December Bellabox

My December Bellabox arrived today! Yay! One of my friends was wondering what exactly is a Bellabox. Well, it is a monthly subscription where you get skincare/cosmetics/haircare samples and usually one or two full-size products. It is $15 a month and is defiantly a little special treat for me.

So what was in this month box...


These are all samples sizes.

Compeed Blister Pack. - This is very handy as I often get blisters on my heels when I wear new shoes or heels (which is uncommon for me now). This prevents new blisters forming and heals existing ones and can stay place for 3 days! Strange how they only sent one sample... oh well, I'm sure it will still go to good use.

John Freide Frizz-Ease Secret Weapon Flawless Finishing Cream. - This is a cream to use on split ends and to tame dry strands and flyaways. I'm not a huge fan on haircare products but this one seems like one I will use for a special occasion when I actually straighten my hair - maybe Christmas? Very handy item to have.

EmerginC Multi Fruit Cleanser and EmerginC Photocell Cream - Plant and fruit based ingredients to product the skin. The cream is for fine lines (...I'm at that age where this is handy).

Allegra Rhodes Hand and Nail Cream - I got the scent Ocean Mist and it is beautiful! The scent is lovely but not overpowering (which I hate in a hand cream). It is lovely on the skin and isn't greasy - yay! Wish this sample was bigger, oh well. Bellabox made up with it with their next product...

And the main gift....



This beauty is the Savior Faire Limited Edition Kit in "Pour Etre Desiree" (Summer). It is amazing and just up my alley with both neural and colourful eyeshadows. This retail for $110!!! All this in a $15 box!

Let's delve further into this box. Although you can't see it in this picture it has a big mirror in the lid - a definite bonus!

It comes with a mini lipgloss, bronzer, 6 eyeshadow, a mini eyeliner and mini mascara.



As you can see this lipgloss in a gorgeous colour. It is in the shade "Cherish". It has some little sparkles in it and goes in quite sheer. It has an amazing Vanilla scent and isn't platic-y at all. I accidentally tasted some of it and it actually tastes quite nice (this must be sounding a little freaky right now haha).



Eyeshadows in "Whisper", "Embrace", "Intensity", "Desire", "Crave" and "Effigy".
These seem like really nice shadows, they feel smooth on the skin and not gritty. I especially love Effigy, which is a stupid name for an eyeshadow but is a brilliant deep brown shade. I can think of a lot of makeup combinations I could wear with this lot.


This bronzer is in the shade "Play" - I have rubbed it in my skin a bit so you can get the effect. I am rather pale and this bronzer is rather coppery so I probably won't use it as a bronzer - it would look amazing on someone with darker skin though. I will use this as a beautiful eyeshadow.

What an amazing box! You can sign up to Bellabox at http://www.bellabox.com.au
