Hello! Happy period! This is my menstrual cup from Riel. I love how it comes with a cute little bag that you can store it in. I will show you the size. And I don't know if you've used a menstrual cup before, but it's very, very, very easy. You just have to learn how to put it in. So this is the size of the menstrual cup. And basically, to put it in, you just fold it, right? I do it this way. You fold it like that, you insert, and then once it's in, you just do that. And it suctions, so it's like that. And then when you're ready to take it out, just reverse it. Go in, do that, pull it out. And then that's it. And empty it. And then you clean it in between each time it goes in and out. I will say it's reduced the amount of cramps that I've had on my period. You can keep it in for much longer than a tampon. You don't have to keep changing it. You can keep it in for up to 12 hours. So I use it on my heaviest days so that I don't have to keep going back and changing it.

Today I want to show you guys the Rael reusable menstrual cups. I got this in a size 2. These come in three different sizes. There's a mini, a size 1, and a size 2. I found that the size 2 works best if you have a heavy flow. The box comes with the cup and then a pouch for you to carry it in. This feels like a plasticky waterproof material. The cup is actually quite stiff. I'm not sure how I'm gonna like this because I preferred softer ones. I'm squeezing it right now and you can see just how stiff this cup is. So this might be uncomfortable if you're not used to using cups. I also don't really like how short this stem part right here. I prefer longer ones because it's easier to pull the cup out.

Let's see how many tampon this menstrual cup can hold. One and a half. I usually use five full tampons during heavy flow.

Okay, so you guys are going to have a blast with this review, because when I purchased this, I actually thought it was a cup, because the whole presentation is so amazing that I thought it was a cup, I actually don't own a cup, I want to get one, and I got this first, which I think, the reason why I'm not returning it is because I really love the case. I've always thought that a cup is so personal, and I would want to keep it in a little container, in a little case, in something cute, you know, where I know that my cup is, that nobody's going to touch it, and I thought this was amazing, this is like a little silicone, it has like a little silicone top, and then here's where you put the cup, it's super easy to put it anywhere, and the reason why I said I'm keeping this is because it says it helps prolong the life of your cup, so you should get this if you own a cup.

This has been the most convenient thing for my reusable menstrual cup. Usually, I always lose it somewhere in my purse and it's really gross and dusty. So now I have a cute little container that can hold it safely and keep it clean in my purse. So whenever I get my period, I don't have to like look everywhere for it in my purse.

The cup comes like this, the cup case. There's a cover and then there's this plasticky back. This is a very soft material, so I guess it's good. The bottom of the case is a hard plastic with some holes. I guess it's good if you want it to be breathable, but then if you're throwing it in like a bag or something, you might get dirt into the holes that will touch your cup, which I don't think is a really good idea. But the seal is a really nice seal, like you see that? So this lid will stay in place for sure. This is the Rael menstrual cup in the size two. This is their biggest size. So I'm gonna show you just how well it fits into this little compartment right here. So it fits just like that. I'm shaking it and I can't hear any rattling or anything. So it's like snug in there.
