Unboxing: Mishibox February 2018

MishiBox is a Korean beauty monthly subscription box.


It offers a combination of 4-6 deluxe and full-sized Korean beauty products each month. Subscription is $19.95 per month with free shipping.  They also offer an annual subscription rate of $239.40. This is the easiest and most affordable way to try and test Korean beauty brands.

Each box contains a card describing all the items in the box.  It also gives the instructions on  how to use the products.  This is very helpful since most labels and how to's are written in Korean.



Here's a closer look of the items:



Double & Zero
Double Care Solution Black Mask
Retail: $3 
Full Size

This mask contains bamboo charcoal which absorbs dirt. It also has Bulgarian Rose extract which brightens the skin. 



Petitfee
Dry Essence Foot Mask
Retail: $4
Full Size

This foot mask contains dry essence which is already infused with the cloth - hence no slippery and wet feel during treatment. 



Purito
Cantella Green Level All In One Mild Pad
Travel Size
Value: $1

This on-the-go trial size is perfect for removing remaining make-up that is not removed by cleanser alone. It contains Cantella Asiatica extract which gently exfoliate the skin as well as decrease inflammation.   


Medilab
Black Rose Ampoule
Deluxe Sample Size
Value: $14???
(That is according to Mishibox Product Card)

Contains 64% Damask Rose Water. It brightens, improves and even out the skin's texture. Notable ingredients includes: Rose Oil, Argan Oil and Camelia Oil. 

I tried this ampoule already and it is really good. It is slightly scented.  Unfortunately, the price is a bit steep for me - if a small size like this is already $14 then I wonder how  much a full size would cost? Oh well. 


Beauskin
Crystal Lipstick
Retail: $12
Full Size

Highly pigmented lipstick. It is also very moisturizing on the lips. It did not dry my lips at all. 


Choonee
Water-Peak Moisture Gel
Retail: $12 
Full Size

This is the perfect summer moisturizer because it is not heavy on the skin. It is very refreshing and hydrating without leaving the skin oily. It also contains hyaluronic acid. 

The value of this month's Mishibox is $46 - but the selection is not that amazing. The only thing that I like in the box is the Medilab ampoule and unfortunately it came in a trial size. The masks are ok but the value it pitches in the box doesn't make a dent. I like the lipstick from Beauskin simply because  the color I received suits me (and definitely not red or pink like always). 

What I noticed about Mishibox is that the monthly boxes are either a hit or a miss. It is not consistent in terms of value or curation.
