The Science & The Soul
The Science
In an industry where brands are not require to disclose ingredients, Blume is transparent with what’s in their products. All of Blume’s products are all-natural. That means there is no alcohol, SLS, silicone, parabens, sulfates, or artificial ingredients.
Blume believes that self-care products should not only be good for your body, but also good for the earth. Their tampons are biodegradable and hypoallergenic, and the tampon applicators are made of cardboard rather than single-use plastic. And since chemicals in tampons from big brands have been linked to hormonal issues for women, Blume tampons are 100% chemical free and made of 100% premium organic cotton that is not bleached or dyed. As a brand, Blume is climate neutral certified, CertClean certified, EWG verified, and Leaping Bunny certified, which means they are cruelty-free.
The Soul
Research shows that 60% of women say their self esteem plummeted during puberty. That’s why Blume’s mission is to break down the taboos in our society that are normal things like acne, sex education, and periods. From educational content for Gen Z consumers going through puberty, to their “Puberty Do-Over” campaign to help women in their 20s and 30s address the issues they still carry, Blume is looking to install acceptance and self-love in their consumers.
Blume also believes that a woman’s period should never affect her potential. They donate partial proceeds to Days for Girls, an organization that advances menstrual equity, health, and dignity for girls across the world.
