The Superbox #45 Pinkaholic Memebox has arrived and as promised features an all things pink line up from skincare products to make up. Inside the box showcases a great balance of wonderful new discoveries and certainly satisfies my obsession when it involves the colour pink!

 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 is all things pink from the feminine packaging to the pink charming potions and pink hued make-up shades within. The box contains 6 full sized items and features skincare and make up products.

1. Style Y Glossy Pit Crayon Lipstick – Full Size RRP £6.80

I was happy to see a pink lip product inside the box as I’ve been wishing for anything lip related in the shade pink for months!

The Style Y lip crayon provides a smooth textured glossy application which is moisturising giving a radiant pop of colour.

I received the shade Strawberry Tea which is a bright pink and was secretly hoping it wasn’t as bright when applied. Disappointingly it was way too vibrant for me!

2. Style Y Color Fit Bling Bling Auto Crayon Shadow – Full Size RRP £5.57

The Style Y Bling Bling Auto Crayon eye shadow comes in a pretty iridescent subtle pink shade with hints of sparkle.

The eye shadow is easy to blend with either a brush or your fingers giving a smooth lasting finish.

I love the colour which is very wearable and due to its sparkle would certainly be more suited to glam up your evening make-up look.

3. Shara Shara Aurora Liquid Highlighter – Full Size 9g RRP £4.95

This liquid highlighter which is subtly pink hued, creates a natural radiant dewy glow to illuminate your best features and brighten up your complexion.

Whilst the texture is very pliable, it’s quite shimmery and wouldn’t be suitable for during the day. I will give this another go when I’m off out in the evening.

4. Insobeau Perfect Deep Clean Cleansing Water – Full Size 200ml RRP £13.61

This pink cleansing water not only cleanses and removes make-up but also moisturises your skin without having to reach out for multiple products.

This all-in-one potion is enriched with orange peel, lemon balm and various vitamins and smells utterly delicious.

I’m trying to use only the minimum on my face at the moment and surprisingly this works incredibly well removing my eye make-up.

5. Secret Key Color Recipe The Pink Cream – Full Size 55g RRP £21.00

The Pink Cream which is literally pink inside and out, specifically targets signs of fine wrinkles and lines and works to tighten and lift dry sagging skin on the face.

The gel-like consistency feels really refreshing and soothing on the skin but unfortunately it’s not for my skin type which makes me sad as it smells lovely and feels very comfortable on the skin.

6. Awesome Awesome Glow Glow Balm – Full Size 45g RRP £21.65

The Glow Glow Balm is an ultra-hydrating and soothing balm which is pink and has a the same texture as Vaseline.

It contains skin loving ingredients such as argan oil, macadamia oil and olive oil to deliver hydration whenever your skin is in need of a moisture surge.

This multi-purpose balm can be used with your moisturiser to balance moisture levels and to give a healthy glow or alternatively can also be used as a lip balm, hand cream or as a highlighter.

I am relieved that this balm can be used on other areas and isn’t just limited for the face especially if like me you have oily or combination skin.

My Verdict

I am really happy with this Memebox which has been inspired by the colour pink. Inside the box showcases a great balance of wonderful new discoveries and certainly satisfies my obsession when it involves the colour pink! Memebox were also spot on when making the selections for this box which consists of 6 full sized products.

The contents within this box is worth £73.58 and the cost of the box including shipping works out to be around £18.29. It’s a small price to pay to discover these hidden gems. There’s no silly little samples in this box!

The box itself came well packaged in a robust padded envelope and I can confirm that no custom charges were incurred.

What makes Memebox very different is the variety and choice of beauty boxes which they offer their customers as a one off purchase. They release a huge amount of boxes throughout the year and will simply leave you spoilt for choice. They don’t release any spoilers prior to shipping so it’s a complete surprise when you receive it.

The information about the products and how to apply them is in English on a card enclosed inside of the box so you won’t be lost in translation.

Memebox enables me to discover Korean beauty products which are not available here in the UK and their boxes definitely give you an opportunity to try out the latest beauty trends in Korea .
