I love subscription boxes, I’ve used Graze, Memebox, Glossybox and Birchbox but I was recently contacted about a very unique subscription box that I have never heard of before. The pink parcel delivers tampons every month to your door along with treats to cheer you up.
In the Pink Parcel you receive a small draw string bag with a few tampons in, “for now,” to keep in your bag. You also receive 2 “for later” supply boxes of tampons, there were 26 in total in my pink parcel.
The final box is “for you”, a little something to cheer you up. It isn’t the largest box but it is packed with very thoughtful treats to pick you up on your time of the month. In mine I received –
- Teapigs chocolate flake tea
- Doisy & Dam maca, vanilla and cacao nibs organic dark chocolate
- A voucher for a free glass of bubbly at Cafe Rouge
- Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Colour Maximum Volume Mascara
- Garnier optical effects smoothing perfecting primer
- Witch anti-blemish redness relief moisturiser.
The box costs £5.95 for your first box and £9.99 after with shipping included in both their prices. You can choose tampon brands, absorbencies needed and organise it to arrive 5 days before your cycle begins. Even though this is not a beauty box it is roughly the same price and I received 3 full sized beauty products, which is much better than the tiny samples I’ve started receiving in Birchbox. It made me think this box was brilliant value for money especially as there is no hidden cost in postage like you often find at the checkout. If you are someone who forgets to buy them then this could be really useful or great for a daughter at University as it is really discrete and they also get some goodies!
This looks like such a great idea! I love subscription boxes, especially when they’re a little different like this.

Love the idea! Such a unique box that you’d have thought someone would’ve done before now. I also like the fact that you get a full box of treats as well. This would be something that would really cheer me up as well. Seriously considering subscribing :) thankyou for your review!

This is so cute, I love the idea, and the number of products is so generous! Off I go to try and find myself some of this ‘chocolate flake tea’ now…
This is a really good idea. It’s definitely got all the things a girl needs at the time of the month!
That’s such a great idea! Really unusual and something I would never have thought of but actually it makes so much sense. Every month I get really down (I think periods generally make everyone unhappy) and my boyfriend has to run for cover. This seems like the perfect solution to take the edge off! Definitely considering it… Great review, really useful xx
