"Firstly, I love that it’s red. It’s a lot more flexible than my old Lunette. And having a case to carry it in that you can also sterilise it in (in under a minute) is a game changer."
Scarlet Period Underwear is designed to fit like normal underwear, and feature a multi-layered leak-proof technology that wicks away moisture, absorbs and contains fluid to keep you dry and protected. The built in leak-proof technology is harder working than disposable pads which means it can safely hold more liquid, and last for years not hours.
Scarlet Period Cups are worn internally like a tampon, but collect, rather than absorb, your menstrual flow. They can be safely worn for up to 8 hours before emptying, and can be used again and again. Click to read more about Period Cups.
When it comes to our periods, every flow is different. Heck, every day is different. Which is why we have a range of absorbency levels to suit. Use this as a guide to get the right fit for your flow, so you'll never stress about leaking on the train again.
Super Light: Holds up to 1 teaspoon, which is just a bit less than 1 regular tampon. Think of it as a new-age panty liner, so it’s great for spotting as well as light leaks and discharge. Try: Invisible Thong
Light: Holds up to 3 teaspoons, which is equal to 2 regular tampons or 1 pad. This is for light days to save you from pesky drips, discharge, and lighter flows. Try: G-String, Bikini Brief in Light or Swim range
Moderate: Holds up to 5 teaspoons, which is equal to 3 regular tampons or 2 pads. Go for this on your moderate dates, or as extra defence on heavy days with our Period Cup. Try: High-Waisted Brief or Bikini Brief in Moderate
Heavy: Holds up to 7 teaspoons, which is around 4 regular tampons or 3 pads. It’s our heavy hitter, making them great for full flow days and overnight. Try: Boyshort or Period Cup
We get it — sizing for bottoms is anything but standardised. Which is why this size guide will help break it down for you. For extra ass-urance, make sure to whip out your trusty measuring tape. (Most likely stashed at the bottom of your junk drawer.)

Stress less, your Scarlet Period Cup CANNOT GET LOST inside your vagina. Sometimes the cup can move higher in the vagina, but don’t panic. Try using your pelvic muscles to push down on the cup to lower it. The force and skill of gravity will bring it down. Gotta love science.
We offer three easy cleaning methods so you can pick and choose what’s right for you:
👉 Wash in warm water and our Cup & Hand Wash.
👉 Wipe with an On-The-Go Cleansing Wipe.
👉 Place face down in it's Steriliser Case and microwave with 5ml of water for 1 minute. Allow to cool before touching.
We recommend storing your Cup in the Steriliser Case when not in use or when you’re on-the-go to keep it clean and protected.
Just a heads up, the Scarlet On-The-Go Cleansing Wipes are intended for cleaning the Period Cup only, and not designed for use on intimate areas. But don't stress, we’ve also created a body wash with the finest ingredients to cleanse and hydrate the body and vulva.
Oh, and if you are confused whether you should be cleansing down south, we have the answer here.
It's made with 100% medical grade silicone, and is free from Plastic, BPA, Rubber and Latex. As you are inserting it internally, always ensure you have clean hands (and of course, start with a clean Cup!).
Remember to always read the label and follow the included instructions for you.
IMPORTANT: Menstrual cups have been associated with Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). TSS is a rare but serious disease that may cause death. Read and keep the provided instructions and information for reference.
