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.

Review - Sigma Beauty Brushes & Tools

Hello Pretties!!!

So excited!! I finally received my order from Sigma Beauty and today I am going to review on Sigma Beauty Brushes and their top seller product - Dry'n Shape. I have heard lots of raves about these brushes on blogs and youtube and of cos I checked out their blog because i cannot resist brushes!! I am such a brush FrEaK!! ok! Lets start from the very 1st product I have got from Sigma Beauty. I placed my 1st order quite awhile ago when they are having their black friday promo where shipping is free worldwide that day!! pretty awesome right? So i tot why not try their brushes.. so I started my collection with the Hollywood Glamour Flat Top Retractable Kabuki - Purple . It super cute and handy, most importantly its more hygiene compared to open brushes if you want to carry it in your makeup bag.

The parcel did not take too long to arrive and the packaging was amazing. It comes with an instruction manual of the product you purchase and also nicely packaged. Love it.

☆Pictures of my Lovely Kabuki!☆

Hollywood Glamour Flat Top Retractable Kabuki - Purple

Original Price: $25
Now Selling at : $19 (Great Deal!!)

Look at how cute this brush is? and the bristles are super soft and dense which can give you a good coverage when u use it to apply your liquid foundation. Sorry about the dirty brush cos i have been using it alot almost everytime i apply my liquid foundation... alternating with the F80 - Flat Top Kabuki which i also owned. Both of them have pretty much the same function but i will use the F80 when i am doing my makeup at home and bring the retractable one when i am travelling.

Now.. Lets move on to my recent purchase.. i missed this years black friday promo.. was so sad about it.. due to overwhelm Sigma fans.. i couldnt get into the website and i gave up!! BUT still i so wanted to try the highly raved product Dry'n Shape and eventually i still got it despite i missed the annual awesome promo...

I finally got my Dry'n Shape last week which i have been waiting and waiting for it to arrive so that i can do a review on my Sigma collections...

This Dry'n Shape is a very interesting system where it is designed to completely dry your brushes within 4 to 6 hours and at the same time helps to shape it back. Perfectly good for dense brushes which take ages to dry after cleaning. The Dry'n Shape looks like brush rolls with slots for brushes of different sizes. It provide pressure to bristles to remove water from every fibre at the shorest time. The special fabric used to shape the bristles was designed to accelerate water evaporation which shorten the drying time. I have tried it on my brushes immediately after i receive my Dry'n Shape.

☆Steps on how i wash my brushes☆

1. Pour a small amount of MAC brush cleanser into a small container.

2. Dip dirty brush into the cleanser and swirl it until the brush is cleaned.

3. Gently press the bristles to remove excess water/cleanser, slightly dap dry with a clean towel.

4. Place the damp brushes in the Dry'n Shape using the smallest band the brush can fit in (this is to ensure that your brush bristles can be hold firmly and it also helps in reshaping your brush).

5. Turn the Dry'n Shape upside down ( to prevent the water to backflow to the handle) and leave it to dry for 4-6 hrs and we r done!!

☆After Drying☆

F80 - Flat Top Kabuki - Price: $18

All the brushes are dry within 6 hrs and looks just like new ones. I am really impressed with the speed of drying and the ability to reshape the brushes to almost like brand new. The only down side of this Dry'n Shape is they are not suitable for smaller brushes like eyeshadow brushes, the smallest slot is still too big for my eyeshadow brushes.. but i guess it does not affect how much i love it since small brushes do not take long time to dry so normal drying would be sufficient enough...

Overall : I love all the Sigma Beauty products that I have purchased and will would like to try more of their collections!!
