Active - Reference to Awkward Essentials
Awkward Essentials Founder Frances Tang is solving problems endured by many but discussed by few. When she couldn’t find a reliable method for cleaning up after sex, she made one herself. The company’s Dripstick product is a soft sponge for quickly removing excess fluids from the vagina. Made of medical-grade material, it’s safe and easy to use. Tang has done more than create a cool and useful product. She’s helping normalize sexual expression and encouraging people to discuss their experiences.
