We are Evana®,  the medicine brand for heavy periods behind the 'Period Red' lipstick campaign. 

You may be wondering: "Why make-up from a medicine brand?"

Our recent survey found that 56% of people lack confidence naming each phase of the menstrual cycle.

This got us thinking...

Imagine if we knew as much about our menstrual cycles as we do about make-up - where beauty campaigns also empowered us with knowledge about our bodies.

Evana® is here to bring that vision to life.

Menstruation (Days 1-5) 

During menstruation, your body sheds its uterine lining as oestrogen and progesterone dip, meaning energy levels may be lower.
