Bonjour Jolie July 2015


          I have signed up for a new monthly subscription! I had tried a single box from Bonjour Jolie at the beginning of the year and it remains the most popular post so it seems you would enjoy more of these type of posts.

          If you have not heard of Bonjour Jolie it is a "A Premium Subscription Box Designed Exclusively for women to Be Pampered During Their Period!" 

Cost: 
Try it box $20
Monthly Subscription: $16 
Shipping: USA $5, Canada $8.50, Worldwide International $14.50
There are also three and six month subscriptions that save you a couple dollars per box for paying upfront.
          Active duty military members and their spouses recieve free shipping to military bases, APO's and FPO's when using the code "MILITARY"

Each Box Containes:
  • up to 25 feminine items - can chose a combination of pads, tampons, liners and even menstrual cups or a sealed box of pads, tampons or menstrual cups
  • hand curated gift
  • specialty bath and body pampering items
  • artisan confections
  • teas and drinks
  • feminine wipes
  • advil
  • a card with some information about the items including price and which snacks are sugar free, vegan or gluten free
          You can also give information about allergies and change your preferences for feminine items. 
          In the USA you can pick your shipment date based on your cycle but all international orders are shipped the first week of the month due to varied international shipping delivery times.

          Let's take a look at the July box:






          Each group of items come in different coloured organza bags or a sealed plastic wrap so your items are not just floating about the box.


          Beyond the necessary feminine items you also get packets of advil, heat pads and feminine wipes. All of these things can be so very helpful during your period, from easing cramps to helping you feel more fresh.



          Another very important part of surviving your period is having the right snacks. This time we have some Fiji Apple Crisps which are freeze dried apples and delicious. The only ingredient is apples so a healthy snack too. We also go a handful of Swedish Fish, some fruit filled sea shell candies and a package of skittles. 



          These little guys are the teas and drinks section of the box and at first I was not sure how good they were going to be but I was blown away. The Pina Colada tasted exactly like you would expect a pina colada to taste. It says to mix them with water but I am sure you could mix them with your alcohol of choice (given you are of age in your country of residence) and they wold still be delicious. 



Bonjour Jolie Organic Body Scrub, $12
           "Made with organic olive oil and jojoba oils, sugar and essential oils. Gently exfoliates your skin while drenching it in nourishing oils. Vegan and gluten free."
          I was so happy to see that the pampering item was a body scrub, easily one of my favourite pampering items. It smells like a tropical vacation after you have spilt your drink on yourself. I have not used it yet but am looking forward to it. To purchase one of your own go to BonjourJolie.com/Shop.




Silver and Stone Starfish Necklace, $14
          "This delicate silver plated necklace lets you keep a peice of the beach with you all year long"
          The gift is this super cute necklace and I am sure I will get some wear out of it.


Value of the box: $35+ 
          That is without the cost of the feminine product, heat pads, Advil or wipes. Clearly this is worth what you pay for it, especially when you consider you do not need to remember to pick up tampons or whatever you need or make any special trips.





Thanks for reading!
