Memebox Yoghurt Superbox review, unboxing

I love yoghurt, and buttermilk. As a baby, I would spit up milk so much so my paediatrician recommended yoghurt and buttermilk two or three times a day, apart from one solitary bottle of milk. I took to the idea and continue to stick to yoghurt and buttermilk, except for one milky cuppa in the morning, though I love the dairy smell. A dollop of plain yoghurt mixed with chopped parsley, a pinch of salt and pepper, a couple of sultanas and half a sauteed onion over a piece of cucumber is a rather unusual combination, but a favourite snack with me. Love it!
No way was I going to pass on a yoghurt-special Memebox! I have heard of its use as a beauty aid but have never personally applied it to my face simply because it does not last long enough uneaten. Because yoghurt is supposed to have astringent properties, I was expecting a toner in this box and thought I would have to sell or swap it, since I do not use toners. I did expect a yoghurt face mask and some moisturising cream. Let's see if my expectations were justified!

Read on for my review and unboxing of the Yoghurt Special Memebox.

The contents of the Yoghurt Special Memebox are:

1. Happy Bath Facial Yoghurt Cleansing Foam 120ml
2. Ettang Modelling Take-Out Cup Pack 17g
3. Pure Smile Yoghurt Mask x 2
4. Purederm Skin Softening Yoghurt mask 150ml
5. Rappol Calming Cream 150g
6. Holika Holika I want Chu Lip Balm x 2

Six products, all of which are full-sized, and two are "sets" of two. A quick look at each.

Happy Bath Facial Yoghurt Cleansing Foam 120ml

Face cleansers are products I am always running out of. This came in four varieties - gentle, moist, silky and firm. I've got moist. It contains apple, banana and apricot seed extracts. I have not opened the tube yet, so I have no idea what it smells like, but I have a feeling it smells great! Definitely going into my cleansing cabinet.

Ettang Modelling Take-Out Cup Pack 17g

A modelling pack is a rubber-like face mask which soothes, moisturises and firms the skin. Apparently there is enough in this container for one use, though I bet it stretches to two - at least! You pour water to fill half the cup, mix the powder well and spread it over the face, wait for 15 minutes and peel off the rubbery mask. Half a cup is definitely good for two uses!

Pure Smile Yoghurt Mask x 2

This contains extracts of kiwi, pineapple and banana. I am glad they sent out two. I use up sheet masks sooner than I get them. I will be trying one of these out this weekend.

Purederm Skin Softening Yoghurt mask 150ml

We have seen a similar Purederm mask in the Whole Grain box v1, unboxed here. I wasn't a fan of that mask but hope this one performs better. The product card says this is meant to deliver deep hydration to dry, coarse and tired skin - mine is oily, acne-prone and sensitive, so I might think twice and present this to my Mum, who celebrates her birthday on the 27th of this month.

Rappol Calming Cream 150g

This brand was founded by a couple who wanted a gentle product range for their baby, who had sensitive skin and a host of allergies. It contains lactic acid and is meant to speed up skin repair and soothe allergy-prone skin. I have a host of face creams waiting to be opened, and this one joins the queue.

Holika Holika I want Chu Lip Balm x 2

I love these super-cute lip balms already. One is strawberry while the other is yoghurt. While certainly not as moisturising as Yes To Carrots, Baby Lips, EOS or Nivea, they are nice to put above matte lipsticks to prevent drying out. Apparently, you use them together for a great scent - you use one balm and have your significant other use the second one, and snog! It doesn't say what happens if said SO is not interested in trying out Korean beauty products, even if he tends to turn a blind eye to certain people's mad buying sprees. I will keep both myself and use them above matte lippies, as I said.

Summary, deals and code

I love this box more than the Milk box! Possibly my second-favourite so far, after the Cacao box, reviewed here. Everything can be used and there are no toners! This box was just $23 but is now sold out. However, they do have restocks every now and then, so do keep a lookout here on Memebox.
Get the new Cleanse and Tone box here. It is just $20 if you buy before Sunday, just like the new Oh My Lips box here. You also have a Pouch Essentials box here. Buy all three boxes here and pay just one postage - click the picture below and save more! You can check out all Global boxes on sale here and all Superboxes here and the Memeshop here. Other value sets are here, so you can combine boxes to save postage. Use code B0EB for $5 off.
