Cumprem muito bem a sua função e são de boa qualidade. A única coisa que tenho a apontar é que as costuras não são nada confortáveis e irritam-me a pele… tenho muita pena por isso, porque de resto gosto imenso delas.
Mi ci trovo benissimo, ne ho prese altre due apposta! Ho un ciclo MOLTO abbondante, quindi lo uso, per stare più tranquilla, sopra uno slip con un assorbente che così mi dura un giorno intero, sia la notte che il giorno, e in più con la coppetta.. finalmente non mi macchio più!
Jeg blødte igennem efter kun 2 timer selvom det var heavy trussen - derudover går man hele tiden med en våd følelse.
Muito suaves e confortáveis. Ajustam-se bem ao corpo.
nice soft cotton and not too tight as I've found other period underwear to be
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.“

“Never thought I would be using period underwear, but now I can’t imaging using anything else. Feels almost just like any other underwear. They are very absorbing and easy to rinse.“ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
