It's time to get stuck into May's MISHIBOX goodies.
First up we have a PROUD MARY CEREAL MASK, these masks use plant-based ingredients which help improve your skin. There are 4 different varieties and all 4 having different benefits. The Whitening mask uses Apricot Extract and Niacinamide to brighten skin. The Pore Care mask uses Chestnut Extract to decrease the appearance of pores. The Moisture mask uses Quinoa Extract to moisturise and nourish the skin. Finally the Firming mask uses Red Bean Extract to increase elasticity and protect the skin from pollutants.
How To Use - After cleansing and toning, place the sheet mask onto your face for 15-20 minutes. Pat any remaining essence to improve absorption.
I got the Firming mask, the mask itself smells really nice and even though the mask was saturated in essence, which is something I often dislike about some of the face masks we receive, it didn't drip off the mask at all while I was wearing it. It fit my face shape pretty well and it left my skin feeling soft, smooth and supple, I did notice for a while after removing the mask that my face felt a little tacky and the mask was still saturated with essence once removed, but I still loved the mask.
Retail Price: $3/£2.26
Rate 4.5/5
Next up we have the COSRX CLEAR FIT MASTER PATCH, these patches are hydrocolloid patches that suck out all the gross gunk from pimples and zits. They are designed to be thinner than the COSRX Acne Pimple Master Patches, and they can be worn under make-up.
How To Use - After cleansing and drying the skin, place a patch directly on top of a pimple or zit. Replace patch as needed after it becomes white.
These patches have become my go to method when I have a pimple that I want to get rid of, I often sleep with the patches on and I notice straight away the pimples reducing in appearance and size. I was pleasantly surprised with how well these patches work.
Retail Price: $5/£3.77
Rate 5/5
Next up we have a HALF MOON EYES HOJINE SLEEPING PACK, this sleeping pack contains an abundance of polyphenols from Hojicha (parched green tea leaves) to soothe and moisturise sensitive skin. The sleeping mask also helps improve tour skin's natural barrier.
How To Use - After cleansing and toning at night, apply adequate amount onto your face and neck. Rinse off with warm water next morning.
This mask smells really nice and absorbs really quickly, my skin did look a little greasy after applying and before fully absorbing my skin did feel a little tack but soft as well. After rinsing my face the next morning my skin felt soft and smooth as well as feeling hydrated, moisturised and looking brighter. Sadly there is no way to reseal the pot meaning if you don't use it quickly it would dry out.
Retail Price: $4/£3.01
Rate 4/5
Next up we have the CHARMZONE GINGKO MAKE UP CLEANSING TISSUE, these cleansing tissues contain antioxidant- rich Gingko Extract to cleanse and revitalise skin. The thick, embossed tissues are said to effectively remove make-up, dirt and debris from your skin and gently exfoliate it too.
How To Use - Take one tissue from your skin and gently wipe off make-up and debris from skin.
I'm not really a fan of using wipes and tissues to remove my make-up as my skin always ends up feeling sore and tender from trying to rub off the make-up. While the tissue removed most of my make-up as you can see from the pictures, even my lipstick that is meant to last 12+ hours, it wasn't the best for removing the mascara from my lashes, leaving the areas around my eyes red and feeling a little sore and tender. Sadly I wouldn't say this would be my go to make-up remover but I think I definitely will continue to use when it comes to removing my long lasting lipsticks.
Retail Price: $6/£4.52
Rate 3/5
Lastly we have out spotlight product, SIORIS BRING THE LIGHT INTO YOUR SKIN SERUM, Sioris means "simple and original" and they pride themselves on using clean, fresh ingredients. This serum contains 99% naturally derived ingredients, and 83% organic ingredients. It is a lightweight, fast-absorbing milky fluid that can be used by itself to moisturise skin and great for warmer weather. It contains Organic Green Plum Water, Safflower Oil, Panax Ginseng Callus Culture Extract, and Alpha-Bisabolol to moisturise and brighten skin. It's light citrus scent is blended from Roman Chamomile, Geranium, and Ylang Ylang, and is designed to be non-irritating.
How To Use - After cleansing and toning, spread an adequate amount onto face and neck. Use up to twice a day.
Retail Price: $24/£18.08
Rate 5/5
Now it's time to get down to the business side of the MISHIBOX, it seems that they no longer off different subscription offers as the only one available now on the website is the monthly recurring subscription which is $19.95/£16.33 a month, this does not include the shipping fee which for the UK is $5.95. I pay £20 a month including shipping for my box and I'm sure you can see from the products you get it's really worth the investment even with the extra charges for the box from my bank it's still a worthwhile subscription. You really get more than your moneys worth from the box, these boxes are extremely popular and sell out really fast so if you interested I would suggest being quick to avoid disappoint.
If you have liked what you have seen in this post then head to the MISHIBOX website, and possibly sign up for their amazing subscription box, it's even great as a gift for a beauty enthusiast.
I was pretty pleased with May's box and even though it wasn't top marks for all the products, I'd happily give them another try to see what my second opinion would be. I have to say that my favourites though are the COSRX pimple patches and our spotlight product the Sioris Bring The Light Into Your Skin Serum, I'd definitely recommend them to other people especially people that suffer from pimple break outs.
See you soon!
