    I agree YBD is a bit poor this month. In fact, this is the first time I've ever cancelled but a bit disappointed that one of the freebies is part of a book.

    New UK a based company doing korean beauty boxes called kawaiipanda.co.uk

    It's not a subscription box - standalone boxes so you can pick which one you'd like to try. Also going to have themed boxes which will be nice if you haven't tried K beauty products before. They have a sheet mask pouch too each month.

    Korean Beauty products are years ahead of Western items - they introduced the air cushion foundation pack, NOT as Lancôme would like customers to believe! They also use innovative ingredients like snail mucin and their hygiene and regulation system is very robust as Korean ladies are very picky about what they put on their face but have a 10 step regime and spend a LOT of time and money looking good!:o

    I was wondered about the serums too, but in the end got only the StriVectin one and the bronzer.

    I have a feeling you and are both on the same Facebook group. I really miss memebox. I now order from testerkorea and roseroseshop for my fix. I do use the 10 step routine and my skin thanks me for it.

    Nope, not on Facebook but did buy a LOT of Membox in the past so when they announced they were ceasing international sales back in Feb bought from TesterKorea, Roseroseshop, BeautyNetKorea, KoreaDepart and then Beauteque (though had terrible CS with them and not been back). I'm not quite up to the 10 step process but do 2 cleansers, toner, serum and moisturiser if I've had make-up on and a sheet mask on a Wed and Fri so getting there lol!

    Skin18.com is worth a look as they have LOTS of free masks (you pay postage but that's free if you spend >$40 in their store). You do have to leave a review of the products but small price to pay for free sheet masks including hydrogel ones! Ship from Hong Kong and yet to pay customs on any order either :T

    Thank you, I have already ordered masks from skin18. Never paid customs yet but I am sure it will happen soon ; )
    I have heard a few people having problems with Beauteque. I really don't need to buy any more I have hoardings tendencies then feel guilty and give things away.

    I have posted that there is a 5 month subscription for Birchbox for £34 instead of 59 on wowcher.co.uk, but my post was deleted... any idea why?
