Bellabox February 2015 Review – Fresh Beginnings

**Sponsored Box**

Thank goodness for Bellabox’s February Fresh Beginnings box! I am frankly not enjoying the spring weather we are now having. Totally unpredictable and dreary. As I write this, I am dealing with my allergies. This month’s beauty box has certainly sent me a ray of sunshine 🙂

This month’s box focuses on bodycare, skincare, makeup and even has a new tea to sample. I had fun going through my box, especially because it contained mostly new (to me) brands!

LAQA & Co Lip Lube Pencil

I was most excited about this full size lippie in Stranger Danger, a bright pop pink (also because I love pink). Had heard good things from my fellow beauty fanatics and it has peppermint-shea butter to keep lips moisturized. Just what I need! Retails at S$26.50 each.

Curel Moisture Range and UV Protection Milk SPF 50+ PA+++

Curel is Japan’s top brand for sensitive skin and I personally like their lipbalm very much. Curel products contain ceramide which protects skin from dryness that makes it prone to sensitivities. I have received Curel samples in previous boxes and I am glad that this month had different products from the range to try. I received the Makeup cleansing gel, Moisture Lotion III and the UV Protection Milk samples – all very useful and necessary in my skincare routine. The Makeup cleaning gel is S$19.80 for 130g, Moisture Lotion III is S$28.80 for 150ml, UV Protection Milk is S$28.80 for 60ml.

Goodal Repair Plus Anti Wrinkle Cream

Goodal is a new brand to me. I love Korean cosmetics and skincare – who doesn’t want that dewy glowing complexion that all the Korean actress have?! So this was a welcome surprise. This cream contains ceramide and emollients with 7 types of natural seeds and red yeast to “firm, lift and illuminate” skin. Sounds promising! 100ml is S$45.90

Goodal Oil Plus Skin Mist

What a bonus, I got another product from the Goodal range. The product smells of the spa and a quick test showed it to be non greasy and absorbs quickly too. It is a multi-tasker – toner, essence and moisturizer to give instant hydration. This is definitely going into my travel kit. The regular size comes in a spray bottle and retails for S$39.90 for 148ml.

Tealy Summer Green Tea

Tealy has a range of unusual tea flavours not found elsewhere, that are sourced from Japan and Sri Lanka. I like their rooibos teas and was excited to find their new green tea in my box this month! 15 teabags retail at S$17, 30 teabags retail at S$25.

Gly Derm Stretch Mark Cream

I am always happy to discover new body creams because the skin on my body tends to be dry. The generous 125ml sample of Glyderm Stretch Mark Cream in my box helps to reduce stretch marks and improve skin condition. As females and especially mothers, we need all the help we can get with stretch marks! Looking forward to trying this out. 60ml retails for S$14.90 and 125ml is S$23.90.

Skeyndor Body Sculpt (Abdomen Sculpting Emulsion)

Another new brand to me, Skeyndor is a Spanish skincare brand. The body sculpt line is meant to firm and smoothen the waist area, working against cellulite and fats in the abdomen area. It has a nice floral scent that is not too strong. 250ml is S$280.

What I like about Bellabox is that you get some full sized or proper sized samples to try out the product. The value of the box usually exceeds its cost!
