Memebox Special #28 All About Eyes is a curated box which hosts a range of eye treatments and eye make up which will make your eyes bigger, brighter, and glamorous. This box includes the perfect selection to achieve either a subtle natural look or a flattering bold look. There’s also a selection of eye treatments to pamper those tired, dull looking eyes. Memebox have definitely covered all areas with this edition.
I’m a big fan of eye products especially eye make up as I mainly focus on my eyes when applying make-up. Ridiculously excited I grabbed this box as soon as it hit the website. Not knowing what to expect this curated box delivered a box full of surprises and definitely exceeded my expectations.
Memebox is a rapidly-growing, leading e-commerce beauty retailer born in Seoul, currently headquartered in San Francisco, California and provide Korean Beauty Boxes.
They offer a huge range of different themed beauty boxes which caters for everyone’s needs and likes and the good news is they ship to the UK and other parts of the world for only $6.99. These are not monthly subscription boxes and are available to buy as one off’s. They sell out very quickly so you do need to be supersonic. The contents within these boxes are a complete surprise and only one item spoiler gets released prior to shipping which is an aspect I like about Memebox.
This box includes 8 full sized products and showcases a great line up of products.
1. YniPicture-Esque 3 dots eyeliner – Full Size RRP £5.48
This revolutionary eyeliner pen is certainly different, it has a three end-brush applicator which is something I haven’t seen before.
Offering deep definition the wonderful black formula dries quickly and is waterproof which can be easily removed with warm water.
The unique applicator takes a while to get use to but you simply dot the applicator along your lashes and complete the rest of the line with all three of the brush tips. The liner is really creamy and glides on smoothly without the dragging the skin. It’s also great for applying under the lash line too.
2. Karadium Line Hero Auto Gel Liner – Full Size RRP £7.31
There were two colours available in this liner a brown and a white. I typically received the white gel liner which contains subtle gold and silver pearls and is entirely waterproof.
I tend to stick to classic shades mainly blacks and browns and will probably gift this to a friend.
3. Cheek Room Curl and Volume Mascara – Full Size RRP £10.97
I love Mascara and whilst I own many I only have a hand full which stand out.
The Cheek Room mascara is waterproof that dramatically volumizes the lashes and uses a micro-dispersion system that doesn’t smudge or budge. It also contains Lilly-extracts which protects the lashes keeping them healthy and strong.
Surprisingly this did stay put all day without flaking or smudging and for a waterproof mascara it comes off pretty easily and effortlessly. Whilst this didn’t make my lashes overly voluptuous it’s great for every day wear for a more natural look.
4. Cheek Room Eye Shadow – Full Size 5g RRP £4.87
The Cheek Room Eye Shadow is a pearl rich formula which contains minerals and coral powder.
I received the shade pink coral which is a vibrant pigmented colour. I’m not brave enough to experiment with bold shades and tend to stick to more classic colours. I would of much preferred the Sweet Pink which was also available.
5. Secret Star Girl S-Style Eyelashes – Full Size Pack RRP £4.26
Bold eye make up teamed with false lashes definitely completes the final touches to a make up look and I was delighted to see a pack containing two sets.
Out of the three types of lashes I received The Cutie eyelashes which focuses on more definition and volume. I prefer long lashes as opposed to more volume and these are quite whispy and the length is perfect. Inside the box is also two tubes of adhesive.
6. MDaida Wonder Eye Volume Filler – Full Size RRP £25.00
Despite all of the wonderful make up discoveries within the box this Wonder Eye Volume Filler excites me the most. The outer casing has the most luxurious feel to it and the applicator has a soft sponge tip which is perfect for targeting under the area eye area.
The Wonder Eye Volume Filler is a highly enriched serum for under the eye area and works to both brighten and to treat fine lines. The formula is free from parabens, mineral oil, artificial colouring and is fragrance free.
I love the refreshing and silky feel of this serum and the results were noticeable on the first application. The area under my eyes looked brighter and as for me I looked more wide awake!
7. MDaida Wonder Eye Concealer Pen – Full Size RRP £20.73
This concealer certainly has the same look and feel as the YSL Touche Eclat Pen only it’s silver and not gold and comes in the form of a concealer rather than a highlighter.
Another item which I got excited about which is from the same brand as the Volume Filler and comes recommended by make up artists in Korea.
This multi-purpose concealer can be used under the eye area to hide dark circles and can also be used over blemishes and skin imperfections. The shade is perfect for my skin tone and the creamy formula blends in very well and looks very natural when applied. This pen is perfect for on the go touch ups.
8. Sally’s Box Friendly Collagen Eye Patch – Full Size RRP £1.21
The description of this product made me chuckle as it states the pack is a set of two which in my interpretation means two applications. It contains two eye patches for one application only!
These collagen eye patches are a hydro-gel type patch that deliver rich moisture and nutrition to dry, sensitive areas underneath the eye. The collagen formula works to tighten up sagging skin and whilst on soothes, cools and replenishes.
Will be giving these a go over the weekend.
