Bellabox June 2015 REVIEW


Subscription boxes have been something I've always been interested in taking a look into simply because they give you little trial products of a few different things that you can test out before going and purchasing a full size product and spending that extra money to get the full size product.
Not only that but it is a good way of trying out new things you wouldn't normally by yourself or may be out of your comfort zone.


Bellabox is an Australian subscription service box that comes out every month with a few different products occasionally you will receive full size samples but it's mainly a sample mini deluxe size in which are great for travel and giving things a try before you buy test.

Bellabox includes things like skincare, makeup, hair and body care into their boxes.

At $15 a month including the postage, Bellabox will send you out a box of products straight to your door which are customised to your beauty profile. Bellabox also allow you to cancel at any time as well.

I was kindly gifted the special fixed June box from Bellabox (RRP $17.95) to get an inside scoop of what they do. The June box contained the following:


1000 Jean Patou 1.5ml fragrance 

A mature fragrance which is deep and strong scented. I would say this fragrance would suit an older person. It's not something I personally would wear as I like lighter scents but this would be a fragrance I would consider gifting an Aunt.


Aveda Damage Remedy Intensive Restructuring Treatment 10ml

A deep hair treatment that is great for those who are constantly using heating tools or dying their hair. Our hair is such a delicate thing if we really think about it and we put it through its real paces on a daily basis, it's important to give your hair a good hair treatment at least once a week I would say and Aveda would be something I would look into purchasing as it was a really good deep intense treatment that was very buttery paste like and nourished my hair well.


Universal Beauty Cosmetics Tint Stick - Nude Pink

I've never tried this UB brand before and was excited to try something new. I'm always on the look out for lip products that set matte and don't leave product over little Niah's face when I kiss her or lip marks over glasses that I drink from. The great thing about UB Tint Stick was that it went on so easy, felt light and like nothing was on your lips but set in without any wetness, stickiness and sat still for a long period of time. The stick is almost like a texta from the way it looks and feels.
Apply a single coat and it will give a sheer tint, double coat or more than you will get a more intense full colour.


Original Source Skin Quench - Watermelon & Jojoba Oil 250ml

Any watermelon product will get my attention as I just love the sweet scent of a watermelon. It's almost eatable smelling. Soft oil beads are in this shower gel along with it being a moisturising all in one product. Natural oils are used within this gel which is fantastic for my skin being that it is quite sensitive and left it feeling well looked after.


Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm 4.25g

A full sized lip balm. I have used several Burt's Bees and have never seen a product disappoint me from them. Burt's Bees lip balms have to be my favourite from their range as they have always been a go to product that I know will do the trick.
Peppermint adds that little sting of freshness onto your lips and makes you also want to lick it off if you're a peppermint lover like me. A good soft caring lip balm that smells delicious.

    1. I recall hearing about them when they first started up but never gotten around to trying them. I have always been sceptical about subscription boxes but I can see the real worth in them now after trying out Bellabox.
