Breathable, stretchy, good quality, easy to wash and is simply just right. Don’t know how well works for heavy periods but with this pair being for light/moderate really is good. I suggest to try them for yourself, especially if you’re not a menstrual cup person.

I´ve been using the other version, medium abservence, for years and it has never licked. My period is never too heavy to justify buying the moderate/heavy ones. I wore them for 1h tops and it licked through my sweat pants to my office chair! I was shocked. The only reason I don't give this ones 1* is because they're just as confortable as the other ones. Now I'll have trust issues using them. I don't know if it was a one time thing or if they're in fact defected.
Experimentei pela primeira vez no meu primeiro dia de período, e correu muito mal, embora sejam muito confortáveis. Saí com elas e duas horas depois tive que regressar porque estava toda suja. Não se tratou só de fugas, a cueca permeabilizou e portanto não cumpre de forma nenhuma o prometido. Sendo permeável, não poderei voltar a usá-las, nem em casa, muitos menos para dormir. Honestamente sinto-me enganada.
I'm using period underwear for a while now, and I'm really happy. This period underwear provides me the confidence to be all day long without worrying about my period.
Besides that, the customer support is amazing!
The layers
No silly questions

As long as your flow allows. Some can wear it for a full day, while others use it as a backup for a cup or tampon. We generally recommend you use them for 8-12 hours. They can also be used overnight and for spotting or discharge. The underwear itself lasts for years.
We recommend that you have 3-4 pairs so you can change into a new pair after wearing them for 8-12 hours. Wash and dry the used ones before reusing.
You can tell by looking at the seams of the gusset. If you see blood at the seams or if the underwear feels wet, this is an indication that you should change them soon. As you start using them, you'll quickly get a sense of your flow and how long you can be leak-free for.
We provide underwear in two levels of absorbency: Moderate and Heavy. The Moderate absorbency option can hold the equivalent of 1-2 tampons worth of fluid (approximately 10ml), while the Heavy absorbency option can hold 3-4 tampons worth. Choose the level that best suits your needs.
Yes. The inner layer (made partly from merino wool) is naturally antibacterial and anti-odour. After use, you rinse out the absorbed blood in cold water and then hand wash cold with a mild detergent or machine wash cold (30°). After hanging to dry, they're ready to be used again.
Layers for comfort and protection
4 layers in such a thin gusset – that's what makes our period underwear functional and comfortable, without being bulky.

"It's truly just underwear with a gusset that absorbs, without it feeling wet to wear. It makes me completely forget that I’m on my period."
