FOAMING CLEANSER

Keeping your cup clean means keeping your vagina safe.  Poor cup hygiene can leave behind bacteria and odor. This could potentially lead to irritation. Poor cup hygiene can also shorten the life of your menstrual cup.

We recommend giving your cup a thorough cleaning with a silicone safe cleanser once per day during your period/active use. This helps to remove surface bacteria and break up gunk to keeps things extra fresh. Our foaming cleanser was developed specifically for silicone, so it won’t break down the silicone, and rinses completely clean. It’s a simple, safe, effective formula that smells SO good. Sensitive to smells? We got you, select our Fragrance-Free option!

How to use:

  • Give your cup a quick rinse
  • Add a pump of Poppins Period Foaming Cleanser
  • Thoroughly lather up your cup
  • Pay attention to the holes at the top of the cup (Pro tip! Fill your cup with water, cover the top with your hand, hold low in the sink and squeeze gently to clean out those holes
  • Rinse thoroughly clean

All set! Ready to re-insert!

INGREDIENTS

Paraben Free | Sulfate Free | Mineral Oil Free | Petrolatum Free | Silicone Free | Vegan

Main Ingredients

  • Water
  • Sodium Laurylglocoside Hydroxypropylsulfonate. This mouthful of a word is a natural alternative to sulfates. It’s sugar based, biodegradable and helps cleanse gently.
  • Cocamidropropyl Betain is coconut derived surfactant that helps thicken the cleanser into a foam that’s easy to spread over your menstrual cup or disc.

1% or less:

  • Benzyl Alcohol is naturally occurring. It’s a solvent and preservative that lengthens the shelf life of your wash. In a product that gets completely rinsed off, like our foaming cleanser, it's safe and body friendly. This isn’t an ingredient you’d want in your creams, as it could be irritating to leave on sensitive skin.
  • Potassium Sorbate is a naturally occurring antimicrobial compound.
  • Propanediol is sustainably extracted from corn sugar and helps improve the shelf life of the wash.
  • Citric Acid helps with pH balance.
  • Sorbitan Oleate Decyl Glucoside Crosspolymer is a safe emulsifier and cleanser.
  • Parfum (not added to Fragrance-Free) is light citrus, foliage blend created with essential oils.
IS SOAP MANDATORY?

Simple answer, nope! It’s not! (Just being honest!) But keeping your cup clean is necessary to keep your vagina safe! Using a foaming cleanser is more thorough at removing surface bacteria and breaking up gunk around inside edges and in the small holes of cups and discs than rinsing with water alone.

You don’t need to use the foaming cleanser everytime you empty your cup (although you certainly can, and many do!) but giving it a thorough cleaning with our Foaming Cleanser at least once every 24 hours will help keep your cup fresh and clean!

If you want to use a different soap, use a mild soap, very low to zero on fragrance, and avoid oil based soaps as they can break down the silicone and shorten the life of your menstrual cup or disc.
