Lunar Wild First Period Gift Box Review

First Period Gift Boxes are all the rage these days, and we personally love the idea. First menstruation should be celebrated, not hidden away like it’s some dark, dirty secret. Starter kits, like this one from Lunar Wild have a spot on our list of the best period products for teenagers.

Of these first period kids, Lunar Wild is one of the most expensive ones. It’s listed on their website for $125 USD, including shipping in the US (it’s extra for other countries). It’s certainly not cheap, but is it worth it? Let’s find out!

What’s in the Lunar Wild First Period Gift Box Set?

Check out this unboxing video to find out exactly what you’re going to get. Note: the company doesn’t specifically list what’s in the box, so it may vary.

If you don’t want to watch the video (you really should!), here’s a summary:

bath salts

organic disposable pads and tampons
candle

Gladrags organic pantyliners
Saalt Cup

It Seems Expensive!

For what it is, the Lunar Wild First Period Kit is indeed quite expensive. However, it’s not as bad as it initially appears. The Saalt Cup costs around $30, while the reusable pantyliner is around $10. The bracelet (Urban Mala bracelets seem to retail for around $50), and organic tampons and pads are not cheap either.

In total, we’d guess that the actual retail value of the contents is around $100 USD.

What you’re paying for is convenience, and appearances.

Sure, you could go out and buy all this stuff yourself and put it together in a beautiful box for the young girl in your life. But who has time for that?

Or, you could go buy a menstrual cup, pads, tampons, and a few other random things but it certainly wouldn’t be as special.

Looking for some Cheaper Options?

If you’re looking for a cheaper first period starter kit, then you’ll want to consider the following two options:

Anigan First Period Starter Kit

Luna Period Starter Kit

Both of these starter sets are nice, just a lot more basic.

Lunar Wild: Worth it?

A first period is something to be celebrated. If you want to do this in style, then the Lunar Wild First Period Gift Box is probably worth it.

It’s beautiful, and will make the young girl in your life feel excited about her period. It’s also an excellent way to open the conversation.

The kit contains everything you need for your first period, including pads and tampons. In particular, we LOVE that it includes a reusable menstrual cup as well as reusable cloth pad. Nice work Lunar Wild!

Imagine the possibilities if every young girl started using a menstrual cup and reusable menstrual pads when they were in their teens? The world would certainly be a better place!
