Shipping

First off, I was introduced to Beauteque from Rissas instagram and was super excited at what was in previous boxes and all of the hype that I just had to get a box for myself!
Let's start with the shipping, I only have a few discrepencies that are pretty menial and won't affect my final thoughts on the box or company.  The first one I had which was my fault for not checking the cut off line for the current months box.  I guess I had ordered my box right after the July box deadline had past which had caused me to wait a whole extra month and wonder where my box was!  Luckily with their excellent customer service I had a fast response to my concerns and no more worries had taken place!

My second concern was that, oh.. August 20th or more had gone by and I still hadn't received any notification on my box being shipped or anything! Where is my box!!! Yet again, another email was sent out from me with great customer service, apparently they were having a slight delay in their shipping this month and they would contact me with a tracking number when it was shipped! Great, Thank you!  I got an email that it was shipped a few days later, but with no tracking number which was quite unfortunate but after only a few short days later I received my package!  Beauteque was kind enough to send my box in Express Post with no additional costs for me.
I want to give shipping a 4/5 but only because I didn't receive my tracking number, that was pretty odd in my opinion but other than that it was great.

Now onto the goodies!

I think it was a little bit misleading because this month said a 'Treasure chest' and the inner child came out in me and I thought it would come in a little treasure chest as a box. haha silly me.  Anyway, it was disappointing to see a bag instead of a treasure chest.

No worries, we got a free face mask!

 Just look at how cute that little wee face is, aw aw aw!

 So I received 3 masks in my bag.

 The first mask showing is the Hanaka V-Line Chin Patch. This gets strapped to your ears and goes around your chin for 20-30 minutes then you remove and massage any remaining essence into your skin.

The middle mask is the Pure Derm Hair mask.  In this bag you have the option to get the Honey Mask, Chamomile, or Jojoba oil mask.  I received the chamomile mask which is a helping tool to reduce the look of damage and frizz.

The last mask is Pure Derm Clean and Fresh Peeling Gel. This mask is designed to deep clean and exfoliate skin for a refined finish.

Next we got 3 makeup items. 

The first one is blotting paper.  This is designed to blot away any excess oil without ruining your makeup!

Next up we've got Holika holika Wonder Drawing No Smudge Liquid Eyeliner.  ~Say that ten times fast. 

Lastly, The Saem Perfection Concealer Tip Cover.  In this box you had the option to get three different shades.  Luckily I think I got a shade that is quite  close to my skintone! ~Crosses fingers this will be a close match!

Lastly, is the Mizon All in One Snail Repair Cream.  I love Snail gel creams so I have no doubt that this is a great product for anybody! The description says that it's a high concentration of 92% snail extract which promotes skin repair to effectively resolve skin problems.

Let's talk about money

Holika Holika Eyeliner $13.50

Han aka V-Line Chin Patch $3.80

Pure Derm and Fresh Peeling Gel $8.50

Mizon All in One Snail Repair Cream $25.00

The Saem Perfection Concealer Tip Cover $8.50

Pure Derm Hair Mask $6.95

Blotting Paper $5.00
Bag $5.00
Free Han aka Mask $5.00

Adding up to a total of $81.25USD value!    This beauty box is $24.00USD.  I think that it's a great value for somebody who is a resident of the United States or the conversion rate is basically on par with the States.  I will be renewing my membership once the Canadian dollars get more in tune with the American dollar.  This box for me was $40-50.00 I can't quite remember exactly how much as it's been so long. 

*I added an estimate amount of $5.00 on the free mask and bag so that will be up to your own discretion on what you think is appropriate. *

 

Overall

Now that I've sat down and taken a look at how much actually came in this box, I think it's a great purchase!  There's an option for going month to month as well as multiple months at a discounted price.  What was really nice about this box is that there are multiple products from brands that I've yet to try which brings my excitement level up that much more!I'm still a little upset that it didn't come in a treasure chest however, I'm looking forward to being able to buy these boxes once again and sharing my thoughts on the goodies at hand with you!

I was actually inspired by Beejuboxes for this box and did most if not all of my research on her blog in deciding which box I should purchase.  Because I'm so into the Asian fashion, I decided to go with an Asian box for starters, oh and the price was right as well!

So basically this box is a monthly subscription service that allows you to have a one time trial box for a lower price than normal.   You have three selections on which size box you would prefer to get. I decided to opt for the trial box at $15.00 because I haven't really tried Asian snacks before and didn't know what to expect!
Oh, before I forget and get into the box overview, I had thought I got jipped by this company as it had been about 2 months after I purchased before I even seen this box.  Apparently they are having troubles keeping up with the demand.  Must be a decent box.

 So this is the first thing I see when opening the box! Could this be the pamphlet of what's inside??

Well, sort of.. Guess I'll just try my best to guess what is what.

Honestly, I was shocked at how much was in here and didn't expect so much just from what I could see in this picture.

This snack had the texture like a rice cake but melted in your mouth almost instantly.  The outside is hard that makes a crunch like a cookie and tastes sweet and salty, yum!

 This is another cracker type snack.  Turns out this has a spice to it, something that you would put on a BBQ'd steak or hamburger.  Definitely a distinct taste.

Gummy oranges, nothing too special about this snack.  There's only 5 in the entire package? That's not really a whole lot.

OH MY GOD!! These are not only the cutest but so delicious!  It is a graham based treat with a milk chocolate coating.  Don't be deceived either, the chocolate definitely overweighs the graham part.  Where can I get a ton of these?!! They're amazing!!

Honestly scared to eat this!  With not being a huge fan of beef jerky, this is what it reminded me of.  This was super sticky and extremely hard to bite off, the texture was like a hard plastic, and it was spicy too!  I didn't plan on finishing it but did anyway because it was giving my senses a run for their money.

This snack I was excited to eat but didn't really end up being anything special.  It reminds me of one of those treats you would get around Christmas time because of its fancy looks.  The top layer is coated in thin chocolate and the inside is like a wafer.  This didn't have much taste either.

Next up we have a powder drink and I think some noodles you put in boiling water and eat that way?  Neither of which I am going to try right now as I don't need a meal at this moment!

Yet again another rice cake type snack.  This one is hard and with not much taste.  It doesn't do much for me so I didn't finish it.

Next we have a whole lot of small snacks!

I could tell how rich this was just from the smell, delicious! All chocolate.

 Japanese version of our Rockets? Nope! They're fizzy candy with a very odd taste.  Not sure what to think of these, probably something I need to get used to.

I expected these to be just coated in chocolate with a wafer cookie inside. It's more like a rice krispy snack, but rice krispies to suit ants.  I liked this snack.

Japanese version of Smarties?  The chocolate isn't as good as Nestle!

No idea what this is!  Strawberry flavored Gobstobbers? No, wait, bubblegum? OH MY GOD IT'S BUBBLEGUM!! lol Strawberry flavored bubblegum.  This reminds me of hubba bubba.

Also got a chocolate covered bite sized almond square.  That was really good as well.

So, for $15.00 I would say that is a great deal!  Considering it is coming straight from Japan you add in the shipping costs, it's pretty much a steal in my books. Most of these snacks were a hit with a few duds, but hey that's what you're going to get in foreign food anyway.  I really enjoyed this box nonetheless!
