ElleBox Review May 2018
ElleBox is a premium Time of the Month Subscription Box which bundles your choice of tampons and pads with hand curated comfort and wellness goods to make that time of the month a little more pleasant – LOVE IT!! They kindly sent us this box to review.
I don’t know about you, but I’m willing to do/try anything to make my time of the month a little more bearable. Let’s be honest, periods suck…..period. So why wouldn’t you want to gift yourself a monthly delivery of period essentials and fun little treats?! Receiving a box of tampons, chocolate, tea and bath products makes my period suck a little less.

This month I am reviewing the Comfort Box and in my opinion it is the only way to go. Here’s a look at the items I received in my May Box…..
The Essentials – Regular Tampons & Pads
Each box is customizable with up to 16 pads and tampons. Their products are made from certified organic cotton, it’s better for your health and the environment. This is one of the features that sets ElleBox apart from other Time of the Month Subscription Boxes.
In my opinion, organic tampons are a must! I will never go back to using regular tampons unless it’s a period emergency. Other than that, it’s strictly organic for this girl.
Element Botanicals Alchemist Cleansing Oil
Transform your skin with this 100% natural, light yet potent serum. Highly concentrated botanicals and extracts deliver intense nourishment and can promote a balanced complexion. Vitamins and antioxidants can help to restore elasticity and clarity, promoting cell renewal and repair. Daily use can heighten your skin’s ability to renew, rejuvenate and combat signs of damage. Beneficial and balancing to all skin types.
I am SUPER excited about this first product. This little bottle of goodness is versatile and effective as a serum, cleansing oil, spot treatment, around eyes and anywhere the skin needs a dose of nourishment. YES!! I love a good multi-tasking product.
And don’t be scared to use it as a cleanser, it will actually change the way you think of cleansing. Like attracts like and the deeply embedded bacteria laden oils on your skin will be gently lifted away, replacing moisture and balancing the sebum production of the skin.
Element Botanicals Deodorant
This amazing deodorant contains a hefty dose of bacteria killing, moisture absorbing naturally effective ingredients to keep you feeling and smelling fresh. Our blend of gentle yet potent botanicals provide antioxidants to protect and soothe the skin while natural baking soda and zinc help to wick away and absorb moisture to leave you feeling fresh and protected. Our antibacterial essential oil blend features a bewitching blend of litsea and vanilla with the addition of real vanilla bean.
I LOVE testing out natural deodorant. I am always on the hunt for a good one. With this particular brand they suggest using it a little different than you would your regular deodorant. They say to use just a little, one swipe should do it. They say that too much will just make a mess of things.
Truffle Pig Chocolate Bar
Get your chocolate fix on! This farm-to-bar chocolate features 47% cacao. Scientists say cacao can improve your mood, be an excellent source of fiber, reduce inflammation, and support heart health! Grab this for a guilt-free snack that satisfies your choco cravings.
If you’ve never experienced a Truffle Pig chocolate bar you are seriously missing out. This is hands down my favourite chocolate. They have all different kinds of flavour combinations and I am obsessed with them all. In a perfect world I would have a box of Truffle Pig chocolate on hand at all times! A BIG box!
Tea Sparrow Tea
Get ready to pull out your favourite mug and point your pinky to the sky. Tea Sparrow is a unique flavour experience that you’ll savour till the last drop. Whether warm or on ice, these tea blends have been curated to give your taste buds a wild ride.
Don’t you just love that ElleBox includes loose leaf tea in every box? There’s nothing more comforting than a big ol’ mug of tea.
ElleBox Review May 2018 – Final Thoughts
The May ElleBox put a smile on my face, just like it always does. I squeal every time I pick this box up from the post office and the ladies there all roll their eyes at me. True story. They think it’s pretty funny that I get so excited about this particular box when I receive hundreds of boxes each month. Why this one they ask? Because it’s exactly what I need to get me through my “special time” each month. Honestly, ElleBox really does make me feel better when the cramps start happening and my mood is down in the dumps. And……I never have to go to the store to buy tampons. That right there is reason enough to subscribe! Wouldn’t you agree?!
