Review: Love these pads, I used them when visiting America and can only get them off desertcart now back in UK. Great for sensitive skin and soft.
Review: I don't normally leave reviews for these types of products due to the variances many people can experience.. but I will try and give you a reason why I tried and now love these! These are now my GO-TO!~ I will start by saying for the majority of my life I used homemade pads due to family history of TSS and heavy bleeding. However, I was lucky to not have heavy bleeding compared to my other family members with cycles. Little did I know that not everyone bled the same as everyone else. (Ignorance) My grandmothers and mothers before me swore up and down that I had to wear super heavy padding to keep all the blood soaked and to reduce smell.. so I lived that way for over 25 years. Recently a boyfriend of mine bought these at the store when I asked him if he had any pads in the house. (He was sweet enough to go grab some.) I mentioned to him I didn't bleed much and that I wanted something called regular. (He bought regular, but I picked up the heavy recently from desertcart - hence this review.) I had never in my life had a more comfortable experience with a pad. I was only exposed to homemade pads that were thick, stinky, uncomfortable, but also wash/reusable. Of course pads were made available to me during my life, but they were very itchy and quite honestly not as comfortable as the homemade ones. Until U by Kotex! I have a common occurrence of blood coming forwards and upwards towards my tummy. My blood does not go towards my butt and everything seems to pool forwards. I found that these pads have a spade shaped design that is a little bigger on one end than the other and its perfect to cover my entire upper pubic area. Pros: - Charcoal is ABSOLUTELY a must now. I can't bring myself to say there is no smell, but there is definitely a FRESHER experience by having this feature. - Regular and Heavy both FEEL the same on. You would think a heavy design would feel thicker? Nope! It's just as thin, but more absorbent. I tend to use 3-5 during my whole cycle of 4-7 days. (Of course that is preference.) - The wings are thin and comfortable, but easily wrapped around most standard cuts I have worn. I do not recommend slim/bikini designs of panties during use. - Cute packaging, but not needed to use. - THIN. THIN. THIN. It's so nice to not feel these ball up in your underwear, but feel protected. - Compact box. - NO LEAKS (yet) on my gusset. I am not ruining pairs of underwear with use due to.. WINGS. - Great from start to finish. (Of cycle/time.) - Great for forward flowing blood. - Decent size, but also I am a taller woman so I may have a "longer" region for it to fit perfectly. Cons: - The value is debatable. They are the most expensive on the shelves, but really work. - The pad can come off the wrapping when you unwrap it. Be careful! I would say take your time to really place this correctly. - The adhesive on the wings is absolutely ruined if you accidentally touch it to its self. (Mostly) - Not a QUICK process to place it on your underwear - however taking your time will be the best course of action and then its SMOOTH from then on.
