What's the difference between these and the cotton ultra pads?
The bamboo minky pads are made of bamboo viscose or charcoal microfleece with a minky outer, being manmade materials they tend to be a little warmer to wear than the cotton pads. The bamboo minky is also slightly thicker and therefore more absorbent than cotton pads, so if your period is on the heavy side, we'd recommend the bamboo minky rather than the cotton.
Bamboo also has a natural antibacterial quality and because it allows your skin to breathe, it can potentially reduce the risk of yeast infections and discomfort!
You can compare the different pads available in the fabric comparison's tab!
I can't get my head around using reusable protection for my period or incontinence control?
Disposable period and incontinence products have a lot of nasty chemicals, dioxins and gels in them to make them more absorbent. The concept may be a bit 'EW' but using cloth pad protection is not only more comfortable, they are SO much more absorbent. The moisture is drawn into the pad leaving you feeling fresher for longer. PLUS, using cloth pads will cost a fraction of what you pay for disposables each month and will reduce the amount sent to sit in landfill each month!

How do I wash my period & pee protection pads?
We recommended our Mucky Box to soak your dirty pads before you put them in the washing for best results. You may want to add some extra pads, our period and pee proof pants stop leaks and oops moments or some reusable intimate wipes for ultimate comfort. Alternatively, take a look at our Cheeky Pants Sanitary Pads kits to save money!
Can putting period blood in the washing machine contaminate my other washing?
An average period is just 30ml to 72ml of blood over the course of 5 days (5-12 teaspoons worth) so there is only a small amount on the pad anyway! For best results, we recommend cold soaking before washing. But even if you put your soiled items in the washing straight away there is NO risk of 'contaminating' anything else in the wash... so chuck em in!
