It almost seems silly for something that soaks up menstrual blood to be so pretty, but I'm smitten with these reusable pads from Naturally Hip's shop.

This golden netti pot from Page Pottery is way cooler than my plastic one!

Chasing Clouds' Etsy store has plenty of cool stuff that is reasonably priced, but this seaweed mask was one of the first things that caught my eye.

This headband from Tamar's Etsy shop is classy classy. I certainly don't need it, but I want it.

I wish that I had a birthday every month. I’m ridiculous.

The spout of a Neti Pot is more than slightly phallic.

Thanks to this little guy, my nostrils and the surrounding area have never felt less blocked. Kirby has terrible allergy problems, and he said that he could breathe better than he had in years after using it the first time. In case you’re unfamiliar with Neti Pots, they are remarkably easy to use. You just tilt your head forward and to one side. You pour the warm water, salt, and baking soda solution in the nostril that is facing the ceiling. The solution will eventually come out of the other nostril, along with a disturbing amount of snot (if you’re me and/or lucky). If your nose is completely stopped up, then wait until it isn’t to try it out.  Read the instructions that come with the product; I may have been negligent. I’m not a doctor. Check out your friendly neighborhood Walgreens, or probably anywhere for that matter.
