BEAUTY BOX UNBOXING: Memebox Superbox #4 - The Etude House Box!


Good morning lovies. Hope all is well on your side. Mine is going ssllooww. I've been slacking on posting again. I've got so much to do, but I always manage. :)

I got two Memeboxes in the mail yesterday. One being the 8th Edition of Memebox, & this one, Superbox #4, The Etude House Box.

Let's take a closer look at the products.
I wasn't really sure what to expect when I received this box. I love Etude House a lot, but for some reason, I had higher hopes for this box.


Etude House Look at My Eyes Jewel - PPK005 Gorgeous Brown Ring





If I was able to choose which one I wanted, this might have been in my top picks, but not my top pick. It doesn't come off very brown on my swatch, but it's a very pretty color overall. I can see myself using this on days when I don't want to wear much makeup. The shadow was super smooth, too, so I think it'll be easy to blend this out.

Etude House Dear Darling Tint AD - Real Red






Gradient


All Over

Wasn't there some kind of hype over this tint? Because it's not my favorite AT ALL. Don't get me wrong, the color is super pretty & the tint really tints... the smell is sweet, which I don't mind. However, the jelly like texture & the taste of this is a super HUGE turn off for me & if you don't watch out, this WILL get on your teeth, so I highly recommend brushing your teeth before applying this. I HATE the taste of this. It's so sour. I have a tendency to lick my lips at times & this lip tint just doesn't do it for me.

Etude House Silk Double Care Hair Mask





This product came at a wonderful time since I'm needing to condition my hair. I think the whole 2 part process is nifty, especially the enclosed hair cap to keep the oil in your hair. I plan to use this tonight & see how well it work. My only concern is that it's an oil. Hopefully it only makes my hair look better instead of a grease pit.

Etude House Play Nail - #114 Prom Queen




I'm happy to have gotten the pink version of this. A glitter-bombed, baby pink nail polish. The only downside to this polish, for me, is that I have acrylic nails & getting glitter off of acrylic nails is a B***H! I'd be better off using this on my toes. I bet this will look super cute for the spring & summer months. 


Etude House Secret Beam Highlighter AD - Pink & White Mix





Just a basic highlighter. Nothing really special about it. I literally just bought one from Holika Holika with the same color combination. The more the merrier.

Etude House Goodbye Pore Ever Pore Primer Essence







I'm not sure how I feel about this. I don't really feel these pore primers work that well to conceal pores, especially if you have sebaceous filaments, this does nothing to conceal them. I also don't have deep, set in pores. This might just work as a regular primer instead of "pore primer".

Etude House Like 20 All Day Cream Pact - Early Anti-Aging Care







I find this compact to me the most interesting thing in this box. I suffer with random spots of dry skin every day, especially if I improperly moisturize or forget to do something. It feels like a solid oil. It comes with two puffs & a spatula that I think is unnecessary. You could use your finger & it's be easier to apply since it melts, but for those of you who like cleanliness, you'll want to use the enclosed puffs. I'm currently carrying this with me to properly test it out.

Overall, I think this box was okay. I expected a little more out of an Etude House box, but I'm definitely not complaining. I can see myself using most, if not all, of these products in some type of way. Leave me a comment on your thoughts of this box down below.

Hope you've enjoyed this unboxing. I also have Memebox 8th Edition to unbox, so I'll be posting that within the next few days.

Have a wonderful day.
[ PSSST, it's almost FRIDAY! ]

    1. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR. I normally associate Etude House being pink & girly. You're probably right. They would have wowed me more if they would have added newer products like the Like 20 pact. I'll be making a full review on that pact! Thanks for reading doll! xoxo <3

  5. Hi there! ^^
    I'm hoping to see the reviews of that mask, I'm planning to buy it, so your information will be useful.

    really the taste of Dear darling tint is sour? I've buyed that same tint in 2012 and the smell and taste was my favourite, like strawberries. Maybe they changed some things uhm...

    1. Hello Evelyn! I'll definitely post a mini-review on the mask. I didn't take enough pictures of it, so in advance, I'm sorry! >.<

      The Dear Darling tint has a really bitter/sour taste to me. I don't know, it might be old? I just know I won't be using it as often as some of the other tints I've gotten.

      Thanks for reading! <3

  6. Memebox sounds so nice! I read many bloggers who order this box too. I think the etude house box is awesome all the products sound good except the primer. I think the taste of the liptint is bareable for me :3 Thanks for the short reviews of each product! :3

    1. Thanks for the feedback Mindy.

      I really like Memebox.. but only some of the times. I'd rather them be a monthly subscription than a box you have to hurry to buy before the boxes sell out.

      Those pore primers are okay to me. They aren't all that.

      Thanks for reading! <3

  8. So is the like 20 pact similar to a facial balm?
    It is a very interesting concept!

    1. I'm not really sure. It seems more oily than a balm would be and it barely does anything for my skin except maybe make my skin look a little less dry. I think the puff that comes with it soaks up a lot of the product. Thanks for reading xoxo <3
