Hey Beautys,
Today is a review on the items I got in my Bellabox for October.
This month was BB's second birthday so we were meant to get some amazing items in our box.
If I had to be honest. I hated my box. I will only be using 3 things out of the entire box, the rest goes to donation. It wasn't worth $15, let alone $5. Let me get into why....
Alfaparf Semi Di Lino Diamond Shampoo and Conditioner - Okay so its shampoo and conditioner right? What I dislike is that it is for
Normal hair. My hair is no where near
Normal. I have an extremely itchy and dry scalp thats flaky all year round. So this is no use for me and I'll be using as a 'If needed' backup. So I really disliked this.
Jacqueline Burchell Nail Laquer Duo - These shades, Call Me Sexy and PHD In Retail are gorgeous. Call Me Sexy is a golden polish with red sequins in it, I imagine it looking amazing over a black nail polish, and PHD in Retail is a hot chocolate sequiny textured brown. Its hard to describe. These I both loved, and they are the perfect size.
Sample of Maybelline's Dream Pure BB Cream - I recieved a full size of this 2 months ago from BB. And I haven't used it yet. So to me this 'extra' was a bit of a 'Oh we have some spares lets get rid of them' kind of thing. And the writing, is in another language too. So i dont know whats up with that.
Loccitane Shea Butter Hand Cream - This hand cream is for dry skin, I don't have dry skin, my mother does, and I don't use hand cream - rarely.
Sample of Beyonce's Heat - I smelt this, and I'm not a fan of the smell. To me perfumes shouldn't be in beauty boxes because everyone likes the smell of different things.
Bioderma Sebium Exfoliating Gel - I will certainly be using this. I love anything like this so I can't wait to try this out.
So thats it for this very opinionated post.
Hope you enjoyed.
Do you subscribe to any beauty box? What is your opinion on them?
Until next time, keep smiling.

I got a completely different box! How weird about the other language writing on the "bonus" sample... that's so odd! xx
ReplyDeleteOur boxes were rather similar though! I was hoping I'd get the lippie cause I've had my eye on it for a while so I was annoyed with that! xx
DeleteI think it's a bit unfair to be mad about getting "normal" shampoo and conditioner, they don't really know that you have an itchy and dry scalp, as with the hand cream they don't know you don't use it, I would love this box to be honest I don't see much wrong with it.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, when you sign up for the box, they ask you what type of hair you have, your skin type, etc. so I would've thought that because I've told them what type, that I'd get one for my correct hair type. And with the hand cream, I've actually started using it because my hands have become insanely dry over the weekend for some reason.
DeleteWell they probably should have noted that down and took a bit more care in packing >:( I use hand creams and body butters even if my skin doesn't need it, it makes me feel all feminine and pretty hehee plus they smell yumm (: x
