Beyond Boiling: Easy & Effective Ways to Clean Your Period Cup

Keeping your period cup clean is an essential part of the period cup routine, but it doesn't have to be a time suck. Here are three easy and effective ways to clean your cup, whatever the situation.

1. Classic Clean: Wash and Go

Sometimes, the simplest solutions are the best. For a quick and thorough cleaning, simply rinse your cup with warm water and our gentle Scarlet Cup & Hand Wash. This fragrance-free cleanser is specially formulated to be gentle on your cup and your skin, leaving it feeling fresh and clean.

2. On-The-Go Refresh: Cleansing Wipes

Let's face it, life can get messy (literally!). If you're out and about and need a quick refresh for your cup, Scarlet On-The-Go Cleansing Wipes are your best friend. These convenient wipes are pre-moistened with a gentle formula that effectively cleanses your cup, allowing you to stay confident and hygienic on the go.

3. Deep Clean: Microwaving Method

For a deeper clean, especially at the end of your period, you can microwave your cup using the Scarlet Steriliser Case. Simply place your cup in the case, fill it with water, and microwave it for one minute on high. Allow the cup and case to cool completely before touching. This method is a convenient and effective way to ensure your cup is thoroughly sanitised for the next cycle.

Remember, no matter which cleaning method you choose, always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after handling your cup. Additionally, empty and rinse your cup regularly throughout the day, depending on your flow.
