BomiBox November 2018 “Recover” Review

The holiday season is a great time to let down your hair, eat, drink and be merry. Unfortunately, changes in our normal routine can wreak havoc on our skin. This month's box provides essentials to help your skin recover from the holiday festivities.

BomiBox has detailed info cards for each box on their website. The info card provides a description of all the items included in the box and instructions on how to use them. This is clutch since a lot of the products have instructions that are not in English.

BomiBox November 2018 - Bubble Tea 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Bubble Tea 2

BomiBox November 2018 - Bubble Tea 3

Etude House Bubble Tea Sleeping Pack in Strawberry, 3.5 oz - Retail Value $13.20

This bubble tea sleeping pack comes in super cute packaging. The product contains a strawberry gel and moisture capsule bubbles. Use the spatula to scoop out a bit of gel and one or two of the moisture bubbles. Rupture the bubbles, apply to your face overnight and rinse with warm water in the morning. This night mask is said to aid in skin moisture, elasticity, and firmness. I really enjoyed using this product. It smells great and my face felt amazingly soft in the morning.

BomiBox November 2018 - Keep Cool Water 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Keep Cool Water 2

Keep Cool Soothe Phyto Green Shower Cleansing Water, 3.38 oz – Estimated Value $2.00 (buy a 16.9 fl oz. bottle for $10.00)

This cleansing water has a slight acidity level (pH 5.6) and removes makeup, cleanses, and moisturizes in one swipe. In addition to water, this cleanser contains natural and calming ingredients like green tea, flower, and rosemary leaf extracts. To use, apply to a cotton ball and gently wipe your face. I used this cleansing water to remove my makeup. It came off easily and didn't leave my skin dry or irritated.

BomiBox November 2018 - Perfume Brush 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Perfume Brush 2

BomiBox November 2018 - Perfume Brush 3

Glowhill Spot Perfume Brush in Peony & Blush, 0.24 oz - Retail Value $15.00

A perfume brush? I didn't know such a product existed! This spot perfume brush is portable and would travel well. With a turn and a push of the button, a perfumed gel is dispensed on the brush to be applied to your wrist or wherever you'd like. I generally don't enjoy floral scents but this perfume smells quite literally like a bouquet of freshly picked flowers. It's such a sweet and lady-like scent that I can't help but love it. My husband loves it too!

BomiBox November 2018 - Hair Treatment 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Hair Treatment 2

CP-1 Premium Hair Treatment, 25ml - Retail Value $9

This hair repairing treatment functions much like a conditioner. After shampooing, apply the product to your hair for 10-15 minutes. Apply heat for a more intense treatment. The quinoa extract and protein smooths, detangles, and repairs tired strands.

BomiBox November 2018 - Repair Cream 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Repair Cream 2

Rovectin Skin Essentials Barrier Repair Cream Concentrate Mini, 0.3 oz – Estimated Retail Value $5.52 (buy a 45ml tube for $28.00)

I'll be honest and say I have no idea what to do with this product! The info card says that it enhances skin quality of life and tolerability from extremely stressed skin conditions. It's intended to be applied to areas of very dry skin, face, and neck. My guess is that it's an intensive moisturizer. It's creamy, thick, and fragrance-free.

BomiBox November 2018 - Snail Bee 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Snail Bee 2

Benton Snail Bee High Content Steam Cream, 0.42 oz – Estimated Value $4.77 (Buy 1.76 oz for $20.00)

Hydrating snail mucus and collagen-producing bee venom? Why not?! This is by far the most interesting beauty product I've received in a box. It's also a steam cream blended using high temperatures and steam technology. It's meant to be applied to cleansed skin and goes on clear and fragrance-free.

BomiBox November 2018 - Balm 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Balm 2

BomiBox November 2018 - Balm 3

Heimish All Clean Balm, 5 ml – Estimated Retail Value $0.75 (Buy 120 ml for $18.00)

This sample sized cleansing balm was included as a bonus item in this month’s box. The balm has shea butter, herb oil and coconut extract to help gently remove make-up and moisturize, soothe and soften skin.

BomiBox November 2018 - Hyggee Mask 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Hyggee Mask 2

Hyggee All In One Tightening & Firming Mask – Retail Value $4.50 (Found here for $4.00)

I am excited to try this face mask! It has collagen and camellia japonica essence which promotes skin tightening and firming in only 20 minutes.

BomiBox November 2018 - Sweet Mask 1

BomiBox November 2018 - Sweet Mask 2

Package Sweet Dreams Deep Sleeping Mask - Retail Value $3.50

This mask sounds perfect for relaxation and recovery. It’s infused with shea butter and jojoba oil for moisture and lavender which is a very calming scent. It’s intended to be applied before bedtime for a restful night’s sleep.

The Verdict: This box was awesome! With maybe the exception of the Rovectin repair cream (which I’m still confused by), I loved and will likely use every item in this month’s box. The peony perfume and the bubble tea products are my favorite. I loved the keep cool soothe water too and I can never get enough facial masks. This box cost $37.99 and has an estimated retail value of $58.24. I believe this is a fair value for the opportunity to try a wide range Korean beauty products.

Hi, I’m Shatae; pronounced shhh-tay! I work in IT Healthcare, I’m married to my high school sweetheart and we have 2 cool kids. I am obsessed with black culture, lifestyle, travel and art made by and featuring women of color. I also love trendy plus-size fashion and accessories, eclectic and bohemian home décor and all things self-care, mental health and fitness. My favorite box is Izzy & Liv’s Brown Sugar Box; a monthly box offering tees, accessories and lifestyle products designed for black women. I also subscribe to TheSelfCareBox, FabFitFun, CauseBox and Merkaela. Being a wife and full-time working mom, subscription boxes are one of the few things that are just for me! They are fun, convenient, reasonably priced and full of surprises.

Bomibag was somewhat similar. I used the Rovectin cream on my knuckles because they are cracked and bleeding from dryness, whereas that pretty much never happens to my face. That Hyggee mask used like the most fabric of any mask I’ve ever tried before.

Ohhhh, OK! That makes sense! Did it work? I sometimes get dry patches in the winter. I’ll try it on those.

I think it helped. I just have to remember to do it pretty often. I can’t say whether it’s better than any other lotion used on the hands, though. I saw the same directions you did but didn’t feel I could really say anything useful about it if used as directed since my face is on the normal/oily side during winter.
