january first edition mask genie 5 mask pouch subscription,

mask genie is a monthly mask subscription, 
mask genie set out to provide a selection of masks from all around Asia at an affordable price packed into a pouch and sent to your letterbox.
there are two types 
a pouch of 5 masks -$12.00
or a pouch of 10 for $22.00
shipping to the UK took 4 days so as usual very fast.
to order check out the Facebook page,-https://www.facebook.com/MaskGenie?
payment is done through paypal.

all the masks are from Asia not the cheap masks found and made in china ,
genie has road tested all the masks that appear in the the pouches herself and can be found on the page and on her website.
for the first month i decided to get the 5 pouch as i have a few to use up and from February I'm back on the full sized one.

in future months genie is looking at adding a different mask in ,so look out for a nail mask, or feet mask,or feet peeling mask, hair mask, 


so here is the pouch.




PETIT FEE 98%COLLAGEN +CO HYDROGEL MASK,
these eye patches are of a silicone material.they are shaped as lying and yang or a tear drop.and they stick under the eye to plump up and firm laughter lines ,and wrinkles,
they come in a round plastic dish which helps to hold them as you peel off the sticker.
the mask is rather sticky and place under the eye they sit there for 30 minutes ,with ingredients such as collagen flower extracts.
these ingredients push deep down into the skin.

i really liked the eye masks one of better sets I've used before.they are very sticky and stuck to my skin like glue.my puffy eyes had gone down  a lot ,and the skin felt a lot firmer afterwards.




my puffy eyes had gone down after wearing these masks.


DERMAL SYN-AKE COLLAGEN ESSENCE MASK,
the mask is a thick cotton mask ,it has good amount essence  and no too much, i like that this has eye flaps in that you can wear it with the flaps over your eyes for total resting and treatment or open and carry on with other things.
this mask is fine on most skin types  and you leave it on for 30 minutes.
its a gentle mask in that it gives a slight firm skin result, 
 syn-ake is similar to snake venom,and it also has added vitamin E.

i liked the mask but i didn't find it as beneficial in moisturising ,hydrating and firming as my general masks, i think this is the basic mask of my 5 pouch, it didn't wow me ,but its not bad.
the actual mask didn't fit well and kept moving down my face.


this mask kept moving down my face while wearing 

E.G.F/COLLAGEN MASK,
this is a cute packaged pig mask.
the mask is aimed at pore tightening,
the mask has collagen which helps to moisturise and feed the skin,gives elasticity and leaves vibrant skin,

this is a good mask works great on drier skin, my skin and neck felt really hydrated even the following morning.
left on for 20-30 minutes ,liked this mask ,there was enough essence for massaging into the face and neck and bust area afterwards,




ETUDE HOUSE GREEN TEA NOSE PACK,
these are little patches that fit over the nose ,can be stuck on to the chin and also forehead for  stubborn blackheads,
they are a paper patch that re infused with green tea extract  and additives ,these help to pull out all excess oils and bring the blackheads up to the surface and onto the patch,
to use simply wet the nose peel off the paper backing and stick to the nose ,basically once the part patch is bone dry then its time to remove ,

this smells really strong of green tea ,it stuck on well and hurt a bit when trying to peel off my nose,but my nose was a lot cleaner and clearer ,i do like this brand and we use them weekly,





MEDIHEAL MOGONGTOX SODA BUBBLE MASK.
OK so this is not a full face mask like you usually buy,this is a half mask,designed for the bottom half of the face and nose,its a black sheet mask,on opening this is a folded up mask,open it up and place on to the face ,as soon as you apply to the skin it will start bubbling up, leave on for 10-15 minutes the sheet will give bubbles double the size.remove the mask and wash the face,

i saved the best mask till last.
this mask is so fun to use and wear.i liked how the mask covered and worked on my trouble areas,my face feels cleaner and tighter ,it did need moisturiser on as it felt like my skin was screaming out for moisturiser an hour afterwards,
but i really liked using this mask and will be buying more of these.


on first applying to the skin,


5 minutes on the skin,

after 10 minutes and still bubbling,


so here is my first month of the new mask genie pouch and yes I'm happy with this subscription, i liked that we get to try out good quality masks, different masks, and also different kinds of sheet masks, i know they have been sourced from proper factories and the overall price of the pouch is great value as that included shipping, 
i look for ward to February's larger pouch,from now on, 
also each month we get to vote on one product to go in the following months pouch again,
i hope its the mediheal soda bubble mask,
if your interested in face masks take a look at the link above  and buy a monthly pouch to try out,
this is good value as sheets masks are not easy to come by still in the UK,
i will be back soon with the next pouch to review and show you.

detox and renew by memebox,






so I'm slowly getting through the end of all my memeboxes arriving and trying out,,only 3 more to come,which is kind of really sad, 
this box was released for sale last month, and some of the products were up for spoilers after i had bought,
the box can be found here with others WEBSITE BOX PAGE
or click and go through my banner,

about the box,with the cold weather now here the skipper routine can be lazy and short ,but with the hot and cold weather it means a build up of dead skin cells,this box helps to get rid of skin toxins,dead skin,blocked pores,
all the products in this box are a one stop action busting skin product.
all products are full sized in this box,


MY BOX


UN BOXED,



MENU CARD.




GU:AAM METHOD BLACK PEARL PROTEIN (CONCHIOLIN)35 WHITENING SERUM,60ML.
a light weight serum,great for skin renewal and has bifida,aha,black pearl protein.helps to get cell renewal going.black pearl eliminate toxins and skin cells,
it results in skin clearing and a brighter firmer skin,free from added colours ,fragrances and oils ,
you add to the skin after cleansing  taking care to add all round the tone.

this is a quick sinking in serum, it soaks into he skin and is non oily, my skin sucked it all in and was great to use at night time,
the texture is of a normal serum a clear liquid not too runny so easy to pat over the skin.




YADAH ANTI TROUBLE BUBBLE CLEANSER,150ML.
this is a foaming cleanser that delivers a gentle acne medication on to the skin.
with salicylic acid and herbal extracts  it soothe the skin  and hydrates leaving the skin to breathe,the point of the micro bubbles lift and unblock the pores and remove excess oil,this is the one step acne buster.

my son is loving this cleanser ,it clears his skin right up and removes excess oils,
i love the feel of this bubble cream ,it bubbles and pops and aerates and massaged over the skin it feels lovely and creamy, 




MAYN BIO MINERALTOX MIST 100ML.
skin looking dull ,tired,lifeless, this mist refreshes  and helps to detoxify ,it refreshes the skin ,with refreshing ingredients of lemon balm,apple mint,royal jelly,the secret beads  are made with ions and mineral water.
my skin felt bright and cleaned and gives the skin the refreshed  look.
to use you need to shake the bottle so the ion balls rub each other and seep into liquid.
 I'm really liking this and the scent is great to use on cold skin after being outside ,it gives that instant burst of moisture to the skin.
a normal mist that sticks to the face but leaves a non sticky texture once dried.




ARAON DETOX SKIN ESSENCE,100ML.
a skin essence blends naturally to detox the skin.it gives a textured look evens out the complexion.
with maple water, green tea extract.it helps to renew the skin cells,
it leaves the skin plumped up.
use after cleansing and massage in,
the texture is  of a really sticky water ,way to thin as it runs everywhere on your hand.
I've not had much luck with the product its not hydrating the skin so i will try it once the weather warms up again and road test it then, it works OK on my sons skin but that is a slightly oily teenage one.



ESTHETIC HOUSE  VITAMIN 3000 VITAMIN B VITA -CAPSULE CREAM 30ML.
 this cream is used for dark spots and blemishes and any other problems you have,the cream is to aid skin renewing.and sooth irritated and sore skin.
you can add to your normal moisturiser and use as a multi purpose product as well.
i liked the cream and i been using on a few dark spots i have ,i use the cream morning and night and like the texture to the cream, like a gel solid cream is spreads over well.




this way one of the best boxes we have had curated in a long while,
i love using all the products in this box bar the araon essence, but will try it again once the warmer weather arrives.
i like the mist but i do love using mists as general.
the aesthetic house cream is a good cream and will be using this tube up.
the bubble cleanser has been a hit in the house as it has been fun to use but has really helped clean the skin up.
the GU:AAM serum is nice i love using it t night time,



if you live globally please read this ,
now for the bad news ,
as of  FEBRUARY 10TH 2015, memebox will longer ship international ,sad times after nearly 280 boxes ,
they will only ship to USA,china and Korea from there on, you can still buy boxes up to this date and they will ship to you but the option to buy outside these countries after will be no more, sad times.
