We know what's in our food, we know what's in our beauty products and we know what's in the food we feed to our pets. But when it comes to our pads and tampons, those products that we put right next to or inside our vagina, many of us don't know what they're made out of.
If you're not buying organic tampons and pads then your period products can contain:
✘ Cotton grown using pesticides
✘ GMO cotton
✘ Wood pulp (Rayon)
✘ Chlorine
✘ Chemical Additives
✘ BPA & BPS
✘ Phthalates
✘ Artificial dyes & fragrances
Think this can't be the pads or tampons you buy? Unless you're buying organic pads and tampons, you can't be sure.
Chlorine is used to bleach and whiten the wood pulp used in non organic period products. Chlorine produces a carcinogen called Dioxin. Dioxin is an endocrine disruptor and has been linked to endometriosis and cancer.
Glad you asked!
We're super transparent, which is easy when your products have 1 or 2 ingredients. Our tampons are made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton.
Our cotton tampons are biodegradable, hypoallergenic, sanitised naturally and chlorine-free.
Plus, we've got more goodies coming - they'll be biodegradable and organic too!
