In a
previous post I believe I mentioned the Bellabox. The Bellabox is a $15 a month
subscription. Every month you are sent five to six beauty products to test out.
Sometimes you will receive sample size products and other times you can get
full sized products. It’s a great little subscription if you are always on the
hunt for new beauty products to try out.
So to give
you an idea of what to expect from the Bellabox I have decided to dedicate this
post to the March Bellabox.
Firstly once
you open the postage parcel you will find a cute little box that contains all
your goodies.
When you
open the box you will find a card that lists all the products in the box and
what their retail value is.
Under this
you will find your products wrapped in tissue paper.
This month I
received two full sized products which I’m pretty excited about but I’ll go
through them in the order that’s on the description card.
First
product out of the box was Ocean Essence
Summer Breeze Shower Gel. The bottle itself is pretty small. I haven’t used
it yet but I did open it to see what it smelt like. Honestly I wasn’t over
excited with the smell, it was pleasant but nothing unique.
This
products retail price is $4.95 for 20ml
The second
product is a Designer Brands Lip Pencil
in the shade 629 Nude. This is one of
the full size products. At $4.99 a pencil its pretty good value. The texture of
the pencil is average. It applies easily but isn’t as nice as some other lip
pencils I’ve tried. The first thing I noticed and liked about this product
though was that the pencil lid had an inbuilt sharpener which I find really
nifty.
Third
product is Suigo Ultimate Control Shampoo
and Ultimate Control Conditioner. The bottles are a decent size so I will
be able to get several washes out of them to determine whether or not I like
this product. It is supposed to be for weak brittle hair. At the moment my hair
is pretty health so I’m not sure if it will show any improvements.
These
products come in 260ml bottles, both at $22.50
The fourth
product was another full sized product. I received a Clinique High Impact Lipstick in the shade Extreme Pink. These lipsticks retail at $36 a piece so some months
you definitely get your $15 subscription back in product. The lipstick isn’t a
colour I’d pick out for myself but it feels nice and moisturising. I’ll definitely
give it a go.
Lastly I received
a Swisse Active Energy Bar. I found
this a bit random as I’ve never received a food product before. However I do
like the Swisse range so I may try it.
Product
retails at $2.39 a bar
Well that is
all for today. Comment below if you want to see more Bellabox posts.
