It could be a bit weird at first, but as I've been saying to people, I'm not scared of a bit of blood, & actually it's probably healthier to treat it as the natural (however unavoidable) thing it is, an stop hiding behind the horrible, throw-away pads most of us are used to.
Anyway, that's my bit, here's a pic -
The ones to the left are the Lunapads, these come from Canada, but I love the design & couldn't pass the opportunity to try them out, despite the shipping .___. (tho I'm super happy they ship to Australia at all ^u^)
However, now that I have some, I may even be able to sew some up myself, maybe...
What I really like about the Lunapads is the cotton strips are interchangeable (you can see the extra strips in the background) You can double them up if you feel the need & there's no need to wash the base every time, great design! (big thumbs up)
These pads are available in a range of colours & patterns too, but I really wanted to get the organic cotton, which is only available in this cream colour. I like the design of the Wemoon pads as well, however having to wash the entire thing after every use could become a bit tedious.
Both companies had quick shipping, I'm really impressed & happy bout that.
I can only really comment on how good they after I've tried them for myself.
I'll post the results in the next few weeks ; )
Ja ne...

they are so pretty! I no longer get a 'Monthly' as I had a hysterectomy 14 years ago but if I did I too would have switched to washable pads.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing !!
Thanks so much Patty! :D
ReplyDeleteIt's awesome to hear that you would be willing to give them a go, most of my friends are creeped out by the idea ': ) I'm going to keep spreading the word though :p
Have a great weekend :3
