The Best ‘Monthly’ Subscription Boxes, Period
Whether you curse it or celebrate it, for most women, periods are a monthly occurrence. And yet so many of us end up scrambling to the drugstore panicked and in pain to pick up last minute supplies when our period ‘suddenly’ arrives. But if you’ve had enough of these emergency trips to buy your jumbo packs of maxi pads from an apathetic sales clerk at your local corner store, you’re in luck.
Like a Birchbox but for your period, slews of companies have started subscription box services that deliver your preferred feminine products along with chocolates and other goodies, right to your front door. So instead of an achy back and cramps reminding what time of the month it is, you can be surprised by a package that’s perfectly synced up with your cycle.
Le Parcel’s mission isn’t just to supply you with the basics for shark week survival. From the pretty packaging to the luxury truffles this subscription box pampers you in your time of need.
What You Get:
Combination Of Tampons, Pads & Panty Liners (Up To 25 Items)
Hand Curated Gift
Premium Chocolates
Cost:
$20 per month
The offerings at The Period Store span from the traditional tampons and pads to eco-alternatives like the plastic cup and sponges. Or, if you are one of the women who swears by her Thinx, you can even opt for a box sans the feminine products and just receive a monthly survival kit of painkillers, chocolates, tea and an art print.
What You Get:
Up to 3 Feminine Products
Gourmet Sweets
Limited Edition Print
3 Medicine Packets
2 Tea Bags
Cost:
$15-$10 per month
