How to maintain the menstrual swimsuit?
1st step: pre-wash
- Rinse by hand under water at room temperature (15 to 20°C) by gently squeezing the swimsuit. Do not twist it to wring it out.
- Rub it gently with organic soap, do not use a brush.
*do not use black soap, Marseille soap or Aleppo soap.
2nd step: washing
- Add the swimsuit with the rest of the laundry to the washing machine.
- Wash it at 30°C maximum, in a net with preferably an ecological detergent.
- Let it air dry, do not tumble dry.
It is better to avoid the fabric softener, the dryer or the iron which may damage the absorption efficiency.
3ème étape : le séchage
- Une fois votre maillot sorti de la machine c'est la dernière étape pour bien entretenir votre maillot.
- Le laisser sécher à l’air libre, ne pas sécher au sèche-linge.
Dorénavant, vous pouvez réutiliser votre maillot de bain menstruel autant de fois que vous le souhaitez!
When should I use my menstrual swimsuit?
The menstrual swimsuit is ideal for a beach or pool day:
- alone, to prevent menstruation
- alone, on very light flow days (at the very beginning and at the end of menstruation)
- in addition to internal protection such as a menstrual cup or organic tampon.
Depending on your flow, wear the swimsuit and avoid keeping it on for more than 8 hours.
