PeriodPacksFreshScentPack The perfect starter kit for any young woman, Period Packs contain feminine hygiene supplies, delicate feminine wipes, a calendar to track her monthly cycle, the Period. book (English and Spanish version available), a stylish carrying case/wristlet, and a variety of fun and feminine gift items to turn puberty into a less daunting and more celebratory milestone. In the Fall of 2010, the journal Pediatrics, published research indicating that approximately 15% of American girls now begin puberty at the tender age of 7. While researchers did not define the exact reasons for the earlier onset of puberty, the study was originally conducted due to possible links to breast cancer. The multi-site study revealed a surprisingly large increase in the number of girls going through puberty between the ages of 7 and 8. “This new medical information, combined with other research showing that girls who reach puberty earlier tend to have lower self-esteem and poor body image, makes it imperative for parents to engage their daughters about puberty in a positive, educational and supportive manner,” said Period Packs’ Chief Maxi Wendy Agudelo. “Our gift boxes are the perfect way to start conversations about puberty, menstruation and hygiene.” For young women on the verge of ‘blossoming’ The “Fresh Scent” Period Pack is a celebratory gift box filled with ‘scented’ feminine hygiene products, and an eclectic mix of deliciously aromatic lip gloss, deodorant, breath mints, scented nail polish (perfect for summer), wipettes, and even a scented pencil. Showcasing fragrances such as baby powder, chocolate, vanilla, and many others, this gift box is perfectly suited for the young lady who likes things to smell good! “Our “Fresh Scent” Period Pack was designed for young ladies who not only adore fragrant products, but who may desire an added layer of comfort knowing that the products they are using, smell wonderful,” said Agudelo. Two Massachusetts Moms Focus on Femininity The “Fresh Scent” Period Pack also highlights a relationship between two Massachusetts ‘mompreneurs,’ Period Packs Sees Value in Organics A growing percentage of the U.S. population is concerned about how the everyday products we consume from grocery store and pharmacy shelves are grown and manufactured. Questions about toxins and carcinogens have fueled debates concerning food and product safety. Some researchers have even suggested that the content of our food and water supply (i.e. hormones), have played a role in the early onset of female menstruation. Organic feminine hygiene products are manufactured without the use of bleach or other chemicals—making them an organic alternative to women interested in a less-processed method of manufacture. With an eye on current research and interest in diversifying its product line, Period Packs also today introduces its “Organic” Period Pack (http://www.periodpacks.com/ Leveraging feminine hygiene products manufactured by Vermont-based Seventh Generation, a company focused exclusively on delivering organic and ‘green products, the “Organic” Period Pack contains organic pads (or tampons) and is packaged in a recyclable gift box with recyclable accents—in support of the growing ‘green’ movement. “Since our goal is to celebrate and educate our clients about available products, Period Packs is committed to helping spread the word about the benefits of organic,” said Agudelo. “It makes sense for us to offer a gift box in line with those values.” Now available, the “Fresh Scent” and “Organic” Period Packs can be purchased at www.periodpacks.com for $42.99 and $44.99, respectively.
