=== Organizing Your Products ===
|
− |
#
|
+ |
#In order to store your products, you should find a box that is opaque, not too eye-catching and that will hide your products discreetly. Here are some storage ideas that you can use::
|
− |
#*
|
+ |
#*Shoeboxes
|
− |
#*
|
+ |
#*Boxes from packages in the mail
|
− |
#*
|
+ |
#*Empty drawers
|
− |
#
|

#You can organize by absorbency. This is completely optional, but you can arrange your period products in terms of their type or absorbency by maybe starting with heavier products at the back or something like that.
|
− |
#
|
+ |
#Now you can add any of the extra things mentioned in the first part. The way you organise these extra things are up to you.
|

#
|

#The makeup bags mentioned earlier were for period kits you can take with you on the go. Just put a few pads, tampons and pantyliners in the makeup bags, enough to last you at least a day. You could also add feminine wipes to freshen up between changes and hand sanitizer to clean your hands before and after changing, though these are optional.
