Bellabox First Impressions – August 2022

Posted on August 23, 2022August 23, 2022 by emmiesbeautylifeadmin

Well, this couldn’t have rocked up at a better time! I do mean that literally. By the time you’ll be reading this, I’ll actually be out of town for work. So I’ve been prepping a ton of content for y’all while I’m away. In any case, I was actually pretty excited for this month’s Bellabox sneak peek and now that it’s here, I can’t wait to get stuck in! Let’s see what I scored!

AUSTRALIS LET’S GET LIT HIGHLIGHTER KIT in HAPPY HOUR – $15.95
This was one of the two hero products up for grabs this month. And I was initially excited for it. Because this is a product that I already have and use all the time. In my opinion, it’s definitely an underrated fave. But then I realised I fucked up. Because there are actually two different versions of this palette. And I picked the one I already had. Oh well, into the giveaway pile that one goes (it’s still sealed up and everything.)
YOU CAN FIND AUSTRALIS AT – Priceline, australiscosmetics.com.au

BASIC BEAUTY BLUSH in BLUSHING BELLA – $16.00US
I’ve had a few products from Basic Beauty in my time now. And as far as quality goes, they are definitely not basic (I had a cream highlight from them that was phenomenal). So, I’ll never turn down a new blush. The shade of this is definitely unique to my collection. It’s a vivid, raspberry pink. And it’s definitely appropriate for spring!

TOP – Happy Hour Palette in Martini
MIDDLE – Happy Hour Palette in Cosmopolitan
BOTTOM – Basic Beauty Blush in Blushing Bella

BIODERMA SEBUM GEL MOUSSANT – $24.99
Guess who has two thumbs and recently used up all of their mini cleansers? This guy! In my defense, I didn’t think I was going anywhere anytime soon. So this little number will be going straight into my travel bag.
YOU CAN FIND BIODERMA AT – Chemist Warehouse, Priceline, Adore Beauty

KLORANE SHAMPOO WITH QUINNE AND ORGANIC EDELWEISS – $19.99
On the flip side, I have more mini shampoos and conditioners than I know what to do with. Especially Klorane shampoo’s and conditioners. This one does intrigue me though as it’s for thinning and strengthening hair. I might take this with me.
YOU CAN FIND KLORANE AT – Chemist Warehouse, Priceline

DU’IT TOUGH HANDS INTENSIVE HAND CREAM – $8.95
My workplace goes through Tough Hands like water! And seeing as we just ran out of our tube of it, this came at the perfect time.
YOU CAN FIND DU’IT AT – Chemist Warehouse, Priceline, Woolworths, Coles

L’OREAL PARIS REVITALIFT RETINOL SERUM – $60.00
And finally, something else I can chuck in the travel bag! I do like doing a retinol once or twice a week,. And I’ve heard good things about this one!
YOU CAN FIND L’OREAL AT – Chemist Warehouse, Priceline, Adore Beauty, Woolworths, Coles

And that is a wrap on my August box! It feels to me that Bellabox knew I was going to be traveling before I did. But I am super stoke by this box. What did you score in your box? Let me know in the comments.

Cheers and love
