Nixit’s Lube Bundle Makes Period Sex A Breeze

Period sex isn't for everyone, and we totally get that. I have symptoms like cramping, nausea, and migraines that don't lend themselves to feeling in the mood, and that's not even taking into account the red mess it creates. But this year, Nixit wants to make sure that I know having a great orgasm during my period doesn't have to be weird, gross, or uncomfortable. In fact, it doesn't have to be messy at all. The sexual wellness brand is encouraging masturbation positivity all month long (in honor of May Masturbation Month), and that includes during your period week. Because of Nixit's enthusiasm, I am willing to try it...if only I can make it easier or less messy. And according to information about the brand's lube bundle, I totally can.

The newly discounted bundle includes several of the wellness company's best-sellers, like its stunning bottle of lubricant (which I already wrote a rave review for!) as well as its menstrual cup. Unlike most reusable menstrual cups, Nixit's sits right below your cervix to collect blood flow while leaving your vaginal canal free for partner play and penetration. In layman's terms: bloodless period sex. It also doesn't use suction to stay in place and is instead "tucked" behind the pubic bone. It's similar to one-use flexible menstrual discs that also are inserted the same way, but, of course, these can be used again and again — if taken care of, the medical-grade silicon cup can last for years.

According to the product's 5,000+ 5-star reviews, it's "life-changing." Not only do impressed users love how easy it is to insert (even with tilted cervixes!), but it's also comfortable enough to wear for hours at a time and has little to no risk of leakage. One reviewer boasts, "I have never had a leak. Not even during sex!" Which sounds pretty damn good to me.

There is one sexual advantage to periods, however. Blood can act as a natural lubricant, so, once blocked, things can get a little dry. That's where Nixit's lube comes in. The organic, water-based lube requires only a pump or two to keep slick as long as you want and is totally safe to use with your go-to vibrator (or your hand, whichever you prefer). Based on my own experimentation with the Nixit lube, it's definitely on par with R29 shoppers' favorite top-rated lubricants. Plus, Nixit recommends using it to help with menstrual cup insertion, if that's something you need some extra glide for.

Though leaks are an extreme rarity, this bundle also comes with cleansing wipes to pick up stray droplets (or if you need to empty your cup on the go) as well as a foaming wash for the cup, so you can keep it clean once your flow finally stops. The folks at Nixit have truly thought of everything, and I appreciate that they seem to have put as much thought into period masturbation as I have. And I'm especially grateful that includes making sure my May Masturbation Month plans remain undisturbed.

Whether your plans are with a partner, a fling, a hand, or a toy, you can get yours, too, period be damned.
