This company have popped up on my Facebook feed many a time, and every time I see it, it gets a little more tempting to dive right in and subscribe.
I've been on the lookout for a decent sub box or two, and considering my absolute love for Japanese and Korean beauty products, I've been scouting out for those in particular. Now I'm not usually keen on Facebook tailoring ads for me based on my browsing history, but honestly this time it did me a favour!
NoMakeNoLife is a $29.99 (roughly £25), free worldwide shipping Japanese beauty subscription box. Boasting 5-7 full-sized beauty items per box, I'd say the price is actually very decent.
NMNL is run by "...a small group of globally minded tokyoites in our 20s and 30s with vested
interest in the latest trends and anything beauty related." They have "extensive experience in the beauty industry" and are located right in the heart of Tokyo. I'm already hooked!
The website is beautifully put together, and has such a fun, youthful charm, all the while staying professional and informative. My favourite section is the photographs of "the crew". It's my kinda company!
Right now, as they're a new sub service, they're offering a whopping 30% off your first box with a code they display plainly at the head of the site. The code is only valid until 31/01/17, but that still gives you plenty of time to sign up - I know I will!
Also, quick note! Their contact email address is weloveyou@nomakenolife.com - how cute is that?!

Hold the phone!
So hi guys, haven't been here in a while! But listen, I'm gonna get straight down to it.
I've been really upping my game when it comes to the consumption of magazines. And I don't mean the trashy gossip mags (though each to their own!), I'm seriously loving Good Housekeeping at the moment. While there's nothing better than curling up on the sofa with a cuppa and a physical copy balanced on your lap, I can never resist when one of their articles pops up on my Facebook feed.
Here comes the fun part.
I came across an interesting post this evening, and it excited me so much that I had to share it. This Good Housekeeping article is mainly about the proper way in which to apply your beauty products, but one quote captured my interest the most:
"And with skin essences soon to enter the beauty arena thanks to Korean rituals, product layering is only set to get even more confusing."

HOLD. THE. FRICKIN. PHONE.
I can only assume that the above statement means that more Korean beauty products will be hitting the shops at some point soon!
Now it's not difficult to get hold of some Korean holy grails in the UK, but the shipping times from my favourite store on eBay are (justifiably) ridiculous.
I can't wait until Etude House, TonyMoly, Skinfood... all the best Korean brands are available in the UK!
Now we do have one UK based website that sells Korean and Japanese beauty products - Lunatu - though they don't always have the greatest selection.
What do you guys think?
