January Bellabox



After the hype of Christmas and New Years, and the "fun" of my new spending ban, I'd completely forgotten about my subscription boxes coming in the post! I was delighted to wake up and find this month's Bellabox waiting for me!

I had no idea what was in this month's box, so I was very exciting, as for once it was a complete surprise!


The contents of this month's box. Hmm.



Natio BB Cream in Medium

Okay, so firstly, I'm disappointed. I'm not at all a medium, I'm fair skinned. Even fair would probably be too dark, like most other BB creams, so this is a real disappointment and will go to complete waste. Bellabox asks for your beauty profile when you sign up, and I said fair skin. Not medium. Highly disappointed, Bellabox



For Walls Wall Decal sample

Well this is cute, but I have no idea why this was included as it isn't on the information card. I'm not sure what I'll do with this, but, I'm sure I'll find something!


Mode Cosmetics Nail Enamel in Hot Stuff

This is a really pretty colour, and I'm pretty pleased with this! I haven't tried Mode nail polishes before, so it will be good to give this a go. So I'm happy with this, at least.



Face of Australia Purifying Cleansing Wipes

I'm unhappy about getting these, as I got this in the November Lust Have It. (which you can see here) I know that they are different boxes, but they really should pay attention to what the other boxes are offering. This isn't the first time it has happened, and I know I'm not the only Bellabox subscriber that also subscribes to Lust Have It, so it's fairly disappointing.
In saying that though, at least it's a full sized product that will get used, as they are lovely cleansing wipes.


Swisse Body Wash

My boyfriend received this in his Summer Bellobox (you can read about it here), so getting another sample is a little bit disappointing. His Bellobox is under my name, so surely they can see that they have really just sent me two of the same thing, two months in a row? 


You, Me & Everybody Cool It Aloe Vera Gel

This is probably the only product I was truly happy to receive. I've fallen in love with the brand You, Me & Everybody, and this is absolutely perfect for summer! I'll definitely get use out of this!

So, overall I'm pretty unhappy with this month's box. It seemed a bit lazy to me, and it's really disappointing to get double up of products. I'm interested to see what other boxes people have received, as I'm sure I have, yet again, been the recipient of the "bad" box. This one has definitely caused me to reconsider my subscription with them.

If you've received the Bellabox, let me know in the comments and feel free to leave your post link so we can all read what you got in your box!

What did you think of this month's box? Were you as disappointed as I was?
