Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box | AIMEE GUERRERO

Exclusive BDJ Box
Shiseido Skin Care Special
August 2013

And finally it has arrived! After days of waiting it's finally here on my mailbox! As predicted, this month's box is all about skin care. What I didn't expect was it to be an exclusive box!

This month they featured SHISEIDO's IBUKI Skin Care line.

So what's inside our skin care box?

Yep! Full of sample sized skin care products from Shiseido.

Personally I haven't tried Shiseido yet, so I have no idea how they will work with my skin which is "oily and sensitive". Another reason for this is that Shiseido is quite expensive.

SO, thank you BDJ Box for allowing me to try them out even at a sample size. Well, Shiseido items will cost you more that Php 1k per item. So I'm really curious on the value of this box. Is it worth it?

But before that, let's check out the contents.

What's Inside?

Shiseido's IBUKI range was designed with exclusive Shape Memorizing cell Technology. It's 3-part action of clearing our dead skin cells, stimulating the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor and building back the inner skin membrane, returns cells to their ideal condition and slows down future shrinkage, to boost skin's resistance. The result is smooth, beautiful skin that glows with radiance and freshness.

1. Shiseido IBUKI Gentle Cleanser 30ml - Full Size 125ml | Php 1,495

For skin feeling refreshed and silky smooth to the touch, use this extra gentle cleanser everyday. It lathers quickly into a rich foam and effectively cleans your skin while maintaining its ideal moisture balance.

2. Shiseido IBUKI Softening Concentrate 15ml - Full Size 75ml | Php 1,600

A concentrate softener that penetrates quickly and deeply to build the skin's resistance by filling it with moisture. Prep your skin with this before applying moisturizer to reap the full benefits and get glowing skin.

3. Shiseido IBUKI Purifying Cleanser 5ml - Full Size 125ml | Php 1,495

A purifying cleanser that contains micro-granules for a gentle exfoliating effect, removing harmful excess sebum and impurities without stripping away skin's essential moisture. Best used ONCE A WEEK.

4. Shiseido IBUKI Eye Correcting Cream 2ml - Full Size 15ml | Php 1,800

This coold, comforting eye cream diminishes the appearance of dark circles, puffiness and fine lines. Gently pat under your eyes and see them become more vibrant.

5. Shiseido IBUKI Refining Moisturizer Enriched 10ml - Full Size 75ml | Php 1,950

This is a multi-functional moisturizer that improves visible pores, breakouts and skin roughness caused by dryness, resulting in a smoother and more refined skin texture. Best used AT NIGHT.

6. Shiseido Bio Performance Advanced Super Revitalizer Cream 7ml - Full Size 50ml | Php 5,500

A luxurious (I bet), highly concentrated skin supplement lines, roughness, dryness, and other signs of premature aging while energizing and rehydrating skin

7. Vouchers (FREE)

Three awesome treat from Shiseido a.) Free Quick Facial b.) Php 500 Off c.) Free Shiseido Ibuki Gentle Cleanser or Purifying Cleanser

VERDICT

Overall it was an awesome package given that all items were "EXPENSIVE" given that nothing has a full size that costs less than Php 1,000. But compared to BDJ's previous boxes, in this box, NONE was given in FULL SIZE. It's a bit dissapointing. But well, we can always check if this box is worth it (value wise).

(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Gentle Cleanser 30ml | Php 358.80
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Softening Concentrate 15ml | Php 320
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Purifying Cleanser 5ml | Php 59.80
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Eye Correcting Cream 2ml | Php 240
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Refining Moisturizer Enriched 10ml | Php 260
(Sample) Shiseido Bio Performance Advanced Super Revitalizer Cream 7ml | Php 770

Total Items Cost
Samples + Vouchers = Php 2,008.6

BDJ Box Cost
Php 580

TOTAL SAVINGS = Php 1,428.6

The box really has quality items in it. Though everything was given as SAMPLES. A little frustrating. I hope they will last long enough! Because, these items are really expensive. Hoping for a better September Box. As I've said in my other unboxing blogs, I'm not really a "skin-care" fan.

So what do you think?
