"That" Time of the Month

 We all know that "the" time of the month is tough on us ladies.

Men, look away and read no further unless you want to read about tampons and products I like to use during that time of the month! Ladies...continue reading. 

A couple of months ago, one of my girlfriends shared an article with me. When I read about how toxic the typical tampon is, I was appalled to say the least. I started reading about what organic brands of tampons were out there and decided to reach out to Natracare. I wanted to get the message out there that the tampons we rely on every day can be toxic even if they are not used for eight hours. Read that article and make your own assumptions. 

Anyway, I reached out to them and explained that I was interested in learning more about organic feminine products. They sent me a few samples so I was super excited to try these out and I have to admit they are now my go-to tampon. "The" week is less painful when using these which may seem weird and made up, but it's 100% true. I am not paid or commissioned to speak about any product and I cannot be bought, so when I say that something is amazing I really do mean it! The next product I need during the week is my Mario Badescu facial spray which has aloe, herbs and rosewater. This is the most refreshing, incredible facial spray and I like to spray a few squirts when I'm starting to feel a little sweaty or a little clogged up. It's rejuvenating and makes me feel clean again. The third item that's essential is my Murad Essential C-Cleanser. This is such a great cleanser and the beads burst while I'm cleansing. It's just so refreshing, wakes me up and the scent puts me in a good mood. When I'm having a tough week and I'm just in constant pain, little things like refreshing cleansers and sprays make me feel better. 

What about you? What makes you feel better when it's that time of the month?

Let me know in the comments what products you tend to gravitate towards during your week ;)
