Jade and Pearl Sea Sponge Tampons are another great reusable, all-natural internal menstrual option from the past. Sustainably harvested, sea sponge tampons are easy to use and easy on the pocketbook. Your sea sponge tampons will last you at least 6 months.
To Use:
Simply moisten or wash out and reinsert every 4 - 6 hours, or as often as you would change a tampon. To clean, simply soak the sponges in vinegar overnight or boil it before and after your cycle; air dry. You may also try one of the methods below for a good disinfecting:
1. A solution of ¼ cup of hydrogen peroxide and ¼ cup of water. This will also re-bleach the sponge if it becomes discolored from use.
2. A solution of a few drops of Tea Tree Oil in a cup of warm water. Tea Tree oil is a very effective germicide and has been proven to inhibit up to 60 strains of bacteria, including S.Aureus. This will also eliminate any odor on your sponge.
3. A solution of 1Tbsp. apple cider vinegar in 1 cup of warm water.
4. A solution of 1 Tbsp. baking soda in one cup of warm water.
5. A solution of 1 Tsp. Colloidal Silver to 1 cup of warm water. There is no pathogenic organism known that is not killed by Colloidal Silver in 6 minutes or less. Its use is also of benefit to women who suffer from recurrent candida (yeast) infections.
Sea sponge tampons are naturally bleached with hydrogen peroxide during the cleaning process. If you find the sponges you receive are too big, simply trim around the perimeter until you reach the desired size.
You get 2 sea sponge tampons and 1 cotton storage bag per package. And remember, shipping is ONLY $3.00 for orders under $20!
