you said your hair was still "wet" - I had assumed you left it in as a leave in conditioner. Did you not rinse out completely after 5-10 minutes? You had said it was a conditioner, which is isn't - that is why I said that - it is a hair treatment that is supposed to be rinsed out completely after 5-10 minutes. I apologize if I offended you, but your comment did read like it had been applied as a leave in conditioner.Except for the lip stuff, I think everything is packaged absolutely beautiful. What's funny is that the most miraculous product ever made, was hidden on a bottom shelf of a drug store. And the box looked like something you would buy at a five and dime. Discontinued just recently, I suspect. But it was the sole reason I am 51 without a single wrinkle. It actually reversed the starts of wrinkles over 10 years ago when I started using it. My skin looks better now than when I was 40.
My research and review is based on how the products perform on my body, not what is in it. I tend to shy away from products heavy with alcohol, such as the peeling mask, since it damages skin. My preference, that's all. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
You know everyone raves about the Sonya Dakar Flash facial. But for me, it makes my face look like a dry wrinkled dish rag. Amazingly the Sara Mcnamara Hydroactive Microderm makes my skin breathtakingly radiant! What I am getting at is that everyones skin is different.
Now for the hair treatment, I read the card. Nothing difficult about that. So I suppose I used that right or do you have pictures of me doing something illegal with it? LOL....
everyone's skin is different, that said - your original comment wasn't based on your skin, you were blasting the whole box as being not quality. It wasn't that it wasn't quality items, but it was based on ingredients and personal preferences. Which is fine, but your original comment didn't clarify that and it was confusing why you thought it was not a "quality" box. It actually is a quality box, but you have personal preferences that makes it unusable for you.
Since you said that "My research and review is based on how the products perform on my body", did you try all of the products before making the judgement that it was not a "quality box"? Just curious, because you only mentioned the leave in treatment (which you called a conditioner) What other products from the Honey box did you try, do you mind sharing your results with those products?
I have purchased and reviewed many boxes from memebox and I can tell the difference between an item that is not suited for me but it is a good product for those whose skin/hair type it would be applicable vs a completely horrid product. There are some ingredients I don't use either, but that is a personal preference and not necessarily an indication of the product itself. I would not condemn an item because I personally didn't like an ingredient - it might be a product that is fine for someone else.
I think that is the difference - memebox doesn't sound like it would work for you, because it is a mystery box - you will get items that aren't suited for your skin/hair type - and again, that isn't the fault of memebox. All mystery boxes work that way. You might be better off just purchasing items that interest you.
I am not overly picky - I am also pretty wrinkle free at my age (which is close to yours) except around my eyes, as I used to sail a lot on the ocean when I lived by it. But I am more adventurous with my skin care, so memebox is fun for me!
I have used from the honey box
- the peeling gel (I don't have issues with the alcohol) and it works fine on my oily skin to help clean out the "gunk" on my face and tighten up pores. It does remind me of Honey, Take it Off mask that we got in ipsy and I really liked that
- hand cream - love this! I enjoy the scent and it is in my purse - I have used other honey hand creams and this is a nice one for me
- massage cream - it leaves my skin smooth and hydrated. I use it before I go to bed at night and this is a one of my favorites right now.
- the honey mask - it is a facial sheet mask. I have so many of them, they really do not stand out right now!! lol
the snail lip product I gave away as well as the hair treatment,as I do not have dry or damaged hair.
I have not used the waterdrop yet as I have other products to get to yet, but my swatches of it give me high hopes for it!
