In a world where girls are often introduced to unsustainable, single-use sanitary products from the moment they start their periods, it's unbelievable what a difference switching to reusable products can make! Cloth sanitary pads are like so many reusable products - once you've tried them, you'll never want to go back. We use and love these pads ourselves - sometimes on their own, and sometimes as back-ups for menstrual cups (like the OrganiCup). To use, simply pop the pad in your underwear and use the poppers to snap them in place! The wings are made of non-absorbent TPU, which stops any blood getting through to the other side of the pad, so you don't have to worry about leaks. Although CSPs don't stick to your underwear in the same way that disposable pads do, they don't slip or shift during normal, everyday use. Top tip: If you're out for a walk, off on a run or doing any kind of sport that involves more movement than usual, we recommend pulling a second pair of underwear over the top, which will hold the pad securely in place while you exercise! Material: 100% polyester with TPU (thermoplastic laminate). Inner material: 85% viscose (bamboo), 15% polyester Sizes: Light flow: 19 x 5.5 cm. The light flow pad is perfect as a back-up for use with a menstrual cup, or for very light days Regular: 27 x 7 cm. The medium pad is designed for moderate days Heavy: 31 x 7 cm. The heavy pad has 4 layers of absorbent bamboo and is fantastic for night-time, days where you need a lot of absorbency, or postpartum Packs: 3 pack (trial pack): 3 pads (1 x light flow, 1 x regular, 1 x heavy) in a mix of prints 4 pack: 4 pads (all the same size; mix of prints) Care instructions: Pre-washing: Wash the pads a couple of times before using them for the first time - this will increase their absorbency After use: Rinse the pads in cold water to prevent stains (you can also pop them on the floor of the shower while you wash and let the shower do the work for you!). Elskbar's medium wet bags are perfect for storing the pads at home until you get the chance to wash them! Washing: Machine washable up to 60°C. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners Drying: Please air dry the pads. Do not tumble dry or place directly on radiators or heaters, since this could damage the waterproof TPU layer Made in a small factory in China, with a focus on good working conditions and absolutely no child labour
