Love My Little Box this month. My only grump is the mascara isn't waterproof, but that's just me, I do have a tendency to rub my eyes.

To add to Pleut's post, the Ciate calendars are last years and are also available in store.

If you want to fill your own, Poundland's own brand new range of make up has had some really good reviews, and I can certainly vouch for the eye shadow, which is really good, lasts well and doesn't crease.

Is anyone thinking of cancelling their pending memeboxes? There are now only 3 boxes on the whole membox site.

Something not good is happening....

Mine's still on its way - looking forward to it!

Has anyone else not had their Etude order yet? The tracking says mine was put on a flight out of Incheon four days ago and there's been no update since then.

I've not had mine either, but usually when I've had Korean parcels hit Incheon it takes about a week in transit before the tracking updates to UK (at which point they've reached Heathrow customs).

I think they just try to focus on the shop as it is more profitable. They released some boxes that they were shipping within days like the soothing sista and thanksgiving. But they sold out quickly... Maybe they learnt from their mistakes (see cpm2) and they decided to release less often and have less boxes available. They opened also the new china shop and I guessed they are focused on that one as well.

I personally don't worry at the moment.

Don't expect much from the Black Friday sale at memebox btw. Seems it'll be 20% off stuff in the store (and could be US store only as well). There are loads of other korean beauty stores online that ship to the UK including TesterKorea and KoreaDepart as well as YesStyle. Shipping is based on the weight but you can pick whether its fast or slow (both methods will give a tracking number). Orders from Korea normally take 10 days on average to arrive once shipped. After leaving Incheon airport, it'll take 4 days to get to GBLALA which is a massive warehouse complex near Heathrow. It can then take a few days to process through customs (though I've not been charged yet for any order coming from Korea) before heading to your house for delivery.

I've had two Etude House orders delivered but one MIA (last seen at Incheon on the 20th) so have a feeling my luck and customs may have just ended!

YesStyle has clothes as well as beauty products and prices are in UK pounds.

TesterKorea is in won but you can pay in either Thai Baht or US dollars at the moment baht is actually cheaper!


KoreaDepart is dollars and all accept Paypal

Hope this helps

The memebox site is not coming up, just a blank page? Was going to have a browse and maybe order one but don't know what's happening.

It works for me. But there are only two boxes left in memebox... I hope they release more soon!

For those who have ordered the Innisfree box from Memebox, its been cancelled btw. You'll get a refund and 7 memepoints (though there are only the two boxes left at the moment). The points don't have an expiry date so if they ever get their act together again...
