WHY WE RECOMMEND YOU STOP USING TAMPONS AND DISPOSABLE MENSTRUAL PADS

Disposable period products are dangerous for the planet. They can also cause health problems for those who use them. The synthetic material they are made of are not recyclable meaning that they end up in landfill or out in the environment.

It is a good idea for the benefit of the planet and your health (and also for your back pocket) to choose reusable and sustainable alternative.

WHY WE STOCK THIS ORGANIC COTTON HIGH WAISTED MENSTRUAL UNDERWEAR

• It’s a healthy, zero waste and eco-friendly alternative to disposable tampons and period pads.
  
• This high waisted brief is no classic piece of lingerie. It offers safe and effective period protection.
• It draws moisture away: the cotton fabric helps draw the blood towards the absorbent layer. This ensures that the underwear is comfortable and that it dries quickly.
• It’s absorbent: it’s made from a very absorbent bamboo fabric helping this brief to absorb the equivalent of 3-4 tampons or regular period pads. It offers you an average of 8 - 12 hours of freedom.
• It’s waterproof: thanks to its recycled PUL fabric layer, this brief delivers safe protection.
• It’s healthy: all the fabric used to make this high waisted underpant are independently certified (by OEKO-TEX and GOTS). They do not contain pesticides or any other substances that are toxic for your body.
• It's good value for money: It will last you years and it will allow you to say goodbye to using tampons and disposable pads forever. It is a lot better value using this type of personal hygiene products than the single-use variety.
• It’s discreet and comfortable: it is very thin and are hardly noticeable underneath your clothes. It comes up to the belly button and perfectly covers the tummy, waist and hip area.
• It is responsibly manufactured in a small workshop in France that is specialised in making menstrual underwear.
• The left-over fabric waste is collected and used to make upholstery and acoustic and thermal insulation.
