“Cute skincare and make up product”

Julia W.

The box includes a selection of Japanese and Korean skincare as well as makeup products. It's really cute and innovative, worth the price.

Top Critical Review

“Another overpriced beauty box.”

Cata G.
12/20/19

I'm just 3 months in my 6 month subscription, but i'm disappointed. The site said you're getting 8-9 full sized beauty products in one box, but so far i've gotten just 8 each time, and that's if you consider 1 hair tie or some cotton pads a "full-sized" beauty item worth 4$. If you're ok with such uninspired and low-value items and *really* into sheet masks, you might like it. One thing they do have going for them is the fast shipping. Not their fault in any way, but you should also know that in the EU you'll probably also have to pay a tax for this box.

The variety that this box offers is awesome. Some of the items do get repeated but it's still always different such as the unique face masks that come in every box. Many of the products that I use, I have discovered through this box and also the unique contests and giveaways that they hold. As a bonus, following them on social media has also been rewarding. The price is reasonable too and I think anyone interested should try it at least once! My only concern would be the extremely long shipping time. Sometimes I wonder if my box will ever come, but I'm used to that now since I know it takes slightly over a month.

Such a cute subscription box! I love how all the products are things that would be difficult for me to find here because I get to try something new! I also like that in their monthly booklet it tells you if it's from Japan or Korea. But my favorite thing about this monthly box is the cute themes they pick! It's a great value and a nice way to treat yourself to some self care and beauty products that you won't find on your local store shelves, I'll be ordering again :)

Tip for consumers:
Make sure you log your streak code once you get your box!

I just received my box this morning and I have to say how cute it is. The products are high quality and the adorable packaging is the icing on the cake. As with the previous box delivery was fast and trackable and came on time. Would recommend to anyone who loves beauty products or wants a nice treat for them selves

Like the color pink and cherry blossoms? Then you'll love this box! It's entirely sakura themed and contains items from makeup, skincare, bath time favorites and two beauty items! My favorite was the Hello Kitty dark nude lipstick but also the Kitty Ears Headband :)

I love nomakenolife sub box :) I've been a subscriber since I first saw the box a couple of years ago. You get a generous number of Japanese ( and now Korean as well) beauty products and tools along with a booklet explaining proper use of the items. Often there are little stories about the historical and cultural importance of ingredients and there are ALWAYS competitions to win more products. I have adapted many items into my daily skin/body/Haircare and make up routines. The mods of the Facebook page are very involved in their community and fun to chat to. The box itself is very sturdy- I've Only has one product damaged and that was clearly a courier issue, but they still replaced the item( it was a pack of ten sheet masks)

It is clearly the best to me. I love how in each box we get facial products like face masks and cleansings. I like how we also get lip creams or hand creams. It just an excellent box that has many different good helpful products for every part of a body. They have stuff for the hair, face, feet, body wash, acne and more.

The box arrived after almost two months but it was worth the wait! I was really excited to get it from the post office. The box is so cute. Nicely packed, with a pink paper inside. Cute items! Can't wait to use them all. And can't wait for my next box again!

Tip for consumers:
Prepare to wait long for the box to arrive. If you’re not patient, then don’t subscribe.

I always love getting my NMNL box in the mail! It's like Christmas every time! I really like that it's a good mix between makeup and skincare products so it never gets too repetitive. The company is great about giving little teaser emails leading up to your box being sent so you have an idea of what kind of products you'll be receiving. The booklet included always breaks down each item - especially useful if you can't read Japanese or Korean - and also has some cute additional pages like "What's Your Vibe!" based on your zodiac sign as well as additional contests they have! It's always a treat to get the pink box!

I live in Canada and the box got here ONE DAY after shipping. I ordered January 31st, the box shipped February 4th and arrived February 5th. I am deeply impressed, that's the fastest shipping I've had on anything since the pandemic started. The box had definitely been tossed around a little during the process, I could see dents and even a small partial puncture hole on one side. There was no bubble wrap or anything, the items were just loose inside the box, but nothing was damaged at all. (Tbh most of it was not very breakable)

The items inside are really nice, it felt like opening a present someone had sent me. I will definitely be open to purchasing again if another box catches my eye.

Tip for consumers:
The prices were all set in USD, I am from Canada. It was a little expensive but a nice treat. Even if you buy one box, you are signed up for a month-to-month subscription so remember to cancel if you don't want to keep receiving it

Products used:
I know I will use everything except I received a small eyeshadow palette I may regift.

The 3-month plan was a delightful experience to try. Every product came to me was in a super nice quality, and in a rather good condition knowing that it crossed almost the entire world to get to me. The exclusivities and essentials among the beauty products were various and beautiful, mysteriously matching my eyes and skin colors. Even during Covid-19 I could receive my boxes on time and if not, I benefited an excellent customer service to help my finding my goodies.
I will probably renew the plan I chose, knowing the first try was such a good experience.

This was my first subscription box every and I am extremely happy with it. Although some may say it is pricy, I think it is an excellent price point for receiving quality items all the way from Japan/Korea. I look forward to the future boxes!

I just got my first box and I LOVE it!
All the products are cute and seem of great quality. I'm looking forward to trying it all. The theme for my first box was summer in Seoul, so the products were aimed at moisturizing and protecting the skin after the sun plus added some shimmery makeup. Really nice.

It's an amazing subscription that provides me with all the beauty products I need that since I joined I haven't shopped for any other beauty product since, everything you could possibly need is sent each month and the delivery is free which is awesome. The products are top notch and of great quality and the quantity is also really really good. All in all a great subscription that I have :)

Just received my first box (August 2020) and loved it! I've been a longtime fan and user of K-beauty products but haven't dabbled in J-beauty much. And since my planned 2020 trip to Japan fell through because of COVID, I decided to treat myself.
So glad I did! All of the products I revived were cute and performed well. Looking forward to my next box!

All the items in the box are very well-curated based on the month's theme and I love it since it is also a mystery beauty box of some sorts—it's like Christmas morning all year long! If you're a beginner, then this is the perfect box for you! If you're already into K/J-beauty then this is also a great box to try out some new stuff!

I always get really useful and cute high quality items each month! I look forward to getting my box of makeup goodies in the mail. Some of my favorite items I have gotten are a rilakumma makeup pouch, etude house blush, and Kirby lip cream.

I had a few issues with delivery due to covid but since their new delivery tracking option, I actually received my latest box so much earlier than expected. Items are adorable and the box is a steal considering if you bought separately, it saves tons of money and headache in trying to find the items on line. Very happy with nakenolife!

Mixed feelings. I LOVE the rebranding they've done, the design of the boxes and pamphlets are beautiful and really go above and beyond compared to other subscription boxes in how they display the products and provide information and tips for how to use them. Overall, the products are certainly of high quality, but the December box felt repetitive, with so many of the items being face masks and other fairly basic items (ie. Hand soap). Primarily, however, is the fact that I bought the box because of an offer they were advertising where you could get extra items in the box when using a specific code. The offer made it sound like you would get some limited edition Pikachu makeup items which I was really excited about. However, I only got one bonus item in this box which turned out to be a face mask with no relation whatsoever to the Pikachu line. It's because of this that I came away very disappointed and can't help but feel that their advertisements are at least somewhat misleading.

I have my fair share of experience on the delayed boxes. I first subscribed to the monthly plan in June 2020. I got my June & July boxes in September, after series of emails with the team

There was a delay due to the global pandemic situation and it took couple of days for the customs clearance. I however, appreciate the team's prompt response in addressing the issue. Although they were not able to speed up the process, they did however track the boxes and assure me that the boxes were shipped and on the way

As for my September, November & December, I received all within a week after the date of the payment

On the area that NMNL could improve on is lowering their priority shipping and DHL Express cost as I had to pay almost $45 (including box) a month and give more sheet masks to loyal subscribers!

Other than that, thank you for bringing happiness to my life. I loved all of the curated beauty items so far. I always look forward to cute items in the beauty boxes

I've just received my 12th boxes and I'm in love with it like the first one I've received! NMNL really makes the money spent worth it, with a great variety in products each month. I've also discovered things I've never thought they existed! Super happy with my plan and I think I'll renew it again and again. Can't wait for my December Box!

I have been anxiously waiting for my first box to arrive, been tracking and watching. I'm a little disappointed that my August box came before my July box and I still don't know when the July box will be here. I'm just happy that for July I have received a box to enjoy, hopefully the July box comes in August so I have something to enjoy then! Everything in my box I have loved, the products are great and I love the pamphlet that comes with it explaining each item. So far, I'm loving it!
