[Review] MEMEBOX - I'M TOP COAT (#TC002 MATTE)
Hello everyone! :)
Let's end the month with something fun and chic! :D
 |
| Memebox's I'M MEME I'M Top Coat (#TC002 Matte Top Coat) | 아임 매트 탑 코트 | 10ml |
Can't catch up with the matte nail trend??
Try I'M MEME I'M Top Coat in the code #TC002 Matte Finish.
This is a magical ingredient to make all your nail collection into matte finish!
What are you waiting for? :D
Product Breakdown

| source: MEMEBOX |
Its product description is rather straightforward.
I’M MEME Matte Top Coat, unlike other ordinary top coat, it can literally turn your regular nail polish to a complete matte-finish, providing a leather-like look and texture! Classy hmm.

| source : MEMEBOX |
Formulated with Vitamins A, B, C, Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil, this matte top coat is able to protect and keep your nails healthy and strong.
With advanced technology, this matte top coat actually dries fast with a vivid color expression. Besides, it is especially formulated to be less prone to nail chipping and long lasting than regular top coats.
To use, simply apply evenly over your nail polish and let dry for about 5 - 10 minutes.
Here I'm using a variety of colors from different brands: maroon/red + orange + green from MEMEBOX PONY Collection; yellow from The Face Shop; blue from Holika Holika.

I noticed the Matte Top Coat works better for plain color, without glitter base; for instance, blue, yellow and orange.
Nevertheless, it does toned down the shiny effect for both green and red (although the camera couldn't capture it).
I am still amazed with this "matte top coat" idea until now, as I am writing this post. What a brilliant idea! Now everybody can achieved that chic matte manicure everywhere and anytime!
Plus, this product is retail at a very affordable price.
I bought it from Hermo last year at RM9.90. (it's a steal-deal, I knowww :p)
p/s: It's been awhile since I play with my nail lacquer collection... I used to love them during high school and university... Somehow I have gave up too much interest since started to work. Hmm...
**********************************************************************
Rating: 5/5
Recommend: It does what it claims and worth the price.
Repurchase: Not so soon since one bottle can goes a long way.
For your reference.

[Review] PONY EFFECT - Effect Nail Lacquer #Money Power
Hello everyone! :)
Finally I'm back with a nail lacquer review!
I'm thrilled to be able to get hands on PONY EFFECT since I really enjoy watching veteran K-Beauty Youtuber Pony's makeup tutorials. Yes, she has launched a product line under MEMEBOX and they are pretty cool stuffs... Only thing is the price (omo).
Yeah, frankly speaking, because I ain't got much extra money to spend, I decided on getting this cool and furious green nail lacquer (just to show off a bit lol XD nahhh). Don't get me wrong, they are actually pretty cool in real.
Not only its box packaging is in shining rose gold, but its cap too. Love it. The bottle itself is made of solid glass.
I'm quite surprise, in fact, 15ml is such a huge amount for nail lacquer. I never have anything like that before.
I really appreciate the little touch from Pony, such as the lightning sign on top of the cap and the side of the bottle.
And you can see the product details (Company name, manufacture country, lot number, expiry date and etc.) on the bottom.
Nothing special of its application brush. You can find this kind of flat brush in most nail lacquers.
As soon as I got the product, I painted my nails to celebrate Christmas. Yes, if you follow me on Instagram, you would saw me sharing it last month.
The nail lacquer texture might be a little too watery for now, but not a big deal, as it will eventually thickens.
This green shade, I would say, has quite a Christmas vibe in it. Personally, I am not a big fan of green, but interestingly this is kind of green that I would love to wear, in full solid color. It gives people an impression of bold and rich, or if not less, courageous.
To me, its packaging is really cute (looks pretty cool on the shelf too) and I didn't regret of purchasing it. But overall, I would say, it is a nail lacquer slightly above average.
So what do you think? To buy, yay or nay? :D
This product is now available on Hermo.

| MEMEBOX X HERMO Holiday Edition PONY Nail Collection |
People who knows me personally can totally tell that I am a BIG FAN of nail polish/lacquer. Well, here we are, a review on a new nail lacquer collection which I have added - MEMEBOX X PONY!
For you who is not quite familiar with PONY, she is a Korean YouTuber whom is famous for self-taught makeup tutorials, hottest K-beauty trends and beauty tips (check out her YouTube channel : Pony's Beauty Diary). She collaborated with MEMEBOX and introduced a product line exclusively inspired and designated by her whereby it aims for beginner-friendly yet glamorous. Side notes, she is 2NE1 CL's exclusive makeup artist at the moment. (Geeeee, you can surely tell how good she is)
As the title reads, you can tell that I bought them from Hermo.my. They were having a Christmas sale then and this collection was introduced. Hermo actually sells them individually, but made a customized-collection for Christmas : 4 x PONY MEMEBOX nail lacquers (4 x 10 ml) plus 1 x I'M NAIL REMOVER (100 ml) for RM59.00/set. (you will find their original price as you read)
 |
| Left to right: 01. Meteor Shower #02 02. Worm Hole #01 03. Eclipse #04 04. My Planet #03 |
 |
| A black label which one end sticks on the bottle cap and the other on the body. A design to ensure you are the first to open the bottle. |
Look at all these pretty colors. Bold and attractive. Most of all, they all fit the Christmas theme perfectly. Well, don't worry that you may only get the chance to wear it during Christmas month, with some magical mix and match, they could turn out to be very wearable even if it's not festive days.
Here I am going to show two of my mix and match results inspired by PONY herself \\^.^//
 |
| Worm Hole #01 + My Planet #03 |
 |
| Meteor Shower #02 + Eclipse #04 |
Green is never my favourite, but My Planet #03 is such a glamorous creamy color by its own. (sorry, guess it's not quite visible in my photo above)
Talking about the nail polish remover, is it me or do you felt the same that they might just missed out a word for the product name??? Shouldn't be it called "I'M NAIL POLISH REMOVER"??? I don't think that anyone would actually like to remove their nails, but nail polish would be acceptable :p As design per say, I find it is quite interesting to name products after "I'M" something something. For example, "I'M TOOTHPASTE" or something else XD
 |
| MEMEBOX's I'M NAIL REMOVER |
And here we have "I'M NAIL REMOVER". It has a VERY strong sweet strawberry scent, quite pleasant anyway. I would say, it is similar to any average nail polish remover you can find in beauty stores out there. In terms of usability, it is quite handy while removing plain nail lacquer; however, I still struggles while removing nail lacquers that contains particles, such as Worm Hole #01 and Meteor Shower #02. Hermo priced it RM25.90/bottle before any discount, yet it can be sold at price as low as RM8.00/bottle during promotional seasons. (Goshhh crazy pricing)
What are you waiting for? Brighten up your day and sends off Monday blues by coloring your nails today! :)
