Pink Parcel and bettybox have asked us to find Mumsnetters to test their monthly subscription boxes with their daughters. To take part, you’ll need to be a Mumsnetter who uses femcare products and/or have a daughter using femcare products.

Some information from Pink Parcel and bettybox below:

Delivered to your door monthly on a day of your choosing each box contains over £40 of femcare and beauty products including a luxe curation of cult beauty brands, herbal teas and artisan chocolates. You can select your choice of tampons, pads or a mix of both from all your trusted femcare brands. This super convenient box ensures you’ll never run out of femcare products again.”

Choose from all your favourite femcare brands and receive your monthly box with treats worth up to £30 delivered for free directly to your door. You’ll never have to worry about running out of pads again!”

If selected to take part, you’ll need to give your feedback on a thread on Mumsnet as well as completing a short survey. All who complete the required feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice (from a list).

Haven't had anything yet. Tomorrow is another day though.

HarryStylesismycrack · 03/03/2018 10:38

Hi mumsnet! I’ve received another box this morning addressed to my address but with someone else’s name on. I don’t know if it is the box I was expecting for DD as I haven’t opened it but obviously it isn’t her name either! Let me know what you want me to do ☺️

Kangar00 · 03/03/2018 10:45

Hi,
I have had a Betty box to my address but with the first name Grace and another surname. Assume this is for my daughter.

Anyway, she loves it! I think the concept is much better suited to the younger market. I would buy for my daughter but not for me.

TopBitchoftheWitches · 03/03/2018 10:49

Nothing received here yet either.

HarryStylesismycrack · 03/03/2018 10:57

Sounds like there might have been issues with the BettyBox then as you have the same issue as me kangar00! I’ll just let DD open it.

RoseDog · 03/03/2018 11:00

We've not had either box yet but due to the weather we've not had any post since Tuesday!

PutYourBracesTogether · 03/03/2018 11:03

Not received our boxes yet.

ASDismynormality · 03/03/2018 11:07

Hoping mine will arrive today!

Chimchar · 03/03/2018 11:15

Me and dd we're both chosen...not had anything since the initial email. 🙁

NewTownVelocity · 03/03/2018 11:24

Bettybox received this morning with completely different name on it (perhaps we've got yours HarryStyles?! opened it anyway because packaging, although discreet. Made it obvious what it was.

Not got mine yet...

WingMirrorSpider · 03/03/2018 11:26

We received dd’s Bettybox this morning (with a different name on too).

Haven’t received mine yet.

RoseDog · 03/03/2018 11:26

My daughters initials are A B, someone might get hers...

HarryStylesismycrack · 03/03/2018 11:31

Haha Rose Dog I think I have yours! Frozen Gentlemen’s hairdresser? Is a clue to the name?!

RoseDog · 03/03/2018 11:33

That's just confused me Confused her first name is Aimee?

RoseDog · 03/03/2018 11:35

Ooh I've maybe worked it out! Must be another A B

HarryStylesismycrack · 03/03/2018 11:36

Ha no, first name Anna. I was trying to be cryptic 😂

My daughters initials are JT. Wonder how they managed to muff it up so badly? Merge gone wrong on their mailshot software?!

NeverSurrender · 03/03/2018 11:48

my dd got hers this morning the postman knocked very loudly to deliver it (since it didn't fit through our standard sized letterbox!)
It's got the wrong name on though - Lizzywizzy?

2rainbows56 · 03/03/2018 12:07

Haven't received either of our boxes yet

ChickenDinnerChecky · 03/03/2018 12:08

Received yesterday. There are loads and loads of pads, including nighttime pads. Plus 12 super tampons and some little day time pant liners. I reckon that amount would suit dd but I need the extremely super mega +++ tampons so it would last me about two days!

There is also a gorgeous smelling rose face oil, some chocolates snacks, a face scrub, a rose tea teabag, a VERY bright lipstick which would never suit me or dd, a lip plumper which is ace and a plumping spray. All of which dd wants desperately!

As pp said, it didn’t come quite at the right time but I imagine it would be quite nice to receive at the right time. The products are definitely worth more than they cost but I wouldn’t choose to buy them otherwise.

So a lovely thing to receive but I probably wouldn’t subscribe.

I will be recycling the boxes through junk modelling at my school so they won’t go in the bin (straight away!).

My daughter received hers this morning with a different name ,initially very pleased with it until we discovered there was an item missing 😕

OutsideContextProblem · 03/03/2018 13:01

I’ve received my box, right name and address, and DD’s box, right address wrong name (initials BG). Someone somewhere has scrambled their database but it looks like everyone will get what they’re due.

Justyou · 03/03/2018 13:08

Same here wrong name on dd box

HolyShet · 03/03/2018 13:10

Betty Box for DD arrived today, she's delighted. Also wrong name, right address.

HolyShet · 03/03/2018 13:12

She got hers addressed to: Star Hill-In-Edinburgh

Gizlotsmum · 03/03/2018 13:29

Daughter received her’s wrong name, right address. Didn’t fit through letterbox and one product missing but she liked the box, book and treats. Not ready to use the pads yet but I like the look and feel. I would probably order this as can’t find small pads in any of our local shops
