How Do I Choose Period Pads?

Looking for reusable sanitary pads and not sure which fabric is best? We understand that making the move to reusable period protection can be a bit overwhelming, but don't worry!

We've put together this handy table so you can see at a glance which of our pads is your perfect fit. Please note that although our Fearless pads are labelled for incontinence use, you can absolutely use them for periods too. All patterned pads have the plain side towards the body.
