Bella Box (Dec 2012 Christmas Edition)

Bella Box (Dec 2012 Christmas Edition)


Hello girls, I know this is a super duper late post. I actually got 3 bella boxes but I will go through it one by one. The other 2 will be updated in next blog posts (April Box). Before I show you what I got from my Christmas box let me just do a brief introduction on bellabox.

Bellabox is a monthly subscription box which allows ladies like me who likes to explore on new products. Each bellabox comes with 5 sample sized products from shampoo, cosmetics to skin cares. Totally of surprise as you will not know what actually they are going to pack into the box. This is also a plus for ladies who love surprises (I mean who don’t??) However, not to worry that the product they sent to you are not suitable for you. You are supposed to fill up a questionnaire during registration to help bellabox know more about you and prevent them from sending products that you might not be suitable to use.

Why did I choose bellabox out of so many subscription boxes available? I think that the price for each box is pretty affordable and after researching and browsing their previous boxes, I feel that the product they sent me I would most likely be fond of. Each box is S$19.95 which I think most of us would be able to afford it and sometimes there are promotions where that particular month box are slightly cheaper (e.g: OCBC Credit Card promo and etc.. )

Ok! Without further delay, let’s get right into my 2012 December Christmas Edition BellaBox!!!

My bellabox came in like this (please ignore my unglam blanko.. need to cover my details)

Pink box with cute snowflakes :)

Every bellabox comes with promotion coupons and a description list of the products in the box

Revealing the secret (hee hee)




I got extra bonus sample (Cellilux Deep Sea Secret Glacial Mineral Gel Mask) - Top Right
Xmas Gift (Bellabox eyeshadow brush)



I love the MEMEME Lip and Cheek Tint ❤

★ The products that I received in my box ★

1. Bella Caviar Beauty Serum

❥ Serum that contains caviar extracts & Marine Collagen supports the DNA of the skin, plumping up lines and wrinkles, empowering skin with vital energy and intensive moisture. Gives skin luminous glow and satiny finish…

2. Organix Hair Care Range

❥ Organix, a haircare brand based in the USA, has a strong commitment to the integrity of its ingredients. Their hair care includes ultra-rich shampoos, conditioners, creams and oils.

The one that I received is the Organix Ever Straight Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shampoo (for straight hair). Other bellaboxes include other haircare products depending on the subscriber’s personal profile.

3. Guerlian La Petite Robe Noire EDT

❥ Divinely feminine scents means “Little Black Dress” in French. The inclusion if roses, orange blossoms, musk, cherry and apple. (I personally am not a fan of scents. I can only use one type of perfume which is Gucci Envy, I am very sensitive to scents that are either too strong or too sweet.) but this scents, I like it.. however not sure if I am able to take it.. will try it one day and feedback to u guys if I never faint. Haha!!

4. Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi Usage Dry Oil

❥ Luxurious oil treatment that can be used on hair (no heating required) as well as face and body. You can also drip a few drops into your bath tub to achieve perfectly soft skin. I have tried it on my hair as well as my skin. It feels good on skin, not too oily feeling and didn’t break me out but I only uses it occasionally when I remember to use. Have not tried it on my body yet.

5. MEMEME Lip and Cheek Tint

❥ Lip and cheek tint adds a flush of colour to the lip and cheeks. Of all the items I got, I most prefer this, I can say this product is pretty similar to benefit chacha tint however the pigmentation is slightly lesser than the benefit one. Very subtle pink and I like it very much (^‿^) and I think its full size!!

6. Cellilux Deep Sea Secret Glacial Mineral Gel Mask – Bonus

❥ This gel mask contains nutrients and rare glacial water to reverse damage to the skin and rebuild skin elasticity. It detoxifies hydrates and exfoliates the skin which results in brighter and youthful skin. I have not tried this yet so not much comments on this product. I will feedback to you guys if the product is good after I have tried it.

7. Bellabox Eyeshadow Brush – Christmas gift ^^

❥ Eyeshadow brush made of horse hair. It’s super soft and not scratchy at all when applying eyeshadow. The only thing is I wished the brush handle is pink instead of black hahaa.

☆☆Disclaimer: The items above are purchased by my own money and reviews are based on personal opinion.

Love,

Updates of WinWin ❤

Hello Everyone, long time no post ✖‿✖. Actually I have a lot of products that I want to review on just no time to concentrate on a post. A little updates of my life recently.


I got a puppy~ she is a silky terrier and she is now 3 months old. Mad cute!! Spent almost of my time with her (also one of the reason why I didn’t have time to post anything). She chewed on almost everything!! Can’t be left unattended if not, I don’t know what will happen to the things in my room. Oh I didn’t mention her name, her name is Yoki!!

Below are some cute pictures of her and meee (｡◕‿◕｡)






Yoki Baby





She is totally my Darling ❤ !! I even created an facebook account for her to keep track of her growing process.. Just like a real baby. ^▽^

Ok that’s my short updates… coming up I will try to review on the products that I have finished using over the months (so that I can throw away the bottles, keeping them for like so long)…. Dust building.

I will also do a review on bellabox that I have received (I subscribed for 2 boxes).

Love,

Winwin & Yoki
