- It's called Clean Your Pink.
(laughing)
- Vagina soap is fine.
- Oh yeah, that would be way better, actually.
(upbeat music)
- Hi, I'm Connie.
- And I'm Jasmine.
- And today we are reviewing period subscription boxes.
♪ Ah ♪
- The whole point of like, a period subscription box
is that you're supposed to,
at when around when your period is supposed to come,
they send these packages that include
everything that you need for your period,
and possibly some fun prizes.
- Are you on your period right now?
- No, I just finished, though. - Me too!
We synced.
- Are you more of a tampon user,
or are you like a pad user?
- Tampon all the way.
- You're tampon all the way, I'm pad all the way.
- Oh. - So we really are
the experts for this.
- We really are.
Seasoned professionals.
- So I say we open one.
You ready to open one?
- Yes.
- Okay, here we go.
So this is our first one, this one is called
Rose War Panty Power.
- [Jasmine] Panty Power?
- This is the least expensive of the two
that we're going to be testing out today.
This is around $25.
(gasping) Jas, look what's the first thing!
- Choco pie!
It's a Korean snack.
- Oh, is this really? - Yes.
- Oh, wow. - Oh, yes.
(laughing)
- I'm big, like, with a sweet tooth on my period.
- Me too. - Are you too?
- Yeah. - Yeah, that's,
I want to have snacks.
I want to be, I dunno, I feel like a bear hibernating
in like a puddle of blankets and chocolate, that's my goal.
Okay, here's the next one.
Do you want to open those, Jas?
- [Jasmine] Yes, two underwear.
- Oh, great, so that's the underwear.
What, whoa, those are extra fancy.
- I would never wear those on my period.
- I was gonna say that too.
Especially since I am a pad user,
there's no way that this is gonna work.
- Even as a tampon user, I would not use that.
This, though, is a little more fitting for a period.
You've got that full coverage for your cheeks in the back.
- And honestly, the color can hide
a lot of sins on this one.
That's cute, I like that it's not just like, okay,
we're giving you some basic underwear, too.
They really tried to make them, like, cute,
and they have some like, stuff so it's not feeling like
it's just a chore that you have to
put on your period underwear.
This is the next one.
So this is called, ooh, don't love the title already.
It's called Clean Your Pink.
(laughing)
It's a hygiene wash.
I would just prefer maybe a different title.
- Vagina soap is fine.
- Oh, yeah, that would be way better, actually.
- It is nice that they include this,
because if you are washing your private parts
with normal soap, that is not good.
You should be using these pH balances.
- "More often than not, personal care products,
"even a bar of soap, can throw your acidic pH off.
"Cleanser helps to maintain this crucial balance
"and won't disrupt your precious vaginal microbiome."
Okay, yes, that's what I also call it too,
my precious vaginal microbiome.
(laughing)
I think that's actually great.
I mean, I always feel like on my period,
I just wanna feel normal.
I just wanna feel clean.
That's like such a major goal for me on my period,
so I think this is actually like, really nice.
- Oh my god, more,
more chocolate! - More treats!
- So they sent two chocolate things.
- One for each of us!
Nope, okay.
(laughing)
- Just kidding, I'll share, I'll share.
One for each, one for each.
- Okay, and here's what we were looking for.
They provide both tampons and pads,
and these are ones that, they're 100% organic.
There are 15 total.
This looks like it has, like, a little bit of a panty liner,
and then we've got one, two, three, four, five, six.
I've got six pads.
- There's seven tampons in here,
one for each day of the week.
One thing I will say, maybe together this might be.
- Work. - Barely enough.
But seven tampons for a period,
this is for, like, two days.
- I do like that they, they'll let you walk
the entire week through, basically,
on the different types of pads.
So as the lighter your flow gets
then you can use the lighter products,
I think that's really nice.
- Looks like the green ones are the heavier-duty ones
and then the yellow are the regular.
- Oh, that's really smart, then.
- Yeah.
- Okay, what's this?
You're a vagenius!
- I like that they're compact, so you can just
throw them in your purse if you're going out.
- That's a great idea.
Yeah, this would travel really well.
- Oh yeah.
- I don't know if there's, oh,
and they're all flushable, too, which is awesome.
- Oh, nice.
- I could totally see myself using these
on my period, for sure.
- Oh, me too.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Okay, so this is just like a sun block,
but also it's supposed to, I think,
help you with your acne as well,
and I always break out when I'm on my period.
- Oh my god, I break out the week before,
and then it gets worse the week of,
and then it takes two weeks to recover,
and then that third week it's back
because that's the week before the freakin' period.
It's so annoying.
This is probably nice to throw on maybe
as like a primer under your makeup.
So then it like fights acne, there's SPF,
and then you can put on your foundation and whatnot.
- Yes, that's great, and then I can just cover it all up,
'cause that's what I'm gonna do on my period.
Just cover it all up.
- [Jasmine] What is this?
Inkling Scents.
- Ooh, it's so tiny.
- I think it's a fragrance roll-on.
- Oh, cute, okay.
It's roll-on fragrance.
- Oh, it smells nice.
- Oh, that is nice.
- Oh, this is exactly how I wanna smell.
And these will last you past one week,
so kinda bang for your buck.
- Okay, these are our last thing.
Oh, look at this, how cute this is!
- So cute.
- It's a little face mask, that's so fun.
- Also, when I'm on my period,
I'm always in a treat yo self, like, vibe,
so when I see all this, I'm like, yes please,
thank you, uh-huh.
And then maybe this after.
(laughing)
- [Connie] So overall, what do you think of this one?
- I don't think this is the box where
it has everything you need when you're on your period,
but there are a lot of little things
that make you feel really special
in a week where you feel your worst out of that one month.
- I think it's like, such a nice way to like,
make your period not feel like a chore.
It adds like this kind of special, a special gift is coming,
and not just what Aunt Flo's bringing.
This is the more expensive of the two.
- [Jasmine] It's already bigger.
- [Connie] It is already bigger, and it does look fancier.
- [Jasmine] It looks like Christmas.
- And it's like around the $60 mark.
I also believe that it's supposed to be, like,
they specialize in it being like
your first period type of scenario.
- How do you know to buy this before it comes?
- That's a great question, though.
- 'Cause I know mine hit me and I was like, what the f?
- You wanna do the honors? - Okay.
♪ Ah ♪
- [Both] Ooh!
- Fuzzy.
- We'll pull our first things out.
Okay, so it comes in this, like, pouch.
So this is, what could this be?
Oh, it's just a pad.
(laughing)
I was expecting something so amazing to come out.
It's a pad.
Oh, you know what this is, I bet?
So I bet this is supposed to be like,
this is your first pad we're giving you.
- Oh, that's cute. - Like a sweet thing.
- I wanna know what the fuzzy thing is.
Oh, it's a heart keychain.
I don't understand its purpose, but it's so cute.
The box did say "Have the time of your month,"
which is nice. - That's cute.
- Because usually like, when you are about to
have your period, you're like, oh my god, it's my period.
Like, it's coming.
But when you open this you're like, ooh, gifts.
- Oh, these are underwear.
Ooh, oh, cool!
So these are like period underwear that you can wear
on your period, and they also have this little pocket
where you can actually put liners as well
if you need extra, like, coverage.
- I have never seen this in my life.
- Me either, right?
That's so cool.
- This is probably what you're paying for.
Some more gifts.
- [Connie] We've got, like, some hair ties,
and then we've got a bracelet.
- "Connects all forms of life to Mother Earth
"and the universe."
So you can not only feel connected to yourself,
but you can feel connected to the world, I guess.
- All for $59.99.
Not my favorite, but I get the idea of like
a jewelry item for your period, that could be cute
and something fun as like a special gift.
And these are nice little elastics too.
What's this one, Jas?
- [Jasmine] I think this is lip balm.
Yeah, it's lip balm.
- We also have it looks like hand sanitizer here,
in the unicorn. - Oh, that's cute.
That's cute, I like that.
This you can use past your period.
- We got tissues. - Mm-hm.
- Okay, I guess crying happens on your period?
(laughing)
- When you break down for no reason, you can use these.
- Honestly, I was gonna make fun of them,
and then it's like.
- It's like, oh, it does make sense, that's me.
- I do cry a lot on my period.
You know what, box, you know me better than myself.
- Here you have some cleansing cloths.
- Oh, good, we saw these in the other box too.
I think these are great.
- I actually use this brand.
- Oh, perfect.
- Yeah, I love this brand.
It's great, it smells so good,
and it's just, I just love it.
- Socks, look at these. - Ooh, festive.
- And they are wild. (laughing)
- This matches my emotions when I'm on my period.
- A witch, is that what you're going with?
- Just like all over the place.
Last thing is a little, oh, more pads.
- Okay, so it has more pads in here.
- Yeah, this is nice, you can like, hide your pads.
I know some people feel like embarrassed
to put their feminine hygiene products just in their bag,
and sometimes it comes out or like unfolds,
so this is a cleanly place to put it.
- That's a great idea.
- Yeah, put this in your purse, it's nice and thin.
- [Connie] This definitely is like a first period box.
- [Jasmine] I agree.
- Like, as like a gift that you're giving,
like as a parent or something,
I definitely think that this is a wonderful gift to give
that makes it a little bit less scary
and more of an exciting thing.
- I think if you're not too sold on period underwear,
this is something you can assemble on your own.
And yeah, you can customize it more towards
whoever you're gifting it to.
- This is definitely much more of a gift box.
I would say the other one is a subscription box.
- I agree.
- Some of my favorite products out of the boxes
were like the pH soap, I think that's really good.
And, like you were saying,
useful for after my period is even done.
Just, I like the things that have longevity.
Like I've said, I'm a pad user, so I could definitely
see myself trying out the period underwear.
I think that might be an interesting option for me.
So I think those are probably some of my top products.
So I think there's definitely something in every box
that was interesting and I would definitely
consider looking at period subscription boxes again.
- I think being a realist and like,
looking at the price tag for both those boxes,
that's not something I wanna commit to every month.
- That's for sure.
- But I will say for the first one,
the Rose War Panty Power one,
if I received that every month in a box
with everything I like, would want to treat myself with,
I would be really happy.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- [Producer] Say it three times fast.
- [Both] Rose War Panty Power, Rose War Panty Power,
Rose War Panty Power.
- That was pretty good. - Wow, I did not do too bad.
(laughing)
We're synced, baby!
