Review: Bellabox (June)

This post is going to be about the June Bellabox reviews. I joined a giveaway contest held by a blogger, Christine and won the Bellabox from her. Since then, I've loved this and I'm always looking forward to a launch for their next month's pink jumping box!

The pink box is already a plus point for their packaging, simply because that's my favorite color!


In the box, they have this pink envelope where it contained brochures and introduction cards of the products given in the Bellabox. They also have discount cards too, if it happens that you would want to buy their products.




This is not supposed to be in the BellaBox, but this is an additional perk give by Christine! It's a Loreal Color Infaillible Eyeshadow!



This Ralph Lauren Romance fragrance is just awesome. This fragrance has a floral scent with a tinge of musky smell. I always wear fragrance at three points, my inner wrists and the side of my neck. These are the pulse points and the smell would spread around your whole. This is available for sale in 50ml at $116 and 100ml at $149 respectively.


Biotherm White D-Tox BB Cream. This is advertised as oil-free, spot fading formula and after using, it does prove right! The texture is a nice fluid and could be applied on almost like a lotion. The application is really easy, as compared to the current BB cream that I'm currently using (I'm using the Korea TheFaceShop Odbo BB Cream) and is more light when applied. I do not have the heavy feeling like how I had when applying this as compared to my current BB.

I liked that it doesn't have an artificial smell nor was there any overwhelming fragrance. I didn't like that it provided only a SPF 25+ PA+++ and it doesn't provide sufficient coverage for my dark eye circles and my freckles. And I also didn't like that it doesn't provide long-lasting effect. The BB lasts maximum, for up to 3 hours and no I wasn't out in the hot scorching sun.

I'd probably rate this a 6/10 and I would not purchase this product if given a chance to.




Lancome Blanc Expert Derm-Crystal. Serum tends to be light weight and this is no exceptional case. The ingredients in this serum contains soy and sunflower extract that helps to brighten up your skin. I've used this for like a week or so, and I'm not very generous on my application each time but I do realise my skin turning smoother. Boyf says I have skin that GLOWS! So thumbs up for this and I'd rate is a 9/10. I loved that it's so easy to apply and the smell is simply fragrant. The aftermath of application doesn't give you a sticky feel, it just leaves you feeling fresh and cool.

Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate. Just like how the name sounds, this product works incredibly awesome. I didn't try this on my face but on my hands, where there were some more creases and it did work! Continuously without fail, I applied this for 7 days and one more great thing about it, is that it absorbs well. Throughout this experiment, I tried it all on my right hand and when compared, it was really a vast difference. I'd rate this a 10/10 definitely! I could now claim myself as Lancome supporter!



Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concetrate. One of my favorite product, this is awesome and you ought to get it now. My skin is gets dull very easily when I do not slap on sufficient moisturising products at night. After using the concentrate which is in oil form, I do not face this issue anymore. Although this is in oil form, it doesn't hinder me although I've got an oily T-Zone. I just try to apply lesser on my T-Zone and more on the cheek where the skin tends to be drier. The fragrance made me go "ooh-ahh-shiok!" it smelt so nice and this is especially great for the night. It makes you go into deeper sleep with the extra tinge of lavender fragrance. I'd rate this a 8/10 because I haven't had enough to fully try the full effects, it's just a review for the sample pack. This product made me notice about Kiehl's all over again.

Kiehl's Calendula Herbal-Extract Toner. I've always wanted to try out a new toner as I couldn't find one to stay on to. Those that I've loved their fragrance, would always contain alcohol and leave me with a stinging pain or that they would totally be alcohol free but they still smell like alcohol. Whatever. This toner is basically one of my absolute love. I already fell in love with the obvious fact that it has petals in the toner, making me trusting them totally that they're using natural ingredients. Second, the toner is so gentle on my skin I don't feel any stinging pain nor any extreme tightness in my skin. Thirdly, the scent is so calming and refreshing that it smelt like tea. And lastly, the color is so nice, why is the color so beautiful?! I'm giving this a 9/10 for sure!



shu uemura Whitefficient Brightening Cleansing Oil. I have never liked removing make ups with oil basically because I'm too lazy to go wash it away. I've always been an avid fan of water base makeup removers and I never switch to cleansing oil. I've decided to give it a try this time to see if it changes my firm decision about removers. I poured some of the cleansing oil on my hands and began massage it all onto my face including my eyes, my eyelashes and my lips. This is rather gentle and I don't feel really heavy while massaging it in. After which I wet my hands and massage through my face again till the solution turns milky. I spent a little more time on my eye area as I always find it hard to remove my Kate eyeliner (it shows how strong it is). Overall, I rate this product a 7/10 as you know I don't prefer cleansing oil and I hate having so many steps to remove my makeup. My daily skincare routine is already a chore so I always try to find solutions to cut short my time spent on makeup and my time spent on removing my makeup.



The above statements are basically my personal humble opinion and reviews are given according to my skin type and my habits. They might not be suitable for me but they are absolutely great for you and vice versa, they might be a great product for me and a hater for you.
