Nontoxic products for the girls

Lipstick emoji 37 items
Being aware of what we put in and on our bodies is a choice. It's much easier to grab the first box of tampons on the shelf you see - BUT when you take a second to look at the ingredients and you don't know what any of them are… RED FLAG! I've been p...

That time of the month... again.

The lack of studies and research on the female reproductive system is INSANE! Some of these large brands are selling products with sketchy ingredients - and that's getting ALL up in there! Change may be scary, but they have some really affordable opt...

Lena Menstrual Cup

I've tried tons of tampon brands, but cups and discs are the best option in my opinion. No garbage, no lead or arsenic, just wash the cup (they also offer a disc) and keep living life on your period.

I was once terrified to use this, but I will NEVER go back to tampons or a period cup! This is a game changer. No more sketchy ingredient tampons, no more garbage, no more BS - AND you can enjoy MESS FREE period sex!!

I love Wild as a brand and they have amazing nontoxic products. All the ingredients in the lip balm are safe - the only ingredient that's worth noting is Soybean Oil which can cause some irritation if you have a soy allergy.
