This washable zero-waste menstrual cup model is very comfortable thanks to its softness and flexibility. Because of its composition, shape, and sturdiness, it’s perfect for young girls and women with especially sensitive bladders. It can easily be worn by women with a retroverted uterus as well as young girls and women with a strong pelvic floor.

• A bit firmer, a bit stiffer, the Louloucup Classic Rose menstrual cup is still flexible enough to fold and insert easily. Washable, reusable, durable, hygienic, easy to use, practical, invisible, reliable, and safe, the Rose Classic model handles light, normal, and heavy menstrual flows with ease.
• Available in two sizes, this model suits all body types and all intimate needs. It can be worn for many hours at a time, giving you great freedom of movement. Thanks to its high capacity, there’s nothing to worry about! It will never overflow.
• The stem is flexible, making it easy to handle. You'll only need to try it once to understand how to use this revolutionary menstrual product.
• Made in France, vegan, and cruelty free, it can be inserted and removed (thanks to the stem) in just a few seconds.

Its firmness is ideal for women who, for example, have a pelvic floor that's a bit less toned than usual—typically, women who have given birth vaginally. 

The Pink Louloucup is also perfect for very active women, swimmers, and athletes. This protection will stay securely in place no matter how much you move. Size S is ideal for light to normal menstrual flow, while size M is suitable for normal to heavy flow. The choice is yours!

Our Loulou menstrual cups:

• are naturally odorless,
• have an ultra-flexible and easy-to-handle stem for easy removal,
• an ultra-soft feel that provides optimal comfort,
• an ultra-comfortable and patented design,
• are available in two sizes,
• have a large capacity to collect blood,
• have unanimously positive reviews,
• are priced low to be accessible to everyone—a perfect purchase to fight period poverty.

Here are all the benefits of the menstrual cup—the period protection that will completely change the way you experience your period:

Zero waste, eco-friendly, good for the planet—the cup is green. Unlike tampons, pantyliners, and sanitary pads, it produces no waste at all.

Good for your health, hypoallergenic, hygienic with a clean and simple composition (only medical-grade silicone), the menstrual cup respects your body, unlike single-use tampons and pads. Just like with the panty or disc, you can trust it 100%.

Inserted at the entrance of your vagina, it’s super comfortable and ultra-soft—you won’t even feel it. It also produces no odor, since the blood isn’t exposed to air. 

We love supporting French-made products! French manufacturing is a sign of quality—you know where it comes from. It’s nice to know you’re using period products made in France and not halfway around the world. At Louloucup, our two super-comfortable cup models, available in two sizes, are made in France.

A small initial purchase that quickly pays for itself and just makes sense! The cup is the most economical washable period protection out there, at a truly affordable price! Our two silicone cup models, available in two sizes, are priced at €28.90.

The menstrual cup can be rinsed with water, cleaned with mild soap, and easily sterilized in the microwave, in a pot, or with one of the sterilizers offered by Louloucup. Just like with period underwear or discs, don’t skip this step. It’s important to thoroughly remove all traces of blood.

Suitable for all menstrual flows, especially very heavy ones, athletes love the cup for its high capacity. Silicone cups can hold a lot, making them perfect for a heavy, intense period flow.

Just like period underwear, the cup can be worn for several hours without needing to be changed or emptied. Thanks to its capacity, it’s very practical and gives you great freedom of movement and activity. You might almost forget your period! However, remember that the cup is still an internal protection, just like a tampon or disc, so it needs to be emptied, cleaned, and changed.

Internal hygienic protection—like tampons or discs, the cup is completely invisible. Inserting it into the vagina ensures maximum discretion.

Just like period underwear, the menstrual cup is a washable, reusable period product that needs proper care. To remove blood stains, carefully wash your silicone cup with water and a mild soap, and avoid highly processed products. Just like discs and period underwear, which are also washable period products, proper care and washing are crucial to extend their lifespan.
