How to Have an Easier Period in 2025

If you're anything like me, you’re probably tired of dealing with the usual period struggles — the cramps, the leaks, and don’t even get me started on the amount of trash they create that'll sit in landfill for years. Luckily, Viv is here to change the game with toxin-free, sustainable, and super comfy period products. If you’ve been looking for a way to have an easier, more natural period, you've come to the right place!

So, let’s break it down and see why Viv’s products are the real MVPs for your period routine in 2025:

1. Viv Organic Cotton Tampons: Pure Comfort, No Toxins

Let’s be real — conventional tampons can feel like a science experiment inside your body with all those weird chemicals and synthetic materials. Not cute. Viv’s Organic Cotton Tampons, on the other hand, are 100% organic cotton -- that's the only ingredient, which means zero toxins, heavy metals, pesticides, or any of the other nasty stuff you don’t want near your vagina. Plus, they’re super absorbent and gentle on your skin. You won’t even feel them once they’re in, which is pretty much the dream when you're trying to forget about your period altogether.

Pro Tip: Switch to these if you’re trying to level up your self-care game and go for a more natural, safer approach while sticking to tampons.

2. Viv Bamboo Pads & Liners: Soft, Sustainable, and Leak-Free

If tampons aren’t your thing, no worries — Viv’s Bamboo Pads & Liners are here to save the day. These are insanely soft (think: a cloud in your underwear) and made with bamboo fiber that is way more breathable than your standard pad. Bamboo is naturally anti-bacterial and moisture-wicking, which means you’re less likely to deal with irritation or that awkward, sweaty feeling down there. Bamboo is also insanely absorbent, making Viv Pads 4 times more absorbent than a traditional pad.

And let’s talk about sustainability. Bamboo is one of the most eco-friendly materials out there. Viv Pads and liners will break down in just 150 days (compared to traditional pads which are made of 90% plastic and sit in landfills for 800 years). So switching to Viv pads helps reduce your environmental footprint. Less plastic, more planet-friendly vibes🌍

Bonus: Viv Pads come in a variety of sizes: Liners, Winged Day Pads, Double-Winged Night Pads, or a Combo Box, so whether you need something thin for your lighter days or extra absorbency for heavy flow days, you’ve got options!

3. Viv Menstrual Cup: Eco-Friendly, Reusable, and Comfortable

Okay, hear me out — if you haven’t tried a menstrual cup yet, 2025 is the perfect time to jump on the bandwagon. Viv’s Menstrual Cup is reusable, which means less waste (bye-bye, disposable products!) and way less money spent on having a period. Once you get the hang of how to use it (pro tip: the Viv Cup Starter Kit comes with tons of helpful videos and tutorials), it’s honestly a game-changer.

The Viv Menstrual Cup is made from medical-grade silicone, so it’s safe, flexible, comfortable, and feels like nothing once it’s in. Once you go cup, you’ll be amazed at how long it lasts without leaks. Seriously, you can wear it for up to 12 hours at a time — yes, you read that right — so you can go about your day without constantly thinking about your period.

It’s also way better for the environment than disposable products because it can be reused for years. That’s one less thing you need to worry about when you’re trying to live your best life and save the planet at the same time. 🌱

4. Viv Menstrual Disc: The Period Game-Changer You Didn’t Know You Needed

If you’re looking for something a little different but still want a leak-free, long-lasting, reusable period option, the Viv Menstrual Disc is chef’s kiss. This is a circular, flexible disc that sits in under your cervix (don’t worry, it’s comfortable!) and collects your period blood. It doesn't use any suction, so you just pull on the removal tab to take it out. The best part? You can wear it for up to 12 hours — yes, it’s THAT reliable.

The Viv Disc is super low-key in terms of feel. Once it’s in place, you’ll barely even notice it. It’s also easy to remove and clean with the Viv Cup & Disc Wash, and it’s 100% reusable, which makes it a win for both your body and the planet!
