There seems to be a new subscription box company every time you turn around these days. I’d look over the reviews and just “meh” every one of them. I knew that it would be a waste of money to subscribe because 90% of the things they sent would just collect dust and take up valuable real estate in my makeup drawer. None of them ever appealed to my tastes. That is until now.
I have never gotten so worked up over a beauty box until I caught wind of the Memebox. Memebox is the #1 beauty box in Asia. For those of us with a serious addiction to Korean skincare and makeup, this is the box we’ve been waiting for. It’s also a great way for those of you who are just now discovering Korean beauty to get in on the ground floor with a wide variety of products to try each month for a nominal fee. What I really love about Memebox is it’s full of both high end favourites and little known hidden gems. There is something for the newbs as well as the old pros. And no matter how well versed you are in the Korean beauty scene, you almost always without fail discover something new through Memebox. They’ve done a wonderful job selecting products for each box and I’m always so excited to tear into these gorgeous beauties when they arrive. It’s way better than Christmas, because you never have to worry about this box ever containing socks from your Great Aunt Mildred. You’re pretty much guaranteed to find something you fall in love with each month. Memebox also has an online store, they carry products that are up to 80% off regular retail prices. I’ve also found that they carry things that a lot of other online stores don’t stock.Another plus to this is, it’s not a subscription box. You pay for the individual box you want. So say you want to skip a month, you simply just don’t put in an order for it. The only downside to that is, these boxes are immensely popular and they sell out super fast. So far a total of four boxes have been released and shipped. An additional three boxes were then announced and up for pre-sale. Every single one of the boxes are now sold out and they haven’t even begun shipping yet. So, editions #1-#7 are already gone! They regularly sell out a within a week of being announced! I waited a day too long and I’ve already lost out on box #7. I’m so irrationally upset about it lol. These boxes are highly coveted and people are desperate to get their hands on them. If that doesn’t speak to the quality of the products inside I don’t know what does.Today I’m going to show you a little peek inside the latest release, the 4th edition box.
As you can see upon opening the box there is a little card provided with English descriptions, instructions, and regular retail pricing for each item. Brilliant! Underneath that we get to the goodies, all gorgeously packed up and just waiting to be ripped into. Inside they have deluxe sample sizes along with full sized products.

I honestly love every single thing in here so far. There are some serious winners that I’m loving experimenting with. I was especially happy to see the inclusion of the Iope essence, the oils, and the Clio bb cream. Those are all things I had wanted to get my hands on at some point.

The Memebox retails for $23.99, and unfortunately, like I mentioned before, this particular edition is already sold out completely. (However my dear Beauty Pups, stay tuned because I’m announcing a giveaway for a 4th edition box just for you!)

I WANT EVERYTHING ON YOUR BLOG, COCO. What’s your beauty budget ps? Just kidding (a little bit kidding)!
Oh memebox, how I lust after you as you sell out so incredibly quickly. But then again, I also think its been taken too far. What are they on now, 7? And the super memebox that’s too many boxes in one month. They need to learn how to space them out in my opinion. But I still love then and sign enviously at those who purchase them.
