My first great investment in Korean skincare products was the SKINvincible Vault Box from Memebox. There was a sale for this vault on Black Friday. The original price of this box was $298, but it was reduced to $150. I watched videos on YouTube of this vault and many others, however, I decided to choose this one because I understood that it was the one that better suited my necessities. The vault included sixteen full-size products, all of them with great reviews. After I ordered the vault, I waited patiently for the package to arrive. I checked my email every day hoping to find the shipping information, but every day I found nothing. After a long period of time, three weeks more or less, my package finally arrived. I can’t explain the excitement I felt when I opened the box to find Memebox signature pink confetti. I started to dig into the box until I finally found the first item, the J. One Hana Cream. I opened the cream to find cute little white pearls of moisturizer inside, I was so simple and yet so interesting, but I couldn’t stop there. I keep digging and find more little wonders until I got to the last product, the Neogen Code 9 Lemon Green Caviar Essence & Tox Tightening Pack. I decided to open the lid of the container to touch with my fingers the exfoliating part of the pads. It didn’t impress me and it was kinda disappointing because I had high hopes for this product. However, after I tried the product, everything changed. The exfoliating part of the pad was incredible, it was gentle on the skin and I felt how the pad got all those dead skin cells. After exfoliating, I proceeded to use the other side of the pad, which had the purpose of massaging the essence into the skin. When I finished, my skin felt soft and moisturize. This product is currently one of my holy grails and I can’t get enough of it. I learned my lesson, to never judge a book by it’s cover. 9

My first experience with the Korean 10-step skincare routine was very confusing, I didn’t understand why there were so many products involved. I googled photos of Korean skincare products expecting to see one product per photo, like everything else in google, but instead I found myself seeing pictures with 10 items in a single image. I’m not going to lie; I didn’t have any idea of what half of those items were. I used to think that a daily skin care routine consisted in cleansing and applying moisturizer and nothing more. I was still confused with the idea of so many products on my skin, so I decided to look on Youtube. My first Korean skin care product review was a video of the Youtuber Fei, from her channel heyitsfeiii. After I watched the first video, I couldn’t stop. I think I watched half of her Korean skin care products reviews videos in just one day. I noticed she keep mentioning a name in almost all her videos… Memebox? I had no idea what she meant with that name, so I decided to just ignore it. However, one day out of nowhere I decided to search the name in google, what I found was a Korean skincare paradise. I’ve hit the jackpot, I found a web page that sells Korean skincare products at the lowest prices. I read more about Memebox and found that they have been in the market for a decent amount of time, so I thought I should give it a try. They were having a sale on sheet masks, so I said to myself: What the heck! Let’s try them. I was patient and waited for my package to arrive at the Post Office. After I pick it up, I decided to try one the same day. The first sheet mask I ever tried in my life was the Banobagi Vita Genic Relaxing Jelly Mask. There are no words to describe how soothing the mask felt on my skin. I quickly went to the Memebox page and started looking at the other products reviews. After reading dozens of reviews I realized how important all the products in the 10-step Korean skincare routine were, so I made a blind investment. On Black Friday I bought the SKINvincible Vault Box from Memebox, which was $150 and the #sheetfaced for 100 days Vault Box, which was $80. I have to admit, it was a hard hit for my bank account, but sometimes you have to throw yourself to new adventures and never look back. The SKINvincible Vault Box was huge and the #sheetfaced for 100 days Vault Box was both huge and heavy. First, I opened the SKINvincible Vault Box and I can’t describe the excitement I felt when I saw all those little wonders in the package. I started to take the products out one by one and to open each one along the way. Next, I opened the #sheetfaced for 100 days Vault Box. There were masks from different sizes and colors. I couldn’t believe the number of masks I was getting for such a “low” price. First thoughts? This is the best investment I’ve ever made in my life. I’m currently using most of the products I ordered in the Vaults and I’m happy to say that they have not disappointed me. After a month or so of using these products, my skin feels healthy, soft and smooth. I’m still exploring the 10-step Korean skincare routine, but I will continue to use more of these products and hopefully build a skin care routine that suits my skin. Tell me about your first experience with Korean Skincare products. Comment below! I think this kit is excellent to try new products. All the samples in this kit have a high rating (4.5 stars an up), but just because a product is high rated it doesn't mean that it will be good for all types of skin. Contents: (Samples)
