Upgrade? Upgrade what?
Watch my video if you prefer a talk-through version.
Different box! I thought it's supposed to come in the thick cardboard like in May.
Ahhh! OMG, so pretty. It's not that recycle drawstring pouch!
Let's lift up the cover, and... ...
There you go, large bottle of Kiehl's Calendula Herbal-Extract Toner Alcohol-Free. Look at those stuff inside.
Another Kiehl's product.
Tadaa! It's the Midnight Recovery Concentrate.
I so want to try this! It's sitting on my dresser already. Testing tonight.
Ingredients list looks good. No mineral oil, no mineral oil!
Lightweight, readily-absorbed, restore healthy appearance overnight, smoother, more radiant complexion.
Instructions. Okay, so you must pat this, not rub.
Ah har! Look what we've got next!
A good 5ml of Lancome Genefique.
Ingredients list.
To be honest, I wouldn't expect much when I see Glycerin (a moisturizing agent), Alcohol Denatured (to help prevent acne??? but this is a killer for my dehydrated skin), and Dimethicone (filler, spreading agent). Its only saving grace Sodium Hyaluronate which locks moisture in, and Adenosine which is involved in cell metabolism.
I am excited, and I will try it nevertheless! Hehe.
Blanc Expert Derm-Crystal. And I think I placed the wrong tube with this box. LOL!
Ingredients list.
Hmmm, looks really normal. Still Gycol, Glycerin, Alcohol Denatured. The extracts comes at the back. We shall see.
Biotherm White D-Tox BB Cream.
Ingredients list. So much silicones. Don't break me out. *crosses fingers*
Honestly looks very normal. These are the standard ingredients in any Korean BB Cream.
Biotherm Lai Corporel Anti-drying Body Milk.
Glycerin and olive oil! Really looks not too bad.
Ralph Lauren Romance.
I have already tried the fragrance. Not bad. Very classic scent.
And this one, this one, I've been wanting try since forever!
Cleansing oil is absolutely my way of removing makeup.
Shu Uemura White Efficient Clear Brightening Cleansing Oil.
There, I knew it. Paraffinum Liquidum = Mineral Oil. Hope this does not breaks me out.
Ingredients list.
I have already tested it on today's makeup, and I think it's fine. But a LOT more oily than my holy grail Laneige one. And doesn't emulsifies and wash off as well as Laneige.
whiteefficient clear brightening cleansing oil... ...
And those are all the products! 8 of them! Bumper Harvest!
I am really loving the June box, and I feel like June is always such a beautiful month (because it's my birthday month, and always is school holiday). hahaha. I feel like this is such a great birthday present and birthday surprise for myself. =D
The cards/discount vouchers, which I always throw away.
June Summer Upgrade price points.
Price points.
So goodbye! Hope you've enjoyed this.
Do you like this month's box? Which item would you like to try?

I've been using Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil for years with great results. Tried most of the different ones in the range, but somehow I still prefer the original formula. :)
wow vey nice samples
Hi MisSmall, you're one lucky one! As far as my skin is telling me, all the mineral oil-based cleansing oils and moisturizers and whatnot irritates my skin so much. T_T
Hi Caise, haha, I think more brands want to introduce their product this month, as it's summer, people are in holiday mood. Also, June is my country's sale month, so more people are prepared to spend. I think I need some psychological preparation that the July box will not be anywhere as good as this. =P
Wow, that to me is a really impressive box. I actually like that there's quite a bit of relatively high end skin care in there. I'd definitely be interested in the Kiehl's - especially as their products are so pricey where I live. Romance was one of my favourite fragrances when I was just starting to get into perfume :)
Hi sleepandwater, yes, it's a good month! In all earnest, I am enjoying the Kiehl's Midnight Recovery very much now. But I shall finish the whole sample before giving a verdict. Kiehl's is so expensive here too.
Romance was one of your favorites? That's nice to know! I just bought the latest Ralph Lauren Big Pony for ladies in all 4 flavors (mini size bottles), and I am loving them, so it's really nice to get another Ralph Lauren to try.
I love Romance too!
By the way, I love that your Bellaboxes are not sponsored and you actually made effort to write about the ingredients. Fresh change! I just subscribed to Bella Box. Can't wait for mine to arrive.
I have heard good things about the Kiehl's Midnight Recovery!
Dear Karelessly in Love, thank you. =) I have sensitive skin, so I have to prevent big breakouts by first checking the ingredients. I will never buy anything with an unfriendly ingredients list, so I love samples, especially samples that print the entire list. Hehe.
When it arrives, Enjoy your Bellabox too!
