This month's theme is LUXE Beauty Travel and I don't think they mean camping!

The first bonus item I received was a Luxe City Guide ~ Paris. I have been to Paris twice and certainly will enjoy reading this guide to bring back all the wonderful memories of my holidays. It is a fantastic guide to all the best shopping, dining and sightseeing available and very handy if you are thinking of travelling to Paris.
YU-BE moisturising skin cream - apparently this has been a cult product in Japan for over 50 years. While I am very excited to try this moisturiser which can be used on your face, lips and body I don't think the teeny tiny sample I received will convince me of how good this cream is. RRP$34.95 70g ~ 3g sample. UPDATE: This is a nice cream, smells like Camphor, not moisturising enough for me, I have very dry skin but have been using this as a lip balm and it works OK.
LA FRESH ECO BEAUTY WIPES - single use beauty wipes, I received make-up remover. RRP$16.50 for 18 wipes. A range of wipes for your face, skin and nails using all natural ingredients.
Egyptian Magic All-purpose skin cream - RRP$49.00, 3ml sample. I already own the full-sized jar of this product, it is fantastic for your nails and hands. Made from Olive oil, Beeswax, Honey, Royal Jelly and Propolis this is a gorgeous skin balm for all your dry skin needs.
Clear Scalp and Hair Beauty Therapy Total Nourishing Care Shampoo and Conditioner. These are great travel-sized samples at 50mls. RRP$5.99 - 200mls.
GATINEAU - Primrose Gel Makeup Remover RRP$28 - 200mls - 50ml sample. Gentle face cleanser that you wash off. Smells nice, I don't usually use washes on my face anymore ( I use face oils) as I find them too drying but I will give this a go. UPDATE: This is very gentle and doesn't leave my skin feeling too tight.
Libra Hotties Heat Patches. RRP$4.99 - 2 per pack. They sell something like this at the camping shop, when activated they keep you warm for up to 8 hours. Just peel & stick on your skin where it hurts. Good for cramps, neck or back pain and if you are feeling cold in your sleeping bag like me!
MODELCO Cheek + Lip tint ~ Rosy Red. RRP$24 - 10ml. 5ml sample tube. This is a very red liquid tint that you can apply to your cheeks or lips, rather like Benetint. Too red for my cheeks but I'll see how I go on the lips.
Nice heavy full box again this month and I am very happy with the selection of products I received. I can use every product I received this month and for me that is good value.
If you would like to try Bellabox for yourself at only $15 per month please go here for more information.

Oh your box looks interesting, especially the gel make-up remover! I hope I get a good box too :P
ReplyDeleteI hope you do too!!

I like this box; nice mix of things. Every box should send only travel size samples. Is the heating pad that gel with a metal that you press so it heats up?
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting for mine! Some nice products in there, although I wish the samples were a bit bigger! I've been browsing around, I hope i'll get the honey soap, still get to get a soap in my boxes! I hope you had a blast at your camping trip ^_^
ReplyDeleteHya Lily, the days were great camping, lots of sun, we hiked, did some orienteering and sat around the fire toasting marshmallows and drinking hot chocolate!! The nights were freezing lol.......
ReplyDeleteI was surprised there were no full-sized products this month but the samples were a pretty good size and excellent for travelling.

Hya Renu, the heating pad is just a patch that you put on and it reacts with your skin and heats up. It is probably just some kind of sports gel, I'll let you know when I try it.
ReplyDeleteI am really happy with the selection of goodies lots of nice things to try.

So glad to hear you were happy with your box, I know some people who definitely weren't. And I'm so jealous that you've been to Paris twice, it's my dream! (I know, not the point of the post, but still!)
ReplyDeleteRebecca it was my dream too to go to Paris and I really hope that your dream comes true and you can visit one day too.

I love the Clean shampoo and conditioners. They make a fantastic hair mask as well, plus an intensive treatment that comes in individual use tubes.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips Suzanne, I have yet to try them but they sound great!
ReplyDeletelooks like a great selection Jac. Yeah mine's out of date... bit dodgy I think! Wasn't it last month the lip glosses were out of date too? My box was 2nd shipment and my gloss didn't have a date on it anywhere!
ReplyDeletethe Egyption Magic sounds awesome, wish I'd got some of that to try, will have to keep an eye out. Where did you purchase yours from? great value this month! I'm looking forward to using my BabyFoot :)
I have often received samples or full-sized products that are out of date or close too. I think companies give away their stuff because they can no longer sell it, bit insulting really, like throwing out the garbage.
ReplyDeleteThe Egyptian Magic is a great product, lasts forever, you can purchase in Oz but it's cheaper overseas, hqhair.com sell it for $37 with free shipping as opposed to the $49 here in Oz.
