Dating 101:Althea Romantic Date Box|Unboxing+First Impression Review



Hi loves! I'm back again and very excited to share to you my unboxing and first impression review of Althea Romantic Date Box. It's spring season now in Korea which is a time for flowers to bloom and going outdoors to enjoy it's beautiful sceneries. While it's summer here in Philippines there's so much fun and out of town trips. Spring or summer it's the best time for dating and romantic getaways. That's why Althea released​ there Romantic Date Box because it's the season of LOVE!💕


Anyways,if you're​ asking​ me if what's Althea Beauty Box? It is Althea's line of limited edition boxes especially curated by there fairy team in Seoul, they release 2-3 themed box every month  contains 6-12 full-size items inside. They sell it so fast and it's very unlikely to be restock again so better grab it as soon as you can if you like there feature themed box (Check there Limited Edition Boxes here). Unlike subscription boxes you don't need to pay monthly and get products that you really don't need. You will also get the opportunity to try K-beauty products in one box and in cheaper price (Click here to learn more about the box). I remember when they released there Pore Care Box it turns me upside down cause it's already sold out when I had the money to buy, that feels so sad 😥! Anyways let's move on 😆


Recently, Ms.Tammy Lim of Althea emailed me if I would like to review there Romantic Date Box and use it for my date *giggles, I was one of the bloggers​ who signed up to review there Althea Boxes and I was so excited and say yes on her email, Althea Korea is indeed very generous to there fans. She ordered this box for me on 3rd day of April(Monday) and it arrived on my doorstep on 10th day of April. The transaction was so fast considering the 10-15 working days delivery promise of Althea and it comes from South Korea.

Let's open the box 😃


Tadah! the products are all neatly and well wrapped in bubble wraps to protect it from bumps and damages. The products are all in good condition when I check them out. Yay! Can't wait to try 'em all😍




DATING 101


When go dating Althea knows what we need my loves. This Romantic Date Box has 8 full size products for our beauty preparation. I'm not a pro in terms of dating so this Romantic Date Box will be our best guide, okay?😉


Here's what we need to do pretty:


Nature Republic Rose Petal Real Fresh Wash-off Mask
100ml



The very first step to prep our skin before dating is to slather a wash-off mask pack on our face. This wash-off​ mask has 6,000 ppm of French 🌹 rose powder and 10,000 ppm of damask 🌹 rose water to hydrate and soothe our dull and irritated skin.


The jar is made of glass which is slightly heavy,and it has a plastic sealant inside to prevent the wash-off mask from evaporating.


I was amazed
by the look and texture of this wash-off mask,I was expecting a cream type wash-off mask but this one has a brown viscous texture with real rose 🌹 petals? Daebak! It looks luxurious and it smells real roses too. 


Direction: After cleansing,gently apply on the face avoiding the eye area. Leave it on for 5-10 minutes,and then rinse off with lukewarm water.

Result: My skin instantly feels soft and smooth. It also minimizes the appearance of my pimples and redness. This wash-off mask really pampers my skin.
Full details is here



Tony Moly Face Mix Primer Color Cushion
#01Lavender 


First impression is very important, we don't want to show our skin imperfections to our date right? Especially if it's the first date, as the saying goes "first impressions last".
Lavender shade corrects dull and sallow skintone makes skin instantly bright. This color correcting primer also gives coverage to uneven skin for an instant clear looking skin.

The cushion is in minimalist design and very lightweight perfect to bring anywhere. It has SPF 50+ PA++++ for sun protection, that perfectly suited for this hot and humid climate. It comes with a standard type of puff.



Honestly, it was my first time that I will try a lavender color corrector primer in my whole life so I'm curious of what magic it gives to my skin.😏


Direction:Take an appropriate amount of the base with the puff and gently tap on the whole face.


Please tap the cushion very very light cause this stuff contains lots of primer inside than ordinary cushions. I got my puff loaded with lots of primer with just a single tap 😂.

This primer has a sheer coverage when use lightly but can be buildable too and leaves a dewy finish. It indeed brightens up my skin under my BB Cushion and prevent it to oxidized. It also makes makeup long lasting so we don't need to retouch during our date. 



Hope Girl Magic Long Long Lash Mascara
10ml



Long,full and curly lashes is a must to have that alluring aura while looking on each others eyes. Remember "eyes are the window to our soul and the doorway to our heart"so better make your lashes ready too.


I like it's pink and blue matte packaging, it's so cute and very girly. The design makes me want to use it everyday. Magic Lash Mascara is for lash lengthening and curling.


Oh what's this?It has a tiny bits of ...lashes?
They call it Natural Cellulose Fibers that I think will act as extension to our eye lashes to make it longer and fuller. It's the first time that I encounter this kind of mascara.
They said it's highly recommended for those who had a scarce,short,drippy and weak lashes.

Direction:After using eye curler, apply to eyelashes in zigzag motions.


Result: Magic Lash mascara is comfortable to wear,holds curl ,makes lashes long and doesn't clump at all. My lashes look natural if it only apply once and looks bolder after three application. I think it's like you're wearing a falsies with this mascara. It also easy to remove with warm water perfect for a lazy night. It's now my favorite mascara.😍



Aritaum Sugarball Blusher
 #4 Juicy Peach


I really love to own one of Aritaum Sugarball Cushion Blusher cause it's colors are to die for and I'm very lucky that it's one of the items in Romantic Date Box.

 Blush-on is important to makes us look lively and blooming, so don't forget to wear it on your date.


Sugarball Cushion Cheek Color is very handy and pocket friendly. It's surprisingly a creamy type cheek color inside with it's mini puff. 😮Cushions that I encountered​ are all soak in sponge you know.

Direction:Pat the right amount of cheek color into the apples of your cheeks and blend well.


 Isn't this shade so pretty and juicy? OMG I fell in love with it at first tap. It's a warm orangey-pink shade that glows naturally. It fits​ nicely on my skin and doesn't look patchy even when layered with powder. It's surprisingly weightless and not greasy even though it's a cream type blusher. It has a pretty light scent when you sniff it on the palette but the scent disappears once you apply it.

Chica Y Chico Mat Fix Liquid Lipstick
#03 Josephine


Mat Fix Liquid Lipstick in Josephine is a perfect MLBB shade that definitely makes your pout looks kissable and sexy, makes him droll on your date *giggles.


I love it's wand applicator cause it's easy to maneuver when applying lipcolor. The packaging is also pocket friendly perfect to bring with you all the time.

Direction:Apply in the center of your lips and smudge, you'll have the perfect natural gradation look. When fill the lips along the lip line with the tint, you'll have the fully covered look.


It's texture is creamy and velvety liquid that's​ pigmented and lightly scented (you may or may not notice it). The shade is milky pinkish peach nude that looks so natural and pretty. What I love about this lipstick is it's ultra lightweight and not tacky at all.


It has semi-matte finish but becomes truly matte if you blot it with tissue. Just don't forget to exfoliate and moisturize your lips beforehand​ 'coz this might accentuate lines of dry lips.



Calmia Perfume in Cherry Blossom Hand Cream 50g


We should get ready for a "holding hands" moment so we should moisturize and pamper our hands prior to our date to make it soft and smooth.



It is a hand cream that has a whitening, wrinkle care and moisturizing benefits.
The tube packaging of this hand cream is so feminine and sleek.


Direction:Put an adequate amount of cream on hand and softly spread it on back of your hand.

Result:The cream is not sticky nor greasy and feels warm on my hands. It's very moisturizing like an emollient cream. It's smells flowery and sweet but doesn't overwhelming. I particularly don't like scented products but I love the scent of this one.


With Shyan Nail Lacquer
(colors randomly given) 
Modern Red 15ml


Putting a nail polish will accentuates your hands more, makes it look classy for your date.
I got the Modern Red shade in my box, it's a bold red brown color reminds me of Pantone Color Marsala. 


 Opps! Please excuse my manicure skills and my hairy hand 😅. 

Direction:Clean and shape your nails, prep it with base coat and let it dry. Paint the right amount of the nail polish from base of your nails to tips,let it dry.

Result:This Modern Red shade made my hands look fairer. I find this nail polish easy to dry and leaves a shiny finish even without the aid of a top coat.




Its Skin Mangowhite Body Mist 150ml


The final touch up to our date! We should smell fresh and great during our date, spray some body mist so that he will always remember your scent.

Mangowhite Body Mist has a smell of fresh fruity scent. If you're​ like me who doesn't want strong fragrances like perfumes, body mist might be for you. The scent is only mild yet irresistible you can carry it anywhere and spray it when you wanted​ to.

Direction: After taking a shower spray it anywhere you want. It can be spray on your hair, body and clothes.



Final Thoughts

I think Romantic Date Box are not only useful for dating but also for my everyday beauty routine that why I'm fallen in love with this box.😍 It's consist of two skincare products, four makeup products, a nail polish and a body mist. Most of the products are in a travel friendly packaging suited to bring in your purse for retouching. The box is worth P5820 but you can get it from Althea Korea for only P1320 how sweet is that! If you also love this box, grab this now before it's all gone.

That's all for today loves, best luck for your coming dates. A special lots of thanks to Ms.Tammy Lim and Althea Korea for this opportunity.😄

🐣Happy Easter!🐇
