About the business

Marlow

Marlow is committed to making the uncomfortable, comfortable, starting with the first-ever lubricant and tampon designed to be used together for smoother insertion. Inserting tampons can be an uncomfortable process especially for those who are new to using tampons, for those who have pelvic floor conditions like vaginismus, for those with vaginal dryness, or for those who have a lighter flow especially towards the beginning and end of their cycle. The product consists of 100% organic cotton tampons with a bottle of lubricant engineered to perfectly coat the tampon in one easy, mess-free dip. No one will ever have to insert a dry, uncomfortable tampon again – plus they’re conveniently delivered straight to your door through a subscription model. Beyond the product, the team of female founders is empowering a generation of menstruators to prioritize their menstrual & sexual wellness by sparking conversations around these awkward (but shouldn’t be) topics.
