U by Kotex Ultra Thins Review

These pads work as they should, and fit like they should. Both myself and my teenage daughter use them and both really like them.

I love that these are unapologetically colourful! Why must everything be white all the time?! I also feel like these have been less synthetically feel to them than cheaper brands which is nice - one must be comfortable!

I usually buy these towards the end of my period as they are more for a light flow rather than when you first get it. I'm super heavy at the beginning so need something a little more protective.

But these are so discreet and comfortable and you don't feel like you are wearing anything especially if you are wearing tight jeans or pants. Don't leave a line if that makes sense.

I love how vibrant they are too - so the marketing team did a good job on these.

U by Kotex has been my go-to brand for years now. The Sport Pads Super Wings and Overnight Long Wing Extra Pads consistently get me through heavy periods, with minimal leakage. I also like is how they don't move or bunch at all.

These stay in place and don't bunch up or separate. They have a good width and I prefer the wings for extra piece of mind. The packaging is in fun colours. My daughter requests these as they're her preference. The night pads are good too to give you even more protection whether it's for bedtime or for a heavier flow. These are light to wear and don't feel bulky.

I feel a bit strange writing this review but feel woman need help in this situation. I’m laying in bed as I was discharged from hospital yesterday (Christmas Day) after a hysterectomy. Ive had Endometriosis since I was 14 and have suffered from massively heavy periods my whole life. In the past year they’ve become so heavy I have to wear 2 Night time pads all the time. U by Kotex gives me the peace of mind I desperately need. Yes they have wings and they’re thin like other brands but my favourite thing is that the cotton (lining) doesn’t bunch up and move. I have quite an active job and if I’m using another brand I find I end up with “bald” patches in the pads and have to change them more than I need to, which when you’re already using 2 pads every time ends up costing heaps per period. This brand honestly doesn’t do it and while they absorb the same amount as other brands and are just as dry this has definitely been a game changer for me. My 15 year old daughter has started requesting these in the shopping too for the same reason. They aren’t always the cheapest on the shelf but if you can I’d definitely recommend spending the extra 50c-$1 as you aren’t having to change them as often. I won’t be needing them anymore but I’m 100% going to keep buying them for my daughter.
