special 59, scrub box2.

another instalment of the scrub box got released so i jumped aboard as the original box was a good box.
the scrub 2 is a little different,
polish and resurface that dead skin away.buff and scrub and soak it all away while feeding the skin with nutrients,vitamins,and anti oxidants.,so this contains totally different products for different areas compared to box 1,

BEAUTY FIRM RUBBING JELLY SCRUB,

this is a jelly in a tube you then apply to the skin through the silicone brush on the end,i really like the ides of these brush products having had cleansers in previous boxes, 
they are so easy to use and no mess or faffing around,you simply squeeze the scrub out into the brush and scrub or massage over heels and elbows ,the argan oil and apricot  seeds  and pantheon polish through the dry dead skin,and smooth and buff leaving you with softer ,brighter skin,




dung,FAMILY PEELING GEL,
a face peeling gel with aloe Vera and grapefruit,centella asiatica ,chamomile,you simply add it to your face and rub all over ,as you rub and roll the gel over the skin it lifts up all dirt and grime and blackheads to clean,brighten the complexion.




PURE SMILE JEWELRY SCRUB IN AMETHYST,
i had one of these in a previous box and wasn't sure about it ,until i actually used it.
this is a body scrub  used on wet skin it really smooths the skin with help from the black sugar,Shea butter ,jojoba ,glycerin, amethyst powder,a really good daily use body scrub.



PRO YOU S SPECIAL E/B CREAMY PEEL,
this was the product i was looking forward to trying out,
its a gommage and these are so cool ,an exfoliator the strips away dead skin cells blackheads and excess oils,this creamy lather lifts everything up to the surface while massaging and cleaning the skin,once washed off the skin looks and feels cleaner.



TONY MOLY GOLD BLACK SUGAR MASK.
this is another product i have wanted to try out to compare brands.
a face exfoliator with black sugar,gold,honey,used once a weeknights the skins complexion back to fresh new and glowing from dull,drab and old, massage into the face and rinse ofter 15 minutes.



PURE PLUS +SKIN FREYIA FOOT PEELING 
who does not like foot peeling masks,
simply pop the mask over the feet and let the skin soak in the gel for an hour and half ,then wash the feet with soap, after 4 days or so the skin will peel from feet  and after a week you should have lovely clean soft new feet, removes dry skin and calluses,



MY THOUGHTS on this box is not as good as scrub 1 ,but it does have some different products the only product I'm not into from this box is the ddung peeling gel, i really liked the foot peeling mask, the apricot beauty firm jelly scrub,and the creamy pro you s special face peel,the black sugar scrub is a nice treatment if your in the mood for a relaxing bath and pamper session, overall it was a nice box and a few things i really like using,

oil therapy by memebox,


I'm back with a different box from Korean company memebox, this is the oil therapy box,
so when this arrived there was one thing i thought why isn't there a ?in this box ,i think everyone was expecting it to be in an oil therapy box ,and i think this is where memebox loses the plot a little with not adding the most basic product ,yes  A OIL CLEANSER,
so the box is curated with rich oils to soothe and relax you,this box aids anti again and beauty restoring,the oils will help nourish the skin and repair dry damaged skin.hair,body and nails,

MENU INFO CARD,



HOLIKA HOLIKA PIG NOSE CLEAR BLACKHEAD DEEP CLEANSING OIL BALM.
this is one of the brands must have products,this is a cleansing balm  that melts in to an oil that helps dissolve blackheads ,excess oil,and gunk from the skin.
a non greasy ,non drying formula rinse off after use.
with pink clay extracts and lemon pick up the dirt and and aloe vera to soothe. 
my son has been using this for a week and its so easy to use ,yes even for him.the nose area is for sure clearing up and the skin on the face is not so oily ,


PRO YOU EUCALYPTUS,
this is an oil and will do us great for facial steams  to clear blocked noses or sinuses,or in the bath,,


CHEEK ROOM,LIP AND EYE MAKEUP REMOVER.
A moisturising make up remover  this removes waterproof make up ,a gentle formula good on all skin types .
 this doesn't seem to like my skin,it felt like it had a barrier left on the skin after use, so i won't be keeping this,


MIGABEE VERBENA OIL SERUM,
an oil serum for face and neck,verbena oil,is great for brightening the skin,hydrates ,and feeds the skin,i love this brand and the product seems to work for me which is odd as i don't get on with serums or ampoule's,this is great for softening the fine lines and wrinkles, and the skin is kept moisturised ,this is nice added  to face cream for an extra punch that keeps working all day long.


BOBBISH LUMINOUS BODY AND FACE MIST,
a great fine mist that gives a fine mist. using over the skin once out of the bath or shower this lays over the skin and easily moisturises quickly without being too greasy.


PRO YOU AROMA VITA OIL,
an oil is enriched with jojoba oil,camellia oil,smells nice great on the face or the body. it softens the skin lovely, i have been using this in the bath water.and it sinks in to my skin so well like this,i have no need for moisturiser afterwards.


overall I'm surprised not to see the oil cleanser in this box as such, I'm not keen on the make up remover and I'm still up and down over 2 body oil type oils ,the mist and the vita oil.so to me half the box was really good but half was not to sure why it was in there other than fill a box, i think its usable but this is not the great box it could and should of been.

the box is great for memebox beauty junkies. so go on and indulge yourself.

MY BOX,



UN BOXED,



MENU /INFO CARDS.



SHARA SHARA  ACEROLA MOIST OIL BALM.
this is a balm in a tin, good for dry bits of skin,or soreness, instantly wipe the balm over ,this balm is enriched with macadamia seed oil,horseradish seed oil,aloe Vera,peach extracts,aerial extracts.
MY THOUGHTS.- another balm i like the tins, these are universal for the skin,lips,eyes,hair smells good.you always have a use for balm.



SHARA SHARA,ONLY YOU NECKLACE LIP BALM IN JUICY PEACH.
infused with sweet peach,with a coral tint.this is the bling bling necklace for your neckline,
MY THOUGHTS- this is such A cute necklace and the balm is nice ,very creamy,lightly tinted,and a gentle peach scent ,



SHARA SHARA,NATURAL SHINING BB SPF36 CREAM.
a BB cream with micro pearl powders ,diamond powders,amethyst  powders,helps protect from sun rays and UV rays, gives the skin a natural coverage,.
MY THOUGHTS- this is too dark for my skin but it goes on even, smooths over well no streaking.i find the diamond and pearl powders are good for whitening and brightening,covers any blemishes and fine lines you may have,



ETUDE HOUSE MY CASTLE HAND CREAM,IN ICE FROZEN.
OH how cute are these hand creams,we get a full sized castle all to ourselves,
this cream is packed with centella asiatica,aloe Vera,lemon verbena,marshmallow roots,chamomile,they are light weight,
MY THOUGHTS- this is the ice castle, the cream has a gentle blue tint to it, is fairly faint in floral, a thin cream that is fast absorbing,with Shea butter and lavender,its rather too thin for my liking for a hand cream ,i like to feel it really leave good moisture and making my skin soft, this dries quickly.



TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL DINOPLATZ CINEMA CITY.
this is a CC cream,will help brighten your skin,
MY THOUGHTS- i already had this from another box, and i love this product, it not too runny and it smooths over the skin like a dream,it makes a great base for make up,covers all lines and blemishes.it really likes my skin and i really love this brand,


THE YEON JEJU HALLABONG ENERGY PACK,
this is a set of 4 mask packs,each is for a different problem.
the 2 live packs give jeju energy deep into the skin,
the pore ghassoul pack treats late pores and helps control excess sebum,
the peeling gel exfoliates away the dead skin for a smoother skin.
MY THOUGHTS -  what a great combo pack,each pack is good for each stage the live pack dried and cooled the skin.and tightened the skin,it felt weird,then the pore pack sort of felt everything was sucking up and out into the pack from the skin, then the peeling gel stripped the dead skin off and left me with cleaner ,brighter ,plumper skin.



so this box was a good box the accrual balm is handy to carry around is multi functional,the necklace is packed away as a Xmas gift for someone. 
the share share BB cream i won't use ,the etude hand cream is going to be my last hand cream before bed one,i love the CC cream from too cool for school, and I've enjoyed the yeon face packs,

MY BOX



UN BOXED,


MENU /INFO CARDS.



LADYKIN MANGCHEE LIFTING MASK.
the mangchee  lifting cream is more a thick gel cream helps moisturise and restores hydration back into the skin,helps dull and damaged skin.
this is loaded with Shea butter ,mango,cheese, on opening and while wearing all you can smell is the gorgeous mango.this also has  natural witch hazel and camellia sinesis leaf water.to help with pore troubles.
i applied it over my skin it felt cooling on application and smelt so god damn mango good.and went to sleep ,
SO MY THOUGHTS ARE  i liked this cream ,it doesn't need rinsing off it simply sinks into the skin, the skin felt soft and plumped up, i liked how moisturised my skin was ,the smell was amazing,mango ,i liked the cooling effect.and the way my skin tightened like when a clay mask is worn.




LADYKIN MANGCHEE REPLENISHING HAND CREAM.
the anti wrinkle function hand cream.
has quark  cheese extracts.leaf extracts,,apparently Cleopatra used the leaf extracts in her beauty regime,it adds adenosine for the anti wrinkle ingredients into it.the idea is it forms a barrier for lasting skin protection.this cream smells yummy again with the added mango extracts.for clearer skin,Camellia sinesis leaf water for vitamins and polyphenol for hydration.
SO MY THOUGHTS ARE.this is a really thick moisturising cream ,one of the better ones from a memebox and is like my favourite locating ,its rich and creamy, sinks in well no greasy after effects.the smell again is lovely and not synthetic at all.




BLANC DOUX PINOT NOIR UV SHIELD AND TONE UP SENSITIVE.
so this is a specially formulated sunscreen with antioxidants from red wine.
a mild sunblock with a medium UV/uvb  protection.it helps replenish  and brighten the skin,
SO MY THOUGHTS.i like that its a gentle sunblock ideal for winter and i can mix my CC  and BB cream in with it.


ENPRANI DEAR BY ENPRANI BOUNCE CHEESE CREAM.
i flipping love this stuff,love it,
this cream is so good softening for the skin,the cheese bounce cream is awesome and if you put between your fingers it goes stringy like mozzarella.protein rich in whey ,its loaded with vitamin ,A,B,E.honey proteins.i love using this for daytime use. this is a cult memebox product.a great oozing gooey cream that sinks and moisturises my skin so well.
(yes i have issues this is half my stash).


INNISFREE WINE PEELING JELLY SOFTENER.
INNISFREE CULT PRODUCT.
this is a peeling liquid that you put on the face and as you roll it over the skin it picks up all the dirt and dead skin while you gentle massage the skin at the same time. this has infusions of  chateau  Margaux.the queen of all wines. a gentle but all round exfoliator is not harsh on the skin,
SO MY THOUGHTS,it goes over the skin lovely and massages in well, it does roll the dirt and grime out of the skin,once rinsed off it leaves the skin smooth and clean, to then use a toner and cream afterwards. a lovely little product.


TONY MOLY I'M REAL RED WINE MASK SHEET PORE CARE X2.
we got these 2 sheet masks, not gonna complain. these are enriched with rich red wine complex,evens out oil balance and skin texture. its a free from product so no pasties in it.
SO MY THOUGHTS . me and the son used this sheet masks as i got 2 boxes, we loved wearing them ,it felt like i was good for the skin, my teenage son suffers with oily t zone and it cleared it up well , so a yes from us.


so i loved these boxes ,a great range of products.and will be all used and loved playing around with them, there is always certain boxes hat make me haul from memebox and i knew when it came out before spoilers it was a haul box..this box was going to be epic hence why i got 3 separate boxes and 1 bundle, 

but this box has turned in to epic for the wrong reasons.
the push back of shipping dates has caused so much trouble amongst the memebox community ,after shipping 4 days later we received an email to say that out of the 500 boxes ordered  only 200 were sent with the innisfree product. if you were like me ordered in the first 10 minutes of it going on VIP i understand totally why you are so upset with memebox over the whole thing,yes my boxes sent bar 1, i have 3 boxes and awaiting now one more box that has been pushed back to December ,and will no longer be sent with the innisfree product, annoyed yes but i feel worse for people who only ordered 1 box and not got sent out,how can a company mess up so much, we paid for express to be sent out fast and first ,these are cancelled ,and of course some people who ordered standard  boxes on the first day not through later restocks have had there boxes not sent ,how is that fair, surely first come first served, but NO  ,i have arranged with a girl in the UK to have one of my innisfree bottles as its so unfair ,she ordered first few hours and now is caught in this mess,
it doesn't wash that innisfree never sent enough either, and if the product is no longer included but excuse me memebox but why is it being held up for another 2 weeks before shipping ,the option was keep the box or cancel, well i feel the box should be shipped now regardless.

my little cosy box from my little box uk.



its November and that means its winter and Christmas is coming. 
also means another addition of the great box my little box UK is coming, this month the box is called 
                       my little cosy box.

so its cosy November 
the magazine is full of interviews ,recipe and other good readable information,

MY BOX



MY LITTLE WORLD MAGAZINE.



the quote card,
i CAN relate to this a lot,


the hot water bottle 
this just jumps out at you when you open the box up, its bright red and white and it simply pops into the microwave for 30 seconds, and i is so good on my aching tired joints, and i get warmed up quickly after walking home in the rain we have in the UK at the moment.if you have no microwave just use it as a cushion.


espresso mug,
so dinky cute, i always need to have a full cup of tea in the morning but want that extra little cup o coffee as i head out the door, this is the cup for me to use now.excellent and the writing on it is just so charming.



Arcancil star liner waterproof pencil.
this is in jet black and it rely does have grey pigment, the liner is long lasting and doesn't rub the skin, looks great,


my little beauty volumising mascara.
a generous sized mascara that has a great useful sized wand, it goes on so easy and there is no smudging or clumping.lasted all night .with jojoba oils and beeswax,and sesame seed oils,


Essie mini nail polish in cute as a button,
a good all year round colour, a rosy pinky and goes with most things ,it needs to coats and it has a few days wear and tear on it.





another good box and it is the only box i keep a running subscription for as all my others are from America i do like how this box brand works and love that the idea they have is a different theme each month,this is a lifestyle box i really love,and will continue to keep going. roll on December's box.
