MEMEBOX I'm Lip Stick New & Improved Formula Review & Detailed Swatches

Hello! Sorry for not posting anything for almost a whole month.  I was going to blog about my recent makeup buys but then I figured I will just make a favorites post later this month.  Anyways, a few days ago when I was bored and had nothing to do I checked the mail and saw a brown box stuffed inside the mail box.  I was like *gasp* overfilled with joy.  (*＾ワ＾*）

Inside the box was Memebox's new and Improved I'm Lipstick that I was waiting so long for to be launched on the global site!  Yay!  I was about to purchase a few but then they still have soooo many items that are not released on the USA site yet.  I was going to wait a bit... but then once again Memebox surprised me with nine lipsticks. ( >_< )  I <3 Memebox Team.

I'm Lip Stick Description:

"Experience a full blast of color with the new I’m Lipstick series by Memebox. Upgraded with better formulation and a much advanced color technology, I’m Lipstick delivers full color payoff in just one swipe. It possesses a lip-hugging property which allows the color to fully adhere onto the lips for a long-lasting wear. 

• "Phase Inversion Emollient" delivers the most vivid color payoff
• Crease-free, lip-hugging formula with Argan Oil, Rosehip Oil, and Manuka Honey extract"

Fresh out of the box!  Haha.   ( >_< )  So pretty.

MEMEBOX I'm Lip Liquid in 15 Shades Review & Detailed Swatches

Hello!  For the past few days I've been feeling super happy and excited because Memebox recently sent me all 15 of their new I'm Lip Liquid series!  Never in my whole life I thought they'll send me all 15.  I thought they will send the deluxe set of 6 but all 15!?!?  Oh my gosh, you have to be kidding me.  They were sooo pretty that I didn't even touch them.  I sat on my bed staring at them forever.  Haha.  I was feeling so jfkl;ajskfja I thought I could die.

I can't believe it's already been a full year ever since I've been working with Memebox.  /cry.  They're one of the companies that I ALWAYS talk about with friends and family because they are simply awesome.  My sister always says she likes my lip color and I always reply "it's from Memebox." Although their products are priced sort of high, they are always having sales, value sets, and boxes that give amazing deals and steals.  ^o^)/ I'm not saying this just because I'm one of their ambassadors but because I truly do love Memebox.  I visit their website daily to check if there's any updates.  Haha.  Yes, I'm obsessed. :/

Anyways, I've tried lots of products from Memebox's XoMemebox and I'm Meme brand and love all of their lip products so I was pretty excited to try these lip liquids when they arrived.

Ever tried a mousse mask? Too Cool For School EGG MOUSSE Pack Review

Hello!  In my last post, I said I will be posting a review on Too Cool For School's Egg Mousse Pack well, here it is! ^__^  It took longer to post this because I did two photo sessions.  The first group of photos didn't satisfy me enough and were really pixelated.  This time around, the photos turned out A LOT better.  Anyways, enough about the photos and back to this wash off mask that was super fun to try and experiment with.

This is only my second Too Cool For School product I've ever tried from their brand so I'm new to their products and don't really know much about their brand in general but I do see them all over online shopping sites and boy do they have one of the cutest packagings ever!  I did a little bit of research of their brand and so here's a little info if your also unfamiliar with their brand.  

Too Cool For School is a Korean brand targeting young women between ages 16-25 years.  They provide basic makeup that are packaged cutely and decorated with fun designs at somewhat affordable prices.  The brand name is also not what you think it is.  Most people would think the school in "Too Cool For School" is the actual school we go to to study, but it's actually representing a school (group) of fish.  Meaning they're the coolest out of the group, being different and unique.  I read the meaning for their shop being decorated the way it is somewhere online and after reading their description it didn't seem to be that creepy as it was when I first saw images of their shop. :)  They're a pretty cool brand.

I recently JUST found out that they're available on Sephora!  Omg!  Kbeauty is really hitting the states now a days. >_<

One thing I want to know is, why do they have London and New York printed below their brand name when they're a Korean brand?  Maybe it's just this product?  Looking at my other item from Too Cool For School it seems that it's just this particular item that has it.  Or maybe it's their whole egg line that has it?  I don't know because this is only my second/first product from this brand/egg line.

EDIT!:: I've fond my answer!  Too Cool For School was conceived and designed in New York City.  The first artist for collaborative packaging was actually created in London. :)

BERRISOM Oops My Lip Tint Virgin Red & Pure Pink Review

Hello!  I'm very excited to finally introduce you guys to Berrisom's Oops my Lip Tint line! :D  Memebox kindly sent me these items along with Too Cool For School's Egg Mousse Pack, which will be posted later.  I've been wanting to try these product ever since I saw Rainbow's Jisook and Hunyoung tried them out in a video on insiteTV.  Check it out below!

If you don't already know what Berrisom's Oops My Lip Tint are, they are lip tints that you can peel off of your lips!  It leaves a vibrant color that lasts up to 12 hours without smearing of fading.  This lip tint pack is enriched and fortified with premium herbal extracts such as aloe vera left extract, marine collagen, royal extract, hyaluronic acid and honey.

Fast & Easy 5 Minute Cat Eye Makeup Look in Less Than 10 Steps + Mini Circle Lens Review

Hello!  Long time no tutorial!  ^__^  I wanted to do a quick makeup look that you can do in 5 minutes.  I figured everyone has their own makeup base routine and what not so I didn't include that.  Okay, I lied.  Maybe not actually 5 minutes but maybe 10 minutes if you include my skincare process and base makeup. ( >.< )  I went with simple eye makeup that can match any lip color.  Hope you enjoy :)

My SUPER SUPER Mini TheFaceShop "Haul"

Hello and welcome to my super duper extremely small "haul" at TheFaceShop.  This weekend, my family ate out at a Japanese hibachi sushi buffet called Royal in Illinois for an early father's day and for my brother-in-law's and my graduation.  After eating, almost everyone fell into a food coma.  I REALLY wanted to go to h-mart to visit TheFaceShop to get their foot peeling mask.  Got there and it was super expensive!  I did not want to spend $14 for that when it's only $5-6 online with free shipping.  So I decided to walk around the small shop and bought a foam cleaner and eyelid tape because everything there was just seriously overpriced. :(

I thought it was cute how they bagged it in a small "lunch bag" with small tape.



I received 3 foil samples upon my purchase.  I thought she would give me more because I've read reviews on yelp and they've received a decent amount of samples.  :(  I completely forgot to ask them about "checking in".  If you "check in" with them they'll give you a free sheet mask.  I was in such a rush I completely forgot about it until we got onto the highway.  *sigh* so sad....

This was my second time purchasing from that particular shop.  And the service that I got was a lot better than the first time I went.  The lady who helped me was young and we almost had the same makeup!  Haha.  I asked which foam cleanser she recommends for me and she was like "this one is good for you since you have combination to oily skin."  I was like "What!  Is this girl psychic?"  I was surprised that she knew my skin type.  When I was checking out I asked how did she know.  She replied, "I don't know, when I look at a person I just know what skin they have."  Overall, I don't think I'll ever visit the shop again because the prices are too high compared to the original prices in Korea and online.

Fail Red Velvet Ice Cream MakeUp Tutorial + ICK Gaudy Blue & Wig Review

Ah, so full right now.  Just came home from eating Korean food with friends.  I think I'm done with Asian food for a while.  Haha.  Anyways, I'm back with another circle lens review!  Yay!  But this time I decided I should go with something different, so I went with a tutorial!  Haha.  It's not the best, but I tried...  so embarrassing, first time showing my bare eyeballs.  LOL.

While ordering items for my April review I wanted to do a Red Velvet Inspired Makeup look but it kind of failed.  They had every natural makeup with light grey/blue contact lens but I kind of added a bit of red in it too.  I was looking at Joy's makeup by the way.

Pony x MEMEBOX Shine Easy Glam 3 Collection: Blossom Lipsticks & Pink Bloom Eyeshadow Quad Review

Hello!  Guess what.  Pony's third season with Memebox was finally released on their global site last week Friday!  I ordered all four lipsticks (red, burgundy red, pinky-orange, bright pink) and one eyeshadow quad right when I got home.  There is a total of three eyeshadow quads; brown, orange, and pink.  Of course I got the pink quad.  I'm seriously impressed.

Site: https://us.memebox.com/

Who is Pony?  " Korean self-taught MUA and the winner of "2011 Makeup Artist of the Year Award", Pony is one of the hottest beauty icons in the industry. Her passion for beauty is evident on her YouTube channel Pony's Beauty Diary where she delivers the hottest K-Beauty trends. She teamed up with Memebox to design products that are beginner-friendly and can glam you up instantly- Shine, Easy, Glam."  Pony also has her own youtube channel, in which you can subscribe here. ;)  She's seriously one of my favorite Korean icons.

Ah, the packaging is sooo pretty! (  ^ o ^ )/  What I don't like about the packaging is that the top is easily scratched and when you touch it it leaves EVERY SINGLE FINGER PRINT.  It's one of my pet peeves when the packaging it like that.

The box of her products are super cute too!  It's girly and perfect for spring.  I'm surprised that the ingredients are not in English.  Nothing is in English expect for the shadow names and the palette type.  It's not a big deal to me but It maybe to some people.

Stylenanda 3CE Waterful Foundation Nude Beige & Cream Blusher Baby Peach Review

Bonjour mon amies!  ( ^o^ )/  Aujourd'hui est un compte rendu... okay I'll stop.  I took French for two years and I suck so I'll stop.  >.<  (but I hope to continue!)  Anyways, hello.  Today is a review on the long awaited Stylenanda's 3CE Glossing Waterful Foundation in Nude Beige and Cream Blusher in Baby Peach.

If you don't know what 3CE is, you're crazy and not into Korean Cosmetics.  But that's why you have me to explain and get you addicted. :)  HAHAHA.  3CE stands for 3 Concept Eyes and is Stylenanda's cosmetic line.  They started off as a fashion store in Korea and started to expand big time.  They released their cosmetic line in 2009 and it was a PRETTY BIG hit.  Their things are a bit expensive but if you compare it to other brands it's not that bad...? :/

Here's a bit of a description of their 3CE brand:

"3 CONCEPT EYES makes fashionable ladies shine with three kinds of attractive eyes; pink, orange, and beige.  Any one can experience a special make over with the various spectrum of modern colors about creative unique impression."

They do have a site in English! (yay!)  Shipping is $20 and I know I do not want to pay for that.  (-__-)  I could of bought another lipstick from them!  Haha.  But for orders over $100, shipping is only $10 for USA orders (depends on where you live).  I bought these two products from yesstyle but they no longer have these products on their site.  BUT guess what.  One of my favorite sites, Memebox has it on their site ON SALE.  The Waterful Foundation is usually listed $30-40 on other sites but it's on sale for $25!  It's not going to get any cheaper so I highly recommend you get it there.  (Oh my gah, Memebox is killing me.  They released a value set featuring 3CE lip lacquer in Dahlia.  Totally worth it).  They also offer free shipping over $30.

Site:  http://www.stylenandaen.com/

**By the way these products are authentic.  Please be very careful to not buy fakes on ebay or any wholesale sites.  If the price is too good to be true, it's most likely a fake.  Trust me, I bought fake 3CE lip pigments once.  Gosh, I was naive (still kind of am). /sigh.**

Nylon x MEMEBOX - Sweet 16 Eye and Face Palette Review

Hello!  I know it's been a long time since my last Memebox post.  But guess what!  Memebox recently collaborated with Nylon for their 16th anniversary and created a face and eye palette called Sweet 16, #itgirlpalette.  Here's a bit of a description of the palette:

"#ItGirlPalette is NYLON’s special gift to its readers in celebration of their 16th anniversary. All colors were carefully picked by NYLON’s senior beauty editors with a strong emphasis on versatility and uniqueness. Each color packs a punch so you can amp up the night with just one shade, or blend your favorites to create a custom look! This palette is a must-have for all gals that are edgy, trend-setting, and f***ing awesome. Cruelty Free."

Site: https://us.memebox.com/

 It's Spring break and I was not expecting a package expect for my monthly Uniqso order.  My mom came home and grabbed the mail on her way in.  There was a package for me!  It was from Memebox and so I was like huh?  I didn't order anything.  Turns out they sent me their new palette with Nylon to review.  They also sent cute little samples.

I received three samples of Skin79 bb creams.  I own three of them and they aren't my favorite.  I think my favorite would be the gold and orange bb creams.  I also have the hot pink one and I seriously do not know why it was such a big hit back in the days.  Anyways...on to the palette.

All ingredients are listed on the back of the box.

SOOTHINGSISTA X MEMEBOX Eyeshadow Quad #EYELOVE SF palette Review

Hello you!  Guess what.  I was so close to getting this palette.  I was going to use the rest of my points to get this palette free but then I heard that Memebox was going to release Soyoung's I Wish Lovely make up line soon so I ended up getting that instead.  You can read my review on her line here.  I absolutely recommend it! ^__^

I was lucky enough to receive Soothingsista's palette to review.  I have Urban Dekay's Naked 3 and was hesitant to get it because the colors are also pink toned so I thought there wasn't a need to get it.  Alright, I'll typing and get to the palette. :)  Although this review is sponsored, everything is and will always be my honest opinion.

SoYoung I Wish Lovely x Memebox Make Up Line Review - Perfect Travel size products

Hello friends!  Guess what! I finally got it!  YES!  About a month ago Soyoung and three other Korean beauty guru youtubers collaborated with Memebox.  I love Soyoung and have been watching her videos ever since the first three months she started to upload youtube videos.  It's so awesome how far she's gotten.  So proud of her.  Anyways, she came out with six products with Memebox.  Three eye shadow sticks, two lip & cheek products, and a concealer.  I was about to buy all six items but I was ONE dollar short to be able to buy it!!!   Argg, so I ended up not buying the concealer.  :(  Don't you hate that feeling or situation?  Haha.

Okay, let's get into the products. ^o^)/   *sorry for some/all pixelated images.  My photoshop is stupid.  Need to look up how to stop making it so darn pixellated. :/ *

Memebox Step By Step Skin Care Review & Unboxing

Hello there!  Long time no post! :)  This month has been super busy for me.  I should of never taken AP Photography.  There's a whole bunch of assignments and on top of that, I had a lots of tests to study for.  Arg, last year of high school is stressful.

Anyways, today I will be reviewing the Step By Step Skincare box from Memebox.  I found this box really helpful because the information card lists the items from the first step to the last step of skincare.  When I first got into skincare I would apply anything in any order.  *sigh*  Wished I knew the order of skincare earlier.  Haha.  Don't know the order of skincare?  Keep reading! ^o^ )/

I-Codi 48 Sliver Grey Lens Review

^^  My failed make up look. *sigh* -__-  ^^

Hello there!  I'm super happy that Uniqso is adding more and more circle lens to their site.  Recently they added a new brand called i-codi with their colors of the wind series.  Their are 50 colors and they're all very gorgeous looking on the model.  I just hope they look just as good or better in person since they photoshopped the lens on top of her eyes.  Anyways, I picked the color in 48 Sliver Gray.  I was totally sold when I saw it on the model.

PONY X MEMEBOX Shine Easy Glam 2 Palette and Meme I'm Series - Eyeliner, Blush, and Lip Crayon Review

Finally, I bought Pony's Shine Easy Glam palette number 2!  I wanted to use my points which did not get transferred until 2 weeks later, due to the busy holidays.  I ordered Pony's XO Starter Kit (includes Pony palette 2, I'm blush, eyeliner, lip crayon and eyeshadow brush) and Meme Hydrogel Mask Box (includes 5pcs) on Jan. 4th and received it three days later.  I seriously love their USA shop's fast shipping.  The starter kit is $35 and the masks are on sale for $10.  My total was $45 but only paid $22 using my points and a discount code.  Oh yes, if you're a US resident, spend $30 or more on their USA shop to get FREE SHIPPING!  :D

I guess I'll start off with Meme Hydrogel Masks.  I was sent one of these masks from Memebox a while back and I pretty much feel in love with them.  It made me skin look super glowy and healthy.  Overall a very nice complexion.  Plus it made my face super smooth.  Hydrogel masks are pretty expensive and are usually $5 up per mask, but Memebox's masks are only $3!  A box includes 5 sheets for $15 but they're on sale for $10 making it $2 per mask.  I also like the high quality mask.  It has 3 layers to make sure everything gets absorbed.  I don't think I'll ever go back to using those cheap cotton masks.

Ah, doesn't the colors look pretty?  I don't like that two of the eyeshadows are larger than the rest.
