March Bellabox 2014

My final Bellabox! I've really enjoyed getting these! And yes, I do realise it's the middle of April... oops.

 

Pantene Aqua Light Shampoo and Conditioner
I absolutely loved these!! I've bought them again because they just made my hair feel amazing! My hair does get weighed down sometimes (I do have quite a lot of it!) and this specialises in making your hair feel lovely and light, and it did a pretty good job of it!

Swisse Bioactive Nature Oil
I actually used this as a nail and cuticle oil and it was lovely! I didn't use the oil for anything else so I cant say much about it's effect on stretch marks or scars.

Natralus Paw Paw Pure Gel
I used this on a horrid mosquito bite and it provided relief for about 5 minutes. I'm very sensitive to insect bites, so maybe if it was another person it would be a bit more effective? It's hard to say!

Glamourflage Madam Em Bubble Bath
Oooo this smelt like heaven!! Sweet and fruity, my favourite! It was a strong grapefruit scent and made heaps of bubbles. I loved it!

ModelCO Party Proof Lipstick
When I first saw the colour I didn't think I would like it, as it has a bit of a brown undertone. However once I put it on I actually loved it! It looks nice and natural, and very creamy so it's not drying at all. It also comes with a little mirror on the side, which is such a neat idea!

Glam 3 in 1 Nail Art Pens with Jewels
I loved the idea of this, but it's quality kind of disappointed me. The jewels came off very easily and the stickers kept ripping! I would have loved it, otherwise.

February Bellabox 2014

Aveda Pure Abundance Style Prep
I tried this for a couple of days and it didn't give my hair any added volume from what I can tell. It does make your hair smell really, really nice though!

Burt's Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk and Honey Body Lotion

I'm a big fan of Burt's Bees - it always works really well for me. The same goes for this lotion - it smells great, keeps my skin feeling moisturized for the duration of the day, and is silky soft!

Shanghai Suzy Lipstick

This colour is not one I'd normally wear, but I do think its one I could get used to! It's very bright and pretty, and I love the way it looks when its on. Only thing I didn't like was that it dried out my lips (although most matte lipsticks do that to be honest).

Romy Shampoo & Conditioner
Wasn't impressed with this shampoo, it did not lather whatsoever and my hair wasn't feeling clean at all. The conditioner, on the other hand, was wonderful. Nourishing and left my hair soft and silky.

Gaia Skin Natuals Pink Grapefruit and Jasmine Foaming Cleanser

The smell of this cleanser really wasn't to my taste, however it worked pretty well. It removed my makeup and left my skin feeling great. I was surprised that it was called a 'foaming cleanser', when it didn't foam at all? Very odd..

Lavanila The Healthy Fragrance Vanilla Grapefruit

This smells AMAZING. Exactly how it's described - just like vanilla and grapefruit. It's sweet and strong, but not overpowering. I love it!

January Bellabox 2014

My very kind Mum gave me a 3-month subscription to Bellabox for Christmas. This was the first one I received, so I thought I would do a review on the products they gave me!

 

Palmolive Ayurituel Shower Gel

This was a great shower gel, it lathered well and left my skin feeling clean and soft. It's very gentle which is a plus for sensitive skin. The only thing I didn't really like was the smell of it.

Phytomer Hydra Original Thirst Melting Cream

I liked this moisturizer a lot actually, it kept my skin hydrated throughout the entire day. It was light, absorbent and silky. Big tick!

INM Australia Out The Door Topcoat

I was quite disappointed with this topcoat. At first it looked glossy and reflective on my nails, but they had chipped within one day.

Avène Hydrance Optimale Rich Hydrating Cream

This is an excellent moisturizer! My skin felt super nourished and healthy after using this only a few times. I think my skin is Normal to Oily, but a bit dehydrated. This moisturizer is for Dry to Very Dry Skin, but was fine for me when I used it sparingly on the oily areas of my face (T-zone). It's very exxy; $91 for 50ml, so I wouldn't buy it myself. Although if you're willing to spend that much, then I definitely recommend it!

5/5

Tuscan Tan Wash Off Bronzing Mousse

I was quite excited to try this as it would be my first time using a fake tan, although when I went to try it out, the pump wasn't working and the mousse wouldn't come out. Very disappointing!

Model Co Fat Lash Volumising Mascara

This mascara had the best brush I've ever used! It's a standard brush but with a small knob on the end which is perfect for your bottom lashes. It makes your lashes look very long and full, although sometimes it can become a little clumpy. 

4/5

Wotnot Facial Wipes

I'm not a fan of facial wipes, so I didn't have very high hopes for these ones. Surprisingly, they were quite good! They removed all of my makeup - even waterproof mascara! I could feel that they were not fully cleansing my face and pores, it removed everything on the surface - no more. I think these wipes are ideal for if you are staying at a friends, not for everyday use.
