Althea 'Born This Way' Beauty Box Review


Recently I received the Althea 'Born This Way' Beauty Box all the way from Korea for review. This is my first Althea Beauty Box review and I am very excited and happy because I liked all the items in this box and some are really very good beauty products. There were 7 full size Korean beauty products and 1 free mask. If you haven't heard of Althea, it is the leading K-Beauty site with over 150 Korean beauty brands and to know more about Althea beauty boxes, click HERE



The beauty products in this box are :
  • Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam
  • Beuins Nutrient Emulsion Skin
  • 3CE Back To Baby Pore Velvet Primer
  • Max Clinic Catrin Natural 100 Mineral Sunkill RX
  • Aritaum Mono Eyes Eyeshadow
  • Etude House Dear Darling Ice-Cream Water Gel Tint (Watermelon Red)
  • Pure Smile Art Point Pack
  • Dr. Mind Apot Red Mask
All these full size beauty products are worth a total of RM 567.00 but you can get this Althea 'Born This Way' beauty box for only RM 116.00. The price is unbelievable and it's really worth it. Unfortunately, it is out of stock now. Do look out for the next Althea beauty box with different beauty products and grab it fast. 

Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam

This Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam is enriched with squeezed green tea from Jeju Island and has a very nice green tea smell which I like. This is very suitable for oily skin people like me. 


Directions
Squeeze an appropriate amount onto hands and lather. Then massage over face and rinse with warm water. 


My face with the Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam on it

After washing my face with Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam, I feel my face much cleaner and fresher. My skin feels moisturized and not dry at all. I would recommend this to all my friends because it is suitable for me and I love it.

Beuins Nutrient Emulsion Skin

This Beuins Nutrient Emulsion Skin is highly concentrated emulsion + toner to provide a healthy skin base by improving skin elasticity and moisture. 



Directions
Pump out onto hand and apply evenly on entire face after washing face. To be used in the morning and at night. 



It has a very nice scent and is very waterly. You can see that it flows on my hands easily after pumping it out. After applying this on my face, I feel that my face is a little sticky which I do not really like but the ingredients of this Beuins Nutrient Emulsion Skin is supposed to improve wrinkles and whiten skin. So a little sticky feeling will not stop me from using it. Hope my wrinkles can be less and I can have fairer skin.

3CE Back To Baby Pore Velvet Primer

This 3CE Back To Baby Pore Velvet Primer reduces the appearance of pores and blemishes. It covers skin irregularities and makes a soft skin texture ready for foundation and other makeups. 



Directions
Apply a fine layer on face before using foundation.

I like this very much because it covers my blemishes and wrinkles. It drys up very fast and eliminates excess oil which is suitable for my oily skin. It brightens my skin so I look fairer and more radiant. I noticed my foundation last longer even after I sweat.

Max Clinic Catrin Natural 100 Mineral Sunkill RX

If you are worried about the harmful UV rays, you need Max Clinic Catrin Natural 100 Mineral Sunkill RX. This is silky smooth powder sunblock that can be applied easily and leaves a layer of protection on skin. This is mineral powder with SPF 46 PA+++ protection.




Directions
Open the cover and turn if over, use puff to tap on face or body. There is an opening for the powder to go through.



I really love this because it's non greasy like some sunblock lotions. I seldom use sunblock lotions because I am allergic to some. This leaves my skin feeling soft, dry and smooth. It is chemical free and preservative free. This is made from extracted natural ingredients and is the best sunblock protection I have come across. I would surely recommend this to all my friends and family.

Aritaum Mono Eyes Eyeshadow

Aritaum Mono Eyes Eyeshadow is single individual eyeshadow that comes in a cute, round, black plastic container. It is small, light weight and easy to carry.



Directions
You can use your finger or a small brush to apply on your eye lids. 


This pinky coral color is really light color and natural. I applied a few layers to get this look. It is very powdery, so when you apply, make sure it doesn't get onto your eye lashes. You can use it as a blusher if you want.

Etude House Dear Darling Ice-Cream Water Gel Tint (Watermelon Red)

When I first saw this, it caught my attention because it was so cute. It comes in 5 different shades and the one I have is the Watermelon Red color. 




Directions
Turn the part that looks like the popsicle stick to open it and apply onto lips by swiping it gently. 



I like this color very much and the texture is very moist. It has a very nice sweet smell too. I was surprised that the color was very long lasting. My lips did not feel dry and this is great for those with dry lips.

Pure Smile Art Point Pack

Pure Smile Art Point Pack has 2 sheets of very cute and colorful fruit face masks. It has collagen, hyaluronic acid, placental extract. It smells very sweet and fruity. I love the sweet fruity smell very much and it makes me feel fresh. This is something fun you can play with a friend.




Directions
Take out the mask sheet from the pack, peel out the fruit shapes and apply on the parts where you want to moisturize. Leave it on for 5-10 minutes.






This is very fun for taking cute photos and getting your face moisturized at the same time. Since it comes in 2 sheets, you can share it with a friend. I really like the sweet smell. I will definitely get more to use.

Dr. Mind Apot Red Mask

The Dr. Mind Apot Red Mask was a free gift in this Althea 'Born This Way' Beauty Box. 
This is great for skin relaxing and it helps to balance the skin oil to ensure healthy skin.



I really love this Althea 'Born This Way' Beauty Box. I had a lot of fun trying out these beauty products. Hope you enjoyed reading my review and make sure you check out Althea products, on their WEBSITE , FACEBOOK or INSTAGRAM
