1) Tosowoong Bee AC Control Lotion or Toner - 100ml/ full size product ($15)

| Tosowoong Bee AC Control Lotion. |
Lately I have seen many cosmetics with synthetic snake venom as its active ingredient but having the actual bee venom in a skin care product is new to me. I wonder if it can cause an allergic reaction in susceptible people though. The formula of this lotion is very light, yet hydrating. It is suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin which means it shouldn't break you out.
Product Description:
Tosowoong's Bee AC Control series is formulated from naturally derived ingredients - bee venom, galactomyces, and bifida ferments - that effectively soothe and neutralize acne-prone or stimulated skin. This skin care line is especially recommended for those with sensitive, problematic skin that receives damage easily from dryness and the external environment.
How to use:
Apply toner directly with your hands or use a cotton pad to gently wipe across cleansed face. Apply lotion evenly over toned face, massaging and patting it on for full absorbance.
2) Unni Recipe Makes Your Skin Smooth Firming Pact SPF25 PA++ #21 LightBeige - 12g/ full size product ($24)

| Unni Recipe - Makes Your Skin Smooth Firming Pact in #21 Light Beige. |
This product has a mousse like texture and it functions just like a BB cream by offering sunscreen protection, skin treatment and decent coverage. The shade #21 Light Beige fits me perfectly and the formula melted right into my skin once applied. I enjoy this product way more than I thought I would initially!
Product Description:
Most cushion pacts offer flawless coverage along with strong adherence but only end up choking the skin all day, which ultimately brings about dehydration, breakouts, and premature aging. However, this innovative Unni Recipe pact helps skin breathe through and over full makeup. Its moist, cushiony formula is infused with a mix of galactomyces, bifida, and lactobasillus ferments and Unni Recipe's special 'Silky Balance Network'. It smoothly coats over skin with a natural coverage and leaves skin feeling silky soft and revitalized.
How to use:
Use the provided sponge to gently dab on the formula all over the face.
3) AHC Whitening Cream SPF35 PA++ - 30ml/ full size product ($38)
I don't usually care about whitening creams because I don't think they can make a noticeable difference. This product, however, has SPF35 and it gives the skin a silky texture once applied. It goes super well under makeup and doesn't feel heavy on the skin. So, I see this product more as a sunscreen + primer than a pure whitening cream. I will definitely be using it on a regular basis.
Product Description:
Skin brightening is with no doubt one of the most sought-after features that Korean women take into consideration when purchasing skin care or base makeup products. This AHC Whitening Cream combines moisturizing cream, sunblock, brightening cream, and complexion correcting cream to provide the ultimate 4-in-1 multi-care. A vitamin-rich blend of niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, lemon, kakadu plum, kamu kamu berry and betaine deeply replenishes dry, damaged skin and visibly corrects uneven skin tone to create the signature dewy, translucent complexion so adored by Korean women.
How to use:
Apply the cream evenly all over face, massaging it in gently for full absorbance. Finish off with a foundation or a BB cream for full coverage.
4) RiRe Cool Dr. Scalp+ 10ml & Hot Speed Manicure 15ml/ full size product ($11)

| The texture of RiRe Cool Dr. Scalp+. |
The 'Cool Dr. Scalp+' works as a scalp treatment while the 'Hot Speed Manicure' as a hair essence. These are leave in products that do not require rinsing and the consistency of Cool Dr. Scalp+ is slightly more fluid than the Hot Speed Manicure. I applied these products on my scalp and hair respectively but could not notice any significant cooling or heating sensation however.
Product Description:
Enriched with various oriental medicinal extracts, the Cool Dr. Scalp+ works to cool down the scalp temperature for preventing possible hair loss and also to remove unnecessary impurities and dead skin cells from your scalp for both healthier scalp and hair. Then, there's the Hot Speed Manicure which works to penetrate deep into the hair cuticles, deliver abundant nutrition and creates a strong protein layer for maintaining the healthy moisture balance of your hair.
How to use:
Cool Dr. Scalp+: Squeeze out the formula and massage it directly onto scalp. No need to shampoo or rinse afterwards.
Hot Speed Manicure: Apply it as a hair treatment or a hair essence on both wet and blow dried hair.
5) RiRe Capsule Mask Pack - 75ml/ full size product ($22)
Randomly selected from Moisture, Whitening, Anti-Aging
This innovative mask pack comes in a spray bottle and it can be used similarly to a facial mist only that the hydrating effect should be far more prominent. You can apply it under or over makeup which makes this product super convenient. An excellent item to keep in your office drawer.
Product Description:
Is your skin suffering from constant dehydration this winter? This innovative spray-type mask pack is here to save the day. A mix of adenosine, niacinamide, cherry blossom, evening primrose, and violet extracts delivers such nutrients and instant moisture resurge to dry, sensitive skin.
How to use:
Spray it evenly over face under or over makeup as often as needed.
After going through each single product, I am actually quite satisfied with this box. Though, I wouldn't have minded if Memebox threw in an IOPE product there. ;) Did you have higher expectations from this box as well?
