For Easter, Memebox had a scavenger hunt sort of event. Sadly, I didn't get to take advantage. However, shortly after they had another called Seoul Search. I took part in this one and was careful not to spend too much on mystery products.
By the time I found out about it, they only had a few left. I got a couple of each. Iteawon, Cheongdamndong, and Myeongdong.
Oddly enough in this picture, I recognize about 12 different Korean skin care brands.
These are all places in Seoul, Korea. The items included in the mystery are items common to those areas, available for about 50-75% of the price they are normally. Memebox doesn't tell you what item corresponds to what place, but this is what I got.
Now, I have no idea what I'm going to do with this pink blush because it's a little too light for me, but I was thinking of giving the extra set of mystery items I got to anyone who's interested. Drop me a message on my Snarktopus page on FB if you would like to pick up one of these items.
You've all gotten the memo, seen the trend, heard the buzz... Get it? Buzz?

Yes that's Buzz Lightyear wearing a scarf. Even he knows that scarves are the in thing right now. They have scarves for all seasons: thick, thin, sheer, opaque, bandana styled, ascots, regular old scarf scarves and even Infinity Scarves. No. Not scarves times infinity, but a specific style of scarf that forms a continuous loop.
The Infinity Scarf is a versatile fashion accessory that can comes in a variety of widths, lengths, colors and materials. You can do just about anything with an infinity scarf. It's continuous loop design keeps it from slipping from your neck and enables you to adapt it to suit your needs. You can wear it as a cowl, layer it around your neck like a regular scarf, loop it over your
head like an opera length necklace, cross tie it around your body to
make a comfy beach top and even use it to tie up small children.

Simply by changing up your accessories and how you position the scarf, your infinity scarf could act as other garments you wear regularly. Belts, vests, cardigans, shawls. You name it.
Check out this video where SecretLifeOfaBioNerd shows us how to wear a wide infinity scarf 21 different ways.
The other great thing about infinity scarves is that they are so, SO easy to make on your own. With that said, I'll conclude this post by announcing that I will be posting a brief infinity scarf tutorial in a day or two and that I MAY run a contest. Keep your eyes and ears open!
