Bellabox Review June 2014

I am quite excited when I received my Bellabox last Friday at work.  The package was well packed and nothing is broken in the box.  There is a slight den on one of corner of the box but I guess that is why the box is made of good quality cardboard.  

One of the bonus items this month: The InStyle Australia Magazine June 2014 issue RRP$9.95
As someone pointed out online, we are well into June (20th June when I received it), it is actually considered as an outdated issue. 


Contents within the box:




This month introduction to the lovely products I received:



I decided to do something slightly different with this review by inviting 2 of my lovely friends to try out this month Bellabox products with me.  

1. Kora Organics by Miranda Kerr Hydrating Mask - Cult  100ml RRP $49.95 full size


This is the most exciting product this month.  I heard about this brand for over a year and never got a chance to try it. Our verdicts: lovely product and really hydrates your skin.
Aroma: mainly Sandalwood.  Really remind me of the spa salon where you get massage and facial.
Texture: quite watery and doesn't dry up.
Color: white with bluish tint
Pros: lots of organic ingredients
Cons: 6 months expiry.  Didn't refine my pores as claimed.



2. Mary Kay Mineral Eye Palette - Garden Sky - Color 10g RRP $23 full size


Our second Fav product:  These colors are just lovely especially on fair skin tone.  This is my first time using Mary Kay while one of my review panel used to work as a MK consultant years ago.  This is part of limited-edition Zen in Bloom Collection.
Pros: easy to apply and blend in.  Easy Colors to work with: sky blue, bronze, green.  Contains Vit A, C, E (claimed to help protect against wrinkle-causing free radicals).
Cons:  contains paraben.  Order online or contacting a MK consultant.



3. Grown Alchemist Vanilla & Orange Peel Hand Cream - Luxe 20ml RRP $9.95
Another lovely product.  The smell is just divine if you love citrus and it is non greasy.
Pros: no paraben. Lovely scent. Non-greasy.  Free delivery for online purchase at http://www.grownalchemist.com/
Cons: not the most moisturise hand cream I used
Bonus promo code to be used on their online store.  I already placed an online order and am waiting for my package with my bonus full size hand cream.



4. Herbal Essences Naked Shine 0 Essential 40ml sample x 2 valued at $1.89



Pros: pleasant smell. Good size. 
Cons: can't really smell the white tea and mint




5. Lavanilla The Healthy Fragrance - Fragrance sample 1.2ml sample valued at $1.90
Vanilla Grapefruit

Pros: strong vanilla scent.  All natural and Organic pure essential oils.  Antioxidants goji berry and kakadu plum. No paraben and other additives
Cons: very mature smell.  Can't smell the grapefruit. 



Bonus item:
Nutrimetrics Nutri-Rich Nourishing Masque 5ml sample valued at $2.60




So this month it was an awesome Bellabox for me. Whooping $99.24 value of products for $15. Making it even more exciting to see what is in my July Bellabox.

Stay tune for my next review which I hope to write next week on products that I found are quite similar to Bioterm Aquasource products.
