What our Customers have to say about their Sea Pearls^™

"I was just dropping you a quick note to tell you how much your sea sponge product has truly changed my life. I have been telling my girlfriends about them and 'educating' my guy friends about sea sponge tampons, TSS, and environmental effects of regular tampons. Before my friend told me about your product I was unable to move the second day of my period. As soon as I started using Sea PearlsÉGOODBYE pain, cramps, and PMS. I can move and get on with my life. I can go without changing my sponge tampon so often (Sea Sponges are amazing Ð they are more absorbent than a tampon), plus I donÕt have to wear a pad as well now. I believe I had TSS during high school and I am weary of using tampons Ð they scare me a bit, but I cannot gush enough about your product. Thank you so much. This has changed my life more than you will ever know!" Anne Hine, Canada

"I cannot believe it took me so long to check into alternatives to "big company" tampons despite my knowledge of TSS [Toxic Shock Syndrome]. It was brought to my attention recently by a woman who is concerned about her daughter entering into womanhood and the choices she should give her. I then thought of my own daughter who in the not-so-distant future will be starting her menses. Good health, healthy living and the environment is crucial to me and my family. I run a home based business of nutritional and herbal supplements and skin care. I had never really checked out alternatives even though I thought I might one day. The one day finally came and I tried another product, but every woman's body is different and I found the other product uncomfortable, hard and just not right for me. I then chose the Jade and Pearl's natural sea sponge tampons. The day after I received them, my cycle started. You know when you know something is right. I found it simple to use. It is soft, extremely comfortable and environmentally, you cannot get much friendlier than this! So easy, so soft and so great! Thanks so much for answering all of my questions! I'll be talking up a storm about the sponges!!" Livia J. Keidan

"Jade and Pearl, where have you been all my life? I just love the sponge. I was a pad/tampon user, I even tried the menstrual cup. Today I'm a Jade and Pearl sponge user. I can't see using anything else but the sponge. You feel so clean and fresh every time." Nicole Burns, Detroit, MI

"I imagine you must hear this all the time, but I cannot believe it has taken me 16 years of using conventional products to hear about this alternative! I am so happy with the sponges!! So easy, and what a great feeling to rinse and reuse without throwing one single product or wrapper into landfill or the waterways!" Nola Pearce, Australia

"I'm a new, but die-hard sponge fan...I'm actually on my second set now, and I will never, may I repeat, never, go back to tampons! While my friends are plugging emergency quarters into the tampon machines in the bathroom, I am blissfully NOT...I love, love the fact that I never have to cram extra tampons into my backpack, only to have them get all gummed up and half out of the wrappers amidst the usual notebooks and pens! No indeed, my little sponges just chill happily in their muslin bag, and all is well in the world...is there a more convenient way to live? Not to mention the money I save, the pollution I no longer create, the lushness of my menstrual blood-swilling plants and the chemicals I no longer jam into my body every month!" Kristen Bain, Women's Outreach Center, University of Oklahoma

"I've always hated using tampons and disposable pads. Finally you have the answer here, I just wish I had found out earlier! I have always had severe period pains and seem not to get them using the sponges. I'm sending packs to my mother and sisters now. Your sponges are better than sliced bread. You are my heroes! You bet I'll be spreading the word. Well done. Hurray!" Viv Kepes

"I am so excited about the Sea Pearls. I have been uncomfortable about wearing tampons for years because they are so unnatural. After having two children, I just don't find tampons comfortable anymore. My first month with the Sea Sponges was wonderful. I felt so good about wearing them and they stayed in place perfectly and were so comfortable! It was impressive how easily they cleaned up. I have a heavy flow and I always wear a pad as backup. The Sponges worked better for me than tampons. My period always lasts for 7 days and that can put a real damper on a woman's sex life. I tried the sponge out for that too, after my flowed slowed up a bit. It was comfortable and clean. My 12 year old has been menstruating since she was ten years old and I have never encouraged her to try tampons. I just didn't feel like it would be good for her body and I explained to her the downside of most tampons. I told her how great these are and I just ordered some for her. I can't tell you how happy I am and how good I feel about the product. I just wish more women new about it. "

"I just wanted to write to tell you of my extreme satisfaction with your Sea Pearl Sea Sponge Tampons. I am nursing my first child and the low estrogen levels due to breastfeeding have caused decreased lubrication and thin vaginal walls. When my menstrual period returned, I couldn't use a tampon because it hurt too much. I don't feel comfortable wearing pads out in public so I decided to find an alternative. I came across Sea Pearls and I must tell you, I will NOT be going back to tampons after my daughter is weaned! Sea Pearls are FANTASTIC! So comfortable and soft you don't even know they are there! I like the environmentally friendly part also:) I just wanted to let you know and hopefully other nursing moms with the same problem will be lucky enough to try them! Thanks for a great product!" Sincerely, Alicia Williams

Hi. I just wanted to drop you a line and thank you for the fast shipping! I just got my sea pearls yesterday, and wouldn't you know it, my period started this morning, LOL! I couldn't wait to try them out. So far so good. They are amazingly comfortable. I previously used the type of tampon without an applicator, so inserting the sea pearls are really not much different technique-wise, but they are way more comfortable to insert! The sponges are so soft and flexible! My flow is normally pretty heavy for the first day or so, and so far the sponge is doing just fine, no leaks! And much less cramping! That is amazing. I've used the Diva cup and the Keeper in the past before as well, and while I feel the cup is a wonderful product, so far I think I much prefer the softness of the sponges. It was sometimes a hassle to get the cup at just the right placement so that it wouldn't leak or sit uncomfortably. Thank you for such a wonderful alternative. I'll definitely be introducing my daughter to these when she comes of age. - Chris K.
