Guess who is super duper late again on unboxing? MEEEEE. In my defence though, my boyfriend was in t he hospital, my little doggie had some body problems, i got into a car accident and now on top of everything, my boyfriend's family member pasted away. I am not lying. I swear.... This seriously is the worst month ever. Please becareful out there, my lovely friends.
But as always, here is the usual unboxing. But now with better lighting :D. YEY. I'm still working on getting better with my photos, so hopefully I can learn faster. Tell me if you like the change! Or you like the organic, crappy lighting ones from before XDDD.

Yey! Finally a decent looking photo of the card that you can kind of read the text! And it is English. I recommend you guys not to throw this away. I always go back and refer to it.
Are you guys excited? I bought this box because i got the first edition of the pore edition box, and I thought it would be a great match. And not to mention, the fragrance of this box can not be ignored! It smells soooooooo good. I don't know what it is, but it smells like clean, skincare floral, but slightly sweet scent. I can't stop smelling the paper HAHA.
Everything that came inside the box. I had such a hard time trying to fit this into the light box, my light box is too small >_>.
The first product(s) are Migabee Hot and Cool pore care set retailing for $43 and contains 30 mL (for step one and two) and 70 mL (for step three). This is a full sized product. The tubes measures 2.5 cm x 12 cm and the bottle measures 3.5 cm x 13 cm. I'm not going to open it just yet, but I will review it when I do :).
I saw this as the spoiler and was super excited, but when I went to open the box, I was surprised the set was so tiny. I don't know why but I had the impression that it would be a big bottle and squeeze tube, but I am also glad that it isn't big since I have so much products I have to get through... LIke no joke. I can't wait to try this set since I can use the pore cleaning on my annoying strawberry nose. YOU WILL DIE BLACKHEADS THAT REGENERATE WAY TO FAST.
Product description:
Step 1 Hot pore peeling system: Opens up clogged pores by heating up the surface of the skin with pepper extract infusions, and adds steam deep into the pores for effective surface skin exfoliation.
Step 2 Cooling mask: This multi-function, multi purpose mask/ cleanser tightens enlarged pores and soothes irritated skin. When used as a facial cleanser, it removes oil, dirt, and other impurities from deep within the pores.
Step 3 peppermint witchhazel mist: Spritz your way to blackhead relief! Infused with a powerful blend of peppermint and witch hazel, this mist will refine pores and leave skin with an ultra-clean sensation!
How to use:
Step 1) Spread the hot pore peeling system evenly over your face, avoiding the eye and mouth areas. Gently massage with your finger tips and peel away after 10-20 minutes.
Step 2) Tighten back up the pores by applying the cooling mask clean 3 in 1 evenly over your face. Gently scrub away with lukewarm water 1-3 minutes and rinse off with cold water.
Step 3) Spray the mist over your face whenever skin feels dehydrated or irritated.
The second product is Nella Fantasia Pore control astringent gel retailing for $34 and contains 180 mL. This is a full sized product. The bottle measures 5 cm x 17 cm and smell-o-scale= 7/10 and the fragrance smells like clean, soapy floral scent. I believe this is the scent that intoxicated the whole box, make it smell super duper good. I can't stop smelling it :).
I'm surprised to see this brand again because we got that jelly pong blackhead product in the pore edition, so I'm glad to see that I can use this product in conjecture with the nose scrub thing :). Yey for more Nella Fantasia. I haven't heard too much from this brand so its nice to get another product from this brand.
Product description:
This pore control astringent gel is an all-in-one pore toning gel formulated to control excess oil, sebum, and blackheads by refining and tightening enlarged pores.
How to use:
Apply the gel evenly over your face and let it soak in. Store it in a refrigeration for better results.
The third product is ProYou pore control foam deep cleanser retailing for $34 and contains 100 mL. This is a full sized product measuring at 4 cm x 15 cm. Again, not going to open this just yet because I'm still using two other cleansers and trying to finish it before I try anything else. I wish skincare products can be used up faster so I can try more products >_>. Dang it.
I never really have high hopes for cleansers that claim to do things. All i look for in my cleanser is to clean my face, without stripping my naturally oils and make my face even drier. But if this product promises what it can do, then I will be super happy!
Product description:
An invigorating cleanser that contains a powerful blend of pore refining ingredients to remove impurities and blackheads without drying or irritating the skin. The pore control foam deep cleanser and purify the pore while soothing the skin.
How to use:
Spread the cleanser thinly over your face and wait until oxygen bubbles start to bubble up. Gently massage with your fingers and rinse off with lukewarm water.
The fifth product is Dermahouse deep cleansing cream retailing for $18 and contains 150 mL. This is a full sized product measuring 4.5 cm x 17 cm.
I'm glad I am getting another cleanser, but that means I would have to wash my face about five times a day to get through all the cleansers I have collected LOL. Oh dear... this memebox addiction is getting a bit too serious.
Does this cleanser break down make up :O. Ohhhh~~~ (commenting this after I read the how to use). I'll be pretty happy if it does :D. I love my Michael todd cleanser since it does everything in one, getting rid of make up and cleaning my skin, but it is slightly inconvenient since you can only buy it online. Hopefully this does get rid of make up :3.
Product description:

The second to last product is Cheek room pore brush retailing for $36 (WHAT?!? your joking right...) and this is a full sized product. the brush measures 7 cm in length and 5 cm in diameter. The bristles measures 2.5 cm.
I have seen this brush on the memeshop and i believe in another memebox? I might have mistaken , but I remember it being only about $8 so the retail price of $36 shocks me. I would never ever pay that much for a simple brush that you can easily get on ebay for $3 :S. I will have to compare this to the clarisonic, but I do not believe there would be much to compare since clarisonic holds a dear spot in my heart ;).
Product description:
Over 310 thousand fine bristles thinner than 0.045 mm gently yet effectively clear away trapper oil, dirt, and other impurities from pores, leaving skin refreshing clean, blackhead-free, and ultra smooth!
How to use:
Gently massage the pore brush onto skin after cleansing foam application. Make sure to clean the brush thoroughly after use and hang it to dry.
The last product is Purederm nose pore strips charcoal retailing for $6 with 6 strips in a box. I'm not sure why there is no box that came with it, just a plastic baggie. Maybe they ran out of room in the box haha.
Nose strips really are not my favorite thing to use. Maybe times I'm like "okay cool, let's use a nose strip today to get rid of my blackheads." So I go, wash my face, stick this on, let it dry and risk all that pain and boom. Guess what.... THERE'S NOTHING ON THERE. I ripped off my skin, made my eyes tear up from the pain and there is absolutely nothing on the strip. Its so annoying!! I pledge to never use nose strips, especially hearing that it isn't good for your nose anyways. That's good news for me since I'd rather just push them out. Anyways, most likely I will not be using this :S. I'd also really like to see other brands of korean nose strips other then purederma, this is about the fifth time they have put it in our boxes >_>.
Product description:
This nose pore strips charcoal is a one-stype pore care treatment speciffically designed to unclog excess blackheads, whiteheads, dirty and oil piled up in your pores. You'll feel a dramatic difference after just one use.
How to use:
Throughly wet your nose with water first, because the strip may not stick if nose is too dry. Apply the strip to moistened nose area with the shiny side facing your skin. Press down and smooth out air bubbles. Let the strip dry for 10-15 minutes. Then, when the strip dried, slowly and carefully peel off the strip starting from the edges. Rinse off any residues with water.

Overall I really like this box. I wasn`t expecting too much but just products to clean my blackheads and hopefully gradually get rid of them. I`m super happy that there are two cleansers, a cool three step kit and the nella fantasia pore control gel. I`m also super excited for the brush. I have bought the face brush from the face shop but that brush actually makes my skin hurt, I hate it. I think this one will be super easy to use and it will not hurt since it is super soft. Not so excited about the nose strips since I do not like to use them, they hurt so much!! I give this box a 4.75 stars/5 stars :). Love!
