Athena Menstrual Cup Cleaner Wash - Low pH Cleanser for All Menstrual Cups. Hypoallergenic and Natural Soap Nuts for Cleaning that Keeps Your Period Cup Just Like New

I purchased this primarily for my menstrual cups because I wash them every time I empty them and was using a soft handsoap prior to this and realized it probably wasn't best for my body OR the longevity of the cup. Admittedly, I don't use this brand of menstrual cup, but I really like the wash. It's VERY thick and the scent is very light and natural. The soap is SO mild that I've started using it on virtually everything that has to do with my sensitive areas. I wash my cups with it (both under the faucet as well as adding a bit when I boil them), I wash my lady-parts with it in the shower instead of regular body wash since it's more gentle, and I even wash my underwear with this now instead of hand-soap/detergent (I hand wash all of my underwear and normally use dishsoap or handsoap instead of detergent because I don't want to risk irritation for residual harsh detergents). I was surprised to discover this works really great for washing delicates, too!!The bottle IS small for the price, but the soap is also very thick and you don't need much. It's a bit difficult to get a lot of "lather", but that's because it doesn't contain the harsh soaps that create that lather in other products. I've had no irritation or issues washing both the inside and outside of my menstrual cups with this and putting them right back in and it makes cleaning easy.I'm giving it 4.5 Stars, but I really do think the bottle needs to be larger and/or the price needs to be a few dollars lower because it's pretty expensive for a basic, natural soap. However, I'd be likely to keep purchasing this again rather than trying others that are less versatile/more harsh. So I'm very pleased and highly recommend it no matter what brand cups you prefer to use.

Pros:1) Soap nuts!2) Gentle scent that does not overpower!Cons:1) PALM OIL! How I did not see this upon purchase, I don’t know :( Just the presence of palm oil is enough to give it a low rating2) Faulty cap? It does not snap shut. There is not a satisfying “click” to be heard or felt. I’m careful not to tip it over for fear of the contents spilling

I use this wash for just about everything. I wash my cup with it, my face and lady parts. I haven't had a single pimple on my face in MONTHS since using it. I also wash my feet with it, it kills smelly making bacteria and I just love it. It's way more than just for your cup and it's not just for women!! I love that it's organic too! I have super sensitive skin too and no problems with this wash. It keeps me from getting infected hair follicles and keeps the lady parts fresh

I am extremely sensitive in the vaginal area and this wash does not bother me at all!!!! In fact it soothes it when I use it to wash my vagina. It does a great job on washing my menstrual cup and there is never no funny smell. The scent is very light and pleasing to the nose. ALL NATURAL and wonderful.

First let me say that I do love this little soap. It's a little pricey - too much so for me to use it for cleaning my face, body, or really anything but what it's really intended for. For cleaning menstrual cups though, it seems to do a great job and since you only really need a little (I'd agree with another person who said maybe half a teaspoon) it lasts a REALLY long time.

The reason I bought a menstrual cup wash is because the manufacturer of the menstrual cup recommended it to prevent irritation. Menstrual cup washes are supposed to be unscented for that reason. Dishwasher has eucalyptus in it which gives it a pretty strong scent as well as a not so wonderful tingling sensation similar to what you would get from peppermint. Shouldn't have wasted the money. Regular body wash or soap works just fine.

Idk if this is a good thing but I love that the scent stays around even after use. (TMI, sorry) I haven't had any imbalances or increased discharges. The feel of the "Soap" is soft and rinses off completely (or feels that way). I've have been wanting something like for a very long time and I'm very pleased that this product is exactly what I wanted🥰

I like this. I was upset the last time I wanted to buy it again I could t find it. And I just happened to have lost my other wash and was looking and found this again! The consistency seems a little different, like not as thick, but I still like it.

I am so happy to have found this product.I have extremely sensitive skin and previously used the Diva Cup wash, which although 90% effective at cleaning their cup and some locally crafted reusable cloth pads I will say that I have not been able to use their menstrual cup wash as a body wash as suggested on their label. I am completely switching over to the Athena Cup brand and though this is my first period using the product and my period hasn't even finished yet I am so pleased with the product that I had to share an in depth review in case there are women who have suffered as much with sensitive skin as I have (allergies to latex and have had adverse reactions to both natural or traditional as well as 'chemical' products (to the point of keeping Monistat brand feminine anti-itch wipes and Benadryl always on hand and switching to a silicon menstrual cup and reusable cloth pads due to progressively more adverse reactions to popular brands of single use menstrual pads and tampons due to corporate moves to high-absorption-materials).The Athena Cup All Natural Menstrual Cup Wash actually met 100% of the promises listed on their label. I no longer feel self-conscious of a 'feminie odour' from menstrual blood. I have virtually no itching after washing the Athena Menstrual cup 3x a day on average with a heavy flow as well as having been able to use the product as a feminine wash. I find it more effective and 100% true to claims compared with other similar options (including improvisation with a drug store natural tea tree oil shampoo or a '97% natural' feminine wash). For someone who has been plagued with sensitivities and as someone who has used various anti-itch creams during their period throughout their life I finally feel all day relief.Note that you really do not need a lot of product from this small bottle which lathers up minimally though very effectively. I actually like the scent and find it neither too chemically-smelling nor overly 'hippy-store-scented' although the scent lingers in the air after washing in the sink briefly.The only negative so far is that this menstrual cup wash is still rough on the nails/manicure/hands like the Diva Cup Wash so try to wear dish gloves when cleaning the cup but do note that this menstrual cup wash also works very well as an alternative laundry detergent to hand wash reusable cloth pads!

Works well. Smells like eucalyptus quite strongly, so do not recommend if you don't like. No irritation or other issues and have been using for almost two years. My only complaint is the short shelf life. It is a fairly expensive wash and when I buy it new it is only good for about 6-8 months after the date of purchase, at which point I have barely gone through a quarter of the bottle (very little is needed). It feels like an overall waste of product.

I really love this wash, it gets rid of that mid period cup use smell just the irony smell you get. Yes the scent of this wash is strong but its pleasant and the ingredients in it are not harsh at all. You only need about a drop of this wash and it does the job!

So I diluted this product with water to be used in a soap foamer and it work amazing. I was using diva soap and found by the end of my cycle the cup would have an irony smell well not with this product NONE of that irony smell and NO itching I will NEVER buy diva soap again this stuff is amazing

Smells great. I'm super sensitive - contact dermatitis, and nothing. I like it.
