Memebox Superbox Banila Co. - Unboxing & Review (1)

 

A few months back, Memebox came up with a lot of boxes from really well known Korean brands such as Etude House and Banila Co.  I had picked up a lot of Etude house stuff from a trip to Singapore earlier this year so I gave that one a skip.  I got the Banila Co since I just couldn’t resist experimenting with a well loved brand.

Memebox Superbox Banila Co. - Unboxing & Review (2)

This is a well balanced box – I should be using most of it.

  1. Banila Co. Clean It Zero 100ml + Free Sample Size 7ml. This is a huge tub of make up remover.  It goes on as a sherbet-like balm and transforms into a silky oil that dissolved makeup and sunscreen.  It is made from papaya, acerola and herbal extracts.  The box has a inner lid with a spatula to scoop out the balm.  While the description calls this non greasy, I definitely find it to be pretty oily.  I don’t mind it much in the current, slightly dry weather, but come summer, I’m going to put this away.  It also takes some effort to remove eye make up with this and I find it difficult to keep it from going into my eyes, so this is only for face.
  2. Banila Co. Prime Primer Classic 30ml. A lightweight smoothly applying pore -refiner that enhances the skin’s uneven texture and primes the skin for makeup application.  I haven’t used this yet and may be a bit before I get to it.  I already have 2 open primers currently.
  3. Banila CO. Claypatra Facial Scrub 120ml. Containing 100% natural mud extracted from the mineral rich Dead Sea, the Claypatra Facial Scrub is the perfect peeling scrub for exfoliating away dry patches, dead skin cells and skin impurities.  I have suddenly gotten a lot of peeling scrubs – most from memebox.  I like them and will be using this soon.
  4. Banila Co. Eye Love Gel Liner Natural Black 4g. A black gel eyeliner that is waterproof, non smudging and long-lasting.  I like how a gel liner looks however my eyes have these huge dark circles and I use it only when I have fully covered the dark circles with concealer.  I may not find immediate use for this and would be happy to gift this one too.
  5. Banila Co. Glam Muse Luster Lipstick 3.5gms. A randomly selected shade between pink and red. Why memebox why? I always seem to get the bright red one.  I now have about 4 or 5 red lippies from memebox.  This goes into storage.
  6. Banila Co. Vanila Tint Balm Pink Illusion 5g.  A moisturizing tint balm enriched with vegetable essential oil and Vitamin E Complex.  It is clear in the tub and is supposed to go on with a bit of a tint.  I haven’t used this yet, and may not either.

So as a box this is pretty well balanced, however as you can see, I may not use most of this – so all in all it doesn’t really work for me.

 

Overall Thoughts

I love the makeup remover, will use the primer and peeling scrub.  I won’t be using the make up and will probably hand over the lip tint since I have so many going on right now.  Learning – don’t buy so many memeboxes that you’ll take forever to finish the make up stuff.

Rating 3/5

      You know Nids, they definately tend to have products that make most boxes – and lip stuff is definately high up there. Fortunately for me, I anyway like to experiment with lip colours

    Bought this box, and apart from the gel liner, loving everything else. Every time i try to use a gel liner I end up poking myself in the eye. 😀

      You know Poorna, that was my opinion till I got a bobbi brown gel liner…. Try it, you may be pleasantly surprised
