The modern women deserve feminine products made from natural ingredients. These are effective and are environmentally friendly.
More and more women are becoming aware of the negative impact synthetic products have on their bodies. From hormonal imbalance to PMS to skin sensitivities, the effects of artificial products, pesticides, and unnecessary chemicals are becoming known. This is especially true for feminine hygiene products, which come into intimate contact with our bodies.
At the same time, women expect and deserve comfort, reliability, high performance, and environmental sustainability in producing their products. The savvy shopper knows to look for all these qualities when purchasing products for her most intimate use. The following is a list of products available and things to look for and avoid when buying.
Feminine Hygiene Products
Conventionally produced, commercially available feminine hygiene products may contain chemicals, synthetics, latex, synthetic fragrances, and super absorbents made from petrochemicals. Plastic tampon applicators may be coated in pesticides, made from crude oil, and contain phthalates, a known carcinogen. In addition, these products are made from cotton grown conventionally; that is, they may have used chemical pesticides and fertilizers. This is not only bad for the earth and our water table but also detrimental to your health!
Choose products that are made from certified organic cotton and are chemical and additive free. Choosing organic removes the direct risk associated with residues from pesticides, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers, and fungicides. Pads, panty liners, tampons, nursing and maternity pads are all available in organic cotton. Even better, choose products that are biodegradable and are sourced from ecologically responsible producers. Every day, millions of pads and liners are disposed of by women. These pads and liners are made from crude oil plastic that may pollute the earth forever. Choose wisely to leave a better world for your children.
Personal Lubricants
Women are fortunate that lubricants and other products are now designed with their needs in mind and are safe and effective. Carrageenan, extracted from red seaweed, is an all-natural, water-based, pH-balanced lubricant. It is paraben, silicone, and glycerine-free, odorless, non-sticky, and long-lasting. It might also function as a topical microbicide, blocking viruses such as HPV and herpes.
