Is there a way to soften my cup?

I recently went on vacation and I misplaced my Lunette cup while there. It was my best friend, absolutely perfect! I'm pretty bummed about it because I can't get a new one as it was a gift. I have a backup, my first ever cup, which is the Saalt cup but it seems to be too firm especially at the rim. It causes bladder pressure that makes me need to pee WAY more often. Is there a way to fix it so that I could use it? I really don't want to resort to pads as they severely irritate my skin and I have zero experience with tampons. Additionally, they're expensive to buy every month. What can I do to soften it?

Yay!! I also have a Lunette which is perfect for me and a backup Saalt that is too firm on my bladder lol, but it does hold a lot more!
But to answer the question in case anyone sees this in the future: silicone is a resilient and non-porous material which makes it great for use inside the vagina, but that also makes it impossible to soften without compromising the integrity and safety of the cup. So it would not really be possible to soften and still be usable.
