Isn't this card super cute? :) As you can see in this box we could receive 6 full sized products which memebox valued at $97. Now let’s take a closer look at the goods.


  • Peripera Wholly Deep Jewel Pot #6 Burgundy 3g (29$)
Glam up your eyes with multi-angle jewel glitters that contain real diamond and amethyst powders for extra radiant, sparking holiday season. Fool-proof pearly eye pigments last all day and all night. Channel your inner beauty queen in no time!

My thoughts: I never tried anything from Peripera but I heard it’s pretty good brand. Lately I’m quite into sparkly eye shadows so I am even more happy getting this. I am not sure if the color will fit me though. In one hand it’s really beautiful and unique but at the other hand not really wearable at normal, working days. I think I will end up using it when going to parties and so on :).


What’s great about this product is pigmentation - it’s honestly splendid. Another amazing thing is the ,,moist” factor, thanks to it glitter won’t spill all over the place. Also it’s really important to kip inner lid to prevent pigment from drying. Application is pretty easy (which surprised me a bit) it goes really smooth and staying power is just amazing. Check out the swatch but truth to be told it’s even prettier in real life.


  • Deoproce White Flower B.B. Cream SPF35 PA+++ 30g (12$)
Enriched with a blend of lotus, lily, and peony extracts, Deoproce’s White Flower B.B Cream combines the moisturizing and protective powers of a skincare product with the complexion-perfecting and tone-balancing properties of a foundation. Its featherweight texture smoothly coats over skin with long-lasting adherence, leaving the skin velvety soft and glowing with youthful radiance.

My thoughts: Color was randomly selected from #21 Natural Beige and #23 Sand Beige. I hoped for Natural Beige as I’m rather pale and even some products advertised as #21 can be a bit too dark for me and of course I was so unlucky to receive it in #23 :(.
Formula of this bb cream is quite nice. My skin is dry most of the time so it’s really hard for me to find bb/cc cream or foundation that doesn’t give cacky look and highlights dry patches. After testing some products now I know that I need to use creamy, water based bb creams which are really smooth and easy to blend. This bb cream seems to be like one of those. 


I only swatched it on my hand but I think it will do great job on face too. I think it has rather light coverage (as it has really light formula) but I’m pretty sure you can build coverage on needed parts of your face. I think I would enjoy using this product but as you can see it's way too dark and at the same time impossible for me to wear it.


  • Vivito Painting Jelly Tint RD02 Squeeze Cherry 5.5g (29$)
A moisturizing jelly-type tint with a water gel formula enriched with pomegranate, mulberry, fig and Vitamin E. It smoothly melts onto dry, colorless lips for instant hydration, rejuvenation and long-lasting color radiance.

My thoughts: This tint has really interesting, jelly formula. I really like how it’s performing on my lips: it does stay on pretty long time but also doesn’t dry them up, which is super surprising since every tint I used cracked my lips so bad.


As for the color - I really do like it as I mostly wear red products on my lips. This tint have nice red colour but with warm tones and it's a bit translucent so it's perfect for daily use.


  • Cool Enough Studio The Mirror 1ea (15$)
Still bringing around a big fat mirror? Good Enough Studio present ‘The Mirror’—the thinnest, most stylishly designed mirror for ladies to carry around with them to glamorous holiday and year-end parties in their pretty purses. 

My thoughts: ,,Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?” Well, you wouldn’t be able to hang this mirror on the wall but for sure it’s fancy looking :). I really like the design as I find it really pretty but I don’t think it’s convenient at the same time. I prefer old-school, rounded mirrors to put into my purse so I suppose this thing will end up on my desk or shelf as decoration.


  • Dearberry Rockcat Girl Waterproof Pencil Liner Purple 7g (5$)
Dearberry rockcat girl eyeliner provides budge-resistant radiance in sophisticated deep purple with easy glide, creamy texture. Definitely a must-have for a refined, chic holiday makeup fit for any and all occasions.

My thoughts: I’m so in love in gel eyeliners (I blame you Memebox :)) and lately I’m using them more often than regular eye shadows. They are super practical, you can just draw pretty upper or bottom line or just smudge it on your eyelid. What’s even better is staying power of those things. My eye make-up with normal shadows used to get really nasty after like 4h after application which was pretty sad. Using gel eyeliners I don’t need to worry about that, they will stay till I won’t use cleansing oil to wipe them off. 


I love this particular liner because of its color. It’s just so wonderful with purple sparkles (and purple is my no. 1 colour) and dark-blue undertones - picture doesn't really show how beautiful it is, it was really hard to capture purple glitter in it. Also it’s really wearable for me so cheers. It isn’t as creamy as liners from Clio or Beauty People but I don’t mind it. Because of that blending isn't that easy but on the other hand you can draw more precisely lines with it.


  • Eclipse Poppy Red & Fresh Green 15ml x 2ea (7$)
Go festive with Eclipse’s holiday red and green nail colors—vibrant and long lasting in radiance and easy to apply and quick to dry formula.

My thoughts: I received nail polish from Memebox once before which was by L.vida and I really liked it so I hoped those would be as good. The color selection truly fits the theme but I’m afraid I won’t be using green one really often simply because I don’t like that color very much, at least on my nails. 


The red one though is one of my favorite if it comes to nails and lips so it’s even ^^. On the picture you can see how they present with one layer only. Pretty amazing right? Application is really easy but they are really liquid so you must be careful not to make a mess. These polishes go on really smooth and dry to a shiny finish but I'm not sure how long they will last yet.


Overall: I think this box is one of the best make-up boxes from memebox. I'm really happy receiving eyeshadow and eyeliner, I will never have enough of those and both have gorgeous colours. The bb cream is quite interesting too but it's a bummer that you can receive it in #23. I never liked situations in which you could get randomly selected products from some range - you will most likely end up being disappointed. The nail polishes are ok but I'm just not nail person at all. Only thing I would replace is mirror, simply because I can buy mirror anywhere not like korean products ;).
