Sociolla Box March 2016 - Unboxing & Review

I have yet another unboxing of Sociolla Box!

Here's the unboxing video that I uploaded in my Bahasa channel (Yup, I have bahasa channel now!):


Here's the LINK (*) if you want to subscribe, and as always, here's the breakdown of everything that is in the box.

My Beauty Diary Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask
Retail Price: Rp 29,900.00 (single sachet)/Rp 125,000.00 (box-5pcs)

Okay, if you're a mask junkie like me, you're probably already familiar with this particular brand of sheet mask. This brand has been raved about by many. I've tried some variant from this brand as well and I find them to be good, so I'm happy to get this.

Polka Matteness Lip Lacquer in "Maracass"
Retail Price: Rp 185,000.00

This is probably the best item I've ever gotten from Sociolla Box so far (imo). Saying that I love matte liquid lipstick is probably an understatement, as I find matte liquid lipstick to be the best lip product ever. Serious. So this product definitely hits the spot for me. It's also in my favorite lip color, which is nude (I know, I'm so boring lol). You can see the swatch of this liquid lippie goodness in my unboxing video above.

Nuxe Prodigieux Le Parfume
Retail Price: Rp 750,000.00 (100 ml)
In the Box: Rp 7,500.00 (1 ml)

Babor Cleansing Gel & Toning
Retail Price: Rp 350,000.00 (200 ml)
In the Box: Not sure how many ml in the sachet, but let just say 3 ml -> Rp 5,250.00

Okay, let me explain myself. In the video, I know it looks like I have some kind of vendetta against sachet samples lol, but I really don't. I don't mind getting sachet samples, so long as they are counted as a "bonus" item (like Lolabox did).

Since Sociolla promises 4-5 items, these sachet samples are clearly included as this month's items, and that is just a bit upsetting, given you can get samples like this easily from BA without the need to subscribe to something. I don't feel it really worth my money to get samples like this, which to me, seems just like a filler item to fulfil the "4-5 items" that they promised. But maybe that's just me.


Overall
The Box Price: Rp 450,000.00 (3 months subscriptions)/Rp 850,000.00 (6 months subscriptions)/Rp 1,650,000.00 (12 months subscriptions)
The Box Value: Rp 227,650.00


Does the box have higher value than what you paid for? Yes, of course. Still, this box is a hit and a miss for me. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the lip lacquer, and I like the mask just enough. However, I am a bit disappointed that they would count sachet samples as its own item (? I don't know how to explain, but I hope you get my point), which to me just seems like a filler. You definitely pay less for all these items compare to if you were to buy them retail, I'll give you that, but isn't that a given for a subscription service? Lol, I think I have more points, but I'll save it for next month's unboxing when I'll be deciding whether to continue to subscribe or not.

Meanwhile, if you're interested to try it yourself, here's the LINK (*). It's quite fun getting package every single month, kinda like a birthday :)
