Since receiving my first ever Pink Parcel in September they’ve definitely marketed themselves as a company who really know the way to a girls heart and evidently pull out all the stops by not only delivering your key monthly essentials but an AH-mazing haul of surprises from beauty to lifestyle which will leave you beaming from ear to ear. The *November edition being no exception features another showstopping line up brimmed to the top with everything you could possibly need for an equipped and happy period, it’s impressive and has you covered from the first day to even the last and all the uncanny stuff which happens in between too! It’s a monthly gift that you’ll definitely want to keep and the best bit its affordable and great value for money too. If you need cheering up during that dreaded time of the month then Pink Parcel is definitely great for that.

Pink Parcel is a subscription service for your monthly cycle who send you what you need, right when you need it as well as some lovely treats to brighten up those days of the month. With three dispatch dates to choose from, Pink Parcel literally take care of everything and will ship your box before your period is due. If you’re worried about flows and absorbency’s, they have that covered too as you can choose your preferred brand as well as the type of sanitary items to suit your flow making it completely bespoke to your needs.

1. Period Essentials

No matter what your cycle length is the amount of sanitary items and liners included within the box is impressive. You can also choose between receiving pads or tampons from a good selection of brands.

I was particularly happy to see popular brands on board such as Tampax, Always and Body Form. If you’re anything like me then this really helps avoid last-minute runs to the supermarket! There’s also a useful drawstring pouch filled with pads and liners that you can slip into your handbag.

2. SASS Purifying Cleanser – Full Size 30ml RRP £8.00

With Pink Parcel’s new revamped concept, all subscribers will receive a feminine hygiene product each month and this edition includes a full sized Purifying Cleanser from SASS.

The SASS Purifying Cleanser has been specially created to help you feel fresh throughout the day. Their gentle formula contains special Ecodermine technology that acts as a probiotic to maintain intimate harmony, soothes the skin and helps you be at your best.

3. The Beauty Treats – 6 Items

If you love discovering beauty products then you’ll love this month’s jam packed edition, it impressively covers a good area of beauty with a line up that includes key essentials for everyday use as well some additional treats such a make up and nail varnish.

If you’re prone to headaches/migraines like me then the Anatomicals Oi You Throbhead Headache Relief Balm (Full Size RRP £4.00) is such a handy non-medicinal aid within this month’s line up. Infused with extra virgin olive oil, golden yellow beeswax, peppermint oil, lavender oil, eucalyptus oil, mandarin oil, sandalwood oil, rosehip extract and calendula extract, this tub of wonderfulness promises to quickly soothe and relieve annoying headaches.

Benecos isn’t a brand I’ve come across before but with the addition of their Natural Care Apricot and Elderflower Handcream (Full Size RRP £2.45) and Natural Kajal (Full Size RRP £3.95) inside this month’s box, it’s a great introduction to get to know them that little better.

Eyebrows are often considered the focal point of the face and with the festive period soon upon us the Mad Beauty Brow Kit
 (Full Size) will have them on-trend in no time! With two different shade variations within the palette from a dark brown to more of a medium brown both were a little light for me but nonetheless it’s a handy compact.

These little cuties by Little Ondine (RRP £13.99) are so adorable! Combined together, the two shades are seasonally appropriate for this time of the year. Little Ondine’s nail polishes are vegan friendly and made with natural resin, colourants and water that give a smooth finish whilst hydrating the nails.

Last but not least is a sample sachet (6ml) of Norwegian Formula Nourishing Body Lotion that promises to nourish dry skin leaving it beautifully healthy containing a unique combination of moisturisers as well as Nordic Berry, a Scandinavian superfruit.

4. Tea and Chocolate Treats – 2 items

As well as the beauty line up you can also expect to see a tea bag sachet and bar of chocolate from both emerging brands to well-known brands.

The Cranberry Vanilla Delight Tea sample from the English Tea Shop is just the cutest, the packaging is so adorable!  Infused with a magical blend of super fruits such as cranberries, raspberries it also has the warmth of vanilla and cocoa.  Also inside the box is an Orange Milk Chocolate bar from Cocoba which has been teasing me ever since it arrived – the joys of having to take pictures first! From the first bite to the very last this did not disappoint especially if you’re a fan of chocolate orange.

My Verdict

I think there’s so much to love about this month’s Pink Parcel edition and once again will be a crowd pleaser amongst subscribers. With another jam-packed edition, the November line up covers a good haul of beauty and lifestyle as well as those little extras to ensure you’re fully equipped making it the ultimate survival kit, it really is impressive how many goodies they cram inside their boxes and the delivery is on point too! Whilst this is only my third box, I’ve been really impressed with the consistency each month and in terms of what they’re trying to achieve they’ve really got the concept spot on which is why Pink Parcel effortlessly shines and stands out for me.

If you’re looking for a true treat which spoils you rotten when you need it the most Pink Parcel definitely comes out on top and has you completely covered. It’s a monthly gift that you’ll definitely want to keep and it comes in at such a steal of a price.

I can’t wait to see their next edition, hurry up December!
