Our Story

Meet the woman behind Flo Angel.

Hi, I’m Isabel — founder of Flo Angel.

Flo Angel was born during one of the most difficult seasons of my life.

Like many people during COVID, I suddenly found myself facing uncertainty, financial pressure, and personal health struggles all at once. I had lost my income, lockdown had changed everything overnight, and honestly… I felt completely lost.

I remember spending nearly two weeks lying in bed crying, overwhelmed by fear and uncertainty about what would come next.

But somewhere in the middle of all that uncertainty, I realised something important: there was a gap in the South African market for a menstrual cup that truly felt comfortable, soft, and approachable.

More than a product. A movement.

From the very beginning, Flo Angel was never only about selling menstrual cups.

  • It was about dignity
  • Confidence.
  • Education.
  • And helping young girls stay in school.

Since launching Flo Angel in 2020, we’ve had the privilege of collaborating with schools, NPOs, municipalities, and companies committed to meaningful corporate social responsibility initiatives across South Africa.

Together, we’ve helped distribute over 10,000 Flo Angel menstrual cups to young girls in underserved communities.

But the impact goes far beyond a product.

For many girls, access to reusable period care means:

  • fewer missed school days,
  • greater confidence,
  • reduced financial pressure on families,
  • and the freedom to participate fully in everyday life.

Many of these outreach programs also included menstrual health education sessions — helping break stigma, answer questions, and create safe spaces for honest conversations around women’s health.

Seeing classrooms filled with smiling girls holding their Flo Angel cups has been one of the most emotional and rewarding parts of this journey.

These moments remind us why Flo Angel exists.

Not just to create better period care —but to create lasting impact.

And we’re only getting started.

Freedom to participate fully

A girl should never miss school because of her period.

Yet for many young women across South Africa, access to safe and sustainable menstrual products remains a daily challenge.

That's why Flo Angel continues to work with partners who share our vision of dignity, education, and opportunity for every girl.

If you'd like to be part of that journey, we'd love to connect.
