Lily Cup Compact

This is an absolutely fantastic kickstarter! Lily Cup Compact is a pink (a bit unfortunate but maybe that makes it more appealing for girly girls) menstrual cup that folds up and fits into a small make-up sized compact container. If you cannot afford the $33USD it costs to get one off the kickstarter page then I suggest donating  $1+USD to the project even though they are already funded it's great to support something that is beneficial for women and the environment. Well done ladies!

Buzzfeed: Menstrual Cup

This funny post on Buzzfeed is about a menstrual cup being stuck inside of you and what to do.

I love seeing alt products on mainstream sites :)

This is hilarious and gross and amazing! The bag for the cup could be called "vampire shot glass" (someone make those it's a freebie from me). 

Alt Lifestyle

To go with using alt menstrual products, i also live a pretty eco/alt lifestyle. check out my other blog about being gluten-free, vegan, and eco- www.beinggfvegan.com

Back to College!

One of my cousins just started school at UCSB so i went to visit her. It reminded me of my dorm and the dun dun dun SHARED BATHROOMS! My period came a day early- i was supposed to start on saturday (the day i was visiting) but i started friday with a lovely painful preview thursday. True to form i used my sponge thinking my flow wouldnt be too heavy but it was. I forgot about communal bathrooms, my sponge was filled to the max, and i couldnt rinse it because i was with my cousin and she would have freaked out. So i suffered and bled through having to wait till 9:30pm to finally use a single bathroom to clean it. I was at a party and spent the whole time paranoid that the blood on my thong would seep through my pants and get all over the white couch i was sitting on.

Oh college! as much fun as you were i do not miss the lack of privacy when using alt products!
