Certainly was an interesting mix in this months BB.
CELLILUX GLACIAL MINERAL GEL ~ CULT ~ 7g sample, RRP$69 for 60g. All the way from Canada is this facial mask that claims to contain negatively charged molecules to draw out positively charged bacteria and impurities from the skin. Interesting sample, I love to mask up once a week so look forward to trying this. UPDATE: I really liked this clay mask, draws out impurities and exfoliates, I loved how my skin looked after using this, no tight dry feeling, definitely a good product.
LASH CARD deluxe sample exclusive to BB. RRP$7.95. I think this helps you to not smudge your mascara around your eye area. It's not a problem I have after many many years of perfecting the technique of applying mascara but I think they could come in handy if you were applying mascara on another person.
INDIO FACIAL SCRUB ~ LUXE ~ 10ml sample, RRP$56 for 50ml. Sea salt scrub to remove dead skin cells. Packed with anti-oxidants and minerals. Sounds good! UPDATE: This is good!! You only need a pea size amount to do your whole face, exfoliates and leaves your skin soft and smooth and there was no tight dry feeling, this is great stuff.
PROPLENISH MARINE COLLAGEN SACHETS ~ NATURAL ~ 3 samples, RRP$49.95 for 30. At one a day a full pack is enough for a month. Claims that by ingesting collagen it will help you achieve healthy skin, hair and nails. You would have to take these for at least three months before you saw any improvement in your skin and nails, even longer with hair as it would only affect new growth. Jury is out on these, I think I would need to find out a heap more information before I even thought about ingesting. My main concern is which ocean, pollution and mercury levels? UPDATE: Marine Collagen is a substance derived from fish scales.
CEDEL DRY CONDITIONER ~ ESSENTIAL ~ 30g sample, RRP$7.99 for 100g. This is mousse, there is nothing dry about it! This is nothing more than a leave-in conditioner. Smells delicious, reminds me of something I just can't put my finger on. I really like it, light-weight formula which left my hair feeling super soft, shiny and my hair smells great!!
SALLY HANSEN MAGNETIC NAIL COLOUR ~ KINETIC COPPER ~ COLOUR ~ full-size, RRP$16.95. Love Sally Hansen and as I have never tried a magnetic nail polish before, excited to use this.

I wanted to show you a swatch of the colour and pattern (it's suppose to be wavy), either this doesn't work on plastic nails or I am really bad at this. I have just painted my nails so I will re-do this photo when I change polish later this week, my apologies for the bad example but.....the colour COPPER is just gorgeous don't ya think?
AVENE MICELLAR LOTION 3 in 1 ~ CULT ~ 25ml sample, RRP$32.95 for 200ml. I use Wotnots pretty much exclusively now to clean my face so not too excited to see this. I was also hoping we had seen the last of Avene for a while sigh....... I still haven't used ALL the other samples yet. Claims to wash, tone and remove make-up, well that's actually 2 in 1 as washing and removing makeup is the same thing right?
Ok that's it for this month. I am quite happy with this box. Lots of interesting new things to peak my curiosity and I certainly look forward to trying some of them. I think this box was excellent value and certainly worth $15. If you would like to subscribe to Bellabox which I personally feel is the better value of the two similiar beauty boxes available (LHI being the other) and also now the cheapest take a look at their website here.
What did you get this month and were you happy with your selection?
