30 Apr Spotlight On: Women’s Personal Care Secrets

One of the biggest challenges green goddesses face is figuring out how to deal with their monthly cycle in a greener, healthier and more natural way. Our latest women’s personal care products check all the right boxes.

Sea Sponges

Woman-Kind Sponges

A surprising but effective and all-natural alternative to ordinary tampons. These soft, ultra-absorbent sponges are nothing new; they’ve been used for centuries and it’s said that Cleopatra herself used sponges. Now Woman-Kind has brought these ancient feminine treasures into the modern world; clean, convenient, 100% natural Mediterranean sea sponges, in a range of sizes.

• Ultra-soft & gentle on delicate vaginal skin
• Comfortable & absorbent
• Won’t dry & abrade the skin as tampons often do
• Easy to clean, dry & care for
• Easy to dispose of at the end of the life-cycle
• Truly green-friendly; 100% biodegradable with no synthetic fibres, bleaches, chlorine or pesticides
• Affordable & can be used multiple times (3-6 cycles), reducing monthly costs
• A sustainably harvested natural resource; sponges break down naturally & will nor pollute the water supply or landfills

Reusable Cotton Pads

Woman-Kind Cotton Pads

These 100% cotton pads are locally handmade using natural cotton fabric in a range of funky colours and patterns.
