  • I've been using Saalt menstrual cups since 2018. Saalt Cups are comfortable, and environmentally friendly. I can wear my cup for up to 12 hours, then sanitize and put away for my next period. These cups last for 10 years and are an excellent product. I've recently purchased both their leakproof period underwear and their period disc. The Saalt Disc has a higher capacity which means I don't have to empty it as often on my heavy days. The Saalt Wear are a comfortable back up to my cup and disc on my heavy days, and I also love to wear them for incontinence support! I've given away all my disposable pads and tampons and will never look back. Saalt products have completely changed the way I period. I love it that I'm no longer using disposable products and contributing my period waste to landfills and the ocean.

    I would love to see more expansion of the Saalt Wear line! Both in sizes, and in cuts and materials. I really like my Saalt Wear, but I'd love a higher absorbency style as well as a more leisurely style. I'd like to see the Saalt Wear gusset in yoga pants too!

  • Saalt's mission to bring period care out of the dark ages, while fighting period poverty across the world is inspiring. As a certified B Corp, I trust the company's pledge to prioritize the planet's and peoples' well-being in every decision.

  • loved this better than the diva cup because it was a bit more flexible so it was easier to get out. no leaks so far (fingies crossed!).

  • I really enjoy the smaller cup! I love the size and find it to be very comfortable. My only issue is that it's slightly harder to pull out than other brands I've used.

  • I want to start by saying I’m an experienced user, Ive been using cups for around 15 years and in that time I have had several different brands. I never had a bad experience with a cup until I tried Saalt. Cup had a weird smell (despite other cups being odourless). It was advertised as super soft but in reality nowhere as soft as my old up and when I tried it (NOT during period) it caused me horrible cramping pain that lasted for hours after I took it out. Basically I felt like cup was too stiff and caused too much pressure. I have contacted the brand and they couldn’t offer a refund however they offered me to try their disc as a replacement. I then tried the disc and I couldn’t take it out. I read instructions, I watched the videos and I still couldn’t take it out for ages. The edge for hooking the finger was too flimsy! I ended up horribly sore once I was finally done with it. All I can say about Saalt is that it might work for people who prefer stiff cups. However I still don’t think they are the best choice due to the odd chemical smell. Plus, I have tried their cup wash and I don’t find it to be effective. It seems like orange oil masks the bad odours but doesn’t really remove them. I have a more effective cup wash… Extra star for their willingness to replace the product, otherwise my experience was pretty bad and wasteful.

  • Had an issue with sizing, customer service was very helpful and understanding. I bought these for my mom who although is no longer menstruating, struggles with leaks. She really loves them and it has made a difference :) Great company values! They do not use PFAS, known to be bad for the body, which many companies unfortunately use in period underwear.

  • Got these for my teenage daughter when we found out her Thinx undies might have contained PFAS. She has the regular absorbency undies and they work for medium flow without leaks and are thinner than the Thinx. My daughter says they are more comfortable and stretchy than Thinx. She’s been using them for a 2 months and they look like new after multiple washes and don’t smell like the Thinx did after about 3-4 months. I’m buying her a few more pairs for heavier days/overnight. Love the company’s use of renewable cellulose fiber, its ethically produced products, and that it keeps so many pads and tampons out of our system!

  • I absolutely love that their menstrual cups come in two sizes. I had tried menstrual cups before but always found that they would leak due to improper sizing. It wasn't until I tried the regular size from Saalt that I experienced absolutely no leakage. I owe my leak-free days to this brand and I'm so happy about it!

  • LOVE Saalt cups! The packaging makes my heart happy, the wash is light, and the cups are the perfect amount of firm/bendy.

    I'd love to see more from an education and inclusivity standpoint!

  • The Saalt cup is my first and last menstrual cup. I have had the Saalt duo pack for the last 3 years and I love how travel friendly they are and how I never have to worry about running out of menstrual products.

  • I absolutely love the Saalt leak-proof underwear. They are super comfortable and absorbent and not to mention they are actually pretty cute! They are seamless underneath my jeans and have truly changed the period-product game.

  • I tried the Saalt cup as my first menstrual cup and it is so amazing. It is accessible to use and the packaging is very nice. I can't imagine using anything else again.

    N/A! I love everything!

  • I love period cups! They are so much more convenient (you can leave it in overnight!), better for the environment AND better for your wallet because they last for so long. In terms of how the product works, there's nothing I like more about one brand over the other -- to me, if it works, it works, BUT it is a B-corp so that gives them some brownie points to me.

    Not negative feedback for the company, but just as a side note: there definitely can be a bit of a learning curve on how to make a cup work for you when you're used to tampons or pads, so give it a full 2 cycles and look into insertion methods because there are quite a few and some things work better for different people.

  • I have tried a few menstrual cups before finding the Saalt soft cup and I wish I started with the Saalt soft cup! It is comfortable and much easier to use than other cups I've tried.

  • Excellent product that I far prefer to competitors in this market. I love my Saalt Cup, and I like that they're super sustainable and eco-friendly.

  • I have two cups from Saalt and use them every month. I have less cramps when I’m using a cup, so that always a plus.

    I personally would like some more color options. I would also love to see you and ideas that would allow us to clean them on the go easier.

  • The leak proof underwear and soft cup are great products. I appreciated the unboxing experience: the packaging and branding are really beautiful. Saalt also does a great job with educating customers and first-time users of its products. They're effective and comfortable.

    Consider even clearer instructions for how to use the product for first timers, perhaps in the form of digital content.

  • 100% Yes. I invested in a salt cups years ago, and it was honestly life changing. I have saved so much money by not needing to purchase tampons. I recently purchased some of their period panties. They're thinner and more comfortable than some other brands I used. All around positive experience.

  • I bought a menstrual cup on a bit of a whim. I hate tampons, but I thought this would be a better option when I needed that type of product. It is super flexible and comfortable and comes with very helpful instructions.

  • I absolutely love this company. Not only do they make great products but they also donate, educate and empower girls and women throughout the world. I've tried the leak-proof underwear and I don't know how I lived without them. These are a game changer when you have unpredictable periods. High absorbency and the fit is true to size.
