1) RIMBI Powerful Treatment Essence (Full size. $34.00 for 125ml.): Powerful Treatment Essence functions as a toner and essence, and is enriched with 85 percent galactomyces ferment filtrate– a key ingredient that penetrates deep into the skin to balance skin's renewal process and boost skin's radiance. It is also formulated with nourishing vitamins, amino acids, minerals and organic acids to enhance the efficacy of the complete skincare ritual. With daily application, this essence hydrates, brightens, diminishes the look and size of wrinkles, improves texture and clarity, and contributes to a more beautiful, balanced and glowing complexion. 

How to use: After cleansing, use a cotton pad or your fingers to apply the essence all over your face.

2) W. Lab 3P+Co2 Pore Crown Pack (Deluxe sample): These powerful yet gentle blackhead butterfly patches instantly remove blackheads and unclog pores while tightening and cleansing the pores. Complete with carbonated gel syringe and a butterfly shape mask sheet, this two-step system features optimal pore-purifying benefits for clear, healthy-looking skin. This refreshing, fizzy carbonated formula gets down deep into the pores to remove the deepest, darkest pore-dwellers, and stimulate the skin to exfoliate dead surface skin, and soothing tea tree and green tea soothe the skin. The results? Skin is healthy, glowing, and radiant. 

How to use: Place the mask sheet and place on a hard surface. Inject the contents of the syringe onto the butterfly mask sheet, and spread until evenly distributed. Place the butterfly mask sheet on a freshly cleansed face, and leave it on for 15 minutes. Remove it and rinse the skin with lukewarm water.

3) SECRETKEY Perfume Peeling Body Scrub (Full size $24.00 for 200g.): This gently exfoliating body scrub hydrates skin and locks in moisture in the skin while rubbery peelings form to resurface, enrich and revitalize. Without the use of harsh granules, this formula is enriched with nourishing sweet almond oil, milk proteins, shea butter and walnut powder for an irritation-free skin cleansing. Roll it onto the skin to slough away dead surface skin to reveal radiant skin underneath. 

This body scrub is very effective at removing dead skin cells gently. I applied the non-gritty gel to my hand, and watched as the dead skin began to ball up while I gently massaged it with a light circular motion. It also has a delicious floral scent!

How to use: Use approximately a dime size of scrub and spread it onto your face. Massage in a circular motion. Rinse with lukewarm water.

The dual skincare set uses natural ingredients such as baobab seed and fermented galactomyces filtrate to to deliver...hydration, energy and nutrition to blemished skin, and also forms a protective hydration coat over the skin to keep vital nourishment and moisture in, while keeping environmental toxins out.

How to use: Apply Double Care Fresh Gel (green) to clean face. After complete absorption apply Double Care Ultra Cream (orange) to the entire face. For best results use twice daily. Continued use helps keep skin looking fresh and rested.

MEMEBOX Special #16 OMG Box | Unveiling and Review

Press Sample

The MEMEBOX Special #16 OMG Box ($29.00) offers an interesting assortment of Korean beauty products that are both unusual and intriguing. I have to confess that some of the products initially confounded me because they were so novel and out-of-the-ordinary, but that was precisely the point of the OMG Box!

According to MEMEBOX,

Our O.M.G. Box will literally make you go “Huh?” “Hmmm…Cool!” because we’ve loaded this box up with weirdly awesome, yet effective beauty treasures that will work miracles for your hair, skin and body) If you’re a daring beauty enthusiast or beautyholic who is open to trying bizarre new trends, we dare you to take this beauty challenge!

1) Skinaz Premium Vitablet ($46.00 if purchased separately): You might wonder — what is a Vitablet? Vitablet comes from combining ‘vitamin’ with ‘tablet’ and refers to SKINAZ’s unique tablet-type of vitamin cleanser rich in vitamin C and aroma oil. What’s so special about this is that it even takes care of skincare while cleansing with its skin beneficial formula containing more than 300g of vitamin C which is equivalent to 4.3 whole lemons. It’ll be like having done a nourishing vitamin pack!

Feed your skin a multi-vitamin everyday with these Premium Vitalets! Comprised of 8 fruits – pineapples, oranges, apples, peaches, raspberries, grapes, and strawberries – these facial vitamins will deliver essentials minerals and vitamins deep into the pores, calm and soothe irritated and sensitive skin, deliver intense hydration, and provide excellent anti-inflammatory benefits to the skin. Use it when you wash your face, use it as a vitamin enriched facial mist, or use it as a vitamin bath, these multifunctional vitamins tablets will surely boost your beauty all around.

You simply drop 1 Vitablet into a bowl of water and rinse your face with it, or you can use it to spritz your face. Therefore it is a cleanser and a facial spray that is antioxidant rich.

2) Pure Smile 3 Step Bust Pack (1 Set): This is a quick 3 step process for taking care of your bust, especially recommended to be used before wearing a bikini! The gommage, the hydro-gel pack, and the cream are enriched with various nutritious ingredients for maintaining soft and well-moisturized skin.

First off, remove any dead skin cells with the gommage by massaging it onto your bust. Then, spread on the hydro-gel pack and remove it after 10-15 minutes. (it can be worn inside a shirt.) Finally, apply the cream generously over your bust and massage it in....

Since I haven't try this I can't comment on how well it works or whether or not the results differ from simply exfoliating and moisturizing the skin, but it qualifies as an out-of-the-ordinary product.

3) Elizzavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask ($38.00 if purchased separately): This is the ultimate one-step facial mask with both pore care and cleansing functions. Not only is it packed with green tea extracts, pomegranate extracts, and charcoal extracts, this Clay Mask contains carbonated water which starts to bubble up the very moment it’s applied on your face and deeply penetrates into your pores for getting all the gunk out without having to harden up like average clay masks.

This is an effervescent clay mask that refines pores and draws out impurities, and the bubbling carbonated water tickles while it works its magic. 

4) SKINAZ The Kissable 24H Lip Tattoo ($17.00 if purchased separately): SKINAZ takes lip makeup to a whole new level with its Lip Tattoo! This’ll be the ultimate no-makeup makeup since it actually works like an impermanent color tattoo on your lips and does not smudge or gets erased for 24 hours long. Plus, it comes in five lusciously radiant colors.

Apply a thick coat Lip Tattoo to your lips and wait 10-15 minutes, or until it completely dries. Then simply peel it off of your lips and you will find beautifully colored lips. They suggest applying a lip gloss or a lip balm on top to get the full effect of the lip stain.

5) Hope Girl Night Diva Gloss in Pink Candy 04 ($22.00 if purchased separately): This is a lip gloss with two different shades gradated together in a single product! Despite it being a gloss, the Night Diva Gloss is a non-sticky, smoothly spreading, and highly moist all in one. Also, it carries a built-in LED light and a mirror, so you don’t have to take out your hand mirror or visit the ladies room for a quick touch-up anymore!

Pink Candy is a very nice baby pink lip gloss, and the built-in LED light and mirror are fun additions.

6) Ladyskin Aqua Exfoliator for Body ($14.00 if purchased separately): In Korea, going down to a local public bath for a nice scrub is a very common and popular thing. You can get a quick glimpse into the world of ‘body scrubs/exfoliators’ with this gentle exfoliator from Ladyskin! Enriched with cellulose components from papaya and pineapple extracts, this Aqua Exfoliator for Body removes all bodily dead skill cells and unnecessary impurities without having to scrub down hard enough to stimulate your sensitive skin. All you need to do is spray this product all over your body and softly roll away the dead skin cells, for cleaner, fresher, and smoother body skin!

After taking a shower, towel dry your skin and then spray the Aqua Exfoliator wherever you want to remove dead skin, and then gently massage it until the dead skin cells roll off into your hands. I would suggest either jumping back in the shower to rinse off, or better yet-- doing it before getting into the shower.

Note the two-tone pink shades in Pink Candy
