I have always been interested in trying Asian beauty products. However, they are not easy to find in the US! I love that there are subscription boxes that ship in the US that feature Asian beauty. PinkSeoul is a new K-Beauty subscription. I was so excited about this subscription because they cater the box to your specific skin needs. There are three different box options: The Mask Box (monthly mask subscription for $29.95/month), K-Beauty PinkSeoul Box (customized bi-monthly box for $39.95 and is over a $60 value), and The PinkSeoul Plus Box (customized bi-monthly box recommended for age 35+ for $49.95 and is over an $80 value). I received the K-Beauty PinkSeoul Box for dry skin. If you sign up now, you will receive this box for your skin type (items will be catered to your skin needs) in June. Your next box would then be August because it is a bi-monthly subscription. This box is customized with at least 4-FULL SIZED K-Beauty products and an accessory item.

FIRST IMPRESSION:

I was impressed with how fast I received the box! The box came nicely packaged and I really loved the box with the cute labeling. Inside was so nicely packaged with an informational card.  The card was all about my skin type (dry skin) and the products that were customized for my skin type. It gave the retail value for each item included too. I love that there are tips for dry skin and I really love just how personalized this box is. I have never received a subscription box that was so personalized. I really love it! They even listed the products in order of how you should use them! How amazing is that?! I was beyond excited to dig in the box and see what all I received!


REVIEW OF ITEMS:

Skin&Lab Vita Energy Toner & Mist ($16)

This is a FULL SIZE! I am a huge fan of toners and love that this toner has Hyaluronic Acid for hydration. I can’t wait to use it!

IMG_7574

SNP Masks and Nature Republic Tinted CC Cream ($3 each for masks)

The masks are FULL SIZE and the CC cream is a sample. I love sheet masks and these are pretty good sheet masks. I can’t wait to try the tinted CC cream!

Secret Key Starting Treatment Eye Cream ($15)

This is a FULL SIZE! I have used this eye cream before and I love it. It feels amazing under the eyes and sinks in lightening fast. It seriously is an amazing eye cream.

Illi Fresh Moisture Sun Cream ($19.95)

This is a FULL SIZE! All subscribers received a sun protection item that was selected for their skin type and area of focus. They wanted to include a sun protection item that would best match your skin type/focus. How awesome is that?! I just love how customized this box is! This sun cream is moisturizing and slightly tinted in a peach color to give your skin a glowy finish. It is also supposed to smell amazing. It sounds so awesome and I am so excited to try this sun cream.

SkinFood Black Bean Eye Liner ($5)

This is a FULL SIZE! I have this eyeliner and I really like it. It contains soy bean and avocado oil so it is suitable for those with a sensitive eye area. It is not used for a sharp eyeliner look but rather a more natural blended look. It really does work great for creating a more natural look.

Holika Holika Cuticle Oil ($6)

This is a FULL SIZE! My nails could definitely use this oil. I can’t wait to use it!

IMG_7572

Heimish All Clean Balm ($2)

This is a deluxe sample size! I love cleansing balms so much! They do an amazing job at removing your makeup. I love watching them turn from a solid to an oil that dissolves all your makeup. They even included a spatula so I won’t have to use my fingers. I really can’t wait to test this cleansing balm.

Accessory: Gold Nail Stickers ($5)

This is a FULL SIZE! I can’t wait to use these to create fun nail art. I really need to up my nail game!  I love that PinkSeoul includes an accessory!


OVERALL IMPRESSION:

I loved this PinkSeoul box! I am just so impressed and love how each box caters to your specific skin type. No more having to give away products because they don’t work for your skin.  I love the information cards they included because they have such a personal touch. You can really tell so much work went into creating this box. All the products are amazing and so many are FULL SIZED! For only $39.95, I received over $75 worth of products! I will seriously use every single item included! Every product was unique and just so adorable! I really can’t say enough great things about this subscription and I am so impressed! I can’t wait to see what will be in the next box! Note: Your box will be catered to your skin type and you may receive different products. If you have dry skin, your box will be similar to mine!
