3B Box Review (September 2016)

This is my first 3B box. I’m a huge fan of asian skincare and beauty products so was very excited to try this box.

I love that they included a handwritten personal note in the box. 

Etude House Honey Cera Cream is a thick moisturizing cream. I use plenty of moisturizer in my routine so I’m definitely going to be trying this out.

Size: 0.33 fl. oz./10ml Value: $4

Etude House Honey Cera Priming Eye Serum 

I use an eye serum in my routine but I can’t actually tell if it’s making a difference. They generally take a long time for me to use up since you apply so little every day. Maybe I’ll see a difference with this one :P

Size: 0.16 fl. oz/5ml Value: $5.4

Heimish All Clean Balm

A solid cleanser that turns into oil once you put it on your skin. I used to use an RMK cleanser that was like this and I loved that one. Definitely excited to try this. The 3B card recommends that you use a foam cleanser after using this.

Size: ??? (Not on package) Value: ???

Skin79 Super Beblesh Balm  Triple Functions

Whitening, SPF30 PA++, and anti-wrinkle - this is why I love asian beauty products. Some times I use BB creams as foundation (if it’s thick enough and the color matches), or just as a primer so I’ll definitely be testing this one out.

Size: 7g Value: $1.39

Welcos Kwailnara Aloe Vera MOISTURE REAL Soothing Gel

I could always use more moisturizer (especially after coming back from burning man). This is a full sized item.

Size: 150g Value: $4.62

The box cost $12 per month and this month’s value is $21+. I’m very happy with the items since they’re all things I would use!

Vellabox - The Lucerna Box (June 2016)

This is my first Vellabox delivery (I ordered one last month but it got lost in my building’s mail room).

The box is pretty small and opened to a lovely cloth wrapped parcel inside with a note. There was also a small moisturizer sample but I didn’t see it until I went to throw away the box (I saved it but didn’t take photos).

The parcel was tied with a piece of twine.

The candle itself was pretty small but it smelled amazing! I wouldn’t have known it was grapefruit scented without the label. The scent reminded me a lot of Produce Candle’s rhubarb candle.

The card that came in the box described both the candle and the sample for this month’s box. I’m not sure what I’ll do with the fabric...

I’m a fan of this month’s scent and am curious if the candle really burns for 28 hours. I tend to burn through larger candles faster than that.
