I wasn't sure what it was so I googled it. If I got the right thing, then I think you may be best off ordering online and having shipped.

Hi!

Have you use Instead Softcup? It is similar to Keeper and it is more hygenic as it is disposable.

The INSTEAD® Softcup® is a new unique, proven alternative to pads and tampons.

Features
Because the Softcup is worn completely internally and collects flow, it has several unique features beyond those of other period protection products:

Comfortable and safe wear for twice as long as a tampon, up to maximum of 12 hours.
Allows clean sex during a woman’s period because of unique design
Eliminates risks of Toxic Shock Syndrome through non-absorption
Does not cause dryness or irritation due to lack of fibers or chemicals
Prevents odor because flow does not come in contact with air
Expands your attire alternatives as it is not externally exposed or detectable.
What makes INSTEAD® Softcup® so uniquely different from other period protection options?

The INSTEAD® Softcup® has "marathon capacity"
It holds at least twice as much menstrual fluid as a tampon, allowing some women to go at least twice as long between changes on heavy flow days. On a light day, most women find they can wear one INSTEAD® Softcup® the entire day without changing or risk of leakage. Athletes rave about how the INSTEAD® Softcup® carries them through a long marathon or triathlon. Travelers don't leave home without it!.

The INSTEAD® Softcup® is "body friendly and very safe."
Safety is so important when it comes to taking care of your reproductive system. For added peace of mind, you should know that the INSTEAD® Softcup® has had absolutely no reported incidence of Toxic Shock Syndrome in over 10 years!

Safety: The INSTEAD® Softcup® is made entirely of hypoallergenic, non-toxic, non-irritating, non-absorbent materials that have been used for more than 20 years in the health care profession. Cleared by the FDA, it has undergone extensive laboratory and human clinical testing. And, the INSTEAD® Softcup® has NO LATEX, which is good news for all women out there with latex sensitivities!

The INSTEAD® Softcup® is "life friendly."
With INSTEAD® Softcup®, you don't have to change your routine just because you are on your period. The INSTEAD® Softcup® can be worn during all types of physical activity and because it is worn entirely internally, it's so discreet that you can wear anything (including swimsuits) without revealing any trace of your period protection!

The INSTEAD® Softcup® "loves making love!"
Wearing INSTEAD® Softcup® during your period, you and your partner can enjoy "clean sex" and he won't even feel it's there! (Note: the INSTEAD® Softcup® is NOT a contraceptive!)

The INSTEAD® Softcup® "keeps you fresh."
Because INSTEAD® Softcup® holds menstrual fluid entirely internally, it can help eliminate dampness and reduce odor caused when even small amounts of menstrual fluid leak and are exposed to air, which even tampons can't avoid.

Thanks for forwarding to your girlfriends.

After using this softcup, I don't use pads anymore! It's so convenience especially when travelling to other parts of China, excercising, swimming....

No mess, when I am out shopping, no worry about having to change so often. No smell and I don't even feel it is there! It is really like normal days as if I am not having period! Especially during this hot summer.

This stuff is really great! I love it!
