How to use reusable period pads

With just a few easy steps, you can learn how to use and care for your pads, ensuring they provide comfort and reliable protection for years to come.

Snap it in place

Place the pad on your underwear with the soft cotton side facing up. Secure it by snapping the wings around the underwear.

Stay comfortable

The pad is designed to stay in place, whether you’re walking, sitting or sleeping.

Change regularly

Depending on your flow, change every 4–6 hours during the day, and use a night pad for overnight comfort.

Rinse first

After use, rinse the pad under cold running water to remove blood. Avoid hot water, as it can set stains.

Soak (optional)

You can soak pads in cold water for a few hours or overnight. Adding a little salt or gentle soap helps loosen stains.

Wash gently

Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid bleach or harsh detergents, as they damage the fabric.

Rinse well

Ensure no soap remains, as residue can irritate your skin.

Sun is best

Dry your pads in direct sunlight, as it naturally helps disinfect the pads.

Air dry indoors

If sun isn’t available, dry outdoors under a clean cloth or in a well-ventilated shaded area.

Tip: To be sure your pad is completely dry, gently press the layers between your fingers. If it feels cool or slightly damp, give it more time in the sun or fresh air. Pads should feel warm and crisp-dry before you store or re-use them.

Fold and pack

Once dry, fold your pad and store it in a clean, dry bag or pouch until next use.

On the go

Carry a wet bag (or any small zip pouch) for storing used pads when outside home.
