This, my friends, is the story about how the Lunette Cup broke my heart.
You know when you shop for jeans and you find yourself preferring the brand that equates to you wearing the smallest size? I think they do it for a reason. We’re more likely to shop at The Gap if we wear a size 2 there compared to a size 5 in Levis… Ok, well maybe it’s just me or just a coincidence?
So, I hear about the awesome Lunette Cup… I already use a Diva Cup. I’m thinking, can’t be much different but then I hear that it comes in Sz1 and Sz2 and that unlike the Diva Cup, there’s a chance that even though you’ve birthed babies you could still, possibly, maybe, hopefully, have a Sz1 vagina!
You may think I’m crazy but I really did get my hopes up that I’d discover I had a Sz1 vagina. I’m 34 years old people, I can dream. Oh and I’m an optimist! lol
So I hook up with the awesome Kelly Wels who owns Green Team Enterprises Distribution. She’s a distributor of the Lunette Cup. I agree to review both a Sz1 and Sz2. At this point I’m pretty sure I’m going to have a Sz1 vagina again.
Okay, so fast forward to me getting the Lunette Cups in the mail. I LOVE them and that they come in different colors. I dislike how dingy my Diva Cup has become and I like that the Lunette Cup come in colors. This also makes it less obvious what it is, just in case I leave it on the bathroom counter when we have guests over or whatnot.
So, shark week starts, I learned about calling my cycle “shark week” on Pinterest thank you very much!
I break out the new Lunette Cups and I don’t even bother opening the Sz2. I love the flexibility and I much prefer the stem of the Lunette over the stem on the Diva Cup, it makes removing the cup easier and I find it easier to grab on to.
I do my thing, put in the cup and then it happens, pretty much right away, it starts to leak. It can’t be full already, but I hope it is. It isn’t. Sad face. I have a Sz2 vagina, just as I’d feared.
To all of you who still have a Sz1 vagina, don’t worry, your day will come. #evillaugh
ETA: I forgot to mention. I had no problems with the Sz2. It fit and worked perfectly and I’ve been using it exclusively for “shark week” ever since. A more in depth review and giveaway are coming soon.
