Natural Sea Tampons |10pcs| by Poseidon Sponge (Full Set)

First of all, these are amazing! I bought another brand & thought they were good......until I got these. I noticed with the other ones, they were uncomfortable to insert, they weren't nearly as soft. When I first got these, I was like wow, they're kinda big, but once I cleaned them & saw how amazingly soft they are, it's not going to be a problem at all. You can fold/ball the sponge into a tiny ball. I have a heavy flow on the 2nd to 3rd day. I can't rave about these enough. Oh..... & they have a string attached for easy removal. Thank you so much Poseidon! You have an extremely, happy, returning customer!!

Way better than I even imagined!! I've never used sea sponges as tampons before so this was my first experience... I had been reluctant (scared actually) to try them for the longest time because I thought they would be a hassle, semi gross, difficult to take in and out, and maybe just not work. Why would I want to deal with that??? Well... because I'm an earth loving hippie and I like to save money. So I said what the heck, let's give 'em a try......Verdict? Hands down **AMAZING and I'M NEVER LOOKING BACK!** They are wicked easy (and comfortable) to insert and remove, especially with the string. They aren't gross at all, nor are they difficult to maintain. I was amazed at how clean they get with just a simple rinse. If your like me - and often forget to bring tampons when you leave for the day - these got you covered - remove, rinse, put back in. No need to beg for quarters in the ladies room to avert said crisis.I'm also happy I went with this brand... there are some cheaper sponges for sale that I considered but I didn't want to risk having shell fragments/sand/etc. like others have been known for. These arrived clean as a whistle and worry free. If you're on the fence about sea sponge tampons, do yourself a favor and give them a shot! I recommend getting the starter pack to see which sizes/textures you like the most then go from there. You won't regret it!!!

I highly recommend this product. The sponges are highly absorbent and easy to use.These sponges are also easy to clean. After I am finished using the sponge for the day, I soak overnight in warm water with a couple drops of tea tree oil and a little bit of baking soda before rinsing them out and drying them on a rack. When I am finished using the sponge for the week, I soak it overnight in 3/4 cup warm water and 1/4 cup hydrogen peroxide. This keeps the sponges looking good as new!

I haven't been using these long, so my review could change, but for now, I'm very impressed!These are so absorbent and comfortable, and they rinse out completely with ease. I trimmed the cotton strings by ~2". I ordered the multi pack. I haven't tried resizing them yet, but I will probably order medium in the future.Make sure to sanitize them every single day with 3 drops of the included tea tree oil in 1 cup of warm water. Also, try to give them a nourishing baking soda soak (1T-1c warm water) 1x/mo to extend the life.My only complaint is that I wish they came with a mesh bag for drying and a lined linen/muslin one for daily carrying and storage.

I've struggled to find a comfortable natural menstrual solution since having children, and this just might be it. Very comfortable, and the different sizes are great. I haven't had any problems with absorbancy, except I work a very physical job and any sneeze, cough, or heavy lift I did have the "wringing out a sponge effect" if you get what I'm saying. But if you're wearing a panty liner it's not an issue. Make sure your sponges are saturated and wrung out before insertion, and the sizes i found don't really correspond to flow. Even the smallest size was plenty absorbant so I just used what size was comfortable.

These took foreveeerrrr to come. I know that the shipper has mentioned this but still, I wish they were on some kind of faster shipping because they are great. So much better than Jade & Pearl because they come with the string attached, just like a regular tampon. I got the medium size and it came with 2 packets with 3 sponges in each. I did not receive a bottle of tea tree oil (so I took 1 star off for that and the slow shipping) but I always have a bottle on hand. 1 packet was the silk kind and the other was the honeycomb kind. I haven't tried the honeycomb kind, but the silk one was very soft, easy to insert and remove. It holds about a tampons worth. Clean up is easy - I wash them with a natural soap and then soak them in hydrogen peroxide or hot water and tea tree oil. I did not boil them before the first use as the Jade & Pearl instructions had mentioned that this reduces the lifespan of a sponge. I just soaked it in tea tree oil for an hour. I wish they came with a wet/dry bag or some other carrying bag.

These sponges are very clean and are very good quality. They are soft and the size of each sponge is as described. I love how they come with a string threaded through them for easy removal. I used the small sponge and it was so easy to insert and very comfortable. However, after wearing the sponge for about an hour I started to get itchy down there. I must be very sensitive to this material cause none of the other reviewers complain of this. I'm sad my body is reacting to the sponge that way. It was very absorbent and didnt leak at all when it was in. I would still highly recommend these sponges.

They take a while to come but once they do its a lovely package with cute little sea shells and the sponges do need to be boiled but not for very long, I added some of the tea tree oil they provided to soften them up and it worked like a charm.After a couple cycles of use one started coming apart and lost the string, it was no biggy until it ripped in two when I was taking it out to rinse it! I got it out and it's fine now but it was a little alarming.They also smell a little gross when you take them out, that might just be the smell of my blood or something but it's definitely not my favorite smell lolRegardless of its cons I still am never going back to plastic or cotton products ever again and swear by these puppies
