Let’s face it. Periods suck. We bloat, we crave, we breakout. We snarl, we cry, or sometimes both. We cramp, we ache and cuddle our hot water bottles. And that’s all before the main event. There’s a reason many of us call it ‘shark week’. Sure, you might be one of the lucky ones. One of those whose flow comes and goes without any outward sign or display of what’s really going on. But even you, I’m willing to bet, has been caught unawares or unprepared once in awhile. ElleBox Co. is a new Canadian subscription service that aims to make ‘the curse’ more comfortable for all of us ladies by sending a customized box to cover your individual needs every month, delivered five days before ‘Aunt Flo’ is due to arrive.

I love subscription services; I always get stuff I need and usually some really nice surprises. With ElleBox, you can customize not only the type of box but also its contents to make sure you are getting all the ‘time of the month’ supplies you need most. Choose from sizes, absorbencies, brands (including organic!) and products and numbers of each (up to 25 pads and tampons) to suit your personal needs best, plus every box comes with delicious chocolate (a monthly must!) and soothing teas. If you want to add a little more pampering to your stay at ‘the Red Roof Inn’, consider signing up for the Comfort  Box subscription. This fab upgrade has everything the Necessities Box has, plus two or three  hand picked self care gifts to make that week a little more bearable.

But you don’t have to wait to run out to order supplies for your next cycle. At www.elleboxco.com you can order your subscription ahead of time, fill in info regarding date of your last period and cycle length to ensure your ElleBox arrives in time for your time, every time. Irregular? No problem. Have your boxes delivered at the beginning of every month and you’ll be ready for whenever your period is.

The Necessities Box, containing your favourite pads/tampons (total 25), tea and chocolate, sells for $12/month and the Comfort Box, containing your favourite pads/tampons (total 25), tea, chocolate and 2-3 hand curated self care items featuring some amazing local brands and niche products, sells for $30/month. By choosing to pay for 3, 6 or even 12 months in advance, you’ll get your sanity in a box at an even bigger steal of a price. Plus, it’s delivered right to your door so no more frantic personal or spouse trips to the grocery store when you realize you’ve run out.

My Comfort Box was packed with goodies and arrived just in time for the cravings to hit. It contained:

12 Always regular pads
13 Tampax regular tampons
3 Always panty liners
3 Always feminine wipes
4 individually wrapped tea bags – 2 Lemon Ginger, 1 Green Kombucha, 1 Organic PMS Tea
1 Capilano Tea House bag of loose leaf tea in ‘The Sisters’ blend, customized specifically for ElleBox
1 Plenty + Spare bar of Activated Charcoal unscented soap
1 Fable Naturals jar of Rosemary + Mint sugar scrub
3 bars of Milsean Demerara Butter Crunch chocolate, 2 dark, 1 milk

We love that ElleBox Co is supporting local companies, most of your extra hand curated gifts included in the comfort box are locally sourced from Vancouver companies and truly are the height of luxury, something I think we all need when our periods strike. This box included everything I could possibly need, and then some! Just remember, you don’t have to like your period to let ElleBox help you look forward to it.
