Sephora VIB 20% off haul

I was going to rush and try and do a Sephora 20% off haul, but because I am going through some decisions, and such, I don't think it would be a good idea to do a thorough haul with close up pictures and such since I am going to return a few products here and there.  But the star of the haul has to be the Marc Jacobs eyeshadow palette which costed a lot of pretty pennies, but is really worth it!  I also got the Naked basics 2 and a surprise product which I didn't expect to buy which is the Nars contour blush in Olympia.

I got some products for presents, and the big super star set isn't mine haha.  It is for a friend but I really recommend getting that set if you do have the discount.  There is a full sized smashbox BB cream, Chole roller ball perfume, full sized (i believe) Nars orgasm, full sized urban decay shadow and a full sized Anastasia brow wiz.  I got the brow wiz too, but I came him today and rolled up the product to see how much there was inside the pencil and there IS SO LITTLE!  The pomade, which I got originally only costed $23 while the pencil cost $27... Not please.

Anyways, I will do a full haul when I get all the products sorted out, and see which products I will keep in my collection.

I'd love to hear what you got for the Sephora 20% off sale or the beauty.com 20% sale :).  Leave a comment down below!

First impression: Sally's box Gold snail hydrogel mask and friendly argan hair mask, my very first video too!

 Just recently, Memebox accepted me as one of their influencers.  What that means is that they kind of sponsor me from time to time and send me products to review for them.  This is super excited because this is my first sponsorship, and it really feels good that companies want to work with a mere human like me :3.

So I am doing a first impression on these two Sally's box products, the gold snail hydrogel mask and friendly argan hair mask which was featured in the Rapenzel memebox.  I had to do videos for these two products because it would be kind of hard for me to 

*Disclaimer: They did send this to me for free for reviewing purposes, but please do not confused this and think they send me all the boxes I have unboxed in the past.  I'm not that popular LOL.  Again, mere human....*

P.S.  Coupons will be linked below of this post for Memebox, and links to where you can buy these products.

Favorites and staples:Skincare products

 As a girl that is literally on Youtube watching beauty guru and random weird videos, I always see these well known beauty gurus doing their monthly favorites.  Honestly I really can not relate because there is no way I can like a product that fast in a span of a month.  And every month is usually different.  That tells me a couple of things, they are either getting paid to say it or they just want to keep it fresh and use new products for their viewers. 

I wouldn't say that these are my holy grail products just yet, but I would say they are definitely a staple product in my collection I tend to grab and rely on on a daily basis.  When I do have a holy grail product, they I will do a I FOUND MY HOLY GRAIL GUYS!  But for now, this will be called the favorites and staples.

Quality is not depended on the price tag attached to it.  Most, if not all of these products are very affordable, but two products are not readily accessible to all of us sadly :(.

P.S.  Do you notice the pictures are looking a bit different?  I recently learned to use my DSLR camera and my father gifted me a light box as an early Christmas present!  Seriously, I have the most awesome parents.  I'm glad I invested in a DSLR hehe.  I love you Canon!!

Also for reference, my skin type is...
-dry to normal
-get the rare occasion of pimples
-flakey skin from dry, not severe, just when I use foundation, you can see it clearly

Memebox x pony eyeshadow palette

Memebox X Pony
Recently, about a two months ago, i found out about this korean girl that does beauty videos on youtube under the channel called InsiteTV and her segment is called "Pony's beauty diary".  I instantly fell in love with her videos since she gives out great tips, the quality of the video is crips and clear and her instructions are very useful.  And of course she is talented for sure and very pretty! If you guys use instagram and stalk the #memebox, there are sometimes a crossover of the korean girls korean memebox hashtags, and a lot of use memelovers were getting super jelous that they got to buy this awesome palette.

So now that it is finally here, you might want to look into it because it is a great everyday palette for sure!  There is...

MIA? Where you at gurl?!?

Some of you guys might be like?  Yo... where has this girl gone?  No? LOL  I guess I'm not on your mind :'(.  But if you were, this is why.

My boyfriend was hospitalized for a minor thing and I have been making sure he was okay and such.  Don't worry, nothing life threatening at the moment but if he doesn't change his eating habits and lifestyle, it will be a problem.  He almost had to do surgery but the doctor finalized that he didn't have to.

I did have a video filmed, and the blackhead no more box to unbox and such.  I have plenty to do on this blog, so I'm sorry for the delay.  I do have next week free and such, so I will have plenty of time to upload and play around.

I also will be letting my beauty junkie self let loose because Sephora VIB sale is coming up on November 6, so expect a haul from them too :).  I literally never buy anything from Sephora and wait it out until November hits, and spend the minimum of $350 to get my VIB status.  Yes I'm crazy.

Thank you guys for being patient, and I will be back and get my groove back on.  I love you all for continuing to read my blog, hugs and kisses from Canada.

-Cheers, MMnoob

New: Samantha Schuerman x Memebox

Collaboration Box #8 Memebox X Samantha Schuerman
This new collaboration box just dropped (well couple of hours ago, but I was still sleeping and being lazy in my bed) and it looks pretty good :D.  I'd buy it actually, but still contemplating because I do have tons of make up as is.  O_O

I have seen couple of Samantha's videos because she was in a couple of itsjudytime videos, and I have watched her Memebox unboxings before she did this collaboration box.  So this collaboration to me makes sense :).  I just went to check the vagabonb collaboration box and it was gone :'(.  I was just about to buy it.  Sigh... guess it wasn't meant to be.

You do get 9 products, yes that is no mistake, in this box and I'd say this is a make up heavy box, so it will be great for the holidays!  And its ready to be ship!

Anyways, back to this box, coupons will be included at the end!

P.S.  Memebox, if you want me to make a box too, I would gladly accept ;).  Wink Wink... just saying LOL.

New: Innisfree brand box!!!!

They finally made it happen!!! Innisfree brand box.  This and skinfood box that came out two days ago are the best boxes they have came out with.  I personally have never gotten anything from innisfree, and I know it is a really big brand in korea.  So this is a great way for me to stare exploring their skincare and make up.  I hope we get more skincare then make up though.  But honestly I won't care since I have nothing fro this brand anyways :).  This is a sure buy for me hehe.

Coupons will be included in the bottom.  There is only 3 days left for the $5 coupons, so make sure to use them :D.

New: hot and cool cosmetics, garden of eden, lucky box value set

#78 Hot & Cool Cosmetics#79 Garden of Eden#12~#14

If you don't know already, memebox new releasing days for boxes are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.  So always look for those days to see what new boxes come out.  These came out today and they look pretty cool! I like the garden of Eden theme, hot and cool makes me think of pore tightening products, and lucky box... well I think that is one of the best boxes you can get if you are starting out since you get the best past products for $23 which is amazing value.

As always, coupons will be included at the end.

PS. If you have purchased boxes in the past, check your latest email invoice.  You will find a $5 off $40 unique coupon, which is good if you already have used up the two $5 coupons for the month.

ALL THESE LOTIONS AND POTIONS: Beauty blogger friend, memebox lover, hilarious blogger.....

Since joining into the crazy Memebox craze, I have met some very amazing people that could not have been more of a family to me then them. I met this awesome lady called Kelsey Leigh, whom I found on instagram from just liking each other's memebox pictures.  As time went by, we found out that we actually lived in the same area, only miles away! This world is really small eh? 

 She also recently started her own blog called "all these lotions and potions" and it looks amazing.  Haha I remember when I first created this blog, I had absolutely no idea what i was doing, my internet was slow as fack! and images took literally a whole day to upload.  So ridiculous.  When we finally got a new internet router, images uploaded like the speed of light and I finally regained the strength and motivation to be more active.  My graphic and computer science skills are zero to none, I mean come on! I finally JUST changed my crazy pixelated header to something a bit more decent and I'm surprised I was able to create something not so crappy LOL.  So her blog, to start it off looking so fab, well done girl!

Her writing skills are superb too! Reading her blog post is like reading a novel, although I not really a book worm, I do know what a book looks like.  The formatting, the style, everything screams novel.  Her humor in her blog too... Here are a few quotes from her latest Holy grail beauty must haves...

"The idea that I would apply this and my skin would drop off horror movie style to the floor and I would have no one to blame but myself, stopped me every time I reached for it."

"I told myself You’re married. If your face falls off, guess what? He still has to love you. He took vows and shit. Girl. He has to love you even if you come out looking like Voldemort. Go on. Do it. and so, I did."

Hilarious right?  I know, the quotes are not English quotation approved, but screw it.  This is my blog, I'm going to write and do whatever I want! CUE THE ROCKY ANTHEM~~

Okay I'm all seriousness, really.... You need to check her out!  She only has about 4 blog posts but its been so far, so good.  Show your support and tell her I sent you guys :).


-Cheers, MMnoob 

Unboxing: Memebox special #42 OMG 3

#42 OMG 3
Finally I am finishing off the trio, this is OMG 3 box.  The OMG 2, which I did just recently un-box,  I really liked. This one, I can't say I'm even happy to open it.  Why?  BECAUSE THE MAKEOLLI SOAP SMELLS SO BAD T_T.  I usually have my boxes sitting on the table right next to me, but right now, I have to type and have the box half way across the table, far far far away from me.  I don't know what the smell is, but it smells super strong, super werid, and super garbagey.  Blahh....  I'll get more into detail as I do this unboxing, but damn my nose are struggling.

$29.00 + shipping
 As always, coupons will be included at the end of the post.  Read on to see what I think about this edition's OMG.

New: Memebox x skinfood and thefaceshop? :O


The release of these two boxes yesterday was a lot earier then we all were expecting, about four hours early.  I was super excited that they finally came out with a skinfood box, not super excited about thefaceshop box since we do finally have a physical store where I live. But if you don't, or thefaceshop products are marked up where you live, this is a really great way to get the most out of your bucks for $29 + shipping (both boxes).  I'd say these are both a great buy, but I personally bought Skinfood box since I haven't really expanded into their brand since it is expensive to buy each product one by one.

These boxes have super early shipping date of this upcoming Monday! So if you are sick of waiting so long for boxes, these are really good since they can feed your craving asap :).

Coupons, bundle options will all be included so click read more! :D

Unboxing: Memebox special #43 K-style 3

#43 K-Style 3
To be very  honest, I wouldn't have gotten this box if it didn't come in a bundle with free express upgrade.  But because I worked up a deal and pretty much got one box for free, I don't feel so bad.  And turns out that OMG 3 was the worst box out of the trio.  Kind of upset about OMG since I had high hopes for it, but this box does make up for it.  I usually stay away from the make up boxes, but this box actually turned out to be pretty good! I'm surprised.

$23.00 + shipping

 Coupons will be at the end of the blog post, so please make sure to use it and get yourself some $5 off! Save that money :D.

Unboxing: Superbox #61 My cute wishlist 3

My Cute Wishlist #3 Reorder
After the absolutely amazing my cute wishlist edition one box, I was hooked onto the cute bandwagon.  I didn't get the second edition though since I thought to myself that I already got the first one, so I don't need the second one.  I managed to dodge that bullet and bought the OMG2 2 which turned out to be the better box.  So when they came out with the cute wishlist 3 box, I'm like okay okay, I'll get it.  I absolutely love the graphic art for this box, it is so adorable and eye catching.  good job whoever created this!

$23.00 + shipping
 Let's see what I have to say about this box, and if you have succeeded or failed on making an amazing box revolving around the theme.

As always, there will be coupons at the end of the blog post so stay tuned!

New: My lovely boutique

Memebox just came out with this new box and it is on a discount until Oct. 24 for $21 instead of $23.  So if you want it, you might want to jump on the chance!  There will also be $5 off coupon code, so make sure to use that too.  The description of this box just sounds like another cute wishlist box to me, so if you want to get a slight idea of what the cute wishlist boxes look like, check out my first cute wishlist box which was amazing! 

As always, coupon codes will be at the end of the post :).  Happy shopping.

Unboxing: Memebox superbox #54 Pinkaholic

#54 Pinkaholic

 Yes I know, this is a super late unboxing too, but in my defence I only got this box three days ago since I ordered this box later then everyone.  I broke down and got this box since it featured a cleansing water, and I love my Bioderma Micellar water to bits but I want to try other brands like L'oreal, Garnier.  So when i saw that a Korean brand had a cleansing water, I was completely sold and had to get it for myself.  The other two spoiler was pretty good too, the Awesome glow glow balm and Shara Shara liquid highlighter made this box a very solid, well-rounded box.  I did not get this box right when it came out since I had the impression it would be a all make up box and I really try to stay away from that.  The box turned out one of my top favorite boxes!

$29.00 + shipping

Friendly reminder, if you are new here, coupons are always at the bottom of the blog post.  Please use them :).  $5 off a box makes it worthwhile~.

*NOTE:  If you notice on any order you order through Memebox and when you see your statement, you get a unique $5 off $40 code every statement, and you have I believe two weeks to use it.  So if you guys have used up your $5 off coupon for the month, you can always use those too ;)*

Unboxing: Special # OMG 2

#32 OMG 2

 This box is a month late, well if I counted the date it was "suppose to be" shipped.  It did take 20 days to get to me which is the longest time I have ever waited for my box, and it was finally delivered to me on October 1, but i kind of forgot to do the unoxing for this box.  Then I took the pictures with my new camera, but it wouldn't process, so I got annoyed and then forgot about it some more.

So finally I am doing the unboxing.  This box I was super excited for since it was the second edition of the very hyped up OMG 1 box, but I skipped it and bought the Cute wishlist edition one, which turned out to be the best box out of the trio, so I dodged the bullet on that one.  I'd have to say this is a very good box, and contained quite a few products people were predicting that might end up in the first box but didn't.

$29.00 + shipping
 Coupon code will be included at the end!

Memeshop find:Modeling Take-out Cup Pack, Bounce cheese cream, Revencen shine lip gloss on sale WITH FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE

New: Cleopatra, Wonder women, Empress's secret

#76 The Empress's Secrets#74 Cleopatra#75 Wonder Woman

I know I know, I'm super late on the updates of the newest boxes and there will already be another set coming out tonight.  But in my defense, I was taking loads of pictures for my upcoming FIVE unboxings for you guys to enjoy, so please bare with my slowness. LOL.  Anyways, memebox came up with these three cool new boxes which are very attractive!

The empress's secrets' description reminds me a lot of the oriental medicine box, which you can check out my unboxing for that box here, the cleopatra sounds like it would slightly be like the milk box, which you can also check out here too, and the wonder woman box sounds like a make up heavy box.

So if you are interested, check them out in detail and also make sure to use the coupon codes included at the end of the blog post!
