The Pixie Kit has ALL THE THINGS you need to use a menstrual cup for the first time - and here's how you them!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Wash your Pixie Cup⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Squirt a little Pixie Cup Wash into your cup and scrub it a little with your fingers, then rinse it under warm water.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Sanitize Your Pixie Cup⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Before you use your cup for the first time, you will want to be sure it is sterilized. Pull out the sterilizing cup from your kit, fill ¾ with water, place your menstrual cup inside and place the lid on top, but don’t snap it on completely, and microwave for three minutes. Your cup will emerge sparkling clean, germ-free, and ready to insert!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Fold your cup⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As your Pixie Cup becomes an old friend, you will find your perfect way to fold. But to start out, we suggest giving the C-FOLD a try. Basically, just fold the cup in half - it will look like a “U” or a “C” shape!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

4. Insert your Pixie Cup⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
RELAX! This is where the Pixie Lube comes in handy! Add a bit to the tip of your cup. With one hand, gently separate your labia. With the other hand, guide the folded Pixie Cup rim-first into your vagina. Once your cup is in a comfortable spot, slide your finger up around the rim of the cup (not the stem) to ensure that it has opened properly. If you feel any folds, gently rotate the cup to create a sealing suction.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That’s it! Your menstrual cup is now in place and is safe to wear for up to 12 hours. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re changing your cup out on the trail, or in a public restroom and can’t wash it, Pixie Wipes are the perfect solution, so we've added a few to our starter kit! Simply wipe the cup off and reinsert (and be sure to give it a good wash when you are back home!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
