Review: Meme Box ScentBox #5 Tropical Fruits





Boutique Bebe Coconut Pack 100g
FULL SIZE
$20

Made from extra virgin coconut oil. This is a soap like facial pack for deep cleansing, treating pores and improving skin elasticity and firmness. At first glance, I thought this was just another piece of soap, but with the added benefits and the current hype for coconut oil/water... I'm on board. Whatever it takes to get rid of my enlarged pores. I would usually deter people from using a bar of soap to cleanse their face due to hygiene reasons... but I'll turn a blind eye this time. 


Evas Vitamin Body Wash 200ml
FULL SIZE
$6

I received my wash in strawberry. From the product card, I don't think this body wash has any "special powers".
 

Konad Niju Mango Moisture Hand Cream 60ml
FULL SIZE
$6

Contains organic argan oil, shea butter, olive oil and vitamin E. I'm always using hand creams, no complaints here.
 

LadyKin Twinklight Soft Foam Cleansing Kiwi 100ml
FULL SIZE
$10

This product claims to cleanse, nourish and purify. Infused with natural fruit extracts it will remove makeup without irritating your skin.  This is perfect for me, I only ever use makeup remover for waterproof makeup and I'd wash everything else off with my cleanser (is that bad?). 

Konad Scented Polish 10ml
FULL SIZE
$6

Mine is in Pineapple. Pineapples are the new Owls this season, hipsters are loving it. We saw several girls walking around the CBD with pineapples on their shirts. Anywho, I uncapped the nail polish and took a deep breath trying to get a whiff of the pineapple scent. Unfortunately all I smelt was nail lacquer. I referred back to the information card and realised that it'll smell fruity once it dries - lasts for 7 days. I'll get back to you with this one. I never thought I'd like yellow nail polish, but this colour is quite subtle and wearable, it's a keeper. 


Overall, I thought this was a nice box with a 5 full size products. However, I feel like this box is designed for teens? Does anyone else feel this way just by looking at the overall content of this box? The one thing that stood out for me was the coconut bar and the scented nail polish (not that I always smell my nails).

*This box was sent to me for consideration. All opinions are my own.

  4. I can imagine this box to smell amazing when you open it, but yes, I feel like this is more of a budget friendly box and there's something about the colour scheme of the products that make it look that way...? The coconut pack looks interesting, and the body wash looks exactly like the vitamin water drinks lol
    Are the hand cream and the nail polish both by the same Konad that does the nail stamps?? Never knew they did handcreams!

  6. For the price these scent boxes are a good way to try Memebox out on a budget, they were only selling for $15 each but none of the options interested me enough.. if they had done a coconut scent box I would have been all over that!

  8. Ohhh I can't wait for the points from the giveaway to be transferred to my account, so I can start picking out a box of my own!

    I never knew Konad did cosmetics! I quite like the Pineapple shade - not sure about it smelling pineapple though. I remember when Revlon (was it Revlon?) came out with scented nail polishes and I was just like, '...Why?'. Nail polishes generally stink already, why add something artificial to mask that? It'll just make matters worse! Ahhh rant of the day over.

    1. Still not received? hmmm I'll email Memebox to follow up! LOL at your rant, haha. I hate the smell of nail polish. My parents won't allow me to apply the polish indoor. I'm holding out for the day they make a scentless polish.
