Bellabox September 2015 unboxing- what's in the box??


Beauty reboot! What a cute theme and a nice way to launch Spring! 

Contents: 

Jurlique mask- I have liked jut liquor for many years, their natural products smell awesome and leave the skin feelin fresh- this product was no exception. 

Moogoo Acne cleanser- I've been mostly spot free during my pregnancy- will maybe save this one for later use. 

Palmers sachet- I've used Palmers Tummy Butter Stretch mark massage cream since the day I found out I was expecting- it's been fantastic and am lucky (very lucky) to report no stretch marks to date. 


Ovulation test- ummm I'm knocked up already- so fertile- yes. Thanks for asking... 

Mmmmm coffee- who doesn't like a gritty scrub that smells like Joe!? 

Carmex lip balm- jasmine green tea scented- I have tooooooo many balms on the go- this one can wait on standby. Smells nice though!

Loreal nail polish- this is such a good size for portability/ if you get bored easily/ if your a nail polish bandit who clogs their bottles/ if you lose your stuff all the time! It's a nice moody metallic- doesn't scream spring to me but it's still a great classic for the collection. 







Lust Have it September 2015 unboxing



Lust Have It September was a real winner! I liked and will use every single item in the package- this makes the value really great as there is nothing disappointing or redundant- whoop!! 

Firstly I loved the black mesh bag this is a change from the usually hot pink bag- it was a nice surprise! Much more to my personal style/ taste. 

The second thing I loved was the UB cosmetics tint stick. (I received one in a Bellabox a little while back and didn't suit the pink shade- this one is a DELIGHTFUL plummy tone!) 

My third highlight was the DB twist and go polish remover- I just threw out an old one- this is a must try for any nail polish lover- so quick and easy to use! It really is a great little time saver! 

The other stuff: keratase shampoo and conditioner- saving these to take to hospital when the baby comes as well as a mini whiteglo toothpaste. 
There was also a decent lip liner in nude by OFRA and a tea sample. 

Lowlight: my only note would be (& this happens a bit with LHI) the cosmetic colours in the pack never seem match or  work together- but hey, not a huge deal breaker!

Bellabox June 2015 Winter Warrior

Hi Pretties,
This was a box I was looking forward to as I really like Original Source shower products. Due to the repeated Burts Bees which Ive had before from Bellabox I'd rate it a 3/5. Definitely worth the $15 paid with 3x Full Size items. Sadly the other contents are not particularly exciting but all in all make up a useful box.

BellaBox Winter Warrior box June 2015: 


The Card: 



Yum Yum Yum! Smells AMAZING! 


Quite a nice lip satain, does bleed (sad face) Ill se this n Summer when I have a tan as pinks dont look great on me when I'm fair.  

10ml of self tan wont get you far.... and Winter?- seems more 'Summer' to me...



Hand for the overnight  bag- single Model co wipe (again had before in Bellabox- they're actually not bad with one exfoliating side, but I wouldn't purchase them) 


Rinse and repeat- another Burts Bees lip balm- these do have a nice minty scent/taste and are clear. Ive just nowhere near finished the last one.



Sachets of Shampoo and Conditioner- also handy for that single night away... 










Bellabox May 2015 Sugar Fix quick pics!

This month's Bellabox May 2015 was SUGAR FIX 


Card 

Contents 







Top Pick: this month had to be the contour pencil- just for something different that you may not have or tried. Quite effective.

Lowlight: The tanner smelt relly good and was a nice texture but not enough for a single body application which was a bit of a let down.

Lust Have It October

Hi pretties! 



Another month, another delightful beauty subscription box! 

This month's Lust Have It is packed full of goodies! Of the 6 items 5 were full sized making it insanely good value at $19.95 per month! 


Let's get started, I'll take you on an October box tour! 


First impression: 
Looks full of goodies and comes in the usual pink mesh bag- heaps handy! 

Each month there's a product card outlining what's what:



The contents: 



1 & 2 skincare:
Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse- 10 ml sample- rrp pro rata $4.99 ($24.95 for 50ml) dry oil for softening skin and helping stretch marks.

Montaigne Jeunesse glacial clay spa mask- full sized- rrp $4.99. I've tried many of their masks and they are all awesome! 

3 4 & 5- colour products:
So Susan intense eye shadow- full sized- rrrp $35 . At $35 I would expect this compact to at least have a mirror?? Unfortunately I have dark circles so purple/blue eyeshadow isn't any good to me, I'll give it to a friend who suits these shades- I'm sure it will be enjoyed but for this reason I won't swatch it. 


Colour by TBN lipstick in 'pout those lips girl'-full sized- rrp $3.50. Really pretty grape shade, velvety texture. 


Inika organic black kohl pencil with built in sharpener- full sized- rrp $29. I quite the the control of a pencil liner. The built in sharpener is genius- I'm seemingly always using a blunt pencil despite having multiple sharpeners, this is right where you need it, when you need it. 



6 lifestyle product: 
Glamourflage eye mask- full sized- rrp $7.95. Because lusties are so damned glamorous and Devine that they need a leopard print eye mask in their lives! 



Total value: $85.43

Total cost: $19.95


Highlight:  Inika eye pencil

Lowlight: So Susan eye shadow

Bellabox October 2014 misguided & happy birthday

Hi Pretties! 


October bellabox was one of my favourites so far this year! It was their birthday box- happy birthday!

It was Nicole x Misguided branded but that was as far as the colab went... Not sure if I missed a card or something... 


First Impressions: 





Loved the chevron tissue!! 




Cards:  was missing the product card- sorry I can't put rrp prices etc. 


The haul: 


Colour Products: 
The most beautiful hot and creamy red by Kester Black (check out this) 

Rimmel Apocalips in phenomenon- I am impressed with the formula and shade- it's light and nudie. 




Body products:
Nivea stress protect deodorant mini- I threw this straight in my handbag- has come in very handy! 

Bonus: I'm guessing this was the bonus product- mor hand cream sachet- mor=  always delicious 



Hair products:

Pantene Daily Moisture Renewal shampoo & conditioner- loved Pantene in a previous bellabox this year, then was offered it last month,but now again in this box & it was also in Marie Claire- the parcel. Starting to feel as though it's a bit much having Pantene shoved down my throat- calm down guys! 





Model co skincare sachets: 
These were also in last month's Lust Have It- I don't love Model co- these products were ok but nothing special- will use the sachets but wouldn't buy it. 





So there it was Bellabox October 2014

Highlight: Kester Black nail polish & Rimmel lip gloss
Lowlight: Pantene 


What was in yours? What were your highlights and lowlights? 


If your impressed and want to get one for yourself, check out Bellabox here!

Lust Have It September 2014

This months Lust Have It September came the other day!
I really enjoy Lust Have It beauty subscription service & at $19.95 per month it's a really affordable little treat! 
Check them out here 
If you do subscribe, feel free to use this code for a discount.

Whoop Mail!!! 

The bag of tricks!! I love the little bags that list have it use! Never too many! 

The booty laid out: 

Model co lip lacquer-swatch: 
So you can see from this swatch that it bleeds and it's too runny for the colour- when wearing such a bold shade, you don't want it sliding and smearing everywhere- to be honest I wouldn't trust this gloss not to make me look like a hot mess. 


Model co array of sachets (this is also in Bellabox Oct) 
I hate sachets and I don't love model co but I will give them a fair go and try them out- these might be a handy gym bag addition. 

Urban skincare co repair body balm: 
This is heaven!!!! It smells amazing. Ahh mazing! It's so nourishing and just devine. I would totally buy this body lotion! 

Another duplicate- I received a yellow version in a beauty box before. The texture of the polish is so streaky- it's kind of like kiddy makeup. The stencil does not work- it is a waste of time trying . 

Macadamia wax creme highlighter: 
The colour and texture of this is beautiful- unfortunately the tube is hard plastic making it difficult to get the product out. Also unfortunate is the texture it stays tacky on the skin not setting. But like I saidthe colour is good! 

Uriage cleansing gel: 
Ive never heard of this brand before but I like gel cleansers the texture, lather and after feel of this cleanser. 

I know I have not shown heaps of love for the contents individually but all in all this box was still fun to open and discover. The value is definitely there but it is just one of those boxes that not everything is for everybody. 

Highlight: body lotion
Lowlight: glam nail kit 

What do you think of this subby service? 
Do you like this month's bag of goodies?
