Menstrual Cup B

Mooncup takes a transparent approach to period care by clearly listing every material used, with no hidden fragrances, dyes, petroleum plastics or unnecessary irritants. The brand also avoids Super Absorbent Polymers (SAPs), which many conventional and some eco-labelled period products still use despite their poor biodegradability and potential environmental impact. By choosing carefully selected materials instead of highly absorbent synthetic polymers, Mooncup prioritises both intimate comfort and environmental consideration. This thoughtful approach helps you choose period care made with carefully selected materials and without unnecessary hidden ingredients.

Mooncup was founded in 2002 by Su Hardy after she discovered a reusable menstrual cup while travelling and recognised the need for a more sustainable alternative to disposable period products. She went on to create the world's first medical-grade silicone menstrual cup, helping introduce reusable period care to millions of people. Since then, Mooncup has remained committed to improving menstrual health through thoughtful design, transparency, and long-lasting products that reduce waste. With Mooncup, you can choose reusable period care that delivers reliable protection while supporting a more sustainable lifestyle.

The Mooncup Original is made from soft medical grade silicone (quartz and sandstone), is latex-free and contains no dyes, BPA, PFAS, phthalates, petroleum plastic, bleaches or toxins. It is not the same type of silicone that is used for breast implants.

Using a Mooncup is easy once you’ve got the hang of it. Here’s a quick guide to using a period cup:

Wash your hands and get comfy.

Fold the cup – we love the Punchdown or C-fold.

Insert it – gently separate your labia with one hand, and guide the cup in with the other, aiming it back toward your tailbone (not straight up).

Let it pop open – once it’s in, run a finger around the rim to check it’s fully open and sitting just below the cervix.

When it’s time to empty, gently break the seal and remove.

Tip: It can take a couple of cycles to feel confident. Try practising when you're not on your period - no pressure, no mess!
