When I started nookees, my goal was clear - I wanted a period product that was good for my body and the environment. Traditional period products, from tampons to disposable pads, are filled with plastics, chemicals, and unnecessary waste. I knew there had to be a better way. That’s how the nookees click-in system was born: a reusable, plastic-reduced, and comfortable alternative that truly lasts.
But as much as I love nookees, I also know that different moments call for different solutions. While nookees is my go-to for everyday life, I needed something that worked for activities like surfing, swimming, or even long-haul flights. That’s why I decided to add the nookees menstrual disc to our product range - a reusable disc that offers the same eco-friendly benefits while giving even more flexibility for active lifestyles.
Switching to eco-friendly period products isn’t just about personal comfort - it’s about reducing the environmental impact of disposable products. The average person who menstruates will use thousands of tampons and pads in their lifetime, most of which end up in landfills or polluting our oceans. In contrast, a single reusable product, like nookees click-in pads or a menstrual disc, can last for years. That means less waste, fewer chemicals in your body, and a period routine that actually feels good.
One of the biggest misconceptions about reusable period products is that they’re complicated to use. In reality, they’re just different - but once you get the hang of them, they’re easier, more comfortable, and way more sustainable. Whether it’s snapping in a nookees pad for all-day freshness or inserting a menstrual disc for a carefree beach day, these products are designed to make periods hassle-free without harming the planet.
Making the switch to reusable period products isn’t just a trend - it’s a necessary shift toward a healthier, more sustainable future. And with nookees, I’m proud to offer solutions that don’t just work but actually feel good to use. Because an eco-friendly period shouldn’t be a compromise - it should be an upgrade.
