OYATSU BOX FEBRUARY.

its that time again and my first snack box of the month has landed in the UK,
the oyatsu box is based in japan  and started up last year after the staff at the oyatsu cafe decided to it was time to send some fun tot he rest of the world.
oyatsu box can be found here.WEBSITE.
each box contains over a pound of candy,snacks,Japanese  merch.
there are 2 types of box to subscribe too-
the full sized box 8-14 products for $25.00
the junior box 2-3 products for $7.99


MY BOX.

UNBOXED,

POCKY DEMITASSE.
a brand new flavour of pocky for 2015,this small box has cocoa sticks covered with dark rich luxury  chocolate.
these are limited edition and only available for a limited time in premium places.

these are quite strong and very rich in taste ,i like the texture and they still have that moreish biscuit love.

KABAYA PANDA COOKIES,
cue cute mini panda biscuits, crispy biscuits with a chocolate cream topping,kept fresh in a foil bag .
each biscuit has a different panda expression.


these never lasted long ,tasty panda cookies ,buttery and sweet with a chocolate  covering.

MEIGUM RAMUNE.
meigum is the Japanese leader of soft candy,
these are chewy sweet  bars ,with the iconic ramune soda flavours.

these are soft gummy bars that are so sweet but have the best flavours ,i love ramune soda,

NINJA MESHI. MOUNTAIN GRAPE 
so we got a packet of ninja food ,ninja meshi is cool packaged candy,the ninja wears a suit and a tie ,Japanese call this salary man,
these candy are soft and chewy with a great grape flavour,

so these are like a flat jelly bean with a harder shell ,inside is a chewy softer centre that is quite sharp not sour but sharp,i happy its grape flavour as i loved these even more for that reason.

KOIKE POLINKI,SWEET CORN FLAVOUR.
OK so these are a real Japanese treat,, these triangle corn puffs are light and fluffy with a real sweetcorn flavour,the flavour has been refined over 3 decades to perfect the best yet,

right back in the 80's in the UK we have corn snacks called skips crisps, and they are prawn cocktail ,but back then they brought out a sweetcorn flavour,this reminds me of those crisps,the flavour is so good ,the crisps are crispy and crunchy and worthy of being put in such a large bag for one person to eat.

GASHAPON JAPANESE CAPSULE TOY,
a real capsule toy full of high quality real McCoy Japanese merchandise,
these machines are found all over japan,includes toys or stationary,accessories,
this month is a figure from one piece roronoa zoro,

CHOCO KINAKO MOCHI,
a traditional Japanese chewy candy,this DIY kit lets you make an instant version of the classic,each piece then can be covered in kinako(sweet soy bean flour),and chocolate.

SIMPLY follow the pictures on the back of the pack and its easy to do ,then simply eat,

PETIT MATCHA.
chocolate chip matcha cookies.this is a long tube with loads of mini cookies.21 actually,these are infused with matcha tea and chocolate chips,

these were not as strong as the chocolate is ,so the cookies were nice to eat,i crumbled the majority into a biscuit base though and made a chocolate mousse and poured it over , the matcha tea base went so well with the rich chocolate mousse,

NIGATA DEEP FRIED SENBEI,
deep fried rice crackers,with a hint of soy sauce,a traditional snack eastern all over japan.

these are slightly salty rice crackers ,but so crispy ,they were very tasty and Moorish,

PURE FRUIT GUMMY -YUZU ANS MIKAN,
Japanese gummies always taste of authentic fruits, the pure range is up there in the top3 brands for this reason.
yuzu and mikan are citrus and sour flavours, they taste like lemon and lime,

shaped like mini fruit segments these are sour but sweet and fragrant seem to over ride the sourness ,these are very soft gummies that melt away in the mouth, very sugary on the outside,

MAGICAL TWIN POP COMBO GUMMY,
with over 11 flavours to discover these candies are a great way to play and make flavours up.
all can be combined to invent new flavours,
eating a lemon and a grape gummy will give you a cola gummy,

I really had fun testing these out and no other way to pass the time while getting a long tattoo done is by inventing new flavours to keep you going,
i had some real funny flavours but they all worked in one way or another,

so overall i really liked the products in this box ,it felt nice and jam packed with goodies .11 products in total ,and me and my son enjoyed eating these ,for value for money shipped to your door ,it works out cheaper for me in the UK.we get a good range of products every month, sometimes it candy orientated others is savoury snack, ,generally its a mix of the two that makes a good all round box, 

check back my previous reviews on boxes and i will see you next month for the march review,

MY BOX

UN BOXED,

MENU /INFO CARDS.

LADYKIN MANGCHEE LIFTING MASK.

the mangchee  lifting cream is more a thick gel cream helps moisturise and restores hydration back into the skin,helps dull and damaged skin.

this is loaded with Shea butter ,mango,cheese, on opening and while wearing all you can smell is the gorgeous mango.this also has  natural witch hazel and camellia sinesis leaf water.to help with pore troubles.

i applied it over my skin it felt cooling on application and smelt so god damn mango good.and went to sleep ,

SO MY THOUGHTS ARE  i liked this cream ,it doesn't need rinsing off it simply sinks into the skin, the skin felt soft and plumped up, i liked how moisturised my skin was ,the smell was amazing,mango ,i liked the cooling effect.and the way my skin tightened like when a clay mask is worn.

LADYKIN MANGCHEE REPLENISHING HAND CREAM.

the anti wrinkle function hand cream.

has quark  cheese extracts.leaf extracts,,apparently Cleopatra used the leaf extracts in her beauty regime,it adds adenosine for the anti wrinkle ingredients into it.the idea is it forms a barrier for lasting skin protection.this cream smells yummy again with the added mango extracts.for clearer skin,Camellia sinesis leaf water for vitamins and polyphenol for hydration.

SO MY THOUGHTS ARE.this is a really thick moisturising cream ,one of the better ones from a memebox and is like my favourite locating ,its rich and creamy, sinks in well no greasy after effects.the smell again is lovely and not synthetic at all.

BLANC DOUX PINOT NOIR UV SHIELD AND TONE UP SENSITIVE.

so this is a specially formulated sunscreen with antioxidants from red wine.

a mild sunblock with a medium UV/uvb  protection.it helps replenish  and brighten the skin,

SO MY THOUGHTS.i like that its a gentle sunblock ideal for winter and i can mix my CC  and BB cream in with it.

ENPRANI DEAR BY ENPRANI BOUNCE CHEESE CREAM.

i flipping love this stuff,love it,

this cream is so good softening for the skin,the cheese bounce cream is awesome and if you put between your fingers it goes stringy like mozzarella.protein rich in whey ,its loaded with vitamin ,A,B,E.honey proteins.i love using this for daytime use. this is a cult memebox product.a great oozing gooey cream that sinks and moisturises my skin so well.

(yes i have issues this is half my stash).

INNISFREE WINE PEELING JELLY SOFTENER.

INNISFREE CULT PRODUCT.

this is a peeling liquid that you put on the face and as you roll it over the skin it picks up all the dirt and dead skin while you gentle massage the skin at the same time. this has infusions of  chateau  Margaux.the queen of all wines. a gentle but all round exfoliator is not harsh on the skin,

SO MY THOUGHTS,it goes over the skin lovely and massages in well, it does roll the dirt and grime out of the skin,once rinsed off it leaves the skin smooth and clean, to then use a toner and cream afterwards. a lovely little product.

TONY MOLY I'M REAL RED WINE MASK SHEET PORE CARE X2.

we got these 2 sheet masks, not gonna complain. these are enriched with rich red wine complex,evens out oil balance and skin texture. its a free from product so no pasties in it.

SO MY THOUGHTS . me and the son used this sheet masks as i got 2 boxes, we loved wearing them ,it felt like i was good for the skin, my teenage son suffers with oily t zone and it cleared it up well , so a yes from us.

so i loved these boxes ,a great range of products.and will be all used and loved playing around with them, there is always certain boxes hat make me haul from memebox and i knew when it came out before spoilers it was a haul box..this box was going to be epic hence why i got 3 separate boxes and 1 bundle, 

but this box has turned in to epic for the wrong reasons.

the push back of shipping dates has caused so much trouble amongst the memebox community ,after shipping 4 days later we received an email to say that out of the 500 boxes ordered  only 200 were sent with the innisfree product. if you were like me ordered in the first 10 minutes of it going on VIP i understand totally why you are so upset with memebox over the whole thing,yes my boxes sent bar 1, i have 3 boxes and awaiting now one more box that has been pushed back to December ,and will no longer be sent with the innisfree product, annoyed yes but i feel worse for people who only ordered 1 box and not got sent out,how can a company mess up so much, we paid for express to be sent out fast and first ,these are cancelled ,and of course some people who ordered standard  boxes on the first day not through later restocks have had there boxes not sent ,how is that fair, surely first come first served, but NO  ,i have arranged with a girl in the UK to have one of my innisfree bottles as its so unfair ,she ordered first few hours and now is caught in this mess,

it doesn't wash that innisfree never sent enough either, and if the product is no longer included but excuse me memebox but why is it being held up for another 2 weeks before shipping ,the option was keep the box or cancel, well i feel the box should be shipped now regardless.

thumbs up BLOGGERS PICK ,more thumbs down,

hey hey its time for the thumbs up Bloggers pick box, 
this has been thought of as a good box as memebox sent us bloggers a survey to fill in , on the survey it was split into make up ,hair, care ,face,etc you get the drift and we could fill in an answer of our best loved products we had come across.
now I'm not gonna lie as you all know me by now, the bounce cheese cream, too cool for school face gel mist and the cherry blossom hair treatment conditioner was on my love list.to name a few. because to be fair memebox couldn't go wrong with a box that bloggers picked RIGHT.memebox wouldn't upset the bloggers that actually sell the boxes for memebox and do all the ground work RIGHT.
WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG, OF COURSE THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION AND UN BOXING,
SO MAYBE SOME BLOGGERS DID CHOOSE THESE PRODUCTS IN THE SURVEY BECAUSE MAYBE AT THE START OF SEPTEMBER WHEN THE SURVEY WENT OUT THEY HAD PSYCHIC KNOWLEDGE ON FUTURE BOXES TO COME SO COULD NAME THESE PRODUCTS.sadly most i mean 4 boxes had not been released at the time.

on the card memebox write--
we took a  major survey of the memebox beauty community,our amazing and wonderful memebox beauty bloggers and asked them they are currently obsessing over.and then compiled a top beauty picks,
we have taken their top favourites and boxed it up into this bloggers pick box.

so my box

UN boxed 

menu card.

N.S.M REBORN TINT.
this lip tint puts a film over the skin that locks in moisture and nutrition,this lip tint melts into the lip straight away ,i like the cooling feeling on application. 
I've had 3 of these now 2 orange  and 1 red cant give them away. at least this time i got the pink so it is wearable,
from cooling care box and make up edition.march and august

LADYKIN AQUA EXFOLIATOR FOR BODY.
this exfoliator is  rich in papaya  and pineapple extracts.it exfoliates all the dead skin cells and gunk out the skin,simply spray over the skin then roll it off your skin.
to be fair it didn't work well the first time i got this so I'm not wasting time using again, not a great product 
from omg1 box. September 

CROQUIS DUAL CONCEALER,
never tried this before so will be testing this out if its not too dark on my skin.
an anti wrinkle concealer and spot treatment in either end.so it would be good for on the go camouflage ,simply a cover up. 
but not a raved about product.
from girls night out box.august

HAIR + VELVET NUTRI INJECTION.
a hair treatment for damaged hair .simply rub through the ends of towel dried  hair for that salon clinic treatment.
from jackpot box - i don't think many bloggers bought this certainly didn't have huge UN boxing posts.September

EVAS COSMETICS VITAMIN CLEANSING DESSERT,
i got lemon again,this leaves my skin very dry so its used for shaving my legs, you only need a tiny amount of this as it lathers up a lot,this is meant to remove dirt and make up no problem.
and be used on the face,
my cute wish list 2,September

23YEARS OLD AIR-LAYNIC PORE MASK,
the syringe is easy to use you simply place it all over the sheet mask ,lay it on the cheeks and nose and then let the micro bubbles sink into the skin,you leave it on for 25 minutes long.it may sting a little but it firms the skin. and clears it out.
luckybox7.July

PUREBESS GALACTOMYCES 100%
galactomyces helps keep the skin  moisturised  but will also get rid of residue build up in lines and pores.
this can be added to the skin just before using an emulsion or face cream.
whole grain 1,July

SECRET KEY COLOR RECIPE THE PINK CREAM
this cream is suppose to target fine wrinkles and lines on your face ,it helps to tighten and lift up dry, sagging skin giving you a younger softer look.
you massage the cream over the face and let the capsules  pop in the skin.
the only one product i am actually excited to try out ,never received the pinkaholic box, October

so overall this box was nothing to wow about, and many boxes hadn't shipped before the survey went out so i can't see how people voted the products, to me it seems like they boosted this box up with the pureness galctomyces and then used the warehouse to empty into boxes.after hearing from others i don't feel i am alone in my thinking either, this could of been a great box instead memebox have made their bloggers and influencers and ambassadors look silly, it doesn't sell your company and alienates customers.i just hope some people are really happy with the box ,i just feel i let my readers down with this box if they bought through my link.i hope that real bloggers ,and you tubers did ad these products to their list i look forward to hearing from people who added them, on the other hand it could be a great box for someone new to memebox ,id rather recommend a global or lucky box over this though.i will not be buying a bloggers pick or best of box again,roll on omg4,kstyle4 and my cute wish list4 seeing as memebox said they would listen to the customer for actual cute, weird and wacky.
