Unboxing: Memebox colorbox #1 Red reveal

Today I had an awesome start :). I checked my memebox tracking number to see when my package would come and it said it will come July 2 since it is Canada day July 1.  So I was like, sigh...okay. I can wait :).  BUT! My doorbell rang at 12:30pm today and I was like HUH? I look out the fish eye in the front door and...ITS THE MAIL MAN~ YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.................

So long story short, here is my 2+1 colorbox bundle I bought two or three months back. I only paid $15 for all the boxes, well plus shipping but that is so cheap! My luck caught me that day since memebox gave everyone 15 memepoints and I of course had to use it before it expire!  The original price for the bundle was $30 + shipping, each boxes was $15 each if you bought it separately.  If you want to check out the bundle, click here.  They are sadly not for sale but they might either make a edition 2 or restock them in the future so it is worth a shot clicking.

 Let's get started! Red box here we goooo~~~

The raw look of my package freshly opened.
 Here's a closer look.
 As always, here is the product card, in English of course :D.


All the product out of its box.  Looks so much fuller keke.
 The first product is Dearberry Flirt lipstick in the color 08 Red parade, retailing for $12 each and contains 3.4 g.  This is a full sized product.

Product description:
"A lipstick made from naturally derived ingredients-olive oil, cocoa butter, and cupuacu seed butter- this buttery smooth lipstick will melt onto your lips, flushing it with red vividness!"

How to use:
"Twist out the lipstick and apply it smoothly along your lip contour."

 I absolutely love this color!  I have about three four reds in my collection, but I don't have such a vibrant, true red.  The lipstick formula is love too! It is just like my bite beauty lipsticks but even more pigmented and just as hydrating and it is cheaper too! WHOO. I think I found my new love :).
 Here is a swatch on my NC25 skintone.
Swatch on my lips.  It's so pretty :D.
 The second product is yet another Dearberry product, called Today nail laquer in the color #21 Pink sprinkling retailing $3 each and contains 10 mL.  This is a full sized product.

Product description:
Today Nail Laquer series offer over 40 different nail colors and provide a wide color spectrum for picking the right shade for each day's mood!  This fun nail laquer applies onto your nails very thinly yet vividly with just one touch."

How to use:
"Carefully and thinly apply the nail laquer using the nail brush."

In person this color isn't super primary red.  This is leaning more to more pastel-ish cherry red which is nice. But I can only wear nail polish on my toe nails, and I don't think anyone wants to see my toes HAHA.
 The third product is L'ocean eye shadow in the color L-35 red, retailing $10 each and contains 4 g.  This is a full sized product.

Product description:
"L'ocean's eye shadows come in various trendy colors, all of which are velvety smooth, long-lasting and extremely vivid in color.  They are specifically designed to compliment different colors of outfits and skin types." 

How to use:
"Apply the eyeshadow according to your eye make up routine."
 I have a lot of eyeshadows in my collection, but not a pure red one.  This is super cool, but I am going to see how I can work with it or else I will look like I have pink eye or a bruised eye HAHA.  That's not cute.
These colors, just like the description, is super velvety, not chalky and so pigmentation it is crazy! This is just one light swatch.  I love it so far!
 The fourth product is a product I am already familiar and love.  I bought the Makeon eyeliner set on ebay and am lovin' it.  Click out my review of the set here.

This is Tosowoong Makeon gel pencil liner in the color 04 Burgundy retailing for $10 each and contains 1.2 g.  This is a full sized product.

Product description:
Highlight your eyes with a sexy burgundy eye liner for featuring a sophisticaed, vampy look.  The gel texture will allow it to glide on easily along your upper and lower eye contours.

How to use:
Draw in your upper line first, making sure to fill in between your lashes.  Then, draw along your lower eye contour and slightly smear it for a natural blend.

 I was actually expecting a bright red color, but they actually sent us a dark burgundy color which is a nice surprise.  The color is leaning more to a dark brown shade with a hint of purple red.  I will be trying this on my eyes and my lips :).
 Here is a swatch on the back of my NC25 skintone hand.
 The last product is Cheek room two color lip gloss in the color #6 Red which retails for $12 each and is a full sized product.  This is so interesting and reminds me of a lip gloss that MAC had as limited edition and was three colors.  What a fun idea!

Product description:
"Highly enriched with grape seed oil, Cheek Room's popular Two color lip gloss will not only moisturize chapped lips but also deliver a long-lasting glossy finish to your lips.  In addition, this special lip gloss is actually consisted of two different colors within a single product so you can create different color variations according to your mood and style."

How to use:
"Apply the lip gloss smoothly over your lips.  If you want a deeper red lip color, mostly use the top layer and if you want a more natural mix, use both layers together."


This comes with just a regular doe foot applicator.
The color is anice baby pink when mixed together.  It only looks nice on the back of my hand since my lips are super pigmented.  Sometimes I wish my lips weren't so pigmented but there are ways around it :).

Overall I would say This is my favorite box by far.  This box contains five products while the other two contains four products.  If I bought this box for $15, I would be satisfied.

Total box value:
1) Dearberry Flirt lipstick $12
2) Dearberry Today Nail laquer $3
3) L'ocean eye shadow $10
4) Tosowoong Gel pencil liner $10
5) Cheek room Two color lip gloss $12
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Total: $47.00

For value, this is not bad at all.  And plus I love to experiment with new make up products anyways.
