Product Information

The differences are many! Period cups collects menstrual fluid, while a tampon absorbs it. Period cups like the Lunette are reusable, while tampons are disposable. Non-organic tampons often contain trace amounts of toxic chemicals, including pesticides while the Lunette offers a chemical-free period experience. Once it’s is full, it’s full. The menstrual fluid has to go somewhere and most often, it’ll spill over the sides of your Lunette and leak onto your pad or underwear. My Sanitary Cup is Leaking! Claiming to be the world’s first collapsible menstrual cup, the Intimina lily cup compact can be pulled out to form a traditional funnel shape when needed. It can also be collapsed flat and slot into a protective case, making it easy and discreet for when you’re on the move.
