple Voxbox, how fitting. I am in Canada so I got one!
This came fast. I ordered a gift card two weeks ago and this came here first.

I wanted to do a video but I'm sick. Nobody wants to hear a sick ramble randomly for three minutes and more.
Here is what the box looks like. It's actually smaller than it appears.
Hey guys.
A couple of weeks ago we made a coloured circle lenses post, and it seems that many of you showed interest in lenses, so we thought that maybe we should try doing reviews.
Geocolouredlenses was kind enough to sponsor us with a pair. They let me choose what lenses I want, and I picked up the Geo Twins YH-301.

This is what the package contains:
-2 circle lens vials
-lens case
-instruction
-business card

Do you love Korean face products? Yes? Then Tony Moly is the place for you! Tony Moly is one of many face shops in Korea with a vast array of products. I recently interviewed a sales woman from Tony Moly, and she graciously shared some of her favorite items and also why you should shop there whilst in Korea!
_____

What's your name and how long have you worked at Tony Moly?

My name is Lee Hee Jin and I've worked at Tony Moly for 3 years. Also I'm in college learning English!

What's your personal favorite item Tony Moly sells and why? Do you like nail polish? I love nail polish. :D

My favorite item is the Backstage Jell Liner because it's waterproof and was featured on the Beauty TV channel as a top product so its really good. And yes I love nail polish. My favorite color to wear is orange!



TONY MOLY Backstage Gel Eye Liner $7.49

BB Cream is very popular in Korea and is growing in popularity overseas. If someone wanted to purchase some from Tony Moly, which should they try? What are its best qualities?

Yes, BB cream is very popular in Korea. Our best BB Cream is Luminous Goddess Aura Beam with SPF 30. It's a color change BB Cream so when you put it on and rub it in it turns to your skin completion so it's good as a foundation. Also it has a moisture base so it's great for your skin.

Summer is quickly approaching. What is the must have product for the season?

 Definitely the must have product for the summer is sunscreen. We have a really great one called UV Sunset Moisture Sun cream that is oil free. I would definitely recommend that one.


Tony Moly sells so many awesome products but which is the most popular item and why?

Our number one product is the Intense Care Galactomyces First Essence. It's an anti-wrinkle and whitening treatment booster all in one. It's actually great for all ages because it prevents bad skin and improves your skin while you're young. So it's good for any age demographic.


Intense Care Galactomyces First Essence $56.98

I know you get a lot of foreign customers so what do they tend to purchase from Tony Moly? I personally adore the lip sticks and face masks but what seems to be the most popular items for your foreign customers? Face washes? Make Up? BB Creams?

Foreigners seem to be more drawn to our makeup, nail polishes and eye shadows. So definitely our makeup products are the most popular with our foreign customers.
The fine talented men of JYJ are the current spokes models for Tony Moly. I personally LOVE Junsu and Yoochun. (Oh yeah!) Who's your favorite member?

I like Won Bin. :D


(Sorry no link to buy JYJ :D)

Lastly please tell the readers why they should shop at Tony Moly.

Tony Moly has really good products that I feel everyone will enjoy. There's so much to choose from. Tony Moly is number 1!
